You obviously have a problem with your Macbook because the Caps Lock key is also stuck down.
Take it to an Apple mender.
 
thanks macmancuk

thanks for reply sorry caps isnt stuck it was just me as i was doing another thing on here :eek:
any ideas with the downloads or just take to genius
 
If you haven't emptied the trash, perhaps you can bring the files back and see if the downloads resume. You mention Finder but downloads are something associated with software update or Safari or another browser. How did you start the downloads in the first place (before your battery died)? That could help us tell you how to get them back again.
