I can't download El Capitan

I have an Imac from mid-2011, with OSX 10.10.5 yosemite installed now. El Cap won't download from the app store after several tests. I read all the posts and have tried a big part of it: I click on the download button in the window of El Cap app store, and nothing happening, no pinwheel, nothing. I can't find it in my applications folder or in the launch bar. I signed on and in the app store with no result. I checked the activity monitor and ran an EtreCheck. I do not understand these last two items, but I got them anyway. I don't NOT have a safe mode, because I do not understand how.

Here is some info that I hope will help.

My Mac: 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5 processor; 8 GB DDR3 memory at 1333 MHz; 911 GB free on the startup disk.

Activity monitor: 982 for 3 seconds with 1 millesecond DURATION between samples.

Etrecheck: DURATION 03:57, good Performance.

Also, I ran my own my Mac and restarted the computer. I also checked to see that the app updates are are produced automatically from the App Store.

Thanks for the help!

CleanMyMac is a worthless piece of spam. She much more night then well on Macs.

Please download and install EtreCheck from http://etrecheck.com/

Run it and post the report here. Maybe the EtreCheck report will indicate what CMM has managed to corrupt on your Mac.

    Can I download El Capitan into small pieces for several days, or need to download in a 6 GB file?

    N ° Apple does not split files into small pieces, you can go back. Why not visit the local Apple retailer/dealer and ask them to allow you to make a copy of the file. Don't forget to put a 16 GB USB stick with you that has been partitioned and formatted for Mac. Or you can ask a friend with a best data plan.

    Hi gr.

    Drag / drop photos to Pages ' 09 seems to be broken. Copy-paste works.

  • Since I downloaded El Capitan I get a notice of entry of device of 'Santa Barbara School District' saying that they can automatically configure my Mac!... I don't want that at all

    Since I downloaded El Capitan I get a notice of entry of device of 'Santa Barbara School District' saying that they can automatically configure my Mac!... I don't want that at all!... It appears every 30 minutes or so... El Capitan is safe?

    The computer has a serial number which is included in a registration of devices belonging to an organization. If you do not belong to this organization and that you didn't acquire the device with him, then there was an error or the device (or the logic board) is stolen. If the unit was purchased used, for example on Ebay, or if the card has been replaced by an unauthorized service provider, then it is almost certainly stolen goods. Otherwise, you must take the device to an Apple Store or to an other authorized service provider to have serial number has changed. May asked you proof of ownership.

  • After the installation of the El Capitan, I can't download my apps.

    Hello!!

    I need your help.

    This weekend, I decided to upgrade my imac (mid 2011) to the new OSX El Capitan. (I've been on Yosemite)

    I did a clean install via USB.

    Unfortunately, I do not have time to record requests.

    Now, I can not download my apps.

    Store Apple ask me to pay for them (iworks, mplayerx, etc.)

    I'm trying to take care of them in my time capsule, but there seem to be empty.

    Can you help me?

    Thank you very much.

    Damien.

    Be sure to connect to the App Store with the Apple ID, you used when you make a purchase. Then go to the tab purchased for the apps you previously purchased.

  • Just downloaded el Capitan and I can not get my mail!

    I just downloaded el capitan on my mac book and may no longer have my mail.  Also, I don't understand what happened to my slide bar for internet and mail.  Is it possible to get rid of this?  I can not us my quicken or my word more.  This is why I hate going to the following system.  Always a headache. I don't have days to understand this.

    First of all, can you open the Mail application?  What happens when you do?  Did you go to--> Internet accounts system preferences to check that your email addresses are there?  Two, what you're talking about when you say "slider bar for internet and mail"?  Three, what you are wanting to get rid of?  Four, what happens when you try open Quicken or Word?  Update to be compatible with El Capitan before you upgraded?

  • El Capitan install file corrupted, can't download on App Store

    I had intended to do a clean install of El Capitan on a 13 "-end Macbook Pro 2011, but a few problems:

    (1) the main issue: cannot re - download El Capitan from the App Store installation file, the button is gray, saying "downloaded". (After you have created a bootable USB key with it, I deleted it). I have I enabled the Debug mode to make sure that's not in the download folder, empty the Recycle Bin and rebooted. Still shows downloaded in tab purchase it is grayed out. How can I force download? Is there another place I can download it from the App Store? I found a few old messages of the forum about this problem, but these are old links that do not seem to work (the latest version is 8 December 2015). If you know how to do this, you can stop reading here...

    (2) complete the background: I downloaded and installed El Capitan on a bootable USB key (which I created). After reformatting the new drive, I rebooted holding Option and selected the bootable USB key, engaged in steps. Once I passed the user contract, chose the HD destination for the installation, etc. where it should normally take one hour or so install, I got the error: "this copy of the install OS X El Capitan application cannot be verified. It may have been corrupted or altered during the download. "So my reason for wanting to re - download, but cannot.

    (3) complete complete history: I got a new SSD and that he would do the clean install on the new HD. I backed up with Time Machine and installed El Cap on the new drive, hoping to skip the bootable USB. Just for security, I (fortunately) was also still the bootable USB key. When I went to start after the installation of the new SSD, I got the grey screen with a folder and a question mark in it, and was not at the start. I restarted with Cmnd-r and got a failure error when checking/repairing: "problems were found with the partition plan that might prevent from starting. Because I got the USB bootable, I recently reformatted and successfully verified. Which brings me to (2) above.

    I have the time Machine and the original HD, but hope I can avoid restoring the Machine time or take off again my computer and just re - download. Any thoughts? (Sorry for the length, but I wanted to give all the information in case there is something that I am missing).

    Thank you!

    Re-download the installer El Capitan:

    Unplug all external drives from your Mac.

    If you have connected the disassemble all network drives.

    Check your Applications folder. This is the place to get downloaded installers for OS X.

    Check your LaunchPad. If you find the installer of El Capitan in there, remove it.

    Open App Store.

    Disconnect from the App Store.

    End App Store.

    Restart your Mac.

    Open App Store.

    Log IN to the App Store.

    Check if the download button is available again.

  • I just downloaded El Capitan and I lost my opening. Can't seem to find it in Time Machine. What should I do?

    I just download El Capitan to my IMac mid 2007.  I can't find my application.  Where is he? How can I get?

    Thank you

    By 'lost', do you mean the app disappeared completely? Upgrade to El Cap should not 'remove' the app.

    Newer versions of Aperture are compatible with El Cap.

    Go to Finder - Applications - see if your app opening is there.

    If so, has he the "circle with a line" above?
