  • OS X Mavericks does not download, infact shows downloaded but it doesn't appear anywhere in Launchpad and neither can I download it again

    I am having trouble downloading the OS X Mavericks. In my initial attempt to download the update from the App Store, it started downloading but stalled. It wasn't paused, but just stalled. I restarted the Mac and tried to install it again. The next time the download commenced but stalled after reaching a certain point (it appears to have tried to restart from where it left off earlier), but the download doesn't continue. Says "Mac OS X Mavericks failed to download". Now on deleting the icon from Launchpad, when I try to install it again from the App Store, it shows downloaded. How do I restart the download process and install Mac OS X Mavericks? I am currently on OS X Lion 10.8.5.

    Yes, I do have an external drive, which I now disconnected and restarted the Mac to try installing. Didn't work.
    I then kept it disconnected and restarted in Safe Mode, which again when trying to download showed "Downloaded". So didn't work.
    Then tried one final time by plugging the external drive back in, and starting in normal mode and it appeared to have started downloading once again.
    Unfortunately, it didn't give up so easily and the download is now stuck at 996MB.I think it's really testing my patience now.  I tried looking up the communities for a similar issue and see that others have had their download stop at 996MB, but it seems to be an ISP/Router related issue, and I don't have alternatives for either.
    Have written to the local Apple retailer for support, fingers crossed.

  • Mavericks does not download, it just stays in "waiting"

    I'm not downloading anything currenlty (apart from the OS X) but the app just stays on "Waiting". When I restart the mac, the icon dissappears until i press the download button again in the App Store. But it won't change from waiting.

  • Updating snow leopard 10.6.8 to maverick will not download on mackbook air mid2009

    Hello,
    Updating Snow Leopard10.6.8 to Maverick will not work with my Macbook Air mid 2009
    It opens  window with list of macs which will work(so mine too!) but it does not download is impossible.
    Can anybody help me!

    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.

  • IOS 8.1 Does Not Download All iCloud Mail/ Keeps Cache?

    Hello,
    I have setup and enabled an iCloud e-mail account on all of my devices and was successfully able to use the Mail app in Mac OS X Yosemite to copy mail from my Yahoo! inbox to my iCloud inbox.  All e-mail copied from Yahoo! Mail appears in the OS X Yosemite Mail app as well as in the iCloud.com site, however, my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 5 both running iOS 8.1 does not download all of the mail from iCloud.  I have tried the following on both iOS 8.1 devices with no success.
    - Disable iCloud mail and re-enable
    - Sign completely out of iCloud and sign in again, then reconfigure all iCloud services including mail
    The result of both steps is that the incomplete list of e-mail in the iCloud inbox just reappears in the Mail app instead of downloading from iCloud again.  It looks like the incomplete list of e-mail is stored on the iOS device and signing out of or disabling iCloud mail just hides it; re-enabling or signing in merely shows it again.  This appears to work differently than my Yahoo! Mail configuration where if I sign out of or delete the Yahoo! account and reconfigure, iOS downloads a fresh copy of all e-mail in the inbox and all other folders.  Here are my two questions:
    - How do I get my iPhone and iPad Air 2 to download ALL e-mail from my iCloud mail account?
    - Are my suspicions true? Does iOS actually store a cached copy of iCloud mail on the device when the service is disabled and just "redisplays" it when re-enabled?
    Thanks!

    I had the same problem. My iCloud it's a mess since the iOS 8.1 update.
    Probably your iCloud isn't working too.

    I can no longer open any attachments that are sent to me. I click on and get cannot preview (but have had this for ages). I am clicking on download and nothing happens. It does not download. I clicked to install a new version after updating and clicking repair. But still the attachments won't open including invoices I have received today. It is all attachments not just pdfs.

    Then most likely it is not caused by Adobe Reader.
    Anyway, perhaps someone has some idea, if you give us some details: operating system, browser, email client, ...

  • TS3276 How do I open Microsoft word documents in a Email since Maverick does not recognize MS Word?

    How do I open a Microsoft Word cocument in a Email since I upgraded to Maverick. Maverick does not recognize MS Word, Excel and Power Point.

    MS Office 2008 and 2011 work fine in Mavericks. What version are you using? You can always use a program such as Open Office to open the docs.

  • TS1559 My iPhone 3GS will not now join wifi.  This is a very recent problem and I have tried everything so hope someone can help.  I go Settings then Wifii, it picks up network no problem but then does not download IP Address.

    My IPhone 3GS will not now join wifi, this is a very recent problem.  It finds my network but does not download the IP Address hence when I load password Join remains grey.  I have tried all the fixes suggested I.e.  network reset, airplane on then off but still nothing.  I also have another iPhone of the same type and an iPad and they are just fine so I know it is not a router problem.  Please please what do I do?

    Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

  • There is a website that does not download, but it is not the site since it downloads ok on my iphone and ipad.  Does anyone know what this might be?

  • Aria2 does not download multiple files at a time

    I'm trying to speed up my system upgrades by using aria2, but it won't speed up anything as it does not download multiple files at a time.
    As per this wiki post, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Im … erformance , "using aria2", I've installed aria2 and added the line
    XferCommand = /usr/bin/aria2c --allow-overwrite=true -c --file-allocation=none --log-level=error \
    -m2 --max-connection-per-server=2 --max-file-not-found=5 --min-split-size=5M --no-conf \
    --remote-time=true --summary-interval=60 -t5 -d / -o %o %u
    to the options section in pacman.conf. Pacman still works, but it isn't sped up. When pacman -Syu'ing, a normal line shows:
    #1 SIZE:1.3MiB/2.0MiB(63%) CN:1 SPD:50.0KiBs ETA:15s
    What's going on?
    P.S. I use the line reflector -l 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist before doing a system upgrade.

    Using aria2c will download files over 5MB with multiple connections but will not download multiple files at the same time. Pacman calls aria2c with the first url, waits for it to finish, then calls aria2c with the second etc...
    If you want to download multiple packages simultaneously, see http://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/pacman2aria2/

  • Album artwork does not download, album artwork does not download

    i have windows 7 album artwork does not download even new stuff what could be happening?

    It's possible your album artwork isn't there and cannot be obtained as this album no longer appears to be offered for purchase by itunes.  Unless I'm overlooking it, when I go to the itunes store and enter "Santana", "Carlos Santana", or "Food For Thought", nothing comes up.  I'm thinking if this is an album no longer for sale through itunes, then you won't be able to get that album artwork the way previously have.  Unfortunately, I'm not saavy enough to know if it's possible to get the album artwork via another means.  But maybe someone else reading this post is. 

  • ABS does not download the entire package tree

    I want to compile php-apache in order to work with apache24 from the AUR but when I run abs it does not download the source code of the php-apache package.
    That's the case with many packages as well.
    After updating pacman database and running abs:
    ls -l /var/abs/extra|wc -l
    2030
    pacman -Sl extra|wc -l
    2808

    Yes it does.  There are split packages for which one package build can make several distinct packages.  For an example, see vim's PKGBUILD.
    Fetch the "php" PKGBUILD to rebuild php-apache.

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
