Reinstall of Lion - says - "Item temporarily unavailable from the App store. Please try again later."

I am trying to reinstall Lion after erasing my hard drive. Erase went smoothly, but now when I try to reinstall, after prompted to enter my Apple ID and pw, it says "Item temporarily unavailable from the App store. Please try again later." HelP!l

Sometimes there are just server problems with the App Store. Only thing that I can offer is to wait a day or so and try again and, if still no luck, contact the App Store support folks - http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/.
Good luck,
Clinton

  • Downloading from the App Store the message "There was an error in the app store.  Try again later (4)'. Then 'unexpected error'.

    Downloading from the App Store the message "There was an error in the app store.  Try again later (4)'. Then 'unexpected error'.
    I've been getting this message now for the last couple of days.  I can download other apps on my phone with the same apple ID but have now experienced this on my Mac firstly when downloading Yosemite immediately after being asked for my ID password, and then having tested with a couple of other apps, so it's not related to the download.
    I'm using OS X 10.9.5 on a Mac Book Air.
    I've shut down on a number of occasions and tried again
    App Store is version 1.3 (201.7)

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and test. If there's no change, restore the item you deleted from a backup, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, you may need to recreate some of your settings in the Network preference pane.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

    Disable anti virus software.
    Turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security (or Security & Privacy) > Firewall
    If that doesn't help, open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Now here:
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Click Go
    Move these files from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    com.apple.appstore.plist
    com.apple.storeagent.pllist
    Now here:
    ~/Library/Cookies
    Click Go
    Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
    Empty the Trash, try the App Store.

  • Itunes is temporarily unavailable at this moment. Please try again later.

    This is so frustrating to the point I am deciding to leave itunes for good. I have been struggling with my account for days and i just want access to it again. I have gone as drastic as deleting all my itunes , reinstalling itunes, searching the net and still no luck.
    Please has anyone had any luck finding a solution for this?

    Based on the numerous posts regarding iTunes and the App Store, there appears to be an issue at Apple's end. Although Apple has not provided any indication on the cloud status page.
    Do not change your settings.

  • I just downloaded Mountain Lion for my MacBook Pro from the App Store.  Can I also download it for my iMac without paying the $19.99 fee again?

    I just downloaded Mountain Lion for my MacBook Pro from the App Store.  I was curious if it is possible to downloand Mountain Lion to my iMac without paying the $19.99 fee again?  Not trying to be a cheapskate, just curious if App Store purchases are universal like iTunes Apps.

    You can re download Mountain Lion for free on all your authorized Macs using the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select  Mountain Lion.
    Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.

  • "Your request is temporarily unable to be processed.  Please try again later" iTunes Store

    I have a user with a new iPad2, who has set up an iTunes account.  It takes her username and password, which it recognizes (it fails if she fat-fingers it).  Then it says that it is a new account, and offers her the terms and conditions which she agrees to, and then it takes her to the screen asking for her personal info and credit card info, which she fills in.  Then it pops up a message from the iTunes Store that says "Your request is temporarily unable to be processed.  Please try again later." 
    She has tried this multiple times over the past week, same error each time.  This morning, just to vary things a bit, we tried logging in to her account in iTunes on her iMac.  (If nothing else, a real keyboard and mouse is less painful...)  Exactly the same behavior -- it clearly knows who she is, bringing up address information, etc. when she puts in the right username and password.  But it will not complete the signup with the iTunes store, so she cannot get applications (even free ones) downloaded on to the iPad.
    If I sign in with my appleID and password (set up years ago, and with iTunes gift card credit on it) it simply takes it and works -- but not on her credentials.

    Found this discussion:  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3603097?start=0&tstart=0 which was really helpful.  The problem is that we were trying to change this person's credit card associated with the AppleID from her personal card to her company credit card.  Going to http://store.apple.com/us/account/home and trying to Edit the credit card information at least got us to a more useful error message -- it complained about the credit card billing address.
    So we went to Plan B, and created a new appleID for her, following these instructions http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534 to get her an appleID without a credit card.  It then happily completed the registration process, and now she can download free apps.
    When she needs to buy an app, I'll probably be back.  (Sheesh, apple, this should NOT be this hard to give you money!!!)

    Hi there !
    The process of AquaDan88 had worked for me (one million thx to him/her for the tips !). Now, I've to say something (maybe usefull for you kevinfromnorman). It is very important that you create a new account (not necessarily in USA. In my case, I'm in Switzerland and I've created a new account (without credit card into the app store in my country). The important thing is how to create this account:
    You absolutely MUST follow this Apple process to create your new account (without credit card) since the point 2) of AquaDan88 procedure. Follow carefully what Apple wrote on the page I've put the link here under
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534?viewlocale=en_US
    Doing this will for sure resolve your problem (as he resolve mine right now).
    A last information. For those that already have an second account created, don't try to use your second account in place of create a new one. It is really important to CREATE a new account and not use one already created one ! I've tried with an already existing account yesterday evening and it won't make the deal.
    By the way, I'm amazed by the answer you received from the iTunes support kevinfromnorman !!! As soon as you've recover your Genius, answer back to their email with the right solution ! ;-)

  • HT2731 your request is temporarily unable to be processed. Please try again later

    Let's see if anyone has any ideas here. When I went to create an account on iTunes, I can get all the way to the credit card screen and then when we click "done" and pop up window comes up and says "your request is temporarily unable to be processed. Please try again later". This message comes up last 2 days.
    Thanks for any help!

    The same thing has been happening to me on my iPad and my MacBook Pro - I try to purchase and get an error on my MacBook (Error 5002) while on the iPad, I get the recurring request to "confirm" My purchase that never completes. This is making me crazy!

  • Lion is no longer available from the App Store, but I haven't gotten it yet.

    I purchased Lion from the App Store on October 27th, but then realized I could not download it yet due to bandwidth restrictions at school (though I did download it once, but the file corrupted and I went over the bandwidth limit, causing my Internet to be shut off).  So I'm finally home for Thanksgiving, and went to download again to install it this time.  However, the download is no longer available.  It doesn't show up as purchased, and when I tried to log in and download it, it wanted to charge me another $30.
    Is there any way that I can redownload this again without paying again?
    Thanks in advance,
    John Walsh

    Alright.  I resolved the problem.  In case anyone else has this issue, my copy of Lion got moved to 'hidden purchases'.  Unhiding it fixed the problem.

  • HT1349 cannot get lion to download and install from the app store

    the lion os app took 2 days to down load then did not install from the app store.

    Do you mean the install button stays on install, or do you notice a loading bar under your Launchpad icon?
    This may help...

  • I bought OS X Mountain Lion a few days ago from the App Store but it will not download. In the purchased section of the App Store it says 'an error has occurred' in red letters next to the download button. I have been charged for it but not downloaded it?

    If i click on the download button in the purhased section nothing happens. if i go into the App store and click download on Mountain Lion there it looks like it is starting to download and opens Lauchpad but it never moves off 'waiting'.
    Any help would be great.
    Thank you !

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
