WILL NOT DOWNLOAD, IT SAYS AN ERROR OCCURRED.

Trying to download and update with Mojave and keep getting that an error occurred, timed out, etc. Does anyone know what I can do?

Are you using WiFi to download, that may be the issue, are you able to use a cabled connection to your router,

USB to ethernet or Thunderbolt to ethernet adapter. If you can only use WiFi then whilst it is downloading then

do not use the Mac whilst doing so and limit any other devices access to your internet connection.
