App Store :: No Progress Indication When Downloading Purchased Item?
Jun 25, 2012
I just purchased Final Cut Pro X. All I see at the top of the window is a little spinning circle. No indication of how much is still left. Is this normal? When I purchase a song on iTunes it gives me a progress bar. How long should I wait?

I purchased OS X Lion this afternoon and started the download, 5 hours later it's only downloaded 1.5gb and it's saying it's got another 9 hours to go!!?? The App store is downloading at 105kb/s (that is Bytes per second, not Bits per second). If I download something from iTunes or dropbox I get about 800kb/s. Why is the App store so slow?
I am trying to rent some movies in the iTunes store but regardless of what account I use it keeps popping up with the message of: "This item cannot be downloaded on this network, you must connect to a wifi network or download it on your computer". My computer is already online, I am able to access the iTunes store, just not download!
I've just purchased a game in the app store, but it's been a bit weird as I had to confirm some details, and now I can't actually work out whether the game is downloading or whatever. Can anyone advise me as to how I can see the progress of the download or whatever?
I purchased Lion back in December but was hesitant about installing it. Now I have no choice but to install it because of the whole iCloud thing. I went into Applications on my Macbook, then to Purchased content, clicked "download," but nothing is happening. Everything on my laptop is current and up to date and ready for Lion. What should I do?
why wont the mac app store show me the download progress bar anymore? im using Version 1.1.2 (92.8) which seems to be the newest. i today bought a game on the app store which is 15gb. and in the mac app store under "purchased" it wont give me a download progress bar. even in the help file of the app it is said to be there next to the app just bought in the list. however. lauchnpad does give me a progress bar. which is just rather sloppy because it indicates nothing on speed or time remaining.   how come mac app store removed the status bar?Â
I was at work today and purchased an HD TV Show on my computer. The episode downloaded I watched it then I deleted it. The space is very limited on the work computers otherwise I would have kept it on there. I go home and tell iTunes to get my newest downloads, and it only downloads the Standard Definition version of the show I purchased.
I've recently had my external hard drive stolen (police dealing with) which housed my iTunes content I've got all of my music on my iPhone so can easily get that transferred back onto my replacement ext HD, i've already come to terms with having to put another 6 months aside to re-rip all my DVD's to be viewable on my computer and ATV, which just leaves my purchased iTunes movies and TV Shows.
i normally rent a lot of movies from itunes to watch on my TV, but a couple times i have bought certain films, but when i log into my itunes it then tries and download the said movie(s) and i cancel it, because 1. this slows down my internet connection lots and 2. i dont want the movie stored on my MBP!Â

I just purchased an album, but one of the tracks didn't load. It is greyed out and there's an eclamation point next to where the track should be in my library. What should I do?

I got my open item computer at Best Buy and was using it as a back up computer. Then I just now started using it as my primary computer and I have noticed that iPhoto is no longer on it. That is wrong if I have to purchase these programs myself that should already be installed.

Time machine failed in progress as my hard drive failed. I have an "in progress" file on my external harddrive that is about 160 GB. I would like to try and load this back onto a new harddrive. Migration assistant is not responsive nor does Time Machine recognize the external drive when connected.
I am looking to get the Government employee discount. I know that if you buy the item from the store you will need to ID. If you order it online you do not need any kind of proof. Will that still apply if I what to pay for it online and pick it up at the store? Will I just need what is required for any regular pickup?
I had a hard drive crash in my iMac. Lost all data because my external back had failed two day earlier! Anyway, how do I get stuff I purchased back on my machine, such as iWork, and more that I can 't recall right now.
I recently discovered that an app I previously purchased is no longer on my iPhone or iMac. When I log in to my Apple account and look at my purchase history it clearly shows I paid $4.99 for it on March 11th 2011. Now if I go to the App Store to re-download it I see that it's $4.99, I assumed once I clicked on "Buy" that a pop-up would appear notifying me that it has already been purchased and ask if I would like to re-download it for free. However, when I click on it a pop-up appeared asking if I would like to buy it and that $4.99 will be charged to my credit card if I do. Has anybody heard of this happening before and more importantly does anyone know how I can re-download this app without paying for it?
I purchased Call of Duty 2 on the app store, played it through and then deleted it, expecting that I could download it again when I wanted to play it again. That has been possible with other games - and Call of Duty 2 - but now COD2 isn't in my purchased list, and the App store asks me to pay again for it.

Our non-unibody MBP is flickering bluish colors on the left half of the screen. It happens randomly, but frequently. It can be stopped by pulling the screen towards me slightly, enough to put tension on the hinge, but not actually moving it towards me. Is this an indication of the faulty GPU or the ribbon connecting the screen?
I have just purchased a game from the app store. The download was interupted. When i restarted the laptop I went to the purchases section of the app store to resume the download. The only option there now though is to install. If i click it the button dims for a few seconds then is bold again. Not setup sequence starts. Is there a way of restarting the download?

I just got my hands on a retail copy of iWork '09... Installed, updated and works great! But when I launch App Store on Mac, I do not see it under "purchased". I have even gone in Pages -> Register Pages and registered the iWork Suite with Apple. How do I get it to show in Purchased in the App Store.
