It depends on the speed of your internet connection.

No, you can redownload it for free again from the app store.

Why is download time taking so long? (76 hours to go!)

downloading adobe download assistant for photoshop elements free trial and download time currently states 76 hours to go! Why is it taking so long? Help please!

Try downloading directly instead. If you still see a problem with the time it is most likely something related to you internet service.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

Why is mountain lion taking so long to download on my macbook pro? It's been the same for about 30 minutes

I downloaded the app and about 30-45 minutes ago and it is taking forever to download. Is this normal?

Depends on the speed & type of internet service you have which you never mentioned.

I am downloading lion from the app store and the downloading is taking a long time. also my internet stopped for a few minutes. will that affect the download content.

i have done an online payment for the new mac os. and the downloading is taking a long time . why is it so. its been more than half a day.
also my internet was down for a couple of minutes and so does this affect the integrity of the software and would it be corrupted.
if the software is downloaded is corrupt will i be able to retrieve another copy or have i lost my money in thos.

My download took about 4 hours on a 6 Mbps connection, and I noticed from the winking router light that it paused from time-to-time. The download was successful. It operated perfectly, probably because I did a clean installation rather than the simpler upgrade.

Without seeing an execution plan of the query it is hard to suggest something useful. Try insert the result of UNION ALL to the temporary table and then perform an aggregation on that table, not a CTE.
Just
SELECT CollectionDate,Bankname,DSLIPS AS DSLIPS,SUM(BN) AS BN,SUM(COINS)AS COINS FROM

HAVING COUNT(DSLIPS)<>0;

Why is my ipad taking so long to charge. I upgraded to iso7.01 and it takes forever and I am not happy

Have you reset you iPad,or tried deleting the apps that are crashing and then opening them again. Or closing them and reopening them. Also clear Safari and see it that helps. There have been a few other posts like yours , and I can't figure out why it happens to some ipads and not others. I have not even seen what happens with a "crash" occurs and I use mine all the time. Good luck.

This may have something to do with your Internet connection, the size of the video you are watching or the amount of items running in your Mac at the same time.

Why was my my account charged when I canceled lion ? the download was taking to long.

I was having problem with downloading lions on my Macbook pro. I started the download about 7:00 it was near
10:00 and it was no where close to being finish doing the time I was waitng on the process, I thought let me read
the reviews.... and for the most part it wasn't good !!! I thought to myself I'll wait until they can fix the problems that
are being said about lion so... I canceled and I was still charged for a product I don't have and I want my money back
until they can fix this problem people are saying there experiencing with lion I'll buy it n a few months.

Lion is 3,74 GB so it might take a very long time to download. If you have the chance to have an Apple Store in the area, go and pay it a visit, they have a wireless lan, and you should be able to download it with a fast connection. Apple won't fix a problem since there is nothing to fix, it is just a big big update.

Why are my songs taking so long to download?????

I just bought songs from iTunes fromt he first time and they are taking forever to download. I have a 6GB ipod mini and I only have 189 songs on it. Its taken over 2 hours for 11 songs of about 2-4 min. to download. Why is this taking so long and is there anyhting i can do to speed up the process?

Not sure what you are downloading, but it isn't a 4MB music file within 2 seconds.
Even if you could get a true 56K speed (which does not exist) for dial-up, each 4MB file would take you 10 minutes to download.
Most 56K modems are limited to around 40-50K at their fastest.
Your times for the 11 songs seems about right.
-- 11 songs @ an average of 3 minutes in length & 1MB/min = 33 MB total to download
-- 33MB @ 56K = 1h23m
-- 33MB @ 34K = 2h17m
You are probably getting between 30K and 42K of real download speed from the modem.

Why is Mountain Lion taking over an hour to download?

I've purchased the Mountain Lion update, but it's taken over an hour to load only 1 dot. Is there something I should be doing?

Liz187 wrote:
I'm replying to my own question to point out my connection is through TimeWarner Cable; normally everything runs fast.
It's worth noting that because Mountain Lion is 4 gigabytes, it's probably many times larger than anything else you usually download. And how fast something downloads is affected by your service level. When downloading most web pages and movies, most people would not notice the difference between, say, a 3 gigabit per second service and a 20 megabit per second service. I, for example, have a 12 megabit connection and that usually means most files seem about equally fast, but a massive system installer like Mountain Lion usually takes most of an hour to download due to its sheer size. I realize I could cut the time down if I paid more per month for a 20 megabit connection or faster, but since it's only occasional that I download something this big I don't want to pay more.
The speed of cable like Time Warner can be (I hear) variable depending on things like how many people are online in the neighborhood. My 12Mb DSL connection is just about always running at its rated speed, but a lot of areas can't get DSL faster than 3Mb or so. In other words there are a lot of reasons why a download as large as an OS X system installer might be slow.
One important thing that can help: Make sure you have minimized the downloading or uploading of anything else on your computer or any other device in the house. For instance, if your spouse is watching a movie on Netflix, your kid is downloading music, and your own computer is uploading an automatic backup to Carbonite or Backblaze, your download won't be able to use the full bandwidth of your connection.

Why is the game taking so long to download

when i purchased deus ex: human revolution from the mac app store it kept saying error occured and then it started to download and now it is taking too long to download the finishing time says 6-8 hours i have tried restarting the download but it is still taking too long what should i do?

How much RAM do you have?
You might want to build it out to the max.
Macs are not gaming consoles, as such are not maximized for such use. They are computers, not gaming consoles, that is not to say they can't play games. Just understand that they will generate more heat and if you are using a game that is using a high number of CPU/GPU cycles, you may have to use an additional cooling apparatus.
All the best
