Unable to reinstall Mac OS X Lion
I have no idea of where to post this but here is the situation, I got an iMac from my cousin, it belonged to her brother. Now the HDD gave some problems and I was unable to boot directly in to Mac OS X. Now I can only access the recovery HD, and when I try to reinstall Mac OS X the installer keeps telling me that my AppleID hasn't been used in the store yet.
Now how I'm I suppose to reinstall Mac OS X if the installer refuses to continue beyond that point. Is there some kind of bypass or trick to get past it? I can't afford any of the products on the store. I don't even have a credit card, I've got a PayPal account loaded with 2USD. And I saw that the store doesn't except PayPal, so even if I could afford to buy any thing I would be able to pay for it. Let alone receive it, since the shipping section doesn't have South Africa listed.
I need help with reinstalling Mac OS X ASAP, it's standing idle right now wait for me to move along with the installation.
