    I think I found a work around

     

    click the # of files left hyper link

    cancel the download of the current interupted file. 

    The next file in line should begin downloading at that point.

    Make a note of the missed file to upload at a later time

    and change your settings so the cpu doest go to sleep.

    Apple logo>System preferences>energy saver>sleep time never
