Slow download of macOS Sierra

Download started MacOS Sierra this morning at 9:00 CDT.  It is now 17:15 and always shows the estimated 9 hours and 30 minutes download time.  Why is it so much to take?

It is possible that the Apple servers are simply overloaded with all the download requests. Just let it continue, or try again at another time.

  • How do I re download beta MacOS Sierra?

    I signed up for the beta and registered program my Mac and installed MacOS Sierra beta but had problems and had to reinstall a backup of my old system of El Capitan. I want to download and re-install MacOS Sierra and I registered on the beta Apple web site, but provided redemption code indicates it is already redeemed. I can't resign upward or opt out of the beta program. I'm stuck. Can someone help me?

    Log in to the Mac App Store with the Apple ID you redeemed the code in and click the purchases tab.

    Any other matter relating to the beta should be discussed on its Web site instead of these tips.

  • Unable to Scan to the computer after downloading macOS Sierra. Is this a software problem?

    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.

    Thanks again and have a great rest of your day.

  • My hp LaserJet 1022nw fails to analyze the download of the printer driver after that macOS Sierra upgraded.

    After switching to macOS Sierra, my printer (hp LaserJet 1022nw) WiFi does not print work orders, even if the printer seems to be to receive the order of work and how to complete it in the work queue.  Connect the printer to my MacBook Pro via USB, I am able to print without problem.  Other computers on the network continue to be able to print wireless.  When I connect via USB and try to scan a updated driver, download cause analysis a software fault message.  Any ideas on how I could proceed to continue to connect and use my printer wireless with the new OS?  The 1022nw is detectable as a printer available (wi - fi) and can normally be added to the list of printers, but doesn't have the print queue even thought that they seem to have been dealt with, and then disappear from the queue.

    Open System Preferences > Printers and Scanners and select the print tab.

    I tried more than a dozen times, download the installation program from the App Store for macOS Sierra.  It fails every time with a message that "sierra macos download failed.

  • Downloaded the new MacOS Sierra, but cannot install it

    Hello!

    The morning I downloaded the new OS Sierra from AppStore. The download is complete, I started to install. Amidst this, a message appeared and he said I don't have enough hard disk space. Well, fortunately I managed to start the previous operating system and everything works normally.

    The problem is the following- I always update the operating system more recent. I open AppStore, OS Sierra search and it says downloaded. But I can not start the installation process in any case .

    In the finder, I noticed that there are new 'macOS Install Data' folder under Macintosh HD. Should I delete this, so I can re-download from AppStore new OS and then install? Or how can I start the installation again process?

    Thank you!

    Look in your Applications folder for "Install macOS Sierra." This is where the installer is placed when it is downloaded. It is normally deleted once the update is complete, but may still be there.

    I would also say that you look through the problems on this forum other users have experienced so you can decide if you want to join them.

    In fact, I'm under the latest version of El Captain (10.11.6) on my MacBook Pro 13 "retina, I bought in late 2014. I've heard talk too upgraded to a Mac operating system slow down the device and the decrease of the performance... In your opinion, should I upgrade the MacOS Sierra system, get the new features, but with the risk of slowing down my Mac?

    These are my characteristics of Mac

    It depends on when Sierra is officially out and we can discuss it here. So far, use the forum of developers by following the instructions in the EULA.
