    Your issue downloading Mountain Lion appears to have been answered HERE. I'm betting you are both running Antivirus.

  • OS X Mountain Lion won't download

    So I'm on a Macbook 2010 version running OS X version 10.6.8 which is the requirement for downloading Moutain Lion.  I bought Mountain Lion in the App Store and when i start downloading it I can see it progresses to around 700mb and then it just stops and says "An error has accurred". I have a 100mbit line and not using wifi but an ethernet cable. Anyone got advice? Very frustrating to pay for something and not be able to use it.

    Contact the Mac App Store support folks - http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/.
    It seems that a number of people, recently, are getting that "an error has occurred" message... may be a 'clink' in Apple's MAS servers...

  • TS1702 mountain lion won't download

    I am new to Macs and computers. I have a Macbook Pro and have just bought Mountain LIon to update my Snow Leopard system. It was downloading fine but suddenly stopped saying that 'an error had occurred' and has a grey blank box at the side of it. I can't find any part download of the app. I have tried to look in folders but no joy. Does anybody have simple step by step instructions for a beginner please?

    Try it this way ...
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select Mountain Lion. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • Mountain Lion won't download from app store even after I've purchased it

    I have purchased and tried to download Mountain Lion OS X but the icon just says "waiting" and in the purchases tab on the App Store  it says "an error has occurred" and I can't click anything. What do I do? I just want to download it!

    i have resolved the issue.
    I had to close down the App Store, re-open it, and in the purchases tab the error disappeared and the option to resume the download was there again. However, I have spent the last 3 days opening and closing the program, restarting my computer. There is obviously a problem with this because there are other users who've had the same issue. Its frustrating because Apple has already taken my $20. I could have easily gone to a store to buy it if I could.

  • Mountain Lion won't download. Any help?

    Hi,
    I have purchased mountain lion 3 days ago but I can not download since then. I see the icon saying "waiting" but there is not any progress.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks a lot

    [Assumption: You have functional Internet connection to your ISP and have Mountain Lion running by now.] If not:
    Stop the indicated "waiting" dialog. Logout of the App Store.
    Reboot.
    Sign back into the App Store and with the option key depressed, choose purchases. The Mountain Lion purchase should have an "install" button indicated. Try again.

  • Mountain Lion won't download from App Store

    Hello, I'm on the Mac OS X 10.6.8 and am currently trying to download Mountain Lion onto my computer. However, after I've made my purchase nothing happens when I try to download the software from the App Store. I've tried restarting my computer and App Store. Any ideas?

    The loading bar for Mountain Lion actually showed up when I restarted my computer by using the software update. The downloading bar is still empty but I'm guessing I simply can expect quite some time for it to download?

  • Mountain lion won't download, stuck at 142mb

    I've been trying for months to download Mountain Lion, it keeps stalling at 142mb. any ideas?

    The Apple Store idea is probably the best. Do you have access to another network using another ISP (friend's house?) where you can try the download again? Needs to be someone who has a Mac. You can then put the download on a USB stick and install it on your iMac.
    You can also try resetting the App Store.

    Started downloading Mountain Lion form the App Store, and it stopped around 53MB. Says "a problem has occurred. No additional info and it won't resume. Any advice?

  • TS1702 Help! I can't download apps on to my iPhone 3gs - I have done all latest updates but still it won't download an app. Everytime I press to install then enter apple password it just reverts back to the app. I'm only trying to download free apps.

    Please see title above

    well, after about 10 minutes, iTunes decided to download iBooks again this time without error. I synced my iPhone and now it's there. Weird! Must have been a store glitch with that app for a bit.

    I have a MacBook Pro bought in dec 2009. Currently has mountain lion osx installed. Worked like a dream until today. Randomly froze, so I restarted it. To find I got a grey screen. It wouldn't start. Also note my DVD drive doesn't work, but mountain lion was installed via App Store anyway.
    So here's what I done so far:
    tried resetting PRAM - No success
    Done disk utility. Disk verified with no errors. I even re formatted disk. - no success starting.
    Tried re installing mountain lion via download . It froze halfway installing -no success.
    Tried backing up a time machine backup from my USB hard drive. It froze at 1% - no success
    Tried booting from safe mode - no success
    Tried the command line boot - no success.
    Please someone help!

    Sounds like the hard dre has left the building, Died, in the Sh*tter, Gone to the hard drive resting place in the sky.
    Buy a new drive connect it to the system with a SATA to USB adapter and see if you can install Mt Lion on that drive connected externally. If you can then the drive inside your system has failed.
    Oh Wait!!!! You have the 2009 model. They are known for bad drive to logic board cables. So it may not be the drive itself but the cable going from the drive to the logic board. Do the same as above then if the system runs OK with the new drive connected externally install it in the system and see if it boots. If it does you are good to go. If it doesn't then it is more then likely the cable that hs failed.
    I would suggest you also SAVE a copy of that download of Mt Lion and create a USB install drive from it using Lion Disk Maker, once you get your system up and running.

  • I just downloaded the newest update for mountain lion. After downloading and restarting for installation, I got a message stating that  the update cannot be installed due to an error. Yet when I check I have version 10..8.3 and safari version

    I just downloaded the newest update for mountain lion. After downloading any restarting for installation, I got a message stating that the update cannot be installed due to an error. Yet when I check I have version 10..8.3 and safari version 6.0.3, which the update was for.  Does this mean that the update is iinstalled and the message was incorrect?

    Good timing! Oh well, at least you shouldn't have to update again for a while. It will be nice kickstarting your Mac with the very latest System Update knowing any hiccups from 10.8.2 would have been ironed out if they were going to affect your workflow at all.
