Download multiple file URL's at once in Safari 5.1?

If I have a list of URL's of files (MP3's in this case) I used to be able to copy and paste the whole list into the Downloads window in the previous version of Safari and it would begin downloading all of them automatically.
With the elimination of the Downloads window in Safari 5.1 I can't figure out how to do this; I know I can download one URL at a time by pasting it into the address bar and Option-Return, but that doesn't work with a long list of URLs.
Any idea of how this works in Safari 5.1?
Thanks,
Dave

Problem solved, thanks to your suggestion. I had installed third party software, Speed Download, which in previous versions of Safari would add a menu bar item allowing it to manage downloads. SD did not appear to work with Safari 5.1, the menu bar no longer allowed access to the software, but it was interecepting download commands (not opening the SD program to download them, however). I used the SD uninstaller to remove the program, and now Safari downloads behave normally. I did try safe mode boot, which did not solve the problem, but it was definitely the download manager causing the problem.
Thank you!

Can't download multiple files from page without refresh with Safari

Safari 5.1 on imac osx 10.6.8. Just downloaded 5.1 and now I can't download more than 1 file at a time without refreshing the page (or paging back, then forward again) for each download. What is going on? How do i fix this?

Quit Safari.
Open a Finder window select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder.
Move the cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari. Try Downloads.

Download multiple files with 1 HttpURLConnection

Hi,
We have an application that downloads small text files (< 2 Kb) from a webserver. These files are downloaded 1 by 1 when needed. We open a HttpURLConnection, download 1 file and close the connection immediately afterwards. This is done for each file and hence produces a significant overhead.
For performance reasons (both client and server side), we would like to open a connection to the webserver once, download a number of files and then close the connection.
Currently, our code roughly looks like:
InputStream is;
HttpURLConnection con;
int resp;
try {
    URL url = new URL(location);
    con = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
    resp=con.getResponseCode();
    if(resp==HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
        is = con.getInputStream();
        // ... read data from the InputStream
        is.close();
} catch (MalformedURLException murle) {
    murle.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException ioe) {
    ioe.printStackTrace();
}Is it even possible to download multiple files from a web server using a HttpURLConnection? If so, how? :-)
Please note that the solution should be compliant with J2SE 1.1, since we are writing an MHP application!
Thanks in advance...

Seerix,
You might be able to fudge the settings of the URL class :
Class URLStreamHandler
Method protected void setURL
Sets the fields of the URL argument to the indicated values. Only classes derived from URLStreamHandler are supposed to be able to call the set method on a URL.
But this is not the best way, as URLs are supposed to be constant.
Your alternative, is to create a Socket, deal with the protocol requirements
(i.e. HTTP GET, POST and so on) then you can request any number files
on that same connection. The only thing that this saves is connection build up and tear down.
You could also multi-thread your original code ....... Although that might
only save you some network transit time.

Download multiple files in one step

Hi,
my first try with acrobat.com with uploading some pictures which I like to share with friends led me to the question, how they can download my 18 pictures in one step. I put them in a workspace and gave them access. You can mark all files, but there is no menu point which offers you to download all files in one step.
Is there a way to do this in one step?
Greetings
Mario

Hello Mario,
Thank you for posting. Unfortunately, there is currently no way to download multiple files at once; this functionality is high on our list of planned enhancements, so I encourage you to stay tuned for future releases.
Best regards,

Aria2 does not download multiple files at a time

I'm trying to speed up my system upgrades by using aria2, but it won't speed up anything as it does not download multiple files at a time.
As per this wiki post, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Im … erformance , "using aria2", I've installed aria2 and added the line
XferCommand = /usr/bin/aria2c --allow-overwrite=true -c --file-allocation=none --log-level=error \
-m2 --max-connection-per-server=2 --max-file-not-found=5 --min-split-size=5M --no-conf \
--remote-time=true --summary-interval=60 -t5 -d / -o %o %u
to the options section in pacman.conf. Pacman still works, but it isn't sped up. When pacman -Syu'ing, a normal line shows:
#1 SIZE:1.3MiB/2.0MiB(63%) CN:1 SPD:50.0KiBs ETA:15s
What's going on?
P.S. I use the line reflector -l 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist before doing a system upgrade.

Using aria2c will download files over 5MB with multiple connections but will not download multiple files at the same time. Pacman calls aria2c with the first url, waits for it to finish, then calls aria2c with the second etc...
If you want to download multiple packages simultaneously, see http://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/pacman2aria2/

Download Multiple Files?? (Servlets/Jsp)

Hello Forum Members,
I need to download multiple files from Server on a single click of button thats says "download". Using Servlets/Jsp only( I don't want to use applets/or Zip the files).
The scenario would be on the browser I will have 'n' number of checkboxes each corresponding to a file and there is a button that say's download. Once I click "download" the browser should prompt me to save in a directory.

I don't know if there's a Java implementation already out there (i'm sure there must be), but I think you'd need a separate Download Manager to be able to handle multiple file downloads. I'm all but positive that the standard download isn't gonna cut it, especially if the user selects a whole bunch of files. I don't think the built in download function allows for more than one file to download at a time, so unless you want a whole bunch of download windows all going at once, you'll need to either find (or implement) something that can.

Download multiple files

hi,all
downloading files from server has been discussed for many times, i have known how to download one file after reading some older topics,but now i want to download
multiple files,and I want browser prompt "Save As" only one time, then all the files would be downloaded to the same location,can anybody give me some advice?
thanks & regards

Hi,
I don't think it sounds like what you're tyring to do would be possible for security reasons. I'd be quite worried if a browser was allowed to save multiple files after only asking once.
I guess one solution would be to zip all the files up into one zip file (see JavaDocs for java.util.zip) and then transfer this zip file (this would also probably help with download times). This may not be the ideal solution for you though.

OSD: Downloading multiple files is very slow

I has a exe software. It is not a single file package, it contains a lot of files. when I installed this software in OSD, I found it would spend 15~20minutes to download files.
It was very strange. The software is only 750 mb size. the speed of downloading 6 GB OS image is also much faster than this software.
I know downloading multiple files is slower than downloading a single file, if their size are same.
But the downloading of multiple files in OSD is "really" very slow.
Why? Cause of BITS or RDC? How to fix it?
PS：I update to SCCM 2012 R2 with CU1, add the below into SCCM
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\DP]
"RamDiskTFTPBlockSize"=dword:00004000
http://windowsdeployments.net/how-to-speed-up-pxe-boot-in-wds-and-sccm/
Now, the download speed up to 4 minutes, but it still slower than the normal copy & paste.
Test result:
OSD: 2.6G
single image, 2 minutes
OSD: 750m multiple files, 4 mintues
after OSD, copy & paste from network drive, 750 multiple files, 1 mintue

I had updated to CU1 and add this into regedit . It is quicker than before, but it still slower than the normal.

How can I download multiple files simultaneously? e.g. 6 files

When I attempt to download multiple files (say 5 in number), the Mozilla allows only two files too be downloaded simultaneously. I wanted to change the option of downloading six files together but did not find the feature that could do so. Can you please kindly help or there is no such feature in Mozilla?

There is a hidden preference for this. Check out this article: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server Network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server - MozillaZine Knowledge Base]
If you haven't changed Firefox settings through about:config before, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)

How to download multiple files?

I have an air app where a user can click a thumbnail and download that file to their download folder.
My question is how to go about allowing the user to select more than one and download them instead of one at a time.
Do i need to just put the download in a loop? Also My custom item renderer and stopped the tiles from looking like they are selected, how would i make them look selected?

try this
private function downloadFile(url:String):void{
            var urlStream:URLStream = new URLStream();
               var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
            downloadFileName=getDownloadFilename(url);
                  urlStream.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, writeFile);
                  urlStream.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR , function (e:IOErrorEvent):void{
                  urlStream.load(request);
            urlStream.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError);
     private function getDownloadFilename(URL:String):String{
            return(URL.substring(URL.lastIndexOf("/"),URL.length));
        private function onIOError (e:IOErrorEvent):void
            trace("An Error Occured and it looked like this.", e.text);
         private function writeFile(event:Event):void {
             var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
             var file:File=//perfered filename with location
            fileStream.open(file, FileMode.WRITE);
             var dataBuffer:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
            event.target.readBytes(dataBuffer, 0, event.target.bytesAvailable);
            fileStream.writeBytes(dataBuffer, 0, dataBuffer.length);
             fileStream.close();
            event.target.close();
            downloadFile(NEXT_ONE);

Download Multiple Files in one specified location

Hi All,
Suppose there are many documents which user wants to download in one specified location in local system.
So is it possible in Web Dynpro Java?
I have read documents on FileDownload UI Element and experimented on it. But I was not able to achieve the requirement.
I was able to download single file at a time. So that means if there are 3 file to be downloaded, user will have to click on 3 different
FileDownload UI Element, specify the path and download it.
Can't we make it simple for user where he/she click FileDownload once and then all files get downloaded in that path.
Best Regards,
Gopal

Hi Gopal,
Using Filedownload UI Element, you can only able to download one file.
But if you want to download group of files once. simply use java ZIP API(java.util.zip.*) to compress all the files into .zip format and download using the filedownload UI element.
Regards,
Naga

How to download multiple files from Creative Cloud

I uploaded about 30 photos to creative cloud storage. Now I cannot find a way to download a group or all at the same time. You can select multiples and move to different folders within CC, but can't download multiples. Had I known this before using it, I would have made a zip folder of images. It seems a bit clunky if this is true.

[email protected]
Thanks for the info. As a professional user, more functionality in the storage would be helpful. Right now I'm using other file transfer and storage soulutions that are far superior.
I think most Cloud users would very much agree with you.
The Cloud today is a reasonable version 1 product but it's clunky, lacks fundamental features and is a latecomer to a rapidly maturing market. Other offerings currently shine in comparison.
Our expectations as consumers are very high because we're used to the Dropboxes (and other superior 3rd party solutions) out there.
Adobe has been inundated with feature suggestions and enhancements from users. The more, the better.
They might, as they claim, be working on improvements but they've got to get a move on before the Cloud tarnishes its own reputation too much due to lack of (expected) features.

Download multiple files and rename

I have a folder with 20+ .webloc files, all pointing to Google calendar .ics downloads. (The URLs all look like "https://www.google.com/calendar/.../basic.ics".) I want to be able to automate downloading each of these, but the problem is that, no matter what the calendar, the file is always named "basic.ics". What I'd like to do is 1) iterate through each .webloc in a specific folder, 2) download each one to another folder and 3) name the downloaded file according to the associated .webloc (ie, reed.webloc would download to reed.ics in a different folder).
My AppleScript skills are pretty lousy, and Automator does not seem to be able to manage this sort of renaming of the download. Anybody got any advice? Is there an existing script out there somewhere that I can modify for my needs?

I think this will do it:
set basePath to "path:to:folder:where:ics folders live"
set weblocFolderPath to "path:to:folder:with:webloc files"
tell application "Finder"
-- extract pertinent info from webloc files
          set {locs, filenames} to {location, name} of every internet location file of folder weblocFolderPath
end tell
repeat with i from 1 to count of locs
--remove .webloc extension from name
          set newName to text 1 thru -8 of item i of filenames
-- make new folder with webloc file name
          tell application "Finder"
                    if not (exists folder newName of folder basePath) then
              make new folder at folder basePath with properties {name:newName}
                    end if
                    set theFolderPath to folder newName of folder basePath as text
          end tell
-- download ics file into the folder (replacing if needed) with webloc file name
          tell application "URL Access Scripting"
                    set newFile to download (item i of locs) to (theFolderPath & newName & ".ics") replacing yes
          end tell
end repeat
basePath is the folder where you want to make the folders to store the downloaded ics files
weblocFolderPath is the folder where your 20 weblocs are stored
both paths should be listed as text strings, colon delimited, including the disk name (e.g. "hard disk name:folder name:folder name:final folder name")
