Cant't download Lion through app store

Hi there,
I cannot download Mac OS Lion through the app store!
Following data:
MacBook Pro (late 2008)
Fully updated to 10.6.8
500GB free space
Problemdescription:
Download starts and goes on until 3.74 GB then the app store tells me the download has failed and it cannot finish it!
Console:
25.07.11 13:40:00 storeagent[852] ISStoreURLOperation: Expected bytes (812271975) did not match actual (964283543)! Setting error. See 9215068.
I have tried now for the 3rd time to download Lion (and my Internet connection is not the fastest one so one download will take me up to 12 hrs)
I have also treid to reset the app store (debug window). I have also checked Home(how to get the tilde sign on a german layot?)/Library/Application support/appstore but it was empty.
Does anyone knows what it is? I've never had problems downloading anything through the app store.
Please help...

That is the full file, that is the size of the Installer. When I had these termination issues with the iTunes Store in the past I think that it was my ISP. When I got a new ISP with a faster download speed this issue disappeared to never return.
You might try a change of DNS service. The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in System Preferences/Network on your Mac will override the router settings.
Try either of these;
OpenDNS
208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Google Public DNS
8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

Bought Lion through App Store. It is my understanding that Lion can be loaded on all machines owned by the same family. But, I cannot find the download when I go into the app store in my "purchased" file. Don't want to buy it again if not needed.

Upgraded to Lion via the App store download. After reading many posts, it seems that I can load Lion on my other imacs. However, when I sign into the store and check my downloads, Lion is not there. Don't want to purchase more software If I don't have to. Any Suggestions?

On your other Macs, Open ->App Store and Sign in with the same Apple ID and you should be able to d/l from the Purchases Tab

Could not download Lion from App store after buying it... Forbiden

I Have the following error when trying to download:
The server gave an error during download: 403 Forbidden.
I can download other (free) apps ... Only this one not working

I have the same error 403 forbidden error, even though it is showing as purchased in my Mac App Store, but I cannot find any trace on my MacBook Pro.
I even went into an Apple store to try to get it installed today using their internet, but all I got is the same error message. Teething problems or something more serious??? Hmm
No doubt Apple will sort it out before long, but maybe they should have also kept the old disc option too, at least until all the OS downloading problems are fixed, 2nd Lion release / update? It's a new way of getting the OS, & maybe this option is not good enough yet.

Downloading Lion. App Store Issues?

So if the App. Store Icon is missing from my apps folder does that mean I can"t download anything from the app store? I've been trying to download Lion with no success?

Which Mac OS X do you have installed? You need to be running v10.6 Snow Leopard to install the Mac App Store.

Trying to download Lion trought App store, it downloads and it asks for account login and it installs again it never shows installed it always shows installing. this is the third time it's installing. Am I doing something wrong?

Been trying to download Lion from the App Store. It saks for login, I login in and it starts install. After about 13 hours it finishes download then asks for login again. After login, it starts installing again. It never shows installed. This is the third time I am doing this. Am I doing something wrong?

Sorry, my bad, we have the iMac G5 10.6.8. I just got home and the message said an error occurred and was unable to download. Am I doing something wrong or is there something I need to do.

Can't download Lion from app store or anywhere else

When I search for OS X Lion in the app store as directed on Apple's site, all I get are some related books and a few random apps -- not the system software itself. When I click the "upgrade to Lion" buttons on Apple's site, I get a message saying Safari can't open the page because it doesn't recognize an address starting with "macappstore." I get a similar message when I use Firefox. The whole thing is very circular; the upgrade buttons lead nowhere, and the app store doesn't seem to sell Lion. Any ideas as to what's happening, or, more important, where I can buy Lion online? Thanks.

You don't use Safari to open the MAS - it is in application in your Applications Folder and should be in your dock as well. Looks like this:
If you launch that app, you will find Lion.

I can't download Lion from App Store - says an error has occured. Have rebooted and contacted Apple support. Can anybody help?

Every time I try to download Lion, the download, the download appears to start, but then stops, saying an error has occured, with nothing downloaded, and the App icon disappears from the dock.
Has anybody else experienced similar?

same problem and precisely with the OS X lion up to date program.
I called apple but they said there's nothing they can do for now. there are many problems they are trying to resolve and one of them is the up to date program.
the only solution available they said is to wait. but they didn't specify for how long.
One would think that they'd test their solution well when they took the decision to make the OS available only though the appstore or at least offer a back up solution should people be unable to obtain it like it is the case for us.

Cant review Mountain Lion on App Store since my computer came with it?

I want to be able to review mountain lion but it says you need to purchase this before you can write a review. Is there no way I can possibly review it since my computer came with mountain lion?

Not that I know of, no. That's the way the Mac App Store works.
There are some apps I've purchased outside the MAS; I can't review them on the MAS either because I didn't purchase them there.

How long should it take to download Lion from App store?

The download bar/indicator does not seem to be moving at all. There have been no messages. Is the App store very busy and should I try again later?

When I attempted on Day#1, it took nearly 24 hours, three or four aborted downloads, several hung downloads, several stuck at "Waiting..." and a furious rant into the skies after hours of quiet desperation. The last time I tried took me a couple of hours tops.

How to download Lion when app store doesn't work

Hi, since purchasing my MacBook Pro in April i have never been able to get the App Store to work. I am now looking to upgrade to Lion but as i can't access it via the App Store has anyone got any ideas how i can purchase it. I presume in time it will be available from Amazon but i would prefer to get it sooner than that. Kind regards

It won't be available from Amazon anytime soon.
Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Then restart your Mac.
Then click your Apple icon top left in your screen then click App Store.
