Make sure your MacBook Pro meets Mavericks requiremennts > OS X Mavericks: System Requirements
Mavericks is a 5.35GB file and requries a high speed broadband connection and requires 8GB or more of available disk space.
Backup all important files before upgrading
Checked to see how much space is available ??
Click your Apple menu  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

HT201364 Mavericks won't download even after upgrading to Snow Leopard.

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard on a Mac OS 10.6.8 and still Mavericks won't download.

Memory -  menu About This Mac will show you the memory.
Space remaining - make your hard drive visible in Finder's sidebar using Finder/Preferences/General if it is not already there and then select it. Do a Get Info (command - I) and the available space will be shown.
What happens when you click download in the App Store? If you look at the App Store Purchases tab does it show there?

New itunes won't download on my mac

The new update for itunes won't download on my mac. It says that it is not compatible with my operating system. I just want to put music on my IPHONE 5!!!!!

iTunes 10.7 or newer requires at least Mac OS X 10.6.8. If you're running Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, click here and buy the DVD.

Mavericks won't install on newest mac mini fusion drive

I have a mac mini, latest version. I have a fusion drive.
Mavericks won't install on that drive. I get this message:
This disk doesn't use the GUID Partition Table scheme. Use Disk Utility to change the partition scheme. Select the Disk, choose the
partition tab, select the volume Scheme and then click Options.
Well, I did that, up to "choose the partition tab." Then it says "you may only split this partition into two. To do this, click +."
I did that, and there were two partitions. the only option left is to select apply, which I didn't.
The "options" were still greyed out.
So now what?
Thanks for any input.

Lion creates a recovery area with a minimal version of OS X and it may be unable to do so due to use over the years, and possibly other resizing operations (Boot Camp). It could just need more space, if you only have less than 8gb free. Lion shuffles and merges the two systems when it upgrades. You can burn the image downloaded from App Store by finding the dmg file inside the "Install Mac OS X Lion.app" bundle, dragging it into disk utility, then burning from there.
Otherwise, you can appropriate a MBR/BIOS formatted 4GB thumbdrive, 8GB of either EFI or MBR/BIOS thumbdrive, flash storage device, or external hard drive, and format it, using the restore operation through disk utility to copy the contents of the installer disk to the media. Exposed via the alt key before the Apple logo, should show the bootable media, where you can format over the former installation.
As always, backup your files when upgrading. I recommend if your installion is over a year old to wipe and upgrade if you can't make otherwise the media bootable, using your 10.6 recovery dvd.
If you cannot find an external medium to backup your files before the upgrade, if you need to format via disk utility (Through 10.6 media), you can consider Dropbox as an option (2GB free account).
It's not uncommon for the partition to simply refuse operations, including upgrades and resizing.

Mavericks won't download for some odd reason on 10.6.8.

Hi, whenever I try downloading, not installing (havn't gotten there yet), the app says that it is downloading but there is literally nothing on the progress bar. This is extremely agrivating because I would like to get pages, but I need 10.9 to install it. Can anyone help me in getting Mavericks to work, if so please tell me.

Hey Skiba24!
I have an article for you that can outline some tips for getting this download to continue:

Adobe CS6 installer won't download onto my Mac!

I am trying to download Adobe CS6 Creative Suite Standard onto my new MacBook Pro and the installer won't download. It starts downloading and then suddenly stops and won't start again. I'm very frustrated, can anyone help?!

use a different browser if you have trouble with the links below,
Downloads available:
Suites and Programs: CC 2014 | CC | CS6 | CS5.5 | CS5 | CS4 | CS3
Acrobat: XI, X | 9,8 | 9 standard

Download and installation help for Adobe links
Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages. They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3. If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.
or dl directly from prodesigntools.com:
if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: Download Adobe CS6 Trials: Direct Links (no Assistant or Manager) | ProDesignTools
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

Mavericks won't download, it just says Mavericks couldn't download, then it says an error occurred.

A pop up will come and say Mavericks couldn't download. Then is the purchases page it says an error occurred. it usually stops somewhere around 995.2 and it does it every time. I've tried multiple solutions almost everyday for weeks. It never worked once. I will attatch pictures of some of the problem.

OS X Mavericks won't install after erasing Mac Hardrive for reboot

So I decided to reboot my computing and now the new OS X software won't install

If you do have an iMac, Late 2012, restart the iMac holding the Command+Option+R keys so you boot from the Apple internet servers, you must be on the internet to do that. You can then choose Install Mac OS X and reinstall your operating system. Then proceed to go to the Mac App Store and download and install Mavericks.

OS X Mavericks won't download. Why?

Thanks to a member of the community, I found OS X Mavericks (I'd forgotten that Macs had a separate app store). Before writing I'd already checked my system should accept Mavericks:
Genius told me my computer was compatible (had a new battery put in today), I'm running 10.6.8, I backed up my hard drive, I have 8 whatevers of RAM. I click on download. The little circle goes around for a couple of seconds and then stops. What is the problem and how can I fix it.
Many thanks in advance!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, the OS X Mavericks version available in the Mac App Store is not compatible with your Mac, so you cannot download OS X Mavericks. Until your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs, you will not be able to download OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store.
You can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

Spinning grey wheel, mavericks won't download

Upgrading to Mavericks from OSX 10.7.5 on a air 13 late 2010 4g ram, 2.16ghz 256g storage, about 2/3 in use. I tried 3 times the night before last and it acted normal but after a few minutes it popped up to restart. Then starting yesterday morning, and ever since when i hit 'download' it clicks and gives me a gray spinning wheel in the upper left for a second, and that's all. I have tried clearing the caches, and restarting the computer, and re logging in. It is not in Launchpad, it is not under unfinished downloads in app store accounts. It is in purchased apps, with the word download.
Thanks,
al
