Downloads Folder: Progress Stuck

[luisito]

Has anyone experienced this bug? The progress bar gets stuck once it reaches 100%. I've had this bar for 2 days already.

See attachments please.

Try rebooting

Did you try entering killall Dock in the terminal,
It tells the dock to restart. It normally gets rid of those glitches.

I had that problem using the Developer Preview, now on 10.9 Release it's working fine, but other report that too, I guess a fix will come out before long.

I experienced the same bug too but that bar would go away after I reboot.

Same here, only reboot fixes it.

No thanks, there are applications that I don't wish to close.

Hopefully, the amount of bugs from Mavericks on the forums is quite insane, but expected. Good thing is that Apple is known from fixing stuff fast.

The killall Dock command restarts the dock but doesn't close any applications.

I see. Thanks!

Having this issue with my MacBook Air and the full release version of Mavericks. Any resolution short of restarting?

Any resolution short of restarting?

See post #2.

I have the same problem but it happens to me when the downloaded file is too small that it downloads instantaneously. Otherwise I don't have any problems. I have killed dock tens of times already.

The easiest way to fix it is to drag off downloads from the dock. Then from Finder, put it right back. Problem solved.

It's really a small thing, but quite annoying. This solution ... well ... duh. Why didn't I think of that. Thank you.

I simply relaunch finder and it fixes it for me.

Thanks, djtech42

Removing aborted downloads and restarting did NOT do it, but djtech42's "killall Dock" suggestion did. Thanks!

A bit late, but the problem still appears to be not fixed by Apple.
I made a tiny little "app" that looks nice and you can put in your Dock. It does the Terminal thing of solution 2 with the addition of killall Finder in a more beautiful way, like Mac users like it: simple, sleek and stylish.
