I can not upgrade to Maverick from the App store

Though it is available for me to download.  My specs are: MacBook c. 2010, OS X Lion 10.7.5, 2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM and 48GB free.  Is there aay for me to know what I am missing? Why it won't install?

That could be one of two models with that designation. Neither of which will accept Mavericks.

    These are public forums, you are not talking to iTunes Support here (most of the people here, including myself, are fellow users) - I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post
    If you are getting a message to contact iTunes support then you can do so via this page and ask them why the message is appearing (we won't know why) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • How do I install Mavericks from the App Store if I erased my HD?

    My mbp has been acting funny and slow, and I think I may have had some corrupted files. I have my computer backed up to time machine, and additionally I saved all my important files, photos etc to the external HD before I began. Then I erased my HD. Everything I read indicated that since I had installed mavericks previously (and legitimately), I would be able to do so again from disk utility after I finished erasing the HD so long as I had a working Internet connection. Well, I do, but now when I click "Reinstall OS X" I get a screen with Mavericks and then an error message saying, "this is not a supported method of installing the operating system/ please run Install OS X Mavericks.app that you downloaded from the app store." But I erased my hard drive! I really don't want to use my time machine backup because I'm worried some of my files are corrupted, and wouldn't that just put me back in the exact same position?
    For the record, it's a late 2010 MBP that originally had Snow Leopard. My boyfriend upgraded it to Mavericks for me a few weeks ago.

    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    You  can then re-download Mavericks from the App Store.

  • My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?

    My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?

    FYI Mac OS X is not designed to be installed on additional Macs, unless you purchased it from the App Store, in which case you can make as many copies as you wish and install it on as many Macs as you own.
    From the Recovery Disk Assistant -
    Notes
    If the computer shipped with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, the external recovery drive may only be used with the system that created it.
    If the system was upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion purchased from the App Store, the external recovery drive can be used with other similarly-upgraded systems.

  • I keep getting 'unknown error' after clicking 'install app' when trying to download Mavericks from the App store.

    You can't use Safari to download iPad apps. Only use iTunes/App Store.

  • I can't download Mountain Lion from the App Store; it tells me that the product distribution file cannot be verified. What can I do?

    Try starting in safe mode, holding the Shift key while your computer is starting. After starting in safe mode, open the App Store and download Mountain Lion

    Wipe the drive and reinstall Lion.

  • How can I get a refund from the app store?

    Hi,
    I bought an game from the app store for 4.99. The description was written to be completely misleading and misrepresentative of the product (BADASS DUCATI: Street Monster).
    I notice the same developer has a number of apps. on the store following the same format. Also there are more under a different developer name.
    I emailed apple for a refund. No response (disappointing). I emailed the developer. No response (no surprise). Surely apple must have some responsibility to ensure that apps are correctly represented in their store and, by taking a commission on the transaction, should take some ownership of the contract of sale?
    Any suggestions how to get a refund? how to report these bogus apps so that apple can clean the shelves of rogue developers?
    Regardless of the success of a refund,  to see the apps get pulled and the developer banned would at least demonstrate that apple care about their consumers and are not supporting the app store as a platform for conmen.

    There are no refunds.  Sorry.

  • Why can't I download anything from the App Store?

    I tried downloading a free app from the apple App Store but I now get a message saying there was a problem taking payments and I have to update my credit card details. This is confusing as the app is free and I have never tried paying for an app without having the money in my bank to pay for it. Why does it now tell me I ended credit card details to install an app and why has the error occurred with my bank details?

    Check to make sure your credit card details (like expire date, etc) are current.

  • Can't download or buy from the App Store

    Whenever I try to download or buy something from the App Store it tells me to give the 3 security questions and I click ok than a pop up appears to write my password but it keeps popping every time I write although its correct so I can't buy or download anything from the App Store , plzzzz help

    I have figured out already. Firstly please try:
    1) Installing iBooks on your iPad via iTunes on PC/MAC
    2) Adjust the time of your iPad to 6 months ahead (e.g. 2013 May)
    3) Close all apps currently running, clear Safari cache and history, sign out of Apple ID (Settings>iTunes & App Stores), reboot your device
    4) Open iBooks on your iPad, download any 1 book
    5) System should prompt you to enter 3 security questions
    6) Enter your answer and click "Done" at bottom right part of your input keyboard (Do not press upper right button)
    7) Done!
    I cannot imagine the system has gone so stupid. Apple, please retify the problem ASAP.

  • I can't download Xcode 4 from the App Store.

    Hi Everyone,
    I am getting a strange error, while trying to downloadXcode 4 from the App store. I have also contacted with the iTune store onlinehelp and other support division of Apple. I have talked with the Apple representativeyesterday about an hour but he couldn’t recognize this error message.
    My first question is how to solve this? As no body has ananswer, whom do I ask if Apple technician said, “ I don’t know how to solvethat”? I am using OS Lion 10.7.1
    Are they not tested well before launching this in to the Appstore; I thought only Microsoft has this kind of problems. Now after migratingto Apple I am having issues, than what is the meaning of investing more? I canuse the open source “ Ubuntu” or other OS.
    Your help is appreciated! If any one can solve it.

    Are you trying to update the original Xcode installer, is it still resident in your Applications folder? Because that is usually why a delta update is involved, it is updating a previous version of an app. If this is the case, then I would put the installer in the Trash and restart the Mac. Do not empty the Trash. Now see if the MAS will allow you to download the full installer for Xcode, since it can no longer detect the existence of the previous versions installer.

  • Just upgraded my OS from the app store, so I don't have the actual disk. What do I do if my hard drive crashes (again) and I have to reinstall the OS?

    The hard drive on my computer crashed a couple of weeks ago, so I had to re-install the old OS from the CD that came with my computer almost four years ago. After dealing with all that, I decided to upgrade to OS 10.8.4 and purchased the upgrade from the app store. And then about 20 minutes later I made the realization that hey, if this happens again, I don't have an actual disc to reinstall from should my hard drive crash again. I'm planning on getting a new computer once I get my financial aid in September, but it would be just my luck that my hard drive crashes two weeks before I get that, so what should I do to make sure I don't have to re-purchase the upgraded OS?

  • How can I download Mnt Lion from the App Store on a new Mac running Mavericks?

    Greetings... We just purchased a new iMAC at work and need to remove Mavericks and move it backwards to Mnt Lion.
    Some of our big apps like Esko Automation Engine Pilot arn't ready for Mavericks yet so we need to go back a version
    to obtain the compatibility.
    When I access the Mnt Lion download via the App Store I get an error message (1004) stating that Mnt Lion can not
    be installed on this machine?
    Any ideas on how I can make this happen?
