HT2404 How long should it take to download combo 10.7.4 OS to my pro book.I bought it a year ago and it has Lion. It has. Been downloading for almost 12 hours and is only about half done. I am also downloading an iTunes update. I am using wifi.
Trying to download OSX Lion combo plus iTunes update.taking 11 hours so ar.i am using wifi and am also plugged in to a power source.My Probook is a year old and has Lion.
What happens is that the weaker the battery, the less time it takes it to charge (and run down) because it doesn't take long to reach its lowered maximum capacity.
Although I never worry about my battery and leave my portables plugged in most of the time, that isn't necessarily the best thing for the battery.

The Internet connection can do it slow or fast. If it's slow, it will take more time -

Hey Beck,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’ve Reset All Settings on your iPhone 4s and now you’re running into an issue where the device only displays an Apple logo on startup. The article linked below provides troubleshooting suggestions that should be able to help you resolve the issue.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If your device gets stuck during startup
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.

How long should it take to download Lion?
I bought a new Macbook Pro today. At 4:30pm I started downloading Lion. It is still not done yet. The blue bar under the Lion head is not even half way across!
How long should this take!?
I am plugged into the router with an ethernet cable. It is a wireless router but I am not connecting to the router wirelessly. I have cable internet. Not the fastest speed available, but it is still cable internet not dial up or DSL.
Is something wrong with my computer or the download?
Thanks,

I did the speed test.
Download speed was: .87 Mbps
Upload was: .32 Mbps
Ping: 58
So how many Mbps are there in 4gb? That's how I figure that out right?

You are on the low end to say the least. Maybe 10 hours at your speed?

How long should it take to download Mountain Lion?
How long should it take to download and install Mountain Lion? I have been downloading it for about 5 hours and it still has 1 gig to go. My current OS X is 10.7.4
It depends on what bottlenecks you have interposed.
If you have a fast Ethernet connection, not cable Internet, that is not throttled by your ISP, and are using fast Ethernet on your local network, you should be able to download in about an hour.
If you are transmitting it over your wireless connection, it may take substantially longer. -
I've erased and formatted the hard drive accordingly in order to reinstall OS X. everything went fine until about half way through the install. it just seems to stop. how long should this take? should i do something else to speed it up?
About all you can do is wait until it finishes or you get an error message.

Can anyone help please?
Lion download to iMac has been running for about 2 hours and is still not halfway yet. How long should it take? should I cancel and start again?1500Kbs is 1.5Mbs. That is Kilo bits per second. There are 8 bits to a byte so if you divide 1500 (or 1,500,000) by 8 you get 187500 bytes a second. Divide 3.5GBs (3,500,000,000), that capitol B is for Bytes, by that 187500 you get 18666.666 seconds. Which needs to be divided by 60 to get the minutes and then again by 60 to get the hours.
5.1851xxx hours.
I use to have a 3Mbs DSL connection and it took me over 3 hours to download Lion. Now that I have a 19Mbs Cable connection it take about an hour to download and install.
So wait it will happen eventually. If you cancel and start again your are still going to wait 5+ hours. -

MAc book pro. I have downloaded and installed os x yosemite now mac book pro will not start? How long should it take? Is there something wrong?
The 2 computers here took about 45 minutes to an hour each.
The best thing to do is give it more time. If it gets too ridiculous, shutdown using the power button and then restart. Check menu/About This Mac to see if it is installed. -
Approximately how long should it take to update the iOS 7.0.2....? So far it has been over 8 hours and the bar is not even half way....

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The download time depends on the Internet speed, but it shouldn't take more than a few minutes. If the download doesn't move, press Alt, Command and Esc keys, force close the installer or the App Store and download and install iTunes from the Apple site > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1614
