Who knows what "ages" means to you, or what speed Internet connection you have, or what else is happening on your computer or network.
Pages/iWork are not small so it can take a while. Sometimes heavy demand at the Apple end can slow their server as well.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately you cannot re-download rentals, allow it to finish and enjoy it and consider the situation for further rentals.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • Why is it taking so long to download and watch on apple tv 3gn

    I'v bought an Apple tv and its been nothing but trouble. Iv purchased Downton Abbey series 3 three days ago and have only been able to watch one episode as its going to take hours to finish downloading. Why is this happening? Why does it take so long? I know people that download illegally and get it much faster. But this is not what has sparked my anger, this come when i have spent 3 hours downloading the third episode and my partner says she want to watch the last 15 minutes of the first episode, I couldn't believe it i had to download it again, this is not on and something need to be done with this. and before anyone asks Nothings wrong with our broadband we on the optic. I hope theirs an answer for this ridiculous technical problem.

  • Lessons taking too long to download - and then fails to complete -why so cumbersome please?

    You have to turn on 3G/4G/LTE and be in a coverage area for such to happen.

  • Why is it taking so long to download. Is this normal?

    Why is it taking so long to download. Is this normal?

    How long is "so long"?
    Some product downloads are up to 1.6GB; that can take some time - very much depending on your Internet connection.  Check http://www.download-time.com/
    For a test, I just downloaded Illustrator CC 2014 (1.6 GB), and the download completed within 13 minutes (and I am 10,000 km away from the Adobe download servers).
    Try downloading from http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-2014-direct-download-links.html - make sure you follow the Very Important Instructions on that page.

  • Why is it taking so long to download InDesign CC?

    Why is it taking so long to download InDesign CC?
    If I am not able to download the new applications, due to an extremely slow connection, does Adobe have other means to help me obtain the software?
    Are there any 'other' solutions?

    Yes, I was able to finally download two out of three of my applications. I waited three hours to get two pieces of software, and I still need to download one more application.
    While talking to the customer service department in India, I was told that I could not get help in bypassing my slow Internet connection. Even though I have been a loyal and law abiding customer for thirteen years, Adobe's customer service department treated me like a piece of crap. All I wanted to do is get my applications on cd, so I can bypass the buggy and long downloading periods. I tried desperately to explain: (1) I have been a loyal customer for thirteen years, (2) I bought and committed to a yearly subscription, (3) I have followed Adobe's legal rules since day one, (4) I have no problems with the software's DRM, and (5) I love and support Adobe products.
    Regardless about how much I sympathized with Adobe's position, I could not get your customer service department to 'care about me'. I walked away feeling depressed and defeated.
    As a result of going through a horrible customer service experience, while also struggling with the change to cloud, I started to think about a change in career. Why do I want to be a graphic and web designer? I spent a crap load of money on an education, so that I can become a slave to the industry's dominate software maker. If it was not for the fact that Adobe's software is the industry's standard, the recent events with your customer service department would have made me walk away.
    It sucks that your company has a 90% strangle hold on the industry I love.

  • Why is it taking so long to download iCloud onto new phone

    Why is it taking so long to download my iCloud onto new phone

    What does download iCloud mean? You don't download iCloud. You download the content that is in your iCloud backup to your phone. If you have a great deal of content in the backup, it can take a good bit of time.
    Define "so long". That doesn't mean anything to anybody here. It's a relative term and we have no idea how much time "so long" is to you.

    Once an item enters the download queue, the user cannot remove it. Either let it complete the download (easiest) or contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the Contact page  and ask them if they'll remove the item(s) from your queue for you.

    If you think the download is going to take too long, then hook it up to iTunes on the computer you sync with. It takes very little time and far less memory to do it that way.

    Not Reset all content and settings but instead Reset Settings.
