I just signed up on the forum to let all of you that can't download, that I am over halfway through, and only have been downloading a little less than 10 minutes.
HAHAHAHAHA.

Noob question alert: i wont be charged for mountain lion if i keep pressing the purchase button and the error comes up?

Probably not, but what's the rush?

I'm sitting back and waiting a few days to see what (if any) problems others have with it before I do an upgrade.

 

[macjolt]

My guess is those of us that are waiting for our free Up to Date copy will probably get it towards the end of the day, when the demand and server issues die down.

 

[cwwilson]

done and done.

Stayed up all night for ML, now I have to rush to work and still no ML Server, WTF.

Try clicking the link to the app store in the first post in this thread, that's what I did.

It's weird not having the Mac in front of OS X

 

[RMarch]

It's here!!!

Signing off far a few minutes while it installs! Downloaded in 13 minutes from Australia via the US store. Says install will be complete in 6 minutes.

 

[vabello]

Done!

Done downloading... installing now! Here goes nothing.

 

[moxxey]

Still coming up with this in the UK store -_-

Nope, it's still not working in the UK. Hilarious. Anyone tried giving them a call?

Downloading ML now. Our U-verse is usually 2-2.4 mps down. Seems to be downloading in the 2 mps range. Gonna install it on the MBA & maybe wait a couple of days to put it on the iMac.

Where's XCode 4.4? That's my question.

 

[pineapple216]

I've got the 'this item is temporarily unavailable' error too.

Guess Apple has underestimated the number of users that would upgrade on launch day, but I'll think that we'll can download it in a few hours.

Since these first hours are going to be the peak hours in which everyone wants to upgrade I guess

Please post the build number. This can be done by clicking on the "10.8" subtitle.

 

[bushido]

same built number as the GM?

 

[andrewh93]

done and done.

If you downloaded that from the App Store, that means that the GM seed is the same build number as the official retail release.

 

[hyndman]

Stuck on 53.25MB and calculates out that I will take 192 days to install... that's past Christmas!.. wahhhhhhh

 

[wilsonlaidlaw]

Wot no bandwidth?

Trying to get through to the Mountain Lion server is more difficult than trying to phone our local health centre on a wet Monday morning with everyone looking for sickies.

 

[zer0cool2011]

Installing now

Download took about 15 minutes.

 

[oacory]

Downloading fine in NJ. I started download at 9:02 Eastern and it has already downloaded 600MB with 30 minutes left three minutes into it. Lets hope now crash of the server

 

[Wokis]

Couldn't upload receipt using google chrome. Had to launch safari. Time lost! Last in line now =o)

 

[strausd]

It is still saying my redeem code is not valid

 

[neroroxxx]

anybody having issues with bootcamp?

 

[rovex]

Apparently i don't have a valid landline.... and now the dreaded error code.

Honestly, this is beyond a hassle.

 

[AnonMac50]

hmm its not up on the Aussie App store yet.

edit: nevermind, it's there. 20.99 is pretty good for Australians.

I wouldn't call it a good price, since the A$ is stronger than the US$, but the OS is more expensive.
