Hi there, I installed Mountain Lion, yet in the App store it disply 'download'. Should it not display 'installed or downloaded' like other Apps?

    Are you sure it DL'd and installed? Check Apple menu item, About this Mac, and report the OS info.

    I have this behavior as well, and believe it's normal.

     

    I have a MacBook Air mid-2012.  It came loaded with Lion, which also appears on my App Store purchases with "Download".  Now that I've successfully installed Mountain Lion, it appears the same way.

     

    That appearance for Operating Systems is different thatn that for applications.  My iLife applications show up as "Installed".
