It takes you to MacKeeper, even though the name itself isn't there. The way the page is laid out it could make you think you have to use it before running the test. Dec 1, PM.

I do understand the dif between bits and bytes, but aren't both my speedtest and the download both listed in kiloBYTES? Was one of them in bits, or did I just use the wrong abbreviation? As far as the downloads themselves, when I started the xcode download, the expected download time was hours. I didn't stay up with it all night, so I have no idea how long it took.
I waited for it for several minutes, maybe 15, maybe closer to an hour. I was soo exhausted I really don't remember. When I went to bed, pretty sure it said it had at least 3 hours left. As far as my understanding of bits, bytes, and other stuff, I am aware of the difference, and I am fairly proficient with a computer, but I am very much a beginning programmer and a noob on mac. Also, if it makes any difference to the discussion, I have not yet updated to Lion.
I just updated to Apr 9, AM. Divide those by eight to get bytes. Apr 9, PM. Nov 11, PM in response to narya In response to narya.

Remember to restart your app download after signing back into App Store. Maybe your app is taking long to download because you have slow internet.
You can check if your internet speed is fast on speedtest. Though very rare, firewalls, security software, and VPN can hinder internet performance and usage. Incoming and outgoing connections to the App Store might be cited as possible threats, thus resulting in blocked or restricted connections to associated servers. When this happens, it causes connectivity issues.
Try disabling and enabling each software package to see if it affects incoming and outgoing connection to the App Store. Consider using your cellular network and see if you can download your apps. If successful, then it means there is something wrong with the Wi-Fi network you are connected to.
Try troubleshooting the Wi-Fi if you can. Alternatively, consult a network pro. If you manage to download, then that is an indicator your Wi-Fi has an issue. If in a position to fix without calling for support, go ahead and fix.
Otherwise, call your ISP or a network expert. In case the Wi-Fi network you are connected to is configured to use a poor DNS server, then all your internet requests will go through that server, and its poor performance will be passed on to you. This, of course, will affect App Store downloads. Luckily, you can reconfigure the DNS setting through your Apple device.
Do the following to change the DNS settings. While configuring DNS settings on your device is recommended, sometimes this is not the best approach, especially if the problem is affecting more than one device on the network. In this case, it is better to reconfigure the DNS settings from the wireless router itself. We often hear of iOS glitches when a new major update rolls out.
The same goes for new iPhone releases. Apple will quickly release patches via a version update. Download any updates and install them, then restart your device. Now try downloading the app again. If after trying the above solutions none seems to work, it makes sense to contact Apple. A support representative will guide you in solving the issue. As you can see, there are many reasons why your apps could be downloading too slowly. Luckily, you can solve most of these snags without contacting Apple.
