Unable to download Xcode from both App store and Developer site

The thing is i am trying to install Xcode for last 3 days , first when i tried doing on App store it failed in the middle so i searched on this forum and found i should try downloading it from developer site, i attempted it more than 7 times now each time it stops downloading in middle, like the file size is 8.11 GB and its stops at 6gb or 3.5 gb ,, plus it downloads very slow like at 250Kbps speed though my internet is fast like 100mbps ( i mean i can download everything else in MBPS speed apart from Xcode file ).

  • i have free space of 30GB on my Mac
  • I am using Macbook Air mid 2013
  • Interent speed is good
  • once it stope downloading i cant resume , it starts again


pls give me the solution ,

Thanks in advance

This sounds like a server issue out of your control.


You can check Apple server status—there were issues... and may not be resolved for everyone...

Apple uses a worldwide content-delivery network. If there are server problems or networking problems in your area, you will have problems until they are resolved. I’ve had good luck using a VPN in these cases. Just the other day, my machine would not download an update. I turned in my VPN, selected a US server, and downloaded in seconds.
