Is there a time limit on downloads from the AppStore

I have only wireless Internet access, with a monthly quota of 10GB after which the transfer speed becomes even worse than usual. Frequently downloads fail after a considerable time (which doesn't help with my monthly quota, of course). As an example, I have just tried to download iTunes v12 (with my monthly quota exhausted) and that failed after about 3 hours and 160GB. Frustrating and makes something like downloading Yosemite virtually impossible.
Does anyone know whether the App Store places a time limit on downloads and then terminates them? That's the impression I have. Sometimes I have had more success using the Speed Download program but it isn't always possible to find the necessary URL.
Thanks for any help.

i dont think there are how many hours are we talking about?

  • I was wondering, is there an application I can download from the App Store that allows me to plug in a USB cord from my Iphone and print from any computer?

    I was wondering, is there an application I can download from the App Store that allows me to plug in a USB cord from my Iphone and print from any printer?

    Sorry but no. iOS does not support connecting a printer via USB, only via WiFi, and without such support there's no way a developer can build an app to provide such capability.

  • Can't download from the AppStore or update any existing apps, also can't update the OS version as OTA, Any help ?

    Hi
    I'm using the iPad mini with iOS 6.1.3
    I have a repeated Problem:
    I think it belongs to connecting to apple servers at a whole.
    When I use the AppStore and tries to download or update any existing app, I get this message " can't download from the App Store "
    Also when I try to update my iOS it says FAILED
    This happens every 2 weeks and lasts about another 2 weeks
    I don't know what's wrong or how to fix it, Any help ?

  • The speed of downloading from the AppStore is slow after installing iOS 5

    After installing iOS 5 I have some problems with downloading apps from the AppStore. The speed is very slow. The speed on wi-fi is 10Mb. Now I'm trying to update the garage band on my IPad 2 but I think it will take me an hour or something like that
    What is the problem?

    Sometimes a reset can help...
    On the iPad tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    The restart the iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Make sure there's enough free space on the iPad.
    Connect to your computer, launch iTunes
    Select the iPad under Devices then select any of the tabs, Summary etc.
    Storage space is displayed at the bottom of the window.

  • Is there a way of "merging" songs in iTunes. Several times, I have downloaded from the Internet, or recorded from CDs, then found the tracks broken up to appear as separate "Albums". I have a 5-movement symphony, which appears as 5 separate songs?

    Try posting in a more appropriate forum, as this has noting to do with itunes U - the place where University/college/museums post education material.

  • Game Downloaded from the AppStore Crashes Entire Computer

    Hey there, I have a Mid-2009 13' MacBook Pro running OSX 10.7.3. Today I downloaded Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic from the App Store. It downloaded and installed without an issue. When I go to run the game, the game immediately freezes, giving me the pinwheel/beachball and the icon remains frozen in the tool bar. After a minute, the entire screen freezes with the only usable function being my mouse (I can't even adjust the brightness or open my force quit window for example). Anyways, every time I do this, I'm forced to force restart, and every force restart takes around 5-7 minutes, way longer than usual.
    I'm really lost, and i'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction! Thanks.

    I am having a similar issue.  I have a mid 2010 MBP 15" with 10.8 and I get the occasional crash on the lowest video settings.  I think it may just be a bug in the game. Bugs me every time.

  • Iphone unable to download from the appstore

    Hi everyone,
    I have an activated iphone 3G with firmware 3.1.3.
    Whenever i am in the appstore and try to download a simple app (compatible with my firmware) it doesn't download.
    when I press the "free" icon, it changes into the "download" -icon. If I then press the download icon it returns to the free icon. This happens all the time, with different applications.
    Also I am unable to remove an installed application (installed via itunes) on my iphone. The icon starts shaking, however when I touch the "X" it doesn't respond..
    I have reset my iphone and it still doesn't work.
    Does anybody have an idea?

    If you've tried an iPhone reset, and no change, the next step is to restore from your most recent backup, followed by syncing your content back to your phone. If no change after restoring from backup, the next step is to restore as a new device in iTunes, followed by syncing your content back to your phone.

  • I get "an error has occured" when trying to download from the AppStore.  I can not re-download as the button is not active.

    I encountered the response "an error has occured" when I downloaded Maverick X from the App Store.  I can not try to re-download as the download button is not active.  I have tried rebooting and to get the download from apple.com but it keeps redirecting to the App Store.

  • Can the app downloaded from the appstore run on mac book pro

    I don't have iphone or itouch. Can i run the downloaded application on my macbook. Is there any software to do that. Thanks.

    Acorrding to the technical specs, it shoots mpeg4/h.264... However, I see other places mention it is MTS...
    Do you still have the original file structure intact? Or do you have just individual movie files? whats the extension? .MTS, .MPEG4, MOV?
    If MTS and you no longer have the original file sturcute intact, you need to use Clipwrap, if you do have the original files structure, you may be able to import using Log and Transfer....

  • Can't Update Apps from the Appstore

    I have all the latest OS updates for my macbook pro and it seems like I can't update my apps that I have downloaded from the appstore.  I have logged into the appstore and iTunes and also have made sure the information in the account are correct and up to date.  When I open the appstore I click on updates and it says, "All Apps Are Up to Date" but when I click on "Purchased," it clearly shows that there are updates available.  When I click on update it says that I need to be signed in in-order to update the apps.  I AM signed into the appstore and iTunes.  What is going on here?  I tried emailing support for Apple and they couldn't even help me.  I know there are people having the same issues.  Can someone point me to the right direction or have any advices to fix this issue?  Its very annoying unistalling an app and to reinstall just to update it.  Thank you in advance.

    I had just posted a thread regarding a similar issue, except it's attempting to "load" all of my apps again. This includes loading old apps that were previously deleted off my iphone. It's annoying. I can't even access these apps to delete them. This renders my phone useless...
