Autoupdate downloading fails to complete

Recently the download process for autoupdate frequently gets "stuck" -- the down arrow in the shield continues forever and the display window (Show AutoUpdate Window) displays "Downloading".  This has happened both on my iMac and on my wife's Mac Mini. The problem can be solved by re-starting the machine - the next update succeeds. 

iMac OS X 10.7.5

Mac Mini OS X 10.3.3

  • It now happens almost every day on my iMac. I'm less sure about my wife's Mac Mini, but I think it has happened a couple of times. BTW, the Mac Mini is on 10.3.3 - Yosemite.  It's my iMac that I'll need to update soon. I've been putting it off because I don't really like the Yosemite user interface and some other niggling things. But, I'll adapt.

    Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try.
