Logic Pro X was not able to complete the download

I bought Logic Pro X yesterday. When I try to download the additional content it keeps giving the error "Logic Pro X was not able to complete the download" at random positions. Then I click OK, start the download again, it downloads for a while then gives the error again and so on. How can I resolve this issue?

The annoying thing is why do I have to click OK anyway, why can't the application resume the downloads automatically? This is an absurd programming mistake in my opinion whatever the reason of the problem is.

Logic Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

I am in october of 2016. My message:

After reading a lot of reports on the problem of Logic not being able to download additional content (I have this problem right now after reinstalling macOS and Logic Pro from app store), I decided to download, at least, manually the core content and install pkg by pkg. And I think I just found out what this problem is about.

When I tried to install the package MAContent10_AssetPack_0599_GBLogicAlchemyEssentials, It says "The Installation failed". So, this is the problem. As a lot of contents has this same pkg, they will fail to install. And, other contents may have pkgs that are broken and they will fail to install as well. Contents that don't have broken pkg can be installed with no problems! I have some of them installed already, but I just can't install the contents that have this pkg that I mentioned.

So, the problem is not about bad internet, poor wifi signal, ethernet cable, forget all about it. If Apple don't replace the broken pkg, it doesn't matter how good your internet signal is, you wont be able to install all the additional content.

My question is: How or Who I can talk to in order to report this problem? I sent Apple suport some e-mails and I had no response from them.

Hi!, I found a solution to this download/installation problem of MAContent10_AssetPack_0599_GBLogicAlchemyEssentials.pkg.

You must to extract the contents of the .pkg with Pacifist, and when the app gives you the “inflate:data error” message, you just hit the “continue” button every time until the extract is finished.

Next step, you must to copy the extracted folder to the location where Logic stores samples and stuff: Library/Application Support/Logic/Alchemy Sample
