Oct 23, PM in response to gb In response to gb This was it for me. Mavericks had been hidden. Easy to restore if you go and look at your account on the store. And apparently - things that have been hidden can't be redownloaded. So once you unhide it - downloading it again works.

Thank you. Oct 23, PM in response to gb In response to gb Well, I'm getting closer using this solution. Oct 24, AM in response to mytwilight In response to mytwilight I had to log in and log out about 10 times, but now it's finally showing the "downloading" button. So here's the solution for others looking for one: 1 Go to "view my account" and show the hidden Mavericks purchase again. User profile for user: pixeldreamscape pixeldreamscape.

Official OS X Mavericks. Un-archive the zip archive and you will get the app Installer. NOTE: If you get a damaged message when launching, no need to worry. I hit the "X" button which made it disappear. However, if I go back in the App Store and try to download it again, it still does nothing..

Though it is a bit different now. Then, it does nothing. MikeChristensen - sorry for the late reply, although unlikely to help have you tried this: 1 Checking for unfinished downloads in the App Store menu see the latest edit to my answer above 2 Signing out of the App Store altogether and signing back in and repeating the download process.

I tried your answer, but it didn't fix the issue.. MikeChristensen - have you checked your Launchpad? Show 6 more comments. No such file. I ran the command anyway, and it didn't solve the problem. Thanks anyway. Hm, Im not sure whats going on then. Have you tried downloading disk doctor from the app store, clear all of the caches and then redownloading? If that doesnt work maybe sign out of icloud, reboot, sign back into icloud, reboot and then try redownloading. Otherwise you have deleted it by cancelling the download.

If Apple customer service cannot help, your other option is to find a Mavericks torrent and make yourself an installation dvd or usb, which would be quite legal in your case.

Example : thepiratebay dot sx. Yea, I might just take it into the store. Apple Care is expired, so I'm not sure if they'd help me for free.

They also might have install DVDs there, which I can't imagine would be very expensive. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group.
