App Store redemption code error April 2015
I purchased Mountain Lion on apple.com yesterday in order to update OS X on aMacbook Pro Mid 2012 non retina that is running Lion 10.7.5.
After waiting overnight I finally received the redemption code this afternoon and when I tried to redeem in the app store I keep getting the following
error messages "Code redemption is temporarily unavailable. Try again later." and "This item is being modified. Please try
again later." I even tried checking to see if it would work on another mac running Mavericks and it had the same error. I spoke to customer support
at apple and while they were all very nice their final answer was "wait a while and see what happens" < "SERIOUSLY ?" It's been over six hours
since I first tried this and there has been no change. Also FYI, I cannot use Mavericks or Yosemite yet because of a hardware/software compatibility
issue so don't go there. Thanks.
