What is "MZFinance.DownloadProductRequestParseError_message"

Yes, I did some digging and MZFinance is part of the legacy Apple WebObjects work that built the first iTunes and Apple e-commerce Store. If anyone is getting these errors, its from an incomplete download from the App Store. Check LaunchPad and see if anything is paused.

Yes, since the App Store receipt isn’t downloaded, you’ll need to redo the download for the apps you suspect are not finished. App Store does not mark them as pending or owned. Just re-get and it will complete the purchase. Trick is to remember the apps that are pending.

Try this: go back to the App Store and attempt to re-download the 4 apps. Once the download receipt is complete, you’ll stop getting the error. Don’t resume from LaunchPad, it won’t complete.

Thanks! I did it and didn´ hate to delete the App, system asked if I wanted to delete it, I choose yes but it only deleted the uncompleted download and the progress bar on the launch icon desapegares.

This is the solution, at least for this problem.

I got the same problem after updating to MacOS Mojave 10.14.1. got the error:

MZFinance.DownloadProductRequestParseError_message

When I went to the Launchpad, I observed that apple products “Pages“, “Numbers“ and “Keynote“ are shown as if in a state of pause for a download.

I accessed the “Store“ menu, and “Reload the Page“ and the paused items appeared (I never paused them).

I then clicked on Update (for each APP (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote) ). The apps started downloading.

Problem Solved.

I found that MZFinance is the name of the server Apple uses App Store downloads and subscriptions. When you get this error message, you'll probably see a paused download in your Launchpad. To remedy this, you need to complete the failed download. Only if you remember what you were trying to download 🙂

Have you tried to see if there’s a pending download from the App Store? Check you LaunchPad and see if something is trying to download and stalled.

Of course there are. That's the problem. In launchpad there are 4 apps that say paused and when I click on them to unpause the updates I get the error message described in this thread. If I go to the App Store and check for updates there aren’t any. I’m not the only user having this problem.

Hello,

I've just solved the same issue :

1/ Click on launchpad icon AND press alt or option

2/ The apps icons start to jiggle

3/ Click in the corner to delete

4/ I also deleted the freezed downloaded app in Finder

5/ Restart the Mac

I opened in safe mode and tried the updates. I still get this error message.

I have this same problem and haven't been able to resolve this issue. Have you had any success??

The App Store doesn’t show any apps needing update so I can’t start the update from there.
