OS X Mavericks download has paused and will not restart. How can I get it to restart?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
First, see if the download is paused and if you can resume it. To do so, open the Mac App Store, go to Purchases and press "Resume" next to OS X Mavericks.
If the download does not carry on, I would recommend you to restart and start the download all over again.

My book download has paused and will not download

Trying to download a book to my iPad 1 and it has paused and will not restart. I have since successfully downloaded another book ( sample) and also it's downloaded too my phone- I cannot delete the partial download - or sync from my iMac
Any thoughts?
many thanks

Hello Louise,
I would be eager to download a book I purchased as well. I found a couple of resources that might help with downloading this purchase.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted. You can use the steps in this article:
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
If the book does not download after following the steps in that article, I recommend trying to download the book from the list of past purchases. As long as you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to purchase the book, you will not be charged again. You can find the steps to do this in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you are still not able to download the book, I recommend reporting this issue to the iTunes Store:

Drag it to the trash icon in your dock. This is a disk image, and you need to "eject" it, to get rid of it.

I inserted a mini CD (3") and it will not eject, how can I get it out??

I inserted a mini CD (3") and it will not eject, how can I get it out?? I tried a little shaking, and restarting and holding the mouse pad down. I heard the spinning but still cannot eject or read the disc.

Short of taking it to a repair shop for extraction, you can shut it down and try shaking the devil out of it.

Iphoto has crashed and will not open. Can I reinstall Iphoto without loosing my existing photos?

Iphoto crashed and will not start. How do I save my existing photos and videos and reinstall Iphoto?

reinstalling will not cure this - you need to rebuild your library- Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database
And the ONLY way to "save" your photos and videos - and every other file on your computer - is to always have a good current backup - sooner or later your disk will fail and with no backup you will lose everything

Mavericks download was interrupted and will not resume

I'm upgrading from 10.6.8 that is current and updated to Mavericks. I began the download, all was well until about 3/4 the way through and my internet connection was interrupted. I received a warning window saying that the download was interrupted and I lost my internet connection. I reconnected to the internet and I cannot seem to get the download going again. The app icon that was downloading on my icon bar is no longer there, the App store does not give me the option to resume the download, I've followed multiple walkthroughs detailing how to restart an interrupted download to no avail. The App store 'purchases' tab has OS X Mavericks on it with the option to download and nothing else. I've clicked the download button to either restart or resume and I get the gray wheel of fortune and when that stops spinning, nothing happens. The gray download button turns white while the grey wheel of fortune is spinning but shortly afterwards it returns to a dark gray. I've navigated back to the OS X Mavericks page and the download option says 'downloading' but as far as I can tell, nothing is happening. I have no icon on the launch bar showing that it is downloading and my network monitor does not show that I'm downloading anything. Also, going to the 'my account' tab in the App store and looking for 'hidden downloads' is unsuccessful. When I open the 'my account' tab, I don't even have the option to view any downloads, only account information and my account nickname.
For reference, I'm deployed over seas with a poor internet connection. This is now day 3 of trying to download OS X Mavericks, so any help would be appreciated.

I had the same problem, then I noticed it was downloading even while it was showing paused. After clicking resume, look at your Launchpad icon and see if you have a progress bar below the icon.

My app downloading has frozen and will not download?

I was trying to download an app and nothing happens. Have a blank square that just says "waiting".

Hello pjfrancis,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with downloading an app.
I recommend tapping on the app to change the status to Paused and tapping once more to initiate the download of the app as suggested in this featured discussion:
App updates won't download on my iPhone, they just say waiting.

I downloaded iTunes to a new computer and authorized that computer but my music is grayed out and will not play, how do I get access to my music?

I installed iTunes to a new computer and authorized that computer but my music is grayed out. How do I get access to my music?

Is there a way to change that?
You can easily set up the iPod to automatically sync to your current iTunes library (or just do a Restore), but that will replace the iPod's existing content with content from your current iTunes library (erasing the iPod). If your old computer was "retired" gracefully and you were able to transfer its complete iTunes user data to your new computer, there is no problem because all of the songs on the iPod now are already in your current iTunes library. However, if there are songs on the iPod that are not in your current iTunes library, those songs will be lost. That may be a problem...
If you want to preserve what is on the iPod, you can try setting the iPod to Manually manage music and videos. I believe you can do that from an iTunes library that is not the iPod's currently associated library. Select the iPod in iTunes, so that you see its Summary settings screen. Check the box for Manually manage music and videos. (If iTunes puts up any warning about erasing or replacing the iPod's existing content, Revert the change and cancel out.) Click Apply. The iPod is no longer set to automatically sync. But you can add new content manually to what is already on the iPod. And the songs should not be grayed out.
However, you cannot use iTunes to transfer songs on the iPod to your current iTunes library (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). If there are songs on the iPod that are not in your computer's iTunes library, you should eventually "offload" those song files because your iPod can easily break, become corrupted, or get lost. iTunes syncs content in one direction only (from computer to iPod), but there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like iPod "transfer," you should get some links, including a CNET article on the topic.
Once all of your songs are "consolidated" in your current iTunes library, you can set up the iPod for automatic syncing to that library.
