Lion download stuck in pause mode

The hard drive on my MacBook Pro had to replaced this week and in the process of rebuilding what was on it, I'm downloading Lion. However, it seems to be stuck in pause mode. In the Dock, it shows the :Lion in the circle, but it;s ghostly transparent. When I put the cursor over it, it says OS X Lion-Paused. I can't seem to figure a way to unpause it. I've evern try to drag it to the trash to start over, restarted the machine, nothing seems ot work.
Any ideas?

Nevermind. I figured it out.

    How do I remove an app from my ipad that is stuck in paused mode?

    Tap the app so that it can complete then delete it by holding your finger on the app until it starts to wiggle then tap the "x" in the left top corner. This is the iPad guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPad_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf

    Hi Peggs,
    Try this:
    Open your iBooks app on your iPad
    Select the Store Button at the top
    Select Purchased at the bottom
    You will see your AppleID on the right at the bottom, then Redeem, then Support
    Click on your Apple ID, and when the AppleID window comes up with the options, Sign Out
    Then Sign In again and try redownloading your book
    Hope this helps!

  • HT201272 iBooks download stuck on paused

    When I try to download a book on iBooks it gets stuck on "paused".  What must I do?

    Hey kave621,
    It sounds as if you purchased Pages from the Mac App Store and have not been able to complete the download and installation, a frustrating situation to be sure. Let's see if we can get you back on the road.
    This article describes what you can do to resume a download from the store -
    Mac App Store: Buy, download, and install apps
    In particular see the section titled Pause, resume, or cancel an app download.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Happy computing,

  • HT1338 My installation of Mountain Lion is stuck on "paused" at the bottom of the screen, HELP!!!

    I started to install Mountain Lion onto my iMac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I now have a “ghost" picture of a mountain lion at the bottom of the screen. When I hover my mouse over it, it tells me that it is paused. Whether it will pounce or not I don't know, but it seems to have paused for hours. I can't find a way of making it move. Is it stalking me silently? Will it wake up and growl loudly when I'm asleep? I think we should be told.
    Does anyone know how to wake up a sleeping Mountain Lion when it is trying to replace a Snow Leopard?

  • After upgrading from snow leopard to lion, mail stuck in upgrade mode?

    How do I get the upgrade to STOP so I can try to open Mail again without having to trash the application. Or is that the only way? and then how do I get the Mail application? Thanks for any help!

    Go get a powered USB hub and try that. Lion may have issued a fix for devices drawing too much power, by cutting them off.

  • Mavericks download stuck in waiting

    I'm trying to download Mavericks and the app gets stuck in my launchpad on waiting. Sometimes after sitting in "waiting" it just stops trying to download all together. How do I fix this?

    Well I'm in a right old pickle with it; trying to install on my snow leoparded out (10.6.8) Imac (7,1) here's what I've done so far:
    Attempted download - stuck in waiting mode.
    Attempted download from the purchases tab - stuck in waiting mode
    Signed out and back in to the App Store, unhid purchases and attempted download from the purchases tab - again stuck in waiting mode
    Looked in the applications folder in an attempt to remove any part-downloads - no sign of them.
    Installed the latest installer - to no avail.
    No Launchpad either to try as this install is Snow Leopard.
    Network connection is fine - downloaded and installed mavericks through the router onto my other Mac... Macbook Air - Lion.
    It's been six days now on and off I've been attemtpting this - very frustrating.
    Any help gratefully appreciated.

  • Mountain Lion download getting stuck at 79MB w/ no internet connectivity issues

    I just purchased Mountain Lion via the App Store but everytime I try to download it, the download gets stuck around 79.4MB and the download time just gets longer and longer without the download actually pausing. Pausing and resuming have the same problem, the file size just goes up to 80+MB before dropping back down to 79.4MB again. I have tried canceling, reopening the App store and re-downloading several times already without success. Please help! I went through Mountain Lion download problems in the forum but I can't find a solution. I'm downloading onto an iMac on a broadband Wifi personal home network and can surf the internet without problems and as quickly as usual. For reference, my connectivity speed at this time is usually enough to download a 300MB file in 15 mins to half an hour.

  • My mountain lion download has stuck at 53.25M.

    Mountain lion stuck in dowmload mode. Wont go past this , despite resarting my iMac. Can anyone help?

    I was also getting stuck at 53.25mb and tried several solutions on the forum.
    A possible reason I have found is if you are (as I am) on BT Broadband using a 2-Wire Hub because there is apparently a 2GB download limit (not heard this of this before). I read this on MacRumors and that BT plan to release a firmware upgrade to sort the problem.
    In the meantime I switched to another non-BT wireless network in the same building and hey presto the download is flying.
    Haven't tried the hotspot shield solution.
