Download OS X El Capitan dmg

Have a look in your Application folder for Install OS X El Capitan.app, move it to the trash and delete.

Also have a look in Launchpad and see if there is a Mac OS X icon, if so click and hold till it wiggles, click the 'x' and delete.

Restart and relaunch App Store, can you download now.

If not, does your Mac meet the system requirements.

App Store download only.

You can't. You can only download El Capitan through the App Store.

The download button in app store is greyed, and no download at this moment, thanks

Well, I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues downloading from the App Store, but that's the only place you can get it.

Hi,

I need to know how and where to ownload OS X El Capitan in dmg format, so I don't have the Mac connected to the internet.

I have a developer account, also.

Thanks in advance.

I don't understand the question.

How can you download and not be connected to the internet?

It downloads as "Install OS X El Capitan.app"

Once it is downloaded you do not have to install it, quit the installer. It will sit in your applications folder by design. From there you can create a bootable SDcard / USB installer and then you can always delete it from the applications folder.

I have a Mac Pro (2009) but the download button is greyed, (I delete Osx El Capitan in Application folder)

And did you empty the trash?

Yes

Try to have Spotlight re-index your hard drive: Spotlight: How to re-index folders or volumes - Apple Support.

Ok, Thanks

You're welcome, let us know if it works.
