How long should the download for Maverick take?

I am updating to Mavericks and the download is going on for quite a while.  Since there is no progress bar (only the button which says "Downloading"), I am not sure if anything is happening.  How long should I wait?
Thanks

It's almost 6 GB, and the download speed depends on your broadband connection. If you open LaunchPad, or look in the Applications folder for the installer, there will be a progress bar you can watch to see the status of the download.

    How long should the iCloud back up take? I only have 4gb of storage but it has taken almost an hour already with approximately 2 hours remaining. 

    Hi RMaskery14,
    If you are concerned about the time your iCloud backup is taking, you may find the following article helpful:
    My backup is taking a long time to finish.
    Backing up and restoring takes time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your backup and the speed of your network, you may need more time than expected to complete the process. Using a reliable connection when backing up your device is highly recommended.

  • HT5612 How long should the download take to go from Snow Leopard to the newest version of Mountain Lion?  I started the download 2 hours ago and it's still running.

    I have ac OS X version 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.  I bought the upgrade to Mountain Lion and started the download 2 hours ago.  It is still downloading.  What should I do?  Is this typical?

    There are several internet sites you can access to test both your upload and download speeds. Among them are:
    Speedtest.net
    Speakeasy.net
    WhatIsMyIP.ccom
    Be aware that there can and likely will be wide variations in the tested speed depending on the location of the server running your test, time of day, etc. The results should be taken with a grain of salt and treat variations of less than 10% as inconsequential.

  • How long should the email for the upgrade take?

    I sent in the request for the free upgrade to MLion early this morning since I bought my MacBook Pro June 17th, 2012.  I was curious if I should have gotten a response already or not?
    I actually moved a couple of days ago and I used my new address instead of the one I had when purchasing the MB. 
    Thanks,
    Nic

    It has been more than 24 hours since i applied, and i still have not received my codes yet. i called the customer support this morning, and now i have been informed to wait for another 72 hours.
    not very happy about this.

  • How long should the Repository Creation Utility take for Oracle Portal?

    I'm running the Oracle Repository Creation Utility (RCU) as a precursor to installing WebCenter, and the schema creation process is stuck on the "Portal" step. The first 10-12 steps each took less than 30 seconds to complete, and the last step has been going for 2 hours 14 minutes.
    I checked the rcu log files, and they are constantly being updated with new progress information as though the process is still working. I haven't been able to find anyone else on the internet with this problem. From various screenshots on google, it looks like it can complete in under 10 minutes in some cases.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Is it showing some error ?
    Check with DB settings and parameters properly.Usaully it should not take long time to complete.Possible chances are corrupt rcu file.I would suggest download again the RCU and re-run it.
    Anyways in which version of DB you are trying to install ?(vendor and version).
    Which version of RCU you are using ?

  • How long does the download for mountain lion take?

    after the reading of many very bad customer appraisals I have not hesitated, nevertheless, and have on-line bought the silver lion's actualisation. Now I wait for half an hour, and there is no result generally. What´s happening there? Is this the apple company, where i am client since 20 Years?!

    Yes, it's an "improvement". Now, instead of spending time going to the Apple store and buying a shiny new disc, or ordering it online, you only have to wait for your beard to grow.
    If you have a loading bar under AppsStore icon, that's right.

  • How long should the apple protection plan take to register?

    it says it has been registering since yesterday

    Are you referring to Apple Care?  It should update within a minute.
    Where did you buy it?  You have to be careful if you got a code from eBay or similar "retailers"...

        Hello otter314!
    Let's take a look into this to see if we can figure out what happened. When did this begin? What's the software version of the device? Do you remember what was happening with the device right before this started? Please supply me with some additional information, I'm happy to help with a resolution!

  • HT4796 how long should the migration take

    how long should the PC to Mac migration take

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It depends on the amount of files you are transferring and the method you are using to transfer your files (Wi-Fi or Ethernet). Both methods are slow and migration would take hours if you need to transfer a lot of files.
    I only recommend you to use Windows Migration Assistant if you need to transfer a small amount of files. If not, it is much better to copy your files to an external drive and transfer them to your Mac

  • How long should the Mac Book pro hold its charge???

    How long should the Mac Book pro hold a  battery charge??

    For a single use or how long will the battery last until it needs to be replaced?  For single use, it depends on what you are doing when using you mac.  I find that when using mine I get about 6-6 1/2 hours just using it to browse the internet before I need to recharge it.  If it is one of the newer Macbook Pros that claim to have a 7 hour battery life, It can last up to 5 years.  See this article on notebook batteries to get the most out of your battery: http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html.  Hope this helps

  • How long does the number porting process take?

    Hello Everybody! I just got my iphone (witch I LOVE it by the way) but I was wondering, how long does the number porting process take?
    I ported my phone number over from SprintPCS last night at around 7pm EST and right now it's 8am EST and my Palm seems to still be working... Is this normal?
    I'm still receiving incoming calls to my Palm, Text messages to my Palm, but yet I can do outgoing calls from my iphone... I'm kinda confused...
    I mean I received the text on my iphone from sprint telling me: "Welcome to AT&T" as well as receiving the e-mail saying my new phone number is the same one I've had for 6 years now... Is 13 hours considered normal?
    Thanx! :-D

    QueenYvette,
    If it continues to be an issue tomorrow, I would recomend calling again, and getting in contact with AT&T's porting department. They are familiar with resolving any issues that may arise.
    Powering off both phones is to make sure that the old phone is not maintaining an active connection with the old carrier that can interfere with the last steps of the porting process. If at all possible its a good idea to leave the old phone powered off, and restart the new phone about once an hour so that it will resync with the towers.
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • TA44686 how long should the disconnect message display

    I connected my ipod to my computer and the do not disconnect message doesn't go away. How long should the message show

    Mine took about an hour or so but it mostly depends on your modem and processor speeds. You can check the progress by clicking your iphone on the left and then checking the download progress. As long as that is moving I would just leave it and wait but don't let your computer shut down.
