[QUOTE="kershawh, post: 1530916, member: 239505"] I also tried a new install of mountain lion. It told me that the recovery HD was locked so I tried Mac HD install. I was then directed to sign in to download from the app store I was asked for Apple ID and Password and as I have only had the computer for a couple of weeks (bought it second hand on ebay already had mountain lion installed) I wasn't sure what to enter I went into change password and Apple ID and changed both. They were verified by email from Apple. When I entered them into the app store download boxes it stated that I hadn't used these before and wouldn't let me go any further. I feel the urge to get the large hammer out now. I would really appreciate any help you could provide. [/QUOTE]
