Q: Mavericks download Links Broken
I need to be able to point people to a location allow people to download Mavericks if they have never done so previously. Currently the link to download Mavericks from the Apple store is broken. A majority of Apple Users that are upgrading to YOSEMITE from a previous system are having issues with YOSEMITE. (see commits on many websites about YOSEMITE.)
If someone wants to upgrade, downgrade or reinstall Mavericks they should be able to access the OS in the Apple Store. You can still get older versions:
If you need older versions of OS X, they can purchased on the Apple Online Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/help/downloadable_software#MacOSX
http://store.apple.com/us/help/downloadable_software#MacOSX
- Snow Leopard (10.6)
- Lion (10.7)
- Mountain Lion (10.8)
- Mavericks (10.9). Learn how to upgrade to OS X Mavericks. ( <<-- The Mavericks Link now links to YOSEMITE.)
The direct link I had for Mavericks gets message:
- Get OS X Mavericks right now from the Mac App Store (direct link)
- https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id675248567?mt=12
Clicking Mavericks Direct Link gets Message:
- Connecting to the Mac App Store...
- Item Not Available > The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store.
I myself have downloaded Mavericks previously so it shows up in my App Store and when attempting to re-download it I get an "Error 1004 please try again later." & "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (13)"
Please reinstate the Link for Mavericks so Users that have issues with YOSEMITE can still upgrade, downgrade or reinstall Mavericks.
