"Download decoding failed" message - help!

I've been trying to download a 40 MB file and once I've downloaded around 23MB of it, the download stops dead and I get a "Download decoding failed" message in my downloads window. The file works for other people so it must be a problem at my end. I've tried using Firefox as well, same problem. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
Thanks!

I ran my contact.js through JSHint and fixed the errors that it came up with -- I also changed the action back to "". And .... it still hates me!  Here's my contact.js code, if interested!
    $(document).ready(function(){
      $("#send").click(function(){
        var name   = $("#name").val();
        var email  = $("#email").val();
        var message  = $("#message").val();
        var error = false;
         if(email.length === 0 || email.indexOf("@") == "-1" || email.indexOf(".") == "-1"){
           $("#error_email").fadeIn(500);
         }else{
           $("#error_email").fadeOut(500);
         if(message.length === 0){
            $("#error_message").fadeIn(500);
         }else{
            $("#error_message").fadeOut(500);
         if(error === false){
           $("#send").attr({"disabled" : "true", "value" : "Loading..." });
           $.ajax({
             type: "POST",
             url : "send.php",   
             data: "name=" + name + "&email=" + email + "&subject=" + "You Got Email" + "&message=" + message,
             success: function(data){   
              if(data == 'success'){
                $("#btnsubmit").remove();
                $("#mail_success").fadeIn(500);
              }else{
                $("#mail_failed").html(data).fadeIn(500);
                $("#send").removeAttr("disabled").attr("value", "send");
        }return false;

  • HT201272 Keep getting error #499 when trying to download a song from an album I purchased that failed to download.  Error message appears when trying to download from iTunes and the cloud. Re-starting the computer did not help.

    I downloaded an album I purhcased a few days ago but one of the album's songs did not download.  I received an error message, #499, for which I can get no explanation or interpretation of what error #499 even is (other than generic terms).  All my efforts to re-start the download have failed.  I've tried several times to download the file to no avail, tried the cloud service to no avail, and re-started the computer to no avail.
    My main intention is to, of course, get the download completed.  My secondary intention is to, hopefully, bring to the attention of Apple - iTunes staff, the grossly inadequate, dare I say cryptic, error message descriptions iTunes displays. 
    I can provide the purchase receipt number if it is required.

    Hey SDGardella,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are receiving error 499 when attempting to download purchases from the iTunes Store. The following resource outlines this error message:
    iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
    "Error 499"
    This alert occurs due to security software. Follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Thanks,

  • I'm trying to download Final Cut Pro from the app store but I get a "fail" message.  I have enough space on my laptop.  Help?

    I have purchased Final Cut Pro App for my Mac Book Pro.  It will start to download but then I receive a simple download failed message.  I've tried many times.  I have enough space on my laptop.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Select
              /var/log ▹ appstore.log
    from the hierarchical list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, click the Clear Display button in the toolbar of the Console window and then try the installation again.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • I have a Mac 10.4.11. When downloading Flash 10.1, got a verification failed message.

    My Mac is a 10.4.11.  I installed the flash player 10.1 through a website called Jibjab.com. once installed and on that site, my computer started going through a "refresh loop", so to speak.  Wasn't sure if it was the site or the new FP version, so uninstalled and tried to re-install Flash...now, when trying to download, I get a "verification failed" message on my download page.  Any ideas on how to resolve this?  Thanks in advance for any help I can receive on this issue!

    Hi, You should only use Adobe sites and links to Install Flash Player.
    Download and SAVE the Adobe Uninstaller to your Desktop:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Then go to this Adobe site and download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for Mac:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    Then close all browsers, run the Uninstaller and then Reboot(restart) your computer. Then run the Installer and then Reboot.
    When that is completed check to make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is Installed and Enabled.
    Hope that helps,

  • PSE9 & Win 8 - Get download failed messages when I update

    I deinstalled PSE9 from my Win XP,installed in Win 8 and get download failed messages when I update (to 9.0.3 & Camera Raw 6.5). Pressing the error message i get to a screen 'Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell' Adobe support asked me some qusetions via Chat and then told me to come here as they do not support older versions....can anyone help please?

    I have since found out by googling that the two updates (9.0.3 & Camera Raw) can be applied as patches separately outside of PSE9, did that, worked fine and when I go into PSE9, help,updates it says I am upto date and more importantly I can now edit my Raw images.

    I am unable to receive or send email from my IPAD.  The error message says "Connection to server failed".  Help!! geandreamer44

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above helped, restart your router.
    No data is lost due to a reset.

    Sorry to hear your Adobe experience has been less than stellar.  I'll try to help...
    1.  Photoshop 14.2.1 is now two releases out of date.  You might want to go to your Creative Cloud application and ask it to install Photoshop CC (2014).  Earlier this year Adobe released 2014.0 as a separate install that can live side by side with 14.2.1.  Then just a few days ago they released 2014.1 as an in-place upgrade to 2014.0.
    2.  You may be able to update Camera Raw directly to version 8.6 by a link from this page:
    Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
    Best of luck to you.  Please let us know here if these things help.

  • UPDATE FAILED MESSAGE WHEN TRYING TO DOWNLOAD FROM CC DESKTOP APP.

    I keep getting an 'update failed' message everytime I try to download from my CC desktop.
    What could this be?

    Kc2232 I would recommend reviewing the installation log for the update to determine why it is failing to install. You can find details on how to locate and interpret your installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • I get the"download iPod updater"message &downloading the updater won't help

    Here's what happened:
    I plugged my iPod into my iTunes to put music on it.
    It says "Do Not Disconnect" like it alwasys does, but this time doesn't go away. It stays for 45 minutes. IN an act of desperation, I disconnect.
    I lose everything.
    "Not a big deal" I think, because I can just put the stuff on my iPod again.
    I connect the two, I get the "download iPod updater" message. I download it. Same thing.
    I uninstall and reinstall about 3 times.
    Still same thing.
    PLEASE HELP.

    im having pretty much the EXACT same problem with mine. tried the "5 r's" yadda yadda, completely useless. this is my second ipod, i had a 4G that died a few months ago, which had the same problem, but about 6 months after i bought it. my 5G is brand new, got it for xmas like most people, next day i plug it in and BAM, its been blinking that **** little red circle for days and ive tried everything. im just gonna make use of my warrenty and send it in for repairs. ill post if i figure something out before then.
