Mavericks Says "Downloaded" But Won't Install

As noted in the screenshot below, OS X Mavericks is listed as downloaded (which can't be possible -- it said 3 more hours to download then jumped directly to "downloaded" status).  Is there a way to restart the download from scratch?  At this point, I'm stuck.

Found the answer on my own -- it's a problem that occurs if the download for some reason is stopped or interrupted.  But in case anyone else runs into this, here's the solution:
1.  Go to your Applications folder.
2.  Find OS X Mavericks. 
3.  Double-click on the icon. 
4.  The App Store will restart the download.
Done.

  • OS X Mavericks says download but won't let me

    I am trying to download a version of Final Cut Pro and Aperature which needs OS X Mavericks upgrade.... it shows in my account but won't install or download the upgrade..... why and what can I do to get this fixed.
    Thanks!

    Hi...
    I currently show that I have 10.7.5 and when I went to the Mavericks it didn't do the command that it was downloading.   But when I go into purchase it shows it has downloaded. 
    I received a download code from a friend that works at Apple for Final Cut.... that also will not download.
    I also tried to do any upgrades to Lion that I may have missed and it says my system is up to date.
    In my Purchase tab it shows I need to Install Final cut but it won't install.... and it shows Maverick and says DOWNLOAD but when I click on either one it won't do anything.
    Could it be that the Redemption Code are from my friends configurations?
    Thanks!   Frustrated in Erie, PA

  • Mac OS X update downloads but won't install

    When I try to update Mac OS X combined update 10.7.4 on MBP, it downloads but won't install. I get a message that says it couldn't expand and may be corrupted. This has happened multiple times now.
    I thought it might be due to lack of space on the hard drive so i cleared some space (there's now at least 49GB space) and it still won't work. I also have updates for Motion Supplemental Control and Final Cut Pro X supplemental that do the same. Tried doing it one by one, and tried downloading myself but the problem seems to be the expanding installing not the downloading.
    Anyone else had this problem and solved it??

    You may have a permissions issue that's preventing access to the downloaded files.
    Open Disk Utility from the Utilities and click the "Repair Disk Permissions" option.
    Once complete, try installing the update again.

  • Logic Pro X additional content will download but won't install

    Hi,
    I have Logic Pro X (10.0.1) installed on my 2012 Macbook Pro i7 2.6Ghz 8Gb Ram. I am able download the addition content but now just hangs & it has only installed the producer patches, surrond reverbs, garage band 11 sounds & instruments & the jam packs which I believe were there from my Logic Pro 9.
    I have read support forum threads where peiople have downloaded it in smaller sections 1 or 2GB at a time with success, I have tried this & in smaller sections with no success.....it just still hangs saying "installing Orchestra" or whatever section I'm trying to install.
    Can anyone help?
    I went through **** to install the program itself as the initial installion just hung too on the "Essential Sounds and Instruments for Logic Pro & Mainstage", I finally installed after getting the content download link from a support thread.
    Apple support is s***, I emailed about them about the download (after spending my £139.99) only to wait 24 hours for them to say delete it & try again (like we wouldn't have though of & done that already). After repling to say that & waiting another 24 hours they said here is an email address to our Tech support or a premium number to call WFT!!!!
    Now the additional content won't install, between my Macbook Pro & Logic Pro X the money I've spent - Apple are taking the ****.
    Please can some one help?
    Thanks

    Install on my Core2Duo 17" MacBook Pro went flawlessly, but install on my 8 Core Mac Pro suffered this problem.  Many thanks for the solution Don, it worked for me ;-)
    I am trying hard to supress an ironic chuckle though, reading other posts in this thread .... suggesting that people should call Apple Tech Support and expressing incredulity that people weren't doing this as their first option.
    Well I can say say that after several calls to Apple Tech Support, amounting to several hours on the phone, and well over an hour on the phone with them today, I was informed that this problem is a known bug, and that Apple are working on a solution.  They couldn't tell me what the bug is, what machines are affected, or what else might trigger it, or when a bug release might be due.
    Their troubleshooting steps basically involved various reboots, repairing disc permissions, reseting the user home directory via terminal, booting up in recovery mode (but not safe mode as per this solution) trashing various preferences files, and, as a final step, uninstalling and reinstalling from scratch.
    Only when all that failed was I told that there is a known bug that Apple are working on.
    I came here to see what the community was saying, as the Tech Support guy did say there was likely to be some info on the forums.  Lo and behold, a solution is posted and it works.
    Why are Apple's Tech Support (in the UK at least) not aware of this?
    Oh well, at least I'm up and running on my Mac Pro now.
    Thanks again Don,
    Cheers,
    Nigel

  • HT1338 Itunes 11 & Mac OS X 10.7 downloaded, but won't install. I get message "folder cannot be created"

    I've downloaded updates for iTunes & Mac OS X 10.7. But they won't install.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The latest iTunes version is 11.0.1 version. 11.0.2 does not exist. Have you tried opening Apple menu > Software Update and install iTunes 11.0.1? If it doesn't show up, you have already iTunes 11.0.1

    For your next step I would recommend you review your installation logs to determine the cause of the failure.  You can find details on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • IOS8.02 downloaded but won't install

    New software won't install on my iPhone 5 because it is unable to verify because I'm not connected to the internet.... which I am, and using Safari!
    I've found other threads about this but the "resetting" suggested doesn't work.
    Does anyone have any ideas what I can do? Is it anything to do with updating from iOS 7.1 (I didn't install anything after that).
    Thanks for any suggestions, this is driving me bonkers!!

    Hi J Breel
    That's what worked for me. It downloaded all 900+ Mb using wi-fi, but would not verify when I went to install. Said I wasn't on the internet (but checked using Safari and I was!). I switched the wi-fi off on the phone after many attempts, and tried using 4G only.... it worked immediately. I don't think it was a coincidence!
    I was at work and maybe our wifi network had some weird setting that wouldn't allow verification.... no idea really, but give it a go, nothing to lose! Make sure you download on wifi though..... it's a big file for 3G!
    Good luck!

  • Did in app purchase in garageband to get sound loop and it says downloading but won't finishing loading

    i purchased garageband for free on the mac app store on my mac book air and then paid £2.99 in an in app purchase for sound loop it had a blue bar that is now filled but it stays like that and still says downloading it has been like this for 12 hours how do i fix it????

    I'm not sure I can make sense of this but without asking too many questions, you can resolve your question by contacting iTunes direct.
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    But they will be wondering about the reference to hacking and you feeling bad about getting something for free.
    Best step in my view is to make sure you don't get similarly involved in future.  You must know roughly what you were doing.   Then writie it off to a not to be repeated experience.
