Need to download OS 10.9.0

Due to other program concerns, I have not upgraded to Mavericks, those concerns have been reconciled. I need to find a link to download the basic operating system, OS 10.9.0. Please help, I can't find one in the Apple Support area.

Unless you downloaded it before Yosemite came out, you can't get it. If you did, log into the Mac App Store with the Apple ID you used and click on the Purchases tab.

Upgrading to Yosemite


You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.


Upgrading to Yosemite


To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
