Occasionally I see a Download screen showing a download strip/meter of files being downloaded. Other times I'm downloading,for example a yousendit file, but can't recall where to go to see % complete. I'm on Lion OS. I did go to Downloads but not there. I'm downloading to a Folder within a Folder on my desktop.

I purchased Lion at the App Store. I hit Download, it goes grey for about 3 seconds, then "Download" shows again. I get no progress bar. It appears to be locked up for some reason and won't start the download. Lion is listed in my Purchases, so the purchase appears to have gone OK. It just won't start the download. I am running OS 10.6.8, on a 2x2.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon.
I dragged the following to the trash:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
~/Caches/com.apple.appstore
~/Caches/com.apple.storeagent
Maybe it thinks I have already downloaded but I can't find it in my Downloads, and the "Download" button would not be there if it thought this.

I also trashed the Adobe Reader Internet Plug-in in the Library. I still can't open some pdf files (e.g., bank monthly statements). A window opens showing the statement (which should be pdf), but when I try to save: File>Save, I get a window that opens that includes: "Export As: Statement. html" and "Format: Page Source." The Format selection feature opens a pulldown menu that allows "Web Archeive" as the only other choice. Is there anything else here that I need to delete? How is it that I can still download some pdf files, view them, and save them? This problem is happening on the monthly statements for a couple of financial institutions and not others!

I've just purchased a game in the app store, but it's been a bit weird as I had to confirm some details, and now I can't actually work out whether the game is downloading or whatever. Can anyone advise me as to how I can see the progress of the download or whatever?

why wont the mac app store show me the download progress bar anymore? im using Version 1.1.2 (92.8) which seems to be the newest. i today bought a game on the app store which is 15gb. and in the mac app store under "purchased" it wont give me a download progress bar. even in the help file of the app it is said to be there next to the app just bought in the list. however. lauchnpad does give me a progress bar. which is just rather sloppy because it indicates nothing on speed or time remaining.   how come mac app store removed the status bar?Â
View 2 Replies View RelatedSometimes, after downloading an app from the Mac App Store, the progress bar keeps saying it's almost downloaded but not finished. The only workaround I know is restarting the computer.  The icon remains this way:

I have been trying to upgrade to OS X Mavericks. I went to the AppStore searched it, it came up and I clicked download. Then it asked for my apple id which i put in as usual, then it says downloading and the mavericks icon goes down in my dock bar. The problem is I have waited five hours and the progress bar hasn't moved at all. I don't have anything open but the mavericks downloader on my computer and I have tried restarting and pausing the download. A total of 20 hours for waiting for it to download. I have also typed codes into terminal, but this did not work.

Time machine failed in progress as my hard drive failed. I have an "in progress" file on my external harddrive that is about 160 GB. I would like to try and load this back onto a new harddrive. Migration assistant is not responsive nor does Time Machine recognize the external drive when connected.

I can't restart or shut down the mini, due to "operations still in progress." How do I workaround this problem? It seems to occur after I've done a Software Update. The only way I can shut down is with the power switch.

Today when I turned on my MacBook Pro (Mid 2010 model) , the apple logo appeared as normal, but then the spinning gear and a progress bar appeared under it. Now everytime in turn my computer on, this progress bar will appear, get to about the 2/3 mark and then the computer will abruptly turn off. I have read articles about this saying that I have to format my hard drive. I want to know if there is a way to fix this problem with out having to format my hard drive.

Three days ago, I stopped being able to download or view pdfs online. The problem persists whether I use Safari or Firefox and with both Preview & Adobe. I have never had this problem before. Now if I try to view a pdf online, I get a blank screen. If I try to download a pdf, I get an error message stating that the pdf cannot be opened.

My macbook suddenly won't progress past the grey screen and the spinning gear. I have tried the procedures listed in one of the support documents, although I note they don't include OSX10.7 which I am running. I got to the part where it says try your system disk, problem is, I purchased through App store. I'm guessing at this stage I should have created an emergency boot disk.

When I get an attachment like a word doc, some really small file, I have no problem to download/view it. But in the same mail, if there's one bigger file, powerpoint/zip etc, no matter how many times I tried to save it, view it, download it, I just have no way to do it. I am using Mac OS x.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAfter restarting my MacBook pro for updates, I clicked on my user icon which read 'update needed'. After entering my password it began to install the updates, but the progress bar just stopped halfway through, and 2 hours later it hadn't moved. I then switched off my mac and tried again and again but the same thing keeps happening.

IT does this every time, but when I do command and r or other such keyboard commands, it goes I the recovery pahe with no problem. Whenever I tried erasing the iMac to reset it, it said the disk was locked.

I am frustrated to a point of dumping my iMAC. I am running OX S 10.3.9 on my iMAC. Lately I can't find any damn thing that would run on 10.3 all software even plug in want 10.4 or later... I can't view Youtube. I can't download flash (it ask for 10.4 or later) I can't download Safari or Firefix that would work..
So I tried to find 10.4 or 10.5. I can't find it People selling restore CDs but I don't know if these will work I have a 20" iMAC Power PC 1.25 GHZ 1 GB RAM This is more than enough for what I need to do with this MAC I do not use any other stuff I just want to be able to run my program (music software) and use browser. is This too much to ask from Mr.Apple? No mater what you MAC guru says... Windows rocks despite of all problems Microsoft doesn't screw you up like this and force you to buy propreitery every thing. Sorry folks I am frustrated and need help.. before this MAC sees the dumpster.

Says the software may have been tampered with or corrupted during download. I am NOT some computer hack, just a regular guy who bought a simple product to download and it doesn't work. Total BS and waste of my time. I'm not interested in saving my download to an ext HD, or partitioning my HD, or some other funky work-around. I want to know why this software will not load straight away as advertised? I have S/L, v 10.6.8 and the required RAM and disc space.

Earlier tonight I opened iCal, only to find that none of my calendars were there. it was completely empty. However, when I changed the view from "Week" to "Month" all of my events were listed (in the proper color) on the appropriate day, but I still had no list of calendars on the left. Subsequent changes between "Day" "Week" and "Month" view continued to display the events properly, but nothing showed up in the calendar menu on the left.
I repaired permissions same thing happened.I trashed com.apple.ical pref (forgot the exact filename)�same behavior. I use .mac to sync between computers, and I use Missing Sync to sync to a Palm T|X.
