Q: how to reinstall operating system on imac 7

Hi, I am following what Help is available

 

All goes OK  until I sign into Apple Store

(I am registered in UK but actually in Spain)

When I sign in to install OS X Yosemite

message says transferring you to UK Store

moments later, pop up says item no longer available, please try later

 

1st Q. What item is not available, the Apple Store or the Operating System

 

2nd Q. How to continue ??

iMac (24-inch Mid 2007), OS X Mavericks (10.9), not sure of O S

    The drive is not new but instaed was pulled from a different computer right? You have to erase it with a SL disc and reinstall as I mentioned above. Starting from the recovery partition linked to the former owner isn't going to work.
