The message in your photograph is clear: try again later.
For a 5.33 GB download, I guess the same.
Here, the reported download size is 5.16 GB.
If you're not sure, run a one-line command Terminal:
If a matching 'receipt' file is not listed, whilst downloading, then it's probably the wrong app.

Ha. Now its called a brick.At least temporarily...
Haha, I was going to do the long route and erase and replace via USB Boot. Let me know if Internet Recovery works for you! You'll be saving me an hour or so
The look seems to work a little better on osx then it does on ios. Still would be nice for both to get rid of the glow in the dark pastel icons though
Am I the only one who noticed that the video review had a glaring error when talking about Spotlight? It said that the preview is new to Yosemite. But Spotlight has given previews of documents for several versions of OS X, you just had to hover the mouse pointer over the particular search result to get the preview to pop up. Such a big mistake doesn't impress me with the reviewer's knowledge of OS X...
Can you clean install a new OS without doing the USB bootable thing? I've looked online everywhere for that, any link? Thanks.
I didn't even know you can do a clean install via Internet Recovery.. so you're telling me you can skip the USB boot altogether and install clean? (Assuming of course Yosemite is online today)
I feel this is the biggest release since leopard - Great new design, awesome new features - lets hope it has the performance of Snow Leopard
If it goes live, then yes, at least that's my current understanding provided someone else doesn't chime in with more info otherwise.
I can get to this point with no OS installed.

You will be downloading it while in recovery mode, during which time your computer is unusable. Also will have to download again for each computer, or if something goes wrong and you want to do it again. That's why the USB method is recommend, you download 1 time, and your computer is in a usable state till your ready.
Appreciate the info buddy. In no rush for Yosemite. I had the Public Beta through August and my Parallels is smooth with Mavericks.
I wonder how many requests, the servers at Apple are getting from everyone hitting refresh... LOL
