Can’t download the additional components Was trying to sell old MacBook Pro 2011, followed a video to reset using command r upon restart all worked fine till got this message after trying to re install Mac OS X Lion, “ can’t download the additional components needed to install max OS X”. Ask a friend/acquaintance at work/school who owns a mac to download the Mountain Lion installer from the app store and use it to create a bootable USB installer drive. You'll need to supply them with a USB drive (8Gb or larger), and possibly buy them a beverage of their choice to say thanks afterwards. Link 1: Link 2: support.apple.com/downloads Hey guys! This is Charlie from Charlie's. Just download the Install Mac OS X Lion app from the Mac App Store and let it walk you through the remaining steps. Still, things can—and occasionally do—go astray. After formatting the drive and starting the install i get a timer stating its going to take -2,393,938,938 and 8 minutes. After about 2mins it pops up saying Can’t download the additional components needed to install Mac OS-X. I have tried it with a standard mechanical HDD as well as the SSD.
Hello Apple community, I am in need of some desperate advice for my situation, I am trying to install Mountain Lion fresh, so I wiped my HDD since I didnt have anything important on it anyways, so I make a bootable USB flash drive containing Mountain Lion and went through the install process until this error hit me: Can't download additonal components to install Mac OS X, so I think, this is bad, I check my HDD and verify it and everything is OK with it, so I use the disc that came with my Macbook Pro (Early 2011, 13' model), I insert the disc to reinstall Snow Leopard, and also get hit with an error alongs the lines of the disc not being able to transfer some files to install Snow Leopard, so right now I'm stuck with a Macbook Pro with no OS and cannot install any OS either so any help would be great. Shockwave flash player free download for mac. Thank You.
