[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1338206, member: 42497"] If you purchased Lion from the App Store, go back in and hold down the Option key and hit Purchases. Lion will come up and click on the icon to download. You do mention a late 2011 MacBook - did it come with Lion or did you actually purchase from the App Store? If it came with Lion installed, boot and hold down the Option key to get access to the Recovery drive. Another option if to tale it along to the Mac store and ask to have Lion installed on the drive, or purchase a USB thumb drive from Apple with Lion installed. [/QUOTE]
