Hi all

I am trying to reinstall OS X Yosemite onto a MacBook Pro Late 2008 version. We are selling the Mac, and have conducted the steps described in 'What to do before selling or giving away your Mac', i.e. deauthorizing from iTunes etc, and erasing all data from the harddrive. I am using an ethernet connection.


When trying to install Yosemite, after entering my Apple ID and password, I keep getting the message 'This item is temporarily unavailable'.
