Hi all,

I've attempted to download Lion a few times, but the progress keeps stalling and states there is "less than a minute remaining" even though it's only downloaded about half of the app size (about 1.5 GB).

Anyone else experience this?
 
lion doesn't roar

I've spent the whole day trying to download lion and have had several speed and failure problems. my speed is fine (around 8mb down and around 2 up) I'm now on my third attempt which does appear to be getting further this time but at an increadibly slow rate. been downloading for several hours now and has achieved 1.4gb of 3.7gb and telling me it still has approx 8 hours to go.

This can't be right surely?

You shouldn't get charged twice or more.Just go back into Appstore and select my purchases. it should be listed there and either will allow you to continue or download from scratch.
