Incomplete download - but app store thinks next step is to install
Hello
After purchasing Lion i started the download. Beeing on a mobile internet connection I encountered several connection losses, spawning a pop up with an error message wich i could either "cancel" or "retry" - after retry i could stop/resume the download and it continued.
After approximately 1.5 GB downloaded i lost patience and after the next connection loss I choose to hit "cancel", but the download progress bar disappeared and the button changed from "stop" to "install" and of course, clicking it gives an error (internal server error 500) folowed by a second pop up that the query could not be finished.
Is there a way to make AppStore note that this is still an incomplete install?
I think it is a bug, not handling the "cancel" properly but coldnt find a location to inform apple.
Console shows a lot of error messages related to AppStore, here are examples( they tend to be repeated a lot ...)

Well, solved it. The widely availiable hint to press "alt" when clicking did work, although not on the external keyboard, but on the MBP's built in one.

Trying to downloads App store application for the sole pupose of downloading a purchased OS update 10.7. We cannot download the app store until we have a software update but need the software update to download the app store.
There is no Mac App Store app that you can download. The Mac App Store is installed with the update of previous installations of Snow Leopard to version 10.6.8. v1.1.
Does your Mac have OS X Snow Leopard installed? If not, you have to install it before you may go further. -

Hi exyankee,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, an app is stuck on waiting. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

X code got downloaded from app store but can't find Xcode.app on my mac
X code got downloaded from app store but can't find Xcode.app on my mac
Check your Applicaitons folder.
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 < your profile
Xcode's minimum requirements according to the App Store under Information is OS X v10.7.3 or later.
If you are running v10.7.2, click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update.
That should bring your Mac up to date to v10.7.4.
Then try re downloading Xcode.
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 which apps you want to re download. 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. -
I have tried to install lion last night and it stopped by slow internet connection. I paid through App Store and i tried again today but APP Store show installed. How can I install again?
If you cannot resume the download, try to start the Installation Application in your /Applications Folder. If that does not work, delete the Installation Application and try to reload it. If that still does not work, contact Apple would be my best tipp

I bought student mac air through university account, Iworks were included when I purchased mac air. But there are no iworks and It's not free when I tried to download from App Store. OS was OS X Mountain Lion 10.9 When I received it. Is it because of OS? I upgraded to OS X Mavericks right after I got it.
Today, I went to the mac store and asked the staff about above issue. Apple obviously sent me a mac air which was manufactured before October 2013 and therefore, iworks and OX Mavericks weren't installed. I have refund for around £45 to purchase iworks. However, I wasn't happy with what Apple actually did. I asked for replacement and refund the one I got and getting the new one from store so I can use mac straight away. however, the refund takes 5-7 working days. The staff on the phone told me if I have enough money I can just buy the new one in the store and get refund later. So I gave up! I was so disappointed with Apple. Even though I use the mac now, this was not the one Apple promised when I purchased online. if anyone would like to buy a mac, Please go to the actual store. DO NOT buy a mac through MAC ONLINE STORE!!! I strongly recommend! I feel like I wasted my time because the company doesn't keep its promise.

But the itunes guy says, he cant help me. Who can? I can use my apple acounts, why?Try here first > Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" alert appears
