Go to the App Store menu bar click Store > Sign Out


Restart your Mac then launch the App Store then back to the menu bar click Store > Sign In


Then try downloading El Capitan.



If that doesn't help, a Safe Mode boot deletes system caches that may help.



Top left corner of your screen click the Apple  > Shut Down.


After your Mac shuts down, wait 10 seconds, then press the power button.


Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold down the Shift key. You should press the Shift key as soon as possible after you hear the startup tone, but not before.


Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator.


Once you are in Safe Mode, go back to the Apple  menu. From the drop down menu click: Restart

Then try downloading El Capitan again.
