Stop downloading Lion from the App store So, I bought a new Mac book Air recently, opened up the AppStore and found "Lion" in the featured updates.

I thought that was shown because I was not running lion and clicked on it to upgrade. Later mucked around the system to figure that I was running Lion and my system had been updated to the latest version of Lion.

But because I clicked the Install on the Lion in the appstore,


I am charged with $30, which I don't really have to pay.
My launchpad now displays the Lion as downloading.


I can't seem to stop the launchpad icon from downloading and can't remove it from there.

Now my queries:


Is it possible to "un-install" from the appstore. How?
Once the Lion completes download, will my system be updated again to the same version of the OS? What happens to the installed apps
Is it possible that somehow I can get back my $30, which is a wrong charge.
How do I stop the download from happening, prevent re-install and remove that downloading icon from Launchpad?


I probably acted a little stupid by clicking to buy that in the first place without even knowing my system runs Lion. But in my defense, I didn't think an app that I don't need to install would download and charge me; not by Apple.

Thanks in advance.
Purchasing is like being pregnant, but a little more black and white. It either went through or it didn’t. In your case, you can pause the download and delete the temporary file (turn off automatic downloads) and then decide if it’s worth it to ask for a refund.

To apply for a refund, contact Mac App Store Support.
