How To Check Download Progress & Speed In Mac App Store?

Ceck download progress download speed mac app store

I’m downloading while i draft this post. It is like never ending download progress. Seem I couldn’t check the download progress or the download speed of the dmg file. Mountain Lion is about 4.4GB in size and i expect to use more than an hour to complete the download with the decent download speed. But still, i wish to see the download progress [how many percent completed] and how fast is the download speed. 

Check Download Progress In Mac App Store

It is simple indeed if you know the trick. Simple click on the Purchases button at the top of the App Store. You will see the download progress bar but yet the download speed is unknown.

Check Download Speed In Mac App Store

Download Network Inspector from YuChen Studios in App Store. It is a very small tool to let you check the existing current network traffic, including the amount and rate of receive and send data.  It is free of charge.

You can now check both of the download progress and speed. So I’m pretty sure you are happy to check both of them with your App Store download.

Err… It is pretty slow for me to download a 4GB OS X Mountain Lion.. Ops..
