In this video we have talked about a known issue in mac as per which, we cant download anything in mac os on my macbook pro irrespective of what browser I us. I tried to download pixelmon and it also froze at 42% but eventually got past it, so it's possible that whatever is being loaded up at 42% is too difficult for your computer. So try to download a simple mod so you can figure out if it's a download thing or an issue with big modpacks being hard on your computer. I was able to download.exe files from download.com, etc. But ever since I got McAfee VirusScan v8.7i from my university IT store (FIU), McAfee won't let me do anything. I need this Audio Editor software for school but I keep getting errors when downloading and when I try to use Iwin, it blocks it.
