For $4.99, I can get the Garageband 10.0.3 with more features and better loops to create music on Yosemite 10.10.1, but I couldn’t finish installing the software, it took forever to download and break in the middle for some reasons even though I have high speed internet. After Googling for a long time, I’d read a post that someone had successfully installed the Garageband with the same problem. I can’t seem to find the post to give credit to the person. Anyhow, here is how he/she did it.
1. Remove all Garageband.plist in ~/Library/Preferences/
2. Remove the ~/Library/Caches/Garageband folder.
3. Remove the ~/Library/Containers/Garageband10 folder.
After doing all these, the Garageband 10.0.3 works right away with all the loops already installed. BTW, the Garageband 6.0.5 is still working in a separate folder.

Thanks! This has been bothering me for months!
Hi, I have the same problem with GarageBand, but by following the instructions do not find in the library com.apple garageband files or file in the cache folder, what can be wrong?
Check User’s Library and system Library
Nothing in any of the libraries mentioned. Download of add-on sounds freezes around 19.2 out of 20.2 gb
Sometimes it hangs due to lost of internet connection. I normally use wired Ethernet when I update the 20GB of loops. I’m running macOS Sierra 10.12.3 and 10.1.5, it did download all 20GB without any problem.
