Unable to Download Live 8.4.2 with OSX Mavericks

Post by Jay_NJ » Sun Feb 23, 2014 5:24 pm

Two strange things seem to happen when I attempt to download Live.

1. The download stops about a quarter of the way through
2. When I check my download folder, the date modified date says 'January 24, 1984'

Since I've upgraded to Mavericks and can't get this upgrade to Live to come down, I'm pretty much screwed. Any ideas or possible solutions?

Thanks!

Ableton's download server has been messed up for a few days, I can't download anything either.

Yeah, seems like you're right. A few other people have said the same thing, even on other OS. Hopefully it's sorted out soon.

Been trying to download Suite 9.1.1 since late Wednesday. :cry:

Maybe the people at BitWig sabotaged their servers? 8O

It's getting rather annoying, especially the lack of response from Ableton. How hard can it be to post a status update somewhere? :evil:

Yeah... They're clearly having server problems. I just tried to download the Retro Synths Pack, a pretty big file, and it wouldn't download all the way either. :|

This has been resolved. Downloading from the Ableton site seems to be fine now. Thanks!
