Download macOS Sierra problems

Hello!

I tried to download Sierra since last night. It is 2.75 GB right now, but then instead of having only 20 or so left min to download, it kept longer and longer. It is 6 hours right now. Then last night there was a popup that says that an error has occurred while I was trying to download it.

I know this isn't the internet speed because I just checked my speed and everything seems to work very well. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Servers probably overloaded, try not to do any heavy Internet traffic while it is downloading.

If you use WiFi you can try to connect via the ethernet cable instead.

    How can I scan from HP Envy 4500 to computer after downloading macOS Sierra?

    Hello wdemetris,

    Thanks for asking for scanning helps here in the Apple Support communities. I understand how it is important to have access to your scanner and am happy to offer help for this.

    As a precaution, we always recommend that you have backups to make sure that all your data is safe. You can perform a backup using Time Machine and an external hard drive. Use this article to help make a backup of your Mac: use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac.

    Then, in accordance with article help: printer and scanner for Sierra, El Capitan, Yosemite, and the Mavericks macOS software, the HP Envy 4500 e-all-in-one is supported for printing and scanning. The drivers must be installed, but if not, if it please go to the App Store and check the updates tab to see if there are updates for HP. If there is, please install.

    If you have only general questions about how to get your updated scanner in place or how to scan pictures, please check out these two articles: macOS Sierra: implement a scanner & macOS Sierra: scan images or documents. If everything is configured correctly and you still have problems scanning, please visit this help article: macOS Sierra: scanning troubleshooting.

  • I tried to download macOS Sierra for the last hours on my Mac, but it is still holding still to download. Should I download the El Capitan instead? All sites tell me that I should update my Safari.

    I tried to download macOS Sierra on my macbook pro iOS 10 for a few hours and it still has several hours to go. Should I just download the Capitan instead? All sites tell me that I should update my Safari or I wouldn't even through this disorder.

    You must complete the download of Sierra. It is a very large file and will take some time, especially on a slow Internet connection.

  • Shortcut in macOS Sierra problems

    Since my upgrade to Mac OS Sierra, in many programs (Safari, Photos, etc.) I get in trouble when using shortcuts. When I use any cmd shortcut in Safari, I get an error message (sorry, it's in German, but I guess that's maybe the reason for the bug happening at all):

    When I click on "Fortfahren", everything works normally.

    In Photos, the cmd shortcuts seem to work normally, but know when I export images and create a new folder, after the file naming, pressing enter crashes the entire application.

    I don't check in different languages, but it could be that they are not the case where English is the primary language. Similar problems have popped up with older versions of Mac OS X / Mac OS, the differences in behavior and errors according to the main language being German or German-Switzerland. Maybe Apple should make some more tests on the location before the release of macOS?

    Hello

    I have no problem with my German version.

    Have you installed the Extensions? Turn them off and try again:

  • macOS Sierra problems with screen sharing

    Hello

    After update to Sierra in two of my Macs, I can´t use the screen sharing. I used to use my second computer using screen sharing, but now, whenever I connect I see the split screen but active areas for use on as sleep, restart and turn off keep its original position. This means that if I like the closing down of the remote computer, I need to press just left... really strange sleep.

    I'm trying to connect to remote VNC Android and the appearance of the screen split also and with the same problem.

    Anyone has the same problem or an idea how to fix?
    Thanks in advance!

    Solved!
    Omission of base: after the descent of the Sierra update on both computers, forgot I manually start the.app after the update to the same date (a few minutes before). This cause the problem.
    I launch the.app server run OK and no problem with screen sharing.
    Maybe not to repeat this mistake, but just in case it's useful, I leave my explanation.

    See you soon,.

  • The MacOS Sierra problems

    So, I've updated for Sierra today, and everything seems a lot at first, but I now have two fairly large problems:

    (1) the computer is not picking up one of my sound, internal or external devices.

    (2) there is this weird constant flickering everywhere on the screen, and things like opening a folder form the dock go layered with lots of glitter instead of both.

    Anyone got these questions or knows how to solve?

    Restart several times will usually start to settle in place various glitches related to new updates.

    Was able to download macOS Sierra, but do not have a prompt to install it.  Mac App Store says it is downloaded, but nothing more.  Ideas?

    If you receive a message that it cannot be used, as opposed to simply crashing or running flakey, it is fairly well established that the version that you have installed does not work with Sierra.
