I have paused the freedownload to Mavericks have read negative reports should I not download at this time I have a 2012 iMac 10.07 should I wait?

I would like to know if it is a great idea to finish the download I started. It is now paused.
Have read some of the dialog and much of it was negative.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It is up to you. If you are worried about problems and OS X Mountain Lion is working properly, maybe it is better to leave OS X Mountain Lion until Apple makes OS X Mavericks more stable. Initial versions are never the best ones, and you may find bugs in OS X Mavericks, so you should consider the option of upgrading to OS X Mavericks later. Also, OS X Mountain Lion still receives security updates and it is still supported.
If you want to upgrade, continue the download. Make sure you make a backup of your files with Time Machine before upgrading, and check that your applications are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

I have tried to download an audiobook that has Two parts. The second part of the book downloaded. But the First point did not. I keep getting "Part 1 could not download at this time". How can I get it to download?

I have tried to download an audiobook that contains Two Parts. The second part was successful in downloading. However, the first part was not. I keep getting "Part 1 could not download at this time". I should have enough space for the download. Any suggestions of what I can do?

Cannot download OSX Maverick? My current system is Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and even when logged into the app store I'm getting the message that I can not download at this time. Try Later?

Are you connected via wifi? If so, and it is an option, try connecting using a ethernet cable. It sometimes seems to help as it can give a more reliable connection for the 5.3gb download.
If you do manage to download it you may want to make a copy of the installer file - which gets downloaded to the Applications folder - before running it as it self-deletes on successful installation. It may save you another monster download in the future.

IOS 7 is supposedly downloaded, but when in the processes of verifying I receive a message saying ios7 not available at this time. Try again later. What?!?

HT1725 I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest of the songs keep trying to download and then come up with an error saying they cannot download at this time. I'm not sure what the issue is.

I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest keep trying to download, but I keep getting a message that says, "Song cannot be downloaded at this time. Do you want to retry or be done." Each time I retry, the same thing happens. They will not download. I have restarted my phone and the same problem remains.

Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days.
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

Since upgrading to ios7, apps just say waiting and then get the app cannot be downloaded at this time message. We run a proxy server, devices running ios6 have no problems. Anyone know what the problem is? I think apple just needs to fix its new OS.

I work at a school running 10 iPads. We connect to the internet through a proxy server. Prior to iOS7 we had no issues, the devices still on iOS6 work perfectly.
All devices which have been upgraded to iOS7 cannot download apps. I can find the apps in the store, choose to download them, but the icon hangs for a while before returning the "app cannot be downloaded at this time message". Help.

I have this same exact issue. We have even put all apple servers as not even being filtered by proxy and it still wont download anything. Nor will it let us even log in or create a new acct in the app store. It seems its also not just app store related....as it won't even let you check for IOS updates when a proxy is entered.
If anyone has any ideas let us know!

I downloaded and installed Lion on an external hard drive using my laptop which is running Snow Leopard I have now decided that I want to install Lion on my Laptop, but when I go to the App store and click on my purchases it will not download again

Thanks Dirk,
Tried your suggestion various ways but it had no effect the download button was still greyed out and the install button would not activate will keep trying to find a solution. I dont want to boot from the external hard drive that has Lion on mainly because it is a usb HD and the connection to my wireless modem slows the connection rate and downloading would take about ten hours

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

You have posted to the iTunes for Mac forum. Logic Pro X is an OS X application. You will get better support responses by posting your question to the Using Mac App Store forum.

I got this error with my iPad 3, my wife's iPhone 4, but not with my iPhone 4s.

I have bought and ipad first generation and i would like to put my ebooks on how can I do this please the Ibook app will not download on this ipad

I have bought a apple ipad 1st generation and I would like to put my ebooks on how would I do this the ibook app will not download on this ipad many thanks for any help offered

Try downloading the current version of the iBooks app on your computer's iTunes so that the app is in your purchase history. Then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it.
If the ebooks aren't ibooks, then unless they are digital-rights-management free epubs then you probably won't be able to add them to your computer's iTunes library (File > Add To Library) and sync them to your iPad - in they do have DRM on them then does the store that you got them from have their own app in your computer's iTunes ? If they then you could try the above and see if they have an iOS 5 compatible version available.

TS1424 I have purchased a film and an album in iTunes. They all appear under downloads but state 'download error, tap to retry'. When I retry a box appears quoting the title of the film/song and ''unable to download at this time'. Help pls!!

Recently rented a film and bought an album on iTunes. The items appear in my purchased items and in my download items however they have a download error tap to retry. When I retry I box appears quoting name of item and unable to download at this time. What do I need to check? I have had no problems downloading before and my Internet signal is strong. Help please!!

For the rental:
Select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.
For the music:
Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

Ok, it sounds like you are getting to the final step. (i.e., Your on your iPhone, showing a good Wi-Fi connection, you are using the App Store and have selected the App you want. The small Icon for your App is showing a bar at the bottom that has an open "fill bar" that is going to track the download and installation of the App. But at this point you get an Error Message. The Error Message Says, "?????" Try again latter? What?
Just for fun, try downloading the App while you and your iPhone are as close to the Wi-Fi Router as possible. Lets see if you are just experiencing a weak Wi-Fi signal. This can cause App Downloads to fail.

Hi, Kenny.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
There are a couple things that I would recommend trying. Try closing all open applications and power cycle the device. Next, go through the section labeled Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in the second article below. If the issue persists, try completely signing out of the iTunes Store on the iOS device and sign back in. Be sure to test downloading an application after each step.
iOS: Force an app to close
