Download stopped in middle

I purchased the os x lion and it started to download. Now it says it is installing, but no progress has been made in 2 hours.
Any suggestions?

I started downloading Lion last night and let it run for about 20 hours (the gear at the top of the Lion page in Apps Store was still spinning with no progress bar). I went to another page to seek help. When I came back to the Lion page, no activity was showing. I hit the Buy button again, and nothing happens. Can anyone sort this out for me?

HT202159 Mountain lion download stopped at middle.

Hi Everyone,

thanks

I'm another who's had the 53.25MB failure issue, and it's 99.9% certain to be a router issue. If you're in the UK then the chances are you're with BT for your broadband. As mentioned above, there is a known issue with the 2Wire BT Business Hub, see link below, and probably other routers too.

"If you want Mountain Lion, or any other large download, then you'll need to get another router, or firmware upgrade if available." That however can be a pain, and if BT don't play ball then an expensive one. There is another solution however, and one that means no contact with BT, call centres or your local PC World ...
What I did was put in an old BTHomeHub that I had lying around to get it passed the 53.25MB point, and then paused the download while I reinstalled the 2Wire BT Business Hub. I then resumed the download and the whole 4+GB was on my iMac in a few minutes (well just over the hour). If you don't have a spare router, borrow one, you'll only need it to get the download passed the 53.25MB stage. For completeness, I waited until it was at about 150MB before pausing.
Hope that helps some.

I-photo 11 worked last month and not anymore.Download stops in the middle.I have to shut MAc down and restart to debug.
What's wrong ?

Here's a fix that worked for some users:
Make sure this checkbox is checked in the System/Sharing preference pane:
If it is, uncheck it and then recheck and try ordering again.

Itunes download stops in the middle on my mac mini

I have a older mac Mini that I'm using as a storage for all my movies and everytime I try to download a movie using Itunes the download stop in the middle and never finishes. I've already set my sleep to never, however if I stay on the computer during the download it will sometimes complete.

Are you using WiFi or wired Ethernet? If WiFi, try it with wired Ethernet instead, it's often more stable, not to mention that some routers have not-so-optimal WiFi settings.

HT5731 I forgot about slow download speed's negative effects... hence (I think) the videos I downloaded stop in the middle. I have a better download speed if I connect directly to LAN. Is there anyway for me to fix the videos previously purchased?

I forgot about slow download speed's negative effects... hence (I think) the videos I downloaded stop in the middle. I can get a better download speed if I connect directly to LAN. Is there anyway for me to fix the videos previously purchased or re download them without having to re purchase them? I'm attempting to play the video's directly from iTune "purchased" folder on my Win7 Home Premium PC.

Never mind.. I found instructions on how to re download purchased items. I only need help downloading 2 more items. I love the attention I've recieeved (I guess silly questions go unoticed... sigh)

I'm trying to update to firefox 6.0, but the download stops at 79%. How can I fix this? It occurs even after restarting my Mac.

I've been using firefox with my Mac book. Yedsterday, I got a message to update from version 3.6 to 6.0 in 3 steps. Step 1 was to download version 6.0. It appeared on the list of downloads as Firefox 6.0 dmg. However Step 1 , which was to open the download, stopped at 79% of the download version. So I have not been able to update to version 6.0.

I want to make sure you're using the auto-update system, because that's the safest most reliable way to go, and it shouldn't appear in the download manager, so I lets make sure you're doing it right. <br/>
This is a screencast I made a couple of years ago. It refers to 3.5 and 3.6, but the steps are still the same: http://ilias.ca/screencasts/ISUHD45.mov
If that doesn't work, then maybe your Snow Leopard account doesn't have permission to update applications?

Upgraded to FF4 sites were slow loading or not loading at all - then I discovered it downloads if I keep moving the cursor. If I stop moving the cursor the downloading stops or slows to a crawl again.

Mavericks download stops at 1.03GB

iMac 9.1
2.66GHz
8GB RAM
Running Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Trying to download Mavericks, the download stops every time at 1.03GB, and clicking retry doesn't start it.
I get the message "The application you tried to download could not be downloaded. Check your internet connection and try again."
But if I click Cancel, and then restart the download, it works perfectly again up until 1.03GB.
So I'm a little unconvinced that it's a problem with my internet connection, considering I have full access to the web and clicking retry shows it working and connecting.
What could be wrong?

Just noting, I connected the computer to a different network and it worked perfectly. It seems it's a problem with the network I was on.
If your computer is also having this problem, I suggest taking it to a friend's and doing the update there, or checking your router settings. I'm not sure why 1.03GB, but I can confirm that it did work on a different network.

Error 110 encountered and download stopped

My system is windows 7 X64 ultimate, 8G ram and 230G HDD
When I tried to download creative suite 6 master collection (Traditional Chinese) trial version via adobe download asistance, everytime when the progress is about 2/3 complete, the statement "error 110....." appear and the download stopped.
I tried to restart the download, but the download didn't restart again. Even I tried another new download, but the same thing happened again.
I tried another machine that run windows xp, but same thing happened again. I have search the adobe web, there is direct download link, but the Traditional Chinese version is not available there.
What happened to the CS6 download manager or server whenever the download is reached certain place, it stopped ?
Is there any alternative way other than adobe download assistance to download trial version of CS 6 master collection (Traditional Chinese) version since I need to elvauate the product before my purchase?

I think, I've found the answer. The problem is at adobe's side.
Not only the traditional Chinese version of CS6 master collection, but also the Korean version are not available for download although they were appearred in ADA. Because I've tried to download these two versions, same problem happened, instead very smooth download for English or Japanese versions.
Any Adobe's official can answer my question?

Rentals are a one-time only download from the store. If you can't free up enough space on your phone for it then you can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they grant you a redownload for your Mac : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

HT1725 my movie download stops abruptly 20min before the end

my movie download stops abruptly 20min before the end although the internet connection hasnt been interrupted.
I get the error message: there was a problem downloading "le gamin au velo". An unknown error occurred (-50). Please check network connection." Have you seen this error before? Thanks

Perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

HT1846 I tried to download latest windows support using the boot camp , but the download stopped beacause of a network proplem , can you help?!

I tried to download latest windows support using the boot camp , but the download stopped beacause of a network proplem , can you help?!

I have the same issues. I keep getting a "network error" even though my connections are fine. I have installed Bootcamp fine on another Macbook, but am having major issues with my brand new one. I have read the support forums where they say to keep trying because the servers are notoriously slow, but this seems a little ridiculous. Hope I can get some help as well.
Thanks!

10.5.3.dmg download stops at 275 MB

I have made several attempts (4) to download the 10.5.3 update. In all cases the download stops at 275 MB. This happens using both Software Update and the 10.5.3 standalone download. I also tried emptying Library / Updates folder of all except the index.plist. There is no size or bandwidth cap on my ISP. Any ideas?

It sure sounds like an ISP cap. Try downloading something completely different that's over 300MB and see what happens. Try another computer on the same line.

Downloads stops

when i try to download anything from the web with safari or chrome
1mb or 5gb randomly my download stops it can be at 10% or 80% doesn't matter it stops and i can't get my files downloaded right
i have a MacBook Pro 13" mid 2010 core 2 duo OS 10.9.4

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
One thing to check. Open Disk Utility (in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder). Click on your hard drive by brand name and then on the First Aid tab. Verify and repair if necessary both permissions and the disk. Repair until there is nothing left to repair. If the startup disk needs repair, you will need to do this using the Disk Utility on your Leopard install disc.
Any time you install software, always repair permissions both before and after the installation.
If this does not fix the problem, please post back.
Good luck!
