Hi all
I'm trying to download Mavericks from the App store on my 2013 MacBook Air 11'.
If I try to download Mavericks whilst on battery, it will get stuck from anywhere in between 25% to 90% done. It says 'calculating' instead of like '5 minutes remaining' or something, and then will eventually say 'Mavericks failed to download, please try again from the Purchases tab'. This is also the case with downloading Yosemite via the Mac App store. Weirdly though, when this happens, I won't be able to access the Internet after that. Everything fails to connect online, including things like Dropbox, Skype etc. However the MacBook remains connected to wifi at all times, and doesn't drop the wifi signal at all.
Now the weird thing is, if I connect the macbook to a power source, it downloads any large fine such as Mavericks or Yosemite fine!
Any ideas what this could be? I'm on 10.9.5 and have all SMC and security updates that the App store allows.
Thanks
