Installing Yosimite on iMac 2010.  Download complete.  Install stopped half way.  Help!

iMac 2010.  Downloaded Yosimite.  Now installing  Install appears to have stopped at half way point.
What next?
Thanks!

Ok, so I talked with a friend who loves Macs.  And fixed it!  Easy.
1.  Restart by holding down power key.
2.  Begin Yosemite install again.
All is well.  Took 30 minutes.
Issue solved.

    Hello:
    I would trot back into the Apple store and have them fix the problem (or call Applecare with a warranty issue).  There is no sense in you wasting your time trying to troubleshoot things on a new computer.

    Ok will check, as of right now I have 82.57gb free, that's plenty of space will check the disk though using disk utility. Also I am now downloading the update from the apple website instead of going through software update

  • HT1657 why does every movie I download stops half way and says err=-50/err=-39?

    Why does every movie I download stop half way and say err=-50/err-39? I also have internet connection that is really good and it keeps saying to check that

    Perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

    downloaded songs go silent half way through, how can i erase and re-download?

    All you need to do is go to the iTunes store, and then go to purchased in the right side of iTunes store.  It is under the quick links.  Then you will be able to download the past purchases there.

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Why does my itunes downloaded song cut off half way through the song

    I downloaded a Jorney song "Seperate Ways" only to find out that the song cuts off half way through. What should i do?

    I'm having this exact problem now with an iPhone 4 (not the 4S) and running software 6.1.3 with iTunes version 11.0.4.4. - The songs play fine in iTunes. In some instances I brought in the songs from CDs, in other instances I purchased from the iTunes store meaning I can't simply convert them. In either way they play silence on my iPhone around halfway through and for the remainder of the track.
    I have attempted a full restore from a backup, and then reloaded all of my music, same songs, same problem. I don't feel a manual restore would help because that means reprogramming every single app, and the music would be reloaded the same way so what difference could that make?
    Just to add insult to injury my protection plan ran out about 2 weeks ago and my phone otherwise works fine, so this can't possibly be worth purchasing another pricey plan just to be allowed to TALK to Apple.

  • After upgrades iMac will not completely restart.. lost please help

    Hi, I am new to the forum but I have been scouring the net for an answer to my problem. I have found some similar problems but nothing exact so I decided to post to make a deadline. Please help.
    Yesterday night I got one of those apple software updates. I cant remember what it was for but it was fot 3 different things nothing out of the ordinary. Once they were installed I had to restart my computer. I did this and when I did my computer booted up and froze at the blue screen after the white/grey apple screen and will go no further.
    Heres where it gets a little different from other posts I have found. I have a wireless keyboard and mouse so I cannot run the start up disks or get to safe mode. I bought a different usb mouse and keyboard today and am now able to put disks in and out of the disk drive by holding down the left button during start up. The only problem the keyboard came with software that needs to be installed to make it work. So it is still impossible to connect to a keyboard. So I still cant hold shift, control or c to get to safe mode or run my mac disks.
    Im not sure where to go from hear. I have a seagate external harddrive backing everything up so hopefully I didnt lose everything. Any help would be great I am lost.
    Thanks for your time

    When you get the new keyboard, start up from Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
    Reboot, then repair permissions from your hard drive.

  • Music will not download completely!!!! Help please!!

    I have purchased music from iTunes and it will not download on my PowerBook or on my Toughbook (WIN XP). The windows version gives me error 403---my Mac just hangs up midway through the first download. I have downloaded hundreds of songs in the past--no problems. (well, occasionally, but a restart or even a retry has helped). This time nothing I do is working. I have cleared the svi cookies, but still nothing. No problem accessing the music store and making purchases--just can't download them. My wife's iBook is working though--it downloads the songs from iTunes no problem. All computers are on the same wireless network--Cox Cable internet. Any suggestions would help. Thanks.

    Now getting error 502--was not getting this before. And BTW---all of the computes mentioned above are using my account with the same CC info. My wife has her own iPod, and uses it exclusively on her computer. I only update my iPod on the Mac, but both my Mac and my PC are doing the same thing--didn't know if this additional helps.....

  • I just tried to download OSX Lion and half way through the download it said there was an error. I don't have to buy it again do i?

    After buying it once and having the download fail, the App store says I must buy it again. Is there a way around this??
    <Edited by Host>

    No need to  re purchase..
    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 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.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I have a ipad 3 with ios 5.1.1 and it will not update to ios 7. I keep getting a software failed message and the download takes 13 hours and stops half way through. Any help?

    I have an ipad 3rd gen with ios 5.1.1 and I can not update it to ios 7. It will take 13hours and when I try it stalls out halfway through and says software update failed. I have tried everything. Any help?

    it actually needs more space than that.  The file size is your 65 mb is probably the ota incremental file size.  The full package is 700 mg, and the system needs 3 gig of free space to unpack and install.

  • TS1424 i downloaded an album from i tunes, but it will not play back correctly,tracks stop half way through and skip to the next one. what can i do???

    I downloaded an album from i tunes, but it will not play back correctly,
    it starts a track and then stops randomly and jumps to the next track
    and then does the same thing ad ainfinitum! What to do??

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over the last few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them 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 they re-download 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 album and use the 'Report a Problem' link.
