IOS update has been downloading for over 24 hours

I started the update for my IOS yesterday and it hasn't completed.  It has been stuck at about 75% for almost 24 hours now.  Will this eventually complete?

  • Installing Software Update has been running for over an hour now, anyone else having the same issue?

    Installing Software Update has been running for over an hour, anyone else have the same issue?

    Hopefully it's been resolved by now - I have no idea how large each one of those files are. The progress bar tells you; FWIW, I only download one at a time - makes it easier and faster and you can choose to do the next one when you have time.

  • Lion has been downloading for over 3 hours.  When will it end?

    I have been downloading Lion since 3 hours ago.  Does it ever end?  How can I check for progress.  Don't like not being able to see the progress. :-(

    Kit_cat,
    Since you're still downloading, you have the opportunity BEFORE you run the installer to capture and save the installer file. So, don't start the install until after you grab the InstallESD.dmg file and burn it to DVD. This way you always have the ability to install without re-downloading.
    Here are the steps to get the InstallESD.dmg file.
    Let the download finish.
    Open Finder, navigate to Applications and you should see the OS X Lion Installation App.
    Right click on the OS X Lion Installation App and select 'Show Package Contents'.
    Copy the InstallESD.DMG to your desktop.
    Launch Disk Utility and click the Burn button
    Select the InstallESD.dmg file from your desktop as the image to burn. Insert a blank DVD and wait for the DVD to burn.
    After you burn the DVD, you can continue with installing Lion.

  • Can I interrupt an automatic update to iPhoto? If so, how? And how can I stop automatic updates? This current update has been running for over 4 hours now. I have a MacBook Pro w/OSX 10.9.1

    Can I interrupt an automatic update to iPhoto? Also, how can I turn OFF  automatic updates?

    as Larry said, just a caution about the App Store Preferences:
    If you do not want your software to update automatically, disable "Install app updates".  But better not disable the option "Install system data files and security updates".  If there are security updates available, it is important to get them installed asap.

  • How long does the newest update take? My Mac has been installing for over an hour. Don't know what to do?

    Installing the newest update for mavericks. Has been installing for over an hour. Don't know what to do. How long should it take?

    I went to Apple Chat and they lead me through a power down and start up with Recovery Disc Utility (Hold down  Apple and R keys when powering up).
    Then was instructed to run Disk Recovery and it showed HD was error free. Then a reboot started up fine to desktop and showed update to 10.9.2 had been installed. I am guessing the internet connection my have been interrupted during the install.
    Apple Chat folks are awesome and a short wait too.

    Shouldn't. Which update. Provide specifics on how and from where. If this is a new machine, it should already be running 10.8.4, ainxw that shipped one and a half months ago.

  • After upgrading to Lion, I went to open Mail and received the message that it needed to upgrade my Mail database - this may take a few minutes. The bar shows it is about 1/5 along and has been there for over 10 hours. Help!

    After upgrading to Lion, I went to open Mail and received the message that it needed to upgrade my Mail database - this may take a few minutes. The bar shows it is about 1/5 along and has been there for over 10 hours.
    I tried quitting and starting again but it just jumps back to the same spot.

    It is quite large, but I have tried two of the fixes suggested and things now seem to be moving along.
    (I was unable to seach properly before which is why I posted the question - it was a bit of a panic)

  • HT4718 am trying to install OS X Lion for the first time. So far it has been downloading for about 2 hours. How long should it take?

    Can anyone help please?
    Lion download to iMac has been running for about 2 hours and is still not halfway yet. How long should it take? should I cancel and start again?

    1500Kbs is 1.5Mbs. That is Kilo bits per second. There are 8 bits to a byte so if you divide 1500 (or 1,500,000) by 8 you get 187500 bytes a second. Divide 3.5GBs (3,500,000,000), that capitol B is for Bytes, by that 187500 you get 18666.666 seconds. Which needs to be divided by 60 to get the minutes and then again by 60 to get the hours.
    5.1851xxx hours.
    I use to have a 3Mbs DSL connection and it took me over 3 hours to download Lion. Now that I have a 19Mbs Cable connection it take about an hour to download and install.
    So wait it will happen eventually. If you cancel and start again your are still going to wait 5+ hours.

    Blinking orange will NEVER turn green. You'll have to UN mount it to see green.

  • New update has been installing for over 20 minutes

    I downloaded the new OS system update, but it has been on the installing software update for over 20 minutes with a moving blue/white activity bar.
    It is obviously hanging as installation on another machine in the house installed in a matter of minutes.
    Am I screwed? This is a business machine and I can't afford a loss.

    If you have it backed up then I would kill it. If you don't and the update is still progressing then leave it alone. Most likely it's taking a while because the system you are updating was dysfunctional.
    If you stop it and are still able to boot the computer then do the following:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    After this is completed download and install OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo).
