Was given a 2009 Macbook Pro after original owner attempted to hard reset. Reinstall of OS X unsuccessful from OS X Utilities. I get as far as agreeing to terms, and signing in to App Store with my Apple ID, and then get this message: "This item is temporarily unavailable. Try again later." I start school tomorrow and I am royally screwed if I can't figure this out. All data is clearly erased, as well as all Apps. Any info pointing me in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
