Mac won’t install apps or gets stuck updating By Dan Helyer 3 comments Last updated August 13, 2019 One of the best things about a Mac is the range of free apps that come pre-installed. This verification ensures that the application is not tampered with, so I would consider re-downloading and re-installing any app that fails to verify. If you have an installer package and you're sure it validates by checking the checksum or you have a backup and no data that would be sensitive if it's compromised - you can force the installer.
For users who need to move from an old Mac to a new Mac, the best choice is to migrate over a wifi connection or wired connection using Migration Assistant. Unfortunately, not all users can complete the transfer job successfully.
