iMac 21.5 Late 09 problem - software update

[johnchart]

When I try to update my 10.7.3 OS X software I get the following message:

The update "Mac OS X combined" can't be saved because you are not connected to the internet". Well, the problem is I am connected to the internet. While the software is being downloaded (they show it will take 3 hours) I am surfing around the net. It quits on the download time after about 30 minutes or less & then the error message appears.

I need need help!

How are you connected to the internet? Not all internet connections are equal. If nothing else, do the update overnight.

Are you trying to use the App Store to apply the update?

Try the direct download.

I have CenturyLink DSL. Very reliable but not the fastest. Don't know why this software update won't D/L.
