Internet is Spotty where I am and the Auto update of Mac OS Catalina gets interrupted at some point in the 12hrs it says it will take and then starts over. I’ve been trying to download it for 3 days now with this constant problem. I don’t have access to better internet and I usually have better luck with Manual Downloads of applications as they keep trying if there is a hiccup rather than kicking me off completely.


Is there a manual download option for this OS? I’ve tried searching Apple site and I can’t seem to find one. As for a 3rd party I am always very skeptical of such as they are either compromised or they try to bundle them with things you don’t want. If there is a clean copy somewhere anyone knows of or a way to Download from the Apple site I just couldn’t find please let me know. If not then I suppose I’ll just have to stay with the OS I have. (wishing to upgrade because some apps have stopped working and or don’t support the Older OS now that I use regularly.)
