Computer freezes and I cannot download files from PC to droid!

Any thoughts on why my pc locks up when I connect the Droid?? Also, I am unable to download any files; music, pics,ect..!! I contacted HTC, to no avail! I re-set factory settings, (lost all my contacts) re-booted. Nothing! Any one have a similar scenario?? Help

Check JYoon’s post on disabling CD ROM mode on your device. (Post below)
http://community.vzw.com/t5/DROID-Incredible-by-HTC/Computer-connection-issue-MAC/td-p/299898
2. Once complete, put your device in Mass storage mode. I have provided the instruction in an article below:
http://search.vzw.com/?do=viewdoc&id=31795
Connect the phone to your computer using the supplied USB cable.
2.      When the Connect to PC dialog box appears, tap Disk drive, and then tap Done.
3.      On your computer, the connected phone is recognized as a removable disk. Navigate to this removable disk and open it.
4.      Do one of the following:
Copy the files from the computer to the phone’s storage card’s root folder. Copy the files from the phone’s storage card to a folder in your computer or computer desktop.
5.       After copying the files, un-mount the removable disk (that is, the connected phone) as required by your computer’s operating system to safely remove your phone.
6.         Do one of the following:
Disconnect the phone from the computer. If you want to keep the phone connected to the computer but want the phone to be able to access the storage card, open the Notifications panel, tap Disk drive, select an option except Disk drive, and then tap Done. See “Opening the Notifications panel” in this chapter to learn how to open the Notifications panel.
*Once in mass storage mode, the device should pop up on your computer as a device letter. If not, or if your computer freezes up again, try another USB port.
*Also try restarting your computer.

With Firefox 4, I cannot download files from the internet. Please help me !

I cannot download files from the internet (with Firefox 4). I was able to until this upgrade. I am disappointed.
The site specifically is www.c64g.com/games.php?q=p

What buttons do you get to click on with this message? What browser are you using (e.g. Safari, Chrome, Internet Explorer...)

Cannot download files from certain websites: log-in prompt

Hi, I am for some reason getting a log-in prompt when clicking on downloadable files from certain websites (pdf files, etc.). It is especially strange because it is happening on multiple sites, which gave me no problem downloading in the past. This is particular to my computer, and it is happening in different locations, so it can't be a problem with my isp or something.
I am getting this prompt:
"To view this page, you need to log in to area "PAGE TITLE" on "www.address.com:80"
Your password will be sent in the clear."
(Where PAGE TITLE and address.com are specific to the page I'm trying to access)
I've tried giving a username and password, but it didn't work. I tried emptying my cache and deleting cookies, renewing my ip address, to no avail. I do not use any proxies, so I am really confused now.
I've found no documentation of anyone else having this issue.
Any help would be appreciated!

i figured it out... it was just a strange coincidence, nothing wrong after all.

I am running Windows 7 and I cannnot download files from Firefox

I just got a new PC (Dell Precision M6500) with Windows 7 Ultimate and I have transferred my profile setting over from my old laptop running Windows XP Professional and now I cannot download files in Firefox. How can I fix this?

Just checking:
# Do you try to downgrade, because you had problems upgrading to the latest version? If so, have you tried the suggestions at [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]]?
# What is the actual message, when installing Firefox 3.6? Does it really mention that you need install version 10? Note that the latest version is 9.0.1.
# Did you download the installer from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html ?

I cannot download files from some websites

Since upgrading to ver 5.0, I cannot download statements from many of my financial websites. I am forced to start IE or Opera to download. Sometimes I am able to right click the link, and do 'Save Link as' and it will download, but not all. My Verizon bill is the latest failure today. When I clock on the link, I get a new tab opening that shows 'about:blank' in the web link, and says 'done' in the status bar. It does nothing after that.

When reading about the antivirus, I didn't equate that to the iPhone. Since antivirus software cannot run in the background on an iPhone, that isn't it and if pop-up blockers was enabled before I doubt that has anything to do with it either.
Is the statement in PDF format?

That sounds odd...
Any error messages? What happens when you try to download an item? Have you tried downloading to a specific, non-desktop, folder?

Problems with Yahoo, I Cannot download files from my mail or logout from my account.

Recently, I have discovered that I cannot logout from my Yahoo account without closing Firefox, which clears my history. Also, I have problems downloading files from my email. At first I thought maybe Yahoo was having some issues but when I use Safari, I don't have these problems. Any idea as to what my problem could be?

I can't think any way in which Adobe Reader is involved in downloading pics from your camera. If you think Adobe is involved, check the name of the Adobe software you are using, they make lots of stuff.

At times I cannot download files from Firefox, but I can in IE

Hello,
My problem is twofold. Firstly at least once in three, I cannot download my attachments from gmail. What happens is the download window flashes up for a half second. Then it disappears. The file is NOT downloaded in the appropriate folder (or anywhere else), I have checked that.
Secondly, I am trying to listen to a radio station from the website below, but anytime I click on the Listen link, nothing happens except for the download window flashing for a half second. Then it disappears. I can only assume it is a .pls file as most internet radios have a file with such an extension for their playlist.
Both errors have been occuring since the update of 3.6.10.
Thanks for any insight.

The eLocity A7 tablet you have should technically work with the mobile Firefox.
It has Android 2.2 and most importantly a ARMv7 type of cpu, a NVIDIA Tegra II T20 and it has 512MB RAM.
mbrubeck who works on mobile Firefox has been recommending to try the Firefox 9 Beta's because it includes a new interface designed especially for Android tablets.
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox_beta
Current mobile Firefox 9.0 Beta 4 for Android (will need to manually update):
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/releases/9.0b4/android/multi/fennec-9.0b4.multi.eabi-arm.apk
mobile Firefox 8.0 for Android:

IDVD is not on my system and I cannot download it from the App store. How Do I burn my home movies to DVD?

iDVD is not in my macBook pro and I need an iDVD or a good program to burn my home movies on DVD with menus. I cannot download iDVD or any other professional programs like DVD Studioor ... from App store. Please help me how do I burn my short films to DVD? Also please tell me any other free programs alternate it for burn DVD with putting menus.

Hi
iDVD is not or never been free !
there are up-dates but still You need the original iDVD v. 7.x.x to use them.
Best of program - not sold by Apple any more but on Amazon or e-bay in boxed versions of iLife 11
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on Internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
AppleMan1958
You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

Word and Excel hang "downloading" file from network drive - copy file to be able to open it

Word or Excel hang trying to open files on a network drive maybe after an untidy close.
Symptoms: pick the file from a pinned entry on recent list or even direct from File!Open... or by double clicking on the file from file explorer. Word/Excel show in the middle of the status line a comment "Downloading:filename "
a progress bar, that shows no progress, and a white cross on a red circle to close. Some minutes later may Excel/Word say could not open filename.
I have removed any temporary copies of the file prefixed with the ~. However there are no documents shown in any document recovery pane.
If I rename the original file the problem is still there.
I can only clear the problem by working on a copy of the file. It works with either a new name of if the copy is used to replace the original file.
It seems file explorer's "copy" is clearing something within the file that is causing this problem.
I have seen the same issue with both Excel and Word documents in native Office 2010 format.
Is there a better way to clear this issue?
Thanks

It doesn't hang/crash, does it?

Cannot download files from the internet

Two G4 Macs, both on OS 10.4.6. Desktop (ethernet connection) will not download files/apps -- hit the button and it very quickly flickers and says "done" but nothing has downloaded. Laptop (Airport connection) will download correctly from the same sites. Have repaired permissions, and have tried turning off firewall (Norton) with no result. Obviously some setting in the desktop, but I'm perplexed...
G4 iMac Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hi Michael,
hit the button and it very quickly flickers and says "done" but nothing has downloaded
That description sounds like a bad/incompatible SpeedDownload installation. Do you recall installing that in the past?
Either way, try going to http://www.yazsoft.com -> Downloads and then download the installer by control-clicking/right-clicking on the download link and choose "Download Linked File". Once downloaded, run the installer, but select the Uninstall option.
Give your browsers a restart and retry after trying the uninstallation.
Edit: All Comp's are Model T's, try the same procedure as well. Hopefully $5 will be on their way to me

Cannot Download Files from Certain Web Site

There is a website I must use for work quite often. Whenever I try to download or open a file from the site, I get the following error:
Safari can't open the file.
Safari can't open the file ""2010 Pennsylvania Release Notes.pdf" because ""2010 Pennsylvania Release Notes.pdf" has moved since you downloaded it.
I am using a Windows XP machine and these files work fine with any other browser. I really want to make Safari my default browser, but it is out of the question as long as this continues to happen with Safari alone.

I just noticed, when I try downloading a PDF file using Safari from this website, it puts a " in front of the file name. It does not do this with any other browser. I think this may be what is causing the issue. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!!

HT201272 I cannot find previously purchased downloads of American Idol performance video's on my iMac after it had a virus and I cannot download them from the Store?

My iMac had a Trojan Horse virus and I had to reformat and install it's OS again. Now I cannot download any of my video's that I purchased from the iTunes store of Amerian Idol in 2009. How could I get them back?
Thanks in advance for your help.

We are fellow users on here, you are not talking to iTunes Support here.
Whether a film will show in the Purchased link will depend upon what country that you are in (redownloading films isn't possible in all countries), what studio that they are from (not all allow re-downloading), whether they are still in the store (studios occasionally remove them from the store), and whether you've hidden them or not (hiding and unhiding).
Do any films show in the Purchased link, and do you not have copies of them somewhere ? If some do show but others don't then are they hidden (some might also have been removed from the store or the studio doesn't allow re-downloading) ? If you do have Movies as an option in the Purchased tab and you think that there should be more listed there (and you haven't changed countries since buying them), then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they know why they aren't showing
But as with all content from the store you should be keeping and maintaining your own backup copy of them, as there is no guarantee that a content provider won't remove their items from the store.

Cannot download files from services like Rapidgator any longer

Use Firefox as my browser. High speed connection via Comcast on a 1-year old HP laptop running Windows-7, protected by Kaspersky.
This just started yesterday afternoon - when trying to "Download" a File from services like RAPIDGATOR
when I hit the "Download" button it just goes to "Searching" and the file never opens. This is also happening with other file services I subscribe to. I have already deleted my "History" and "Cookies" and it did not help. Also tried to download with Kaspersky turned off, that did not help.
any ideas?

We are experiencing some proxy issues, this bump should be cleared up shortly with version 18.0.1 to land.
Thank You!

Cannot download files from private published site

I am using the "published site private" option settings to control user access with a user name and password. This site has a page with links to pdf files stored on my me.com account. The pdf items are to be opened and downloaded by users who access this page through the security settings.
With the security settings removed the process to download files works OK
With security settings enabled, the user name and password successfully open the site but the pdf items will not open and cannot be downloaded.
What am I doing wrong?

You can protect PDF files with a password and user name. When you go to save the document as a PDF file, i.e. Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save as PDF, there will be a window to set password and user name.
Click to view full size
That would work for files to be downloaded but not for the pages themselves.
