[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1438710, member: 38864"] Since she was running Lion on it already, you should be able to sign in to the Mac App Store with the iTunes account she used to buy Lion with and re-download it. Just click on the [I]Purchases[/I] menu item up top. It should still be in the list. EDIT: that may not be so actually. A more recent article than the one I first referenced says you can find it by holding down the OPTION key before clicking on the [I]Purchases[/I] menu. I just tried it myself and it didn't appear though that may be either because I'm on Mountain Lion or maybe I hid the purchase since I had a backup and now no reason to downgrade (I think I hid it, can't recall for sure).
