Can't download Maverick from app store

I am having troubles downlaoding Maverick for the App Store. I click "Free Upgrade" then "Install App" and up by the forward and back buttions the spinning wheel moves, but nothing happens after that. I am running 10.7.5 on a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.

I'd try:
Restart and delete any partially downloaded bits of the installer that are in your applications folder. Then try the download again.
If that doesn't work, I'd restart in safe mode (restart and hold down shift until you see the Apple symbol), and try again.

  • Can't download Mavericks from App Store "you have updates available" error

    I am running Lion which came with my iMac and it's up to date. I wanted to finally upgrade to Mavericks so I started downloading it a few days ago, but cancelled the download because it was taking so long. So today, I went to start it again and now I'm getting the error: "You have updates available for other accounts Sign in to (my account) to update applications for that account." I have no other Apple accounts. I have searched for this error here an all over the web and performed all of the suggestions: repair permissions, Spotlight, you name it, I've tried it. I even had an older Mavericks install file on an external and it just bounced and wouldn't install.
    Any new suggestions?

    OK, I'm answering my own question here in case it will help others.
    I suppose you could call it user stupidity, but I'll say it's bad user experience on the part of the App Store.
    I went ahead and clicked the "Install App" button, hoping I would then have the option to just download but not (reinstall) Mavericks. That is exactly what happens.
    The App Store displays a warning to the effect of:
    You already have Mavericks installed on this machine. Do you want to continue and just download the installer?
    You click the 'Continue' button and you're good to go.

    Are you listing the billing address for the card correctly? The address in the iTunes/MAS account must match the address on your bill exactly.

  • Can't download Mavericks at App Store

    I can't download Mavericks at App Store: it says that it requires at least 2GB of memory but I still have 144GB free in my Mac.

    The 144GB free is space on your hard drive.
    The 2GB minimum memory requirement refers to RAM : If you clcik the Apple menu at top left of your screen, then choose About This Mac : you should see how much memory (RAM) is installed.
    See http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Apple_Upgrade_Guide/Model_ID_iMac to find out how much memory can be installed on your model.

    Try resetting the App Store.
    Reset       Learned from Old Toad
    and you can try:
    - Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
    - Quit the App Store
    - In Finder - Go>Go to folder...  (or Apple-shift-G)
    - Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/ "
    - It will take you to a folder.  Delete com.apple.appstore
    - Launch the App Store.

  • I can't download IPhoto from App Store because I have mac OS X 10.6.8

    can't download IPhoto from App Store because I have mac IOS 10.6.8, how I can download it?

    Simply, you can't download it.
    If you want to upgrade to iphoto 11 then you'll need to either
    1. Upgrade your OS to 10.7.5 - which requires a purchase of the OS
    Or
    2. Find an iLife 11 install disk. You may get one on Amazon or Ebay.

  • Cannot download Mavericks from App Store

    Hello to all,
    I just want to download OS X Mavericks from App Store and I get a simple error message:
    "We could not complete your purchase.
    OS X Mavericks cannot be installed on this computer."
    And the "Learn More" button points me to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842.
    I am doing this from my brand new Mac Book Pro 13'' Retina (Late 2013), running Mavericks 10.9.1.
    My objective is to install Mavericks on my Mac Mini (a system bought at the beginning of 2013), whose original harddrive was replaced with an SSD. That is the reason I just want to do a fresh install on it.
    Waiting for feedback.
    Thank you.

    Hi Thomas,
    I should boot a Linux distro from USB just to erase the disk, although I would expect that as an option to be provided during the setup of the Mac OS X installation process.
    Anyway, meanwhile I am following this guide here: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/apple-in-the-enterprise/how-to-create-a-bootabl e-usb-to-install-os-x-mavericks/.
    While writing this response, I manage to follow the whole article and the result is successful for now: right now I am in the process of installing the Mavericks. Interesting is that after booting from the USB I also got "Your computer restarted..." error, but after that the reboot started the installation process. Then I manage to erase the SSD drive using Disk Utility provided during installation.
    Well... 5 minutes left. :-)
    Again, thanks a lot for the quick answers!

  • In my macbook pro retina 15 inch there is installed mavericks but ı want to create recovery disk and ı need to download mavericks from App Store but it doesn't download??

    Hey guys ı really need your help. I bought macbook pro retina 15 inch 2 weeks ago and it came with installed mavericks of course but ı want to create a recovery disk and to do that ı need to download mavericks installer from app store but when i click to download mavericks from appstore purchased part ı get a message says " Your purchasing process couldnt complete. OS X Mavericks cant be installed to this computer." How can ı solve this problem!??

    One way around tis is to borrow a Mac that can run Mavericks and then the download will work.  You can use these instructions:
    http://www.macworld.com/article/1167857/how_to_make_a_bootable_mountain_lion_ins tall_drive.html
    Though they are for Mt. Lion, the same steps will work.
    Ciao.

  • I can't find Netflix on desktop, can't download it from App Store. It shows it's open, but can't find it.

    I Can't find Netflix on desktop nor can download from App Store. Shows it's open, but can't find it. Any thoughts?

    I would quit the app, since you see it's open, and close all the other apps, then go to settings and reset network settings. The iPad will reboot. Then when it's back again, do a search for "Netflix" which will show you the location of the app (in the search results)
    From my search, you'll see I have it located in a folder I created ...

  • Can't download Yosemite from App Store

    I've got Beta 6 installed from the App Store.  The released version not available in Updates or Purchased.  Selected from Featured says I have 10.10 installed already. Pressing Continue results in nothing ... so can't install from App Store.  What do I do now??

  • Cannot download Mavericks from App Store - error 1004, then error 13.

    I have previously downloaded Mavericks 10.9.5, but now I cannot a second time.  When I attempt to download, I get an error code 1004..hitting cancel gives me error 13. Yosemite will download, but I don't want it until the "bugs" are worked out - maybe version 10.10.2.
    Have contacted technical support by phone and cannot talk to a real person, only the menu system..want a serial number for a Mac. Since my MacBook Pro is over 3 years old, says I must pay for a technical support session - $29 fee.
    This is how to treat a loyal customer?  Pay for support for an App Store failure to download a free upgrade?

    This advise (in theory) should work. However, there are no "hidden items", but there is a "manage" link
    Clicking on that link shows me nothing other than 2 previously downloaded, and since removed, free items (free apps I tried but later removed).
    There is no "hidden" Mavericks download, or for that matter, previously downloaded Mountain Lion.
    (Which I also cannot download from the "purchases" page.)
    There is a button labeled "Reset" which links to "Reset all warnings for buying and downloading" which I have tried multiple times with no positive result.
    No joy.

  • Can't download anything from App Store - MacBook

    I've been using Windows 7 exclusively on my MacBook via Boot Camp for several years. I've since deleted the Windows partition. I ran a Software Update and am currently running OS X 10.6.8. I want to upgrade OS X further but can't download Yosemite (or anything) from the App Store. I click "get" and the button becomes unclickable but nothing happens. I also can't open iTunes.
    I don't have anything on this computer that needs to be saved so I'm more than willing to restore, though I don't know how.

    I'm having the exact same issue in the exact same situation.
    I'm getting the error below in Console every time I try to install or download anything from the App Store. I suspect this has something to do with Safari and some Javascript code being used by Appstore pages.
    I wish there was a direct link to download Yosemit. I'm stuck now...
