How to resume uncomplete download on Mac

they are files.zip, all stopped in the middle except for one. Trying new download didn't help, they stop before end again.

Hi fredouille,
Do you have an antivirus installed on your mac?
If downloads hang at the last minute (just before reaching 100%), the cause might be antivirus software which tries to scan the file and during that process hangs the Firefox instance.
In order to fix the problem, try disabling the scanning as follows:
# In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
# Click I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue to the about:config page. A list of settings should appear
# Filter the list by typing in the search bar at the top. Type in scanWhenDone. You should now find the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone preference.
# Double-click on that preference to set the value to false.
# Next, try to download something and see if it still hangs.
Please reply and tell us whether this helped you!

Try these steps:

# Start a new download and pause it, don't close Firefox.
# Copy the two files (.part and 0 byte final) that you moved above back to the download location to replace the new files that were created.

If that doesn't work then the server may not support resuming.

The problem of tracks becoming de-linked between iTunes and the music files in your iTunes music folder happens for different reasons - this seems to come up fairly commonly in this forum.
The solution can be to locate each song in the iTunes library, as you mentioned - or, but wait, before I get to that...
trouble finding the original track in your iTunes music folder? maybe look for it under compilations, or if not using the 'group compilations preference' then look in the folder under the songs artist name, but what song artist name iTunes uses depends on what you have in the metedata tag spot for album artist or song artist. Any varyation in artist name spelling, in the menu item 'get info' metadata for any selected individual track will cause iTunes to create that as a separate artist folder in the library, even names like 'various' or any difference at all (even the word 'the' can change where in your iTunes music folder a track gets placed by iTunes). You can try to use the finder function of find file (finder munu item outside of iTunes) to locate hard to find items.
Back to how to re-link any de-linked tracks .
There may be scripts that can help re-link de-linked music files - or, at least provide you a list of such files, Scripts are easy to install and use...
at Dougs Scripts, there is one called iTunes Track CPR that might work
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=itunestrackcpr
or, if you just want a list of de-linked tracks, go to
http://dougscripts.com/itunes/
and find the script called List MIA's, this will create a text file listing all de-linked tracks

you may find more insight into dealing with this kind of issue there, although some of that thread may not apply to your case, aspects of it might help.

HT202159 How to resume interrupted downloads when it stops and starts during the download process?

I have a 2011 25inch iMac desktop and it when I download a game app from the App store, it keeps on stoping and starting at certian points (these are random and do not stop in the same spot if I restart the download) Ive only gotten as far as 6.22GB out of 8:55GB before the download progress stops and goes back to the begining all by itself. I have plenty of space on my hard drive to install it so why is it constently doing this. Its taken me a week and a half to get to about 6.22GB and its still not letting me finished the instalation. Also why is the Calulating times keeps going up and down some times it says like 1 hour and 55 minutes when its progressing but then when it stops it goes all the way up to like 15 days, 14 hours and 60 minutes until it starts up again and then it goes back down to 1 hour and 54 minutes when it starts up the instalation progress again. The Game app is Trainz Railroad Simulator 2.

*** How to resume movie rental download?

I started to download a movie and then had to quit iTunes and restart my Mac. When I opened iTunes it wasn't there so I searched for it and the message said "you've already rented this, do you want to rent it again?". I was only about 75mb into a 1.06-ish gb download so that's not possible.
How do I resume this download without paying to rent the movie again?
Thanks in advance!

Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
Try trashing them in Safe Mode, reply if that doesn't help.

Well, you can cancel your Snow Leopard order if it hasn't already shipped. You need not wait on it as you can download Mountain Lion now that you have a redemption coupon (I assume that's what you meant by the email.)
After Mountain Lion is installed you can download a free copy of Mavericks. This all assumes that your computer meets the requirements for Mountain Lion.
Before you do any upgrade I strongly urge you to do this:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Personally, I would erase the hard drive then install the new OS X version. First, make a backup of your files from which you can later restore.
