Error Trying to Download Maverick
I am running Lion 10.75 (on an imac) and am trying to upgrade to Maverick. When I go to the APP store and try to download it the download appears starts and then part way through (as much as 25% complete) I get an error msg. from the APP store saying :
The Application could not be downloaded.
The application you tried to download could not be downloaded. Check your internet connection and try again.
There is a retry button but each time I try it the retry fails with essentially the same msg.
My internet conncetion is working without a problem. I have lots of space on my hard drive and my OS has all updates applied.
Any idea how to get around this?
Thanks.
What download speed do you get on your internet connection. Check it out. If it isn't too fast and taking into account that it is a Sunday afternoon, a time when many people are downloading movies for the evening, it could simply be down to that.
If it appears that may be the case, call your provider and ask. Such a big download is best carried out late at night.

I have been trying to download Maverick on to my 2012 MacAir. It gets to 996MB and stops. A message says there has been an error in the download and to go to purchases and try again. It's the same every time I try.
Any ideas?Hi Guys:-
If this SAME problems is effecting us all then suspect its not IPS problem as we all get problem at 995.6MB.
I would think that there is some kind of software conflict. If we all having this problem just think of how many users have the same but are not on this discussion board, bet you its 100s and 100s.
Not possible for me to visit store now but will monitor your responce's.
Good luck guys, lets make um give us a fix:- I will call them tomorrow and see what they say:- should point support to this Discussion page and they can answer us !
Cheers and good luck also -
I can't download Maverick, get error message "403 forbidden"-mid 2010, 8Gb ram, 466Gb useable HD- what is the matter?
How are you trying to download Mavericks? From a Recovery HD system, drive, boot USB or from the Mac App Store once you are logged into the version of OS X that is presently installed on your Mac?

Error messages when downloading Mavericks
Hello.
I have tried to download Mavericks over two periods of time.
My problem is that I keep getting the same error when trying to download the file. It just state than an error has occured and that I should try to redownload from Purchases.
When I do that it continues from where it left off, but after varying minutes, it comes with the same error message, and restarts the download progress from scratch! - So far the furthes I got was 1,1GB of data before it started over.
I run a Macbook Air 11", with a 128gb disc, i7 processor and currently have OS X 10.8.5 installed
Please help me!, I wan't to run MavericksMine suddenly downloaded fine, all the way, without me changing anything. So perhaps we just had to arm ourself with patience.

I have tried to download Mavericks on my 2010 iMac(10.6.8), but nothing happens, not even the install app downloads, also I tried to download chrome, I moved it to the applications folder and when I opened the folder it wasn't there. I have a 1tb hard drive that is mostly empty. By the way I just got this imac used from a reseller.
Mavericks downloads into the Applications folder, where you can install it. Some Mac App Store Troubleshooting information and how to resume a download that was interrupted; some of the information here might get you an answer. Failing that, try contacting Apple Support.

Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards
BrianWelcome to Apple Support Communities
You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718 -
I am trying to download Mavericks: it says I purchased it but it hasn't downloaded. What do I do?
It's a big file 5.29 GB. Look in LaunchPad to see if there isn't an icon for the download with a slowly moving progress bar.

I have installed CS5 on a macbook pro 10.9.4. I am unable to get the updater to run to update applications to most current version. It tells me there was an error trying to download the update and to try again later.
Getting used to changes in the finder. I finally did see the Adobe Patch installer and am able to update applications individually. Should be able to attend to the main apps I use w/o further difficulty. Thnx for the help.

Exactly which model/year is yours and does it meet the system requirements for Mavericks?

A minimum of 4 GB RAM is recommended as well as enough hard drive space. -
i bought a mac air yesterday and i was trying to download maverick but i could not do it, i try to download the old version of numbers because i needed for work, but i could not neither, but now when i check to download numbers is asking for to pay?
You are mixing different issues. I will address Numbers.
Has Numbers ever been installed on this new Mac? Did you have the Mac App Store version of Numbers or did you have the DVD version of Numbers?
You should be able to redownload a previous purchase of the Mac App Store version of Numbers from the Purchases pane after signing into your account.
If you had the DVD version, then you will need to install that from the DVD media. -

I have just about given up trying to download Mavericks for my 6-month old iMac running OS X 10.8.5. Each time it gets to around 996mb and stops. Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks Giancarlo. The problem turned out to be my modem/wireless router, which has now been replaced and the problem solved.
