Apple Software Update Download Issue Mac



Issue

@baltwo That is not an answer to the question, that's a workaround. I agree with @hauskurz and a number of others I have found on the internet: There should be a way to pause updates. There is no reason that if I download 800+ mb of updates for 4 different applications, and I have to disconnect from the internet for any reason before the download is complete, that what has been downloaded should be lost. They have to be stored somewhere in temporary files or something that can and should be recovered.
There really needs to be a pause function or at least an automatic recovery of those incomplete downloaded updates. Come on, Apple, get on this.
And please, no more 'answers' like @baltwo - Don't tell me when to do my updates - thats not the problem, the problem is loss of downloaded data for no reason.
