Hi ..


On a high speed broadband connection the installation takes about 45 minutes to an hour. Your Mac will restart automatically several times during the installation process.


If you are using Wi-Fi to upgrade, not using other devices using the same Wi-Fi network may help.

If your Mac is currently running either 10.7 Lion , 10.8 Mountain Lion , or 10.9 Mavericks, you can see download progress by clicking the Launchad icon User uploaded file in your Dock

You may be able to resume the download > Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads
