i want to download this software but when ever i fill up the terms and conditions at last app store says that the item is temporarily unavailable, so when it will be available?
MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
Is the software you are referring to Yosemite?
Is this a Mac that is second hand? If so, what is the EXACT model/year?
Ciao.

W80036VN66E - this is the serial number @ OGELTHORPE
Model is- Mac book pro( 13-inch, mid 2009)
the main issue is the availability of the software( OS X Yosemite) I have to download it to startup my system, and it's not available on App Store temporarily, how how to proceed further ?? @ OGELTHORPE
You have to get your Apple ID associated with the MBP. You do this by erasing the HDD and entering the original OSX.
Your MBP came with Leopard (10.5) and you should have been given the installation disk by the seller. If not you can use this Snow Leopard Installation disk (which you will need anyway):

After you have erased the HDD and installed Snow Leopard, then you should run the Snow Leopard combo update:

That will then meet the requirements to create an App store account with your Apple ID and install newer operating systems.

I Preferred visiting Apple service centre this time over your guidence@ OGELTHORPE
they charged me their service charge for my problem, well Its fine, I thank you for guiding me 🙂
Then you were in good hands and got it done correctly. Good luck. 🙂

Apple has removed both Mavericks and Yosemite from the App Store.
All you can download is El Capitan for free or buy Lion or Mountain Lion for $20 at the Apple Store.
