    mountain lion download interrupted and resume button not working

    From the App Store menu bar top of your screen, click Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads
    Keep in mind, for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk using Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation.
    You may need to temporarily disable anti virus software to download apps from the App Store including Mountain Lion.
    Make sure your Mac qualifies to run Mountain Lion >  Apple - Upgrade your Mac to OS X Mountain Lion.

  • Mountain lion download will not resume

    Finally figured out how to get the program to downlaod but my connection in africa is super slow am trying to downlaod it in increments, downloaded a bit yesterday, came back today to continue but no matter how many times i click resume in the task bar or in the purchases window nothing happens and still says "paused". frustrating.

    If you properly pause the download, it should be able to resume without any problem.
    When I downloaded Mountain Lion, I paused and resumed hours later without any problem. But when it reached 95% of the download, my internet connection dropped for like 1 minute, and when it came back, the download restarted from zero.
    So as long as the internet connection is not dropping during the download, you should be able to resume.

  • Why won't mountain lion download on my imac after purchasing?

  • HT4463 Why is Mountain Lion download not working?

    I have purchased the Mountain Lion upgrade, but initially it stopped downloading at 53.25 meg.  Cleared it and started again, but still no success.
    Ant ideas?

    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Click Go
    Move the NetworkInterfaces.plist file from the SystemConfiguration folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch the App Store and try downloading Mountain Lion.
    If that doesn't help, disable anti virus software and try turning off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privay > Firewall
    If nothing above has helped, install the appropriate combo update.
    For Lion v10.7 >  OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo)
    For Snow Leopard > 10.6 > Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    The combo will reintsall the App Store for you which may help. Restart your Mac after the combo is installed. Try downloading Mountain Lion.

  • Mountain lion download interrupted, cannot resume download

    Hello,
    I am running Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro purchased in 2009. I recently purchased Mountain Lion from the App Store. (My system meets all the requirements to download this software.) While attempting to download Mountain Lion, I must have temporarily lost my DSL Internet connection, which is not an uncommon experience in the rural area where I live; it can go off for five minutes then be on again and sometimes does this several times a week. Obviously this paused my download, which looked to be about 50% complete after the first three hours.A shadow mountain lion icon appeared on my dock showing a pause. As per instuctions in Apple Support I went to the Apps store, clicked on purchases and tried to resume my download.The software is listed under my purchases but "resume" was not an option given. So I clicked on the download button thinking I could just start over. The button went from dark to dim as if the download was going to happen but after a few seconds it darkened again and the download did not start. I tried several times. So I looked in this forum again and found a similar problem. The solution given was to go to the application folder, find the icon for the partial download,discard it, then try downloading from the Apps Store again. There was no icon for a partial download in my Application folder. Now I am stymied and very digusted that it is not possible to email Apple support directly with my problem.
    By the way I know Mavericks is the latest version of OSX softtware but download that would mean I would have to buy a new printer so I have decided to stick with Mountain Lion which I am already running on my iMac.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Does the downloaded file/app get corrupted
    A slow internet connection for huge files like Mountain LIon (4.34 GB), can time out before the file is completely downloaded.
    Try this...  from the App Store menu bar top of your screen click Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads.
    Something to keep in mind if you need to repair the startup disk or reinstall OS X.
    "Reinstalling OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion via OS X Recovery requires broadband access to the Internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the Internet from Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation."
    From here >   OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery
    So if it's possible, contact your ISP to see if you can upgrade to a faster connection.

  • Mountain lion download doesn't resume from where it left after an error occur

    I'm trying to download mountain lion but the download doesn't resume from where it stopped when I encounter a drop in my Internet connection/get disconnected. Also I face that after this sequence of events: Internet error occur > surprisingly download resume from where it left > pause the download > resume the download after a few hours. My questions are: how can I solve this issue ? Does the downloaded file/app get corrupted when the download encounters an error which is actually making it restart the whole download? It's really frustrating, I've been downloading for the last couple of days and the downloads restarts even after downloading over one gigabyte. P.s: my Mac meets with the hardware and software requirements for downloading mountain lion.

  • Mountain Lion download begins but stops after 10.4 mb.

    I own a I Mac desktop purchased in late fall of 2009.  Yesterday, I purchased Mountain Lion(and was charged for the program) and have been attempting to download it since.  It starts out fine until it reaches 10.4 mb and then restarts again.  It does that for 5 consecutive times and then leaves the messages "unable to download, check your internet connection."  I spoke yesterday with Apple support and also had a tech person go over everything on my desktop to make sure it is compatible and running properly.  I am runing Snow Leopard now and have never had a problem with downloads.  ALSO, I can download any other app and it works perfectly.  I also contacted my internet provider, thinking there may be a problem downloading a program of that size, and he said there are now problems on that end either.  The Apple support person did say that a new update was just released for Mountain Lion, but that was the only thing that he could come up with.  Any suggestions?

    Have you tried installing in Safe Mode ?
    Restart holding the "shift" key.
    (Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)

  • I'm using a late 2006 2.33GHz imac.I clean installed 10.6 from disc then updated to 10.7 from download.Now every time my computer goes into sleep it won't wake up.Anyone know how to cure this problem please??

    I'm using a late 2006 2.33GHz imac.
    I clean installed 10.6 from disc then updated to 10.7 from download.
    Now every time my computer goes into sleep it won't wake up.
    The only way it will restart is to pull the mains lead out of the imac, put it back and try until it will start.
    This only happened after reinstalling.  Only Apple OS was on the imac and so it must be an issue with the software I believe.....
    Anyone know how to cure this problem please?
    Thanks
    paul

    This isn't a fix, more a workaround I used when I had wake from sleep problems that lasted from some point in 10.6.x, through 10.7 and into 10.8 (got fixed for me in 10.8.2). It seems to be connected with Bluetooth failing to wake up properly:
    System Preferences>Energy Saver and set 'computer sleep' to 'never'.

  • Mac Mail won't open after waking computer up. Have to force quit & restart

    Hi there,
    My mail won't open 85% of the time unless I force quit and restart my computer. Then, after my computer goes to sleep, I click on the stamp on my dock, and nothing happens. My computer says its still open. I've tried quitting mail and reopening from my Applications folder. I've deleted the icon on the dock and tried to access from Applications, but still, nothing happens, and I have to force quit my computer and restart over and over again to use the mail.
    Any one have an idea for me? I have my gmail and another personal email set up as IMAP. Could there be a glitch in the way I set that up? Mail seems to come and go fine, when it's active.
    Thanks in advance for your time and any help

    Has anyone found a solution to this? I'm having the exact same problem and it really just started a couple days ago.

    Depending on your connection speed, it could take anywhere from 1-8 hours to download.  It's a 4GB download.
    On the average 3Mbps home network connection, it will take 3-4 hours to download.

  • Location of Mountain Lion Download?

    For some reason yet to be discovered I always seem to have issues downloading large files on my Mac.
    I have a work around where I download the SW packages at work and save to a USB thumb drive and then copy and install on my Mac.
    Can someone tell me where the Mountain Lion download is located and what I need to do if I already have the purchase recoreded in the apps store?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Mmmmm now thats a problem!
    Any ideas why when I download it tells me that I have a "hash mismatch" problem. I guess that the checksum is failing????
    I've noticed in the past that large downloads seem to get corrupted.
    Any suggestions or workarounds?
    In the past with major updatyes that have don this then I've gone to the downloads page and downloaded from my PC at work and then copied the .dmg to my mac and its worked.
    This problem only seems to have started when I moved to a cable modem from DSL?? not sure if this is a clue or not
    Thanks
