    Snow Leopard is not available for download, you have to purchase the DVD.

    Would you make a screen shot so people can see what you are seeing at the utilities screen? Make sure you cover any personal information using Preview. Post the screen shot in a Reply using the camera icon or you can drag the screen shot into a reply. Copy and paste doesn't work.

    You cannot download Snow Leopard 10.6 "Period"  Snow Leopard ONLY comes on a DVD.

     

    If you have the Snow Leopard DVD you can install it from the DVD, no download necessary.


    Since this is the Mavericks forum, I'm wondering why you are asking about Snow Leopard?

     

    Is that screen shot from the Mavericks' Recovery Partition (boot holding Command-R or Boot holding "Option" key and select the Recovery partition)?  If so, then NO you cannot download Snow Leopard.  You could NEVER download Snow Leopard.  It ONLY came on a DVD, which Eric Root gave you the link for purchasing it, if you want to purchase a copy.  NOTE: Snow Leopard will NOT run any any Mac which was manufactured after OS X Lion 10.7 was released, so make sure the Mac where you want to install Snow Leopard can run Snow Leopard.
