Set Star Downloader as default download manager

I would like to use Star Download as my default download manager.
I have it installed and I have checked that FF is integrated, but when I download a file/program, it is not activated.
Do I need to deactivate some other DL manager?

To set it as the default, please disable the others that are not in use.

  • How do you set the default file manager in kde?

    I'd like to set dolphin as the default file manager in KDE, how would I go about doing that?  I have an installed working copy of dolphin on my comp right now.

    pressh wrote:
    associate dolphin as default for directories in control center.
    kde components -> file associations -> inode -> directory
    Thanks, but for some reason when I go in there and change it as a user, it doesn't save the setting, and it doesn't work.  However, when I do the same thing as root it works, but of course, it only works for root then.

    and dolphin is nice
    actually i think konqueror is more powerfull in kde3. However, the dolphin version in kde4 trunk is shaping up nice and looks promising.
    Dolphin is a little bit less cluttered, and seems to be faster too.  Most of the features in konquerer I never use.

  • Set nautilus as default file manager in kde?

    I would give kde a good chance, but I have several issues with konqueror. Is it possible to set nautilus as the default file manager in kde? I have started nautilus from kde before.
    Is this possible?

    OK then. Install nautilus.
    control center > file associations > inode > directory [ then add: "nautilus --no-desktop" ] (make sure it's primary in the list)
    You'll not be able to open KIO slaves such as media:// with nautilus though. Maybe you should create launchers on the desktop running "nautilus --no-desktop computer://" etc?
    There are some other cosmetic changes you can do as well, such as installing gnome-volume-manager, gnome-settings-dameon, gnome-control-center etc.
    Another way is just to add "nautilus --no-desktop" as default application for inode > directory, but don't add it as *primary*, but secondary application, so you can right click and choose "open with nautilus" on the desktop/konqueror.
    I've successfully run a complete nautilus desktop replacing konqueror as root window and file manager, and it works really good actually.
    I did uncheck "icons on desktop" and disabled wallpaper in kcontrol.
    Had to disable "hal backend" in kde to let gnome-volume-manager take care of hal mounts; "HalBackendEnabled=false" in .kde/share/config/mediamanagerrc
    Then i had to run "gnome-settings-daemon &" in .kde/Autostart/startup (this file should be executable, as usual) (nautilus itself is a GUI application and will survive  the next session on it's own, because of KDE session managment)
    I took the easy route and installed the whole "gnome" metapackage instead of selective packages though.
    The only problem was that kedit.desktop didn't want to start as default application for say, text files, but i had to enter kedit manually in that box you get during "open with dialog".
    I bastardized KDE, i know
    It was worth it! hehe
    BTW dolphin/d3lphin is really good too, as lucke pointed out.

    I downloaded a Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone.Worked well until I had to recharge my phone.The Ringtone has now disappeared from my iPhone and I'm left with just the Ringtones that come standard with iPhone 6. I sync'd my phone and it shows in the Tones folder. How do I get the Ringtone back as a default Ringtone in my iPhone 6. Quite frustrating!!

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from email?

    How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from emails I receive?  It shows the default as Photoshop Elements 4.0 and is not supported by this system.  That was my last computer!!
    Thanks,

    That has nothing to do with styles nor Pages, it is a System/Printer Driver setting.
    You can experiment to see if the Printer Settings stick with your document, but in the past this has not worked.

  • How do I re-enable showing the download files history in the download manager window?

    System: Windows XP
    I am trying to re-enable showing/retaining the list of downloaded files in the download manager window. I want to be able to drag and drop directly from that window into a folder of my choosing. (I used to be able to do this, but apparently I messed that up...)
    I have tried the suggestions that could easily be found, including setting Firefox to remember all history in the Privacy tab of Options.
    I also deleted the mimeTypes.rdf file to "reset" the browser defaults, but to no avail.
    Any ideas/help?
    Thanks.

    By the way, a few other things you probably know:
    (1) The setting to keep the downloads list displayed after a download is here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > General
    Check "Show the Downloads window..." and ''uncheck'' "Close it..."
    (2) You can always show the list by pressing Ctrl+j
    The mimeTypes.rdf file isn't particularly relevant to this problem; it affects what application Firefox uses to open a particular type of file.
    However, there is a database file which stores your download history which might be corrupted. You could rename that file and have Firefox start building a new one.
    (1) Open your personal settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder
    Help (or Alt+h) > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    (2) Switch back to Firefox and exit the program (e.g., File > Exit)
    (3) Wait a few moments for Firefox to finish updating files in your settings folder, then rename '''downloads.sqlite''' to something else, like downloads.old. Alternately, you can delete the file.
    (4) You're done with your profile folder and you can restart Firefox now.
    Any improvement?

  • How do I make download manager behave the way it should?

    == Issue
    ==
    I have another kind of problem with Firefox
    == Description
    ==
    When downloading a filetype that is set to "Always ask", Download Manager (DM) offers two radio-buttons and a checkbox, for "open with", "save to disk" and "always do thls", respectively.
    My question regards the first. The option now reads "Open with ....[[browse]".
    It used to read, and should still read, "Open with ,,, [[TheRightApplicationForThisFiletype]"
    If I do click [[Browse], FF offers a list of helper applications, most of which are wildly wrong and could not handle the filetype -- such as Acrobat, or FF itself. But when I do pick the correct application from this list, now DM momentarily and finally looks like it should have looked in the first place:
    "Open with ... [[MSWordWhacker]"
    and upon clicking "OK", opens the file with WordWhacker.
    The next time, though, we're back to [[Browse]. I've browsed enough! I feel like a sheep!
    Everybody starts telling me about the Applications menu and setting it to "Always open with WordWhacker", and that's not the right answer. THAT just automatically opens the file with WordWhacker instead of offering me the options to either open or save the file. I need the "Save to disk" option every time.
    In the [[browse] list of helper applications WordWhacker isn't even the first option. The first option is FireFox, and FF can't handle WordWhacker files. Neither can any of the other choices except MS WordWhacker.
    My windows file associations are correct, MSWW is the only application associated with the filetype. I've tried uninstallling and reinstalling the app, no change.
    One suggestion from IRC was that my profile was corrupt, so I deleted the whole folder and had FF recreate me. No difference. Downgraded to 3.5 and back to 3.6, also no difference.
    The IRC guys are out of ideas. (Thanks for trying, though!)
    How do I get DM to stop offering me
    "Open with ...[[Browse]"
    and start offering me
    "Open with ... [[WordWhacker]
    instead, when I click on urls for wordwhacker files?

    Well, there's no help here, it seems. There is a work-around in the form of an add-on called Open Download
    This adds another radio button to the dialogue, and it's labeled,
    "Open with default Win32 Application". It works and does exactly that -- opens the file with the application that Windows uses for that filetype.
    It doesn't, notice, say what that application IS, so you must know that yourself. And naturally, if something you install plays "swipe the file association" as so many applications do, this will change which application gets used without notice to you.
    Clearly, it would be better if DM worked as outlined, and told you what application it was going to use. But this workaround solves the basic problem.

  • Download Manager with Microsoft ISA Server

    Hello forum, I need help with the connection of program SAP DOWNLOAD MANAGER with ISA Server 2004 
    I've installed JAVA 1_4_2_13 and Download Manager, I configured the setting with the proxy connection (server ISA, user and pass) 
    but an error appears: 
    The basket content could not be read. The following exception occurred: 
    Unable to read data from the Service Marketplace: Check your settings and try again 
    In my ISA server I declared the form my IP to Internet permit all traffic out. 
    Somebody help me ??? what do I have to configure in my ISA Server to permit the connection? 
    Thanks.
    Costa Gustavo

    Hi Ram, I solved the problem with download manager. 
    First my PC don't use as default gateway the ISA Server, I've another default gateway for my LAN. 
    Is it the problem because my PC never contact directly to SAP, I could solved this problem if my PC can contact directly the IP of SAP. 
    You will can set in your PC the gateway of ISA server and public DNS to contact SAP directly 
    For example: 
    I've default gateway 192.168.0.1 for my LAN 
    My ISA server to internet is 192.168.0.9 
    Public DNS : (My ISP) 200.0.1.1 
    In your ISA server you can set a policy from your PC to External for all user with all traffic permit. 
    You try set in your PC the following: 
    Default gateway: 192.168.0.9 
    DNS: 200.0.1.1 
    I hope this can resolve your problem 
    Regards.

  • As firefox does not be able to complete downloads iw ould like to disable its download manager

    I have DAP as my default download manager.Sometimes tho Firefox decides to do the download it`s self.
    These downloads hardly ever complete ,yet they indicate complete.
    I would therefore like to disable Firefox download manager and rely totally on DAO.
    Please advise.
    Thank you
    Michael

    Welcome to the forum.
    The updates on firefox, like many other things in firefox are customisable / customizable, you can set it for instance to notify you but not update, or you check manually for updates, or allow it to update automatically.
    * see [[updating firefox]]
    * you may also find [[software update failed]] useful
    BTW you appear to be using an experimental beta version of firefox.
    If you are new to firefox it may well be worth installing the current release firefox 3.6.
    *otherwise
    ** you will remain on experimental versions and updates to those which you may not always want, - some may not always work or be compatible with other software
    ** you will not have the current stable version
    You should then follow the instructions to create an additional 'profile' so that each version has its own profile, otherwise you are likely to run in to problems. ( The "profile" stores bookmarks and a lot of your important firefox data, you do not want that to get messed up with beta editions of software) If you ever uninstall firefox note the option to remove settings removes all data bookmarks etc from ALL installed versions of firefox. (Firefox normally, otherwise, does a good job of presering settings and bookmarks etc)

  • Download manager does not open.  What should i do?

    I downloaded the Adobe download manager as a prelude to downloading and installing CS6.  All my downloads default to a seperate folder I set up.  The file is there, but I cannot open it - double click, with administrative privilages, after transferring to user folder, same problem.  Does not automatically open either like some other files do.  Any help is appreciated.
    Can I download CS6 directly without having to install the download manager?  Thank you.

    Do you receive any specific error messages?  You are welcome to initiate a direct download by following the steps listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369.  It seems like the download is complete however but you are having problems invoking the installer.  Which operating system are you using btw?

  • Securing file downloads to a client side download manager.

    The Requirement:
    I need to be able to have clients download a java based download manager that will allow them to log in to their account after they have purchased FLAC music files.
    The download manager would allow for resume. All of this is really not a problem.
    However I need it to be where they cannot download these files directly from server only through this client. And I need to either send a call to server when file is completed or server to somehow track there download.
    Can this download restriction be done via JSSE with SSLand Apache or am I looking at the wrong solution.
    Thanks,
    -M. Bazaillion

    You could have the server use SSL in such a way so that the only identity that can connect to the server is your client.
    You can do that by setting up the server with client authentication required, and a truststore that only trusts one certificate, and install that certificate in the client application's keystore. Don't let that keystore leak and you're done.

  • Problems to Download Dreamweaver CS4 with Akamai Download Manager!

    I want to download Dreamweaver CS4 Italian Windows Trial version.
    I have Internet Explorer 7, PC with OS Windows XP x64bit Corporate, Core2Quad Q9650, Motherboard MSI P45Platinum with Ethernet 10/100/1000,
    4GBRAM,3 HDD 500GB WesternDigital,Nvidia GeForce 9400GT.
    I have installed "Akamai Download Manager ActiveX" control asked on the top of window popup.
    Clicked Yes:Installation confirmation.
    But I have tried to click the button "Download" and just one window with this message appears and disappears immediately:
    Per scaricare il software è necessario installare Akamai Download Manager...
    Problemi di download?
    Assistenza per il download...
    Il sistema non dispone dei requisiti minimi per eseguire Akamai Download Manager.
    (The system doesn't meets the minimum system requirements to run Akamai Download Manager.)
    I can't download anything. Why?
    I have disable Pop-ups Blocker, and disabled also Anti-Phishing Filter.
    Disabled also Antivirus and the Firewall.
    Set and lowered Security Protection from Tools>Internet Options: to "Medium"; and also, another time, set to "Personalized" with all the controls
    switched to "Active".
    Set Privacy>Settings>"Accetta tutti i cookie"(lowered to full bottom).
    I have read this Akamai Download Manager FAQ:
    -"Nothing happens when I click the download link"
    If nothing happened after you clicked the download link, either your pop-up blocker or a high security setting on your web browser may have stopped
    the Akamai DLM window from opening.
    If you have a pop-up blocker enabled in your web browser or in your Internet toolbar (such as the Yahoo! toolbar or the Google toolbar), you will
    need to disable your pop-up blocker to start your download. For additional information, and for instructions on changing your security setting, see
    the "Akamai Download Manager system requirements" (ServiceNote kb400530).
    Note: The download manager can sometimes take up to a minute to load. Please allow time for the initial loading before assuming there is a problem
    Thus, I have followed this rules in Akamai Download Manager System Requirements:
    Internet Explorer 7
    1) Access your Internet options from the Windows Control Panel (Internet Options) or by selecting Tools > Internet Options in Internet Explorer
    2) Select the Security Tab
    3) Click Custom Level
    4) Scroll through the list of security options and set:
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Download signed ActiveX controls > Enable or Prompt
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Enable or Prompt
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting > Enable or Prompt
    -Downloads > File download > Enable
    -Miscellaneous > Allow script-initiated windows without size or position constraints > Enable
    -Scripting > Active scripting > Enable
    5) Click OK
    6) Click OK again
    But nothing changes.
    On my PC I have also this installation: "J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5" and "Java(TM)6 Update 15".
    But the download doesn't start at all.
    1) How can I do to download Dreamweaver CS4-Windows-ITALIAN language?
    2) Is it possible to download 364.8 MegaBytes without Akamai Download Manager?
    Please Hurry!

    another option you may have is resettofactory
    start- run- type:
    cmd
    press enter
    type:
    cd c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
    press enter
    type:
    loader.exe /resettofactory
    press enter
    please perform a backup first
    test your browser before you restore your backup, and to be ssafe I would do a selective restore
    open DTM, go to backup/restore- advanced
    top left click on file-open
    find your backup, it will load on the left side
    you current working BB will be on the right side
    transfer ONLY the absolute important databases from the left to the right(address, cal, phone logs, messages, sms, tasks, memo)... dont do any that you dont know and dont do any OPTIONS ones
