Can someone please point me in the direction of where I can get this download from? I've already tried the store & numerous options, including a "clean" install of Mavericks from the app store supply which keeps (framework) corrupting.
Thanks
The original release 10.9.0 is no longer available (to the public). If you have previously downloaded Mavericks, then you can download Mavericks (10.9.5) from the Mac App Store, under Purchased.
If all else fails, then have a full Time Machine backup ready (to optionally re-import your personal documents from, after install) and erase/reformat the disk using Disk Utility before a new clean install.

If you are getting corrupt downloads, try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. Also try the Safe Mode.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Furthermore: The main area of the issue is around USB & devices attached to the system, there appears to be something missing in later installs that was there in earlier installs… according to research & the way in which the operating system functions…
Thank you urquhart1244 for your reply.
I have attempted to download the OS from the app store, for which gives me Mac OS 10.9.5 (13F34) which cannot be "cleanly" & I mean cleanly rebuilt, it keeps corrupting (amongst all). And when placed over the top of Mountain Lion does not solve any problems as the issues I am experiencing continue to exist with software that works perfectly utilising the 10.9.0 (13A603) Build.
I do not use time machine & yes I have one backup built with 10.9.0 that works, all the rest have either failed or corrupted up to Sierra (test guinea pig #9 is ready to retire from paying for the privilege of using these tools), for which I have just noticed now becomes an option updating from Mountain Lion. Unfortunately until a stable build is built I may just have to regress to Mountain Lion & slowly migrate away from Apple products & services if they do not "allow" for this option. I have over the last 2 months (yes much time wasted & loss of productivity) rebuilt the system many times with no success to the issues, so whatever is missing between 10.9.0 & 10.9.5 (13F34) is the issue (ascertained and clearly defined) maybe I can just reverse engineer every system I have & create my own.
I'm about to attempt a Snow Leopard build to see if this assists; there is always Linux or Windows if push comes to shove. I was really hoping that the red alert would go off at Apple HQ & that someone would respond back with a click here & solve your problems now; but it appears they just want to keep pushing you onto the "next" thing that may or may not work…
It all began with the Sierra install (installer) Urquhart, like MD Worker (Spotlight) was going out of control stalling productivity (or doing something in the background that was causing issues or some type of conflicting process) USB could have been involved, locating exact process come secondary to solving, reformatting & removal.
Like that when iOS pushes through (when not allowed to i.e turned off) & stalls bluetooth functionality & you have to delete the installer & stop it from loading/installing. As for appearing vague I do apologise, I move like the wind & delete & wipe installs if they misbehave & start fresh, like some people change their underwear; I've managed to rebuild from Lion/Mountain Lion, it appears when rebuilding from these, the installer is more OS 10.9 based (according to the log) rather than 10.9.5 rev13F34 (less stable clean installing) & the system appears to be more stable at present, so will see how it all pans out, have cloned & kept new revised versions with many of the trial software installs previously tested left behind, which was what I wanted to achieve, so am a happy camper for the minute.
thanks Eric Root.

Please describe what the issue is with what USB device. The vagueness hurts effective help efforts.
You are welcome.
