Downloading via dial-up

I love my Mini, I really do.
Just have one itsy-bitsy problem with it.
It take forever to download anything with the dial-up line I have. And since the recent security upgrades are so huge and my isp time is limited to four hours....there is no way I can get the newest stuff.
(No way unless I spend major bucks on more USB memory sticks, apparently.)
If the Mac Mini downloading program is supposed to allow you to pause/get disconnected/then go back online and resume from the last part....mine is not doing that.
So is there any downloading program designed for Macs that will allow resuming after being knocked offline? I can find them for PC's, but so far nothing for Macs.
Am I missing something that's available for situations lik mine?

So is there any downloading program designed for Macs
that will allow resuming after being knocked offline?
Try using iCab. You may or may not like it as a browser, but it has the best download manager around. It will let you resume interrupted downloads (server permitting). I have used it for since OS 9.x.

HEY GUYS I AM USING AN IPHONE 3g and when i connect my device to my laptop a dialog box appears saying that an update of 4.2 is available so went for it.after the firmware is downloaded via itunes it shows that the firmware is invalid!.please help.
AND ALSO I HAVE HEARD THAT THE IPHONE 3G CANNOT BE UPDATED TO IOS 4.2!IS IT TRUE???
PLEASE HELP ME.

This means that the phone you have was software unlocked to use on any carrier, or hacked. When you installed the update it restored the lock that originaly came with your phone. Not much you can do now. Apple will not support hacked phones. You will need to find out the carrier your phone is locked to and see if they offer official unlocking, or start googling to see if you can find a way to unlock 4.2.

Is there any way to get my music that I've downloaded via different apps or made via my MusicStudio to show up on my music app?

I have been researching and trying different apps all night and I've ended up spending four dollars that I ended up wasting. I'm sure there's a very easy answer. I have an iPad, it is the newest iOS software, my question is, is there anyway to get the music that I've downloaded on say Amazon or that I've made via my MusicStudio app to show up in my music on my iPad without having to then download it to my computer to get on iTunes to transfer from my computer to my iPad again? I've got the music on my iPad, but both of the apps that I use to make a video with the music just use the native music app to search for the music on the iPad and shows the some 69 songs that I've either downloaded via iTunes or transferred from my laptop to my iPad. it won't show any of the other stuff that is on there. Is there any app that I could get that will help me to add music to my native music app so we'll show up or is there anything I can do other then transferring it from iTunes on my laptop back to my iPad?
Thanks.

You will need to go via your computer's iTunes - to get music into the Music app you either need to download it directly on the iPad from the iTunes store app, or sync it from your computer's iTunes

Lync client won't connect to a conference via dial-in number hosted on deterrent pool than conference.

I have been
troubleshooting a very strange issue with Lync clients being unable to connect
to a conference via dial-in number when the conference is hosted on a different
pool. This happens internally and there is no media gateway or SIP trunk
involved.<o:p></o:p>
Users are
unable to join a conference from Polycom CX phones and Lync 2013/2010 software clients
by dialling conference Dial-in number which is located on a different pool than
actual conference. Users are prompted to input their conference ID, however,
they are never connected to the conference (10 min silence followed by error
announcement). <o:p></o:p>
This only
happens if the dial-in number is homed on a different pool than conference.
Both pools are Lync 2013 Standard Edition running on Windows Server 2012.
Servers and clients are patched with the latest CU.<o:p></o:p>
I noticed that
when you call dial-in number’s SIP address, user will get transferred to a
conference (works ok). When you dial just a number users is never transferred
and RT Audio traffic still goes directly to a server which is hosting dial-in
number.<o:p></o:p>
After
checking Lync traces it looks like Lync client ignores the REFER message from
the FE server hosting Dial-in number and it never send an INVITE to the server
whit active conference.<o:p></o:p>
The only difference
between INVITES for working calls and calls that failed to connect to the
conference is the presence of the user=phone in TO header:<o:p></o:p>
Working
invite:<o:p></o:p>
TO:
<sip:[email protected]><o:p></o:p>
Failed invite:

Please try to disable refer support for all pools.
The problem seems occur when Attendant transfer the call to another pool.
Please provide more trace file information.

are trying to better understand customer views on social support experience, so your participation in this

Making pdf content downloadable via link in Iview problem

Hi,
I have been having problems with the following scripting code, where I have a link that when clicked makes a PDF file stored in the KM downloadable to the users local area.The file does download to the users desktop but when opened, the content is corrupt. So when a user clicks the view link the PDF document is loaded into the browser iframe with no issues. However when they click the download link they get the attached error.The file can be viewed properly through an iframe in an iview on the portal but when downloaded via this script 'token missing' errors occur.
I have pasted the code and would appreciate any help offered.
Thanks
Rebecca

                                   pResponse.write("</tr>");

                         String uri = componentURI.toString();
                         pResponse.write("<script>");

               mDbUtil.writeException(ex, pResponse );
          } catch (ResourceException ex) {
               ex.printStackTrace();
               mDbUtil.writeException(ex, pResponse );
          } catch(Exception ex) {
               ex.printStackTrace();
               mDbUtil.writeException(ex, pResponse );

I am not quite sure what this is supposed to be doing, however, a better method would be to have a custom component which accepts a RID to a resource. This component would then read the content of the PDF (using its bytes) and write these bytes out to the HttpServletResponse output stream. You need to make sure that the HTTP header content-disposition is also set correctly (can't remember exactly what this should be, however, a quick google search should return the correct results).
This should be all you need to do I believe. Let me know if you need any help with this further

Cannot read PDF files downloaded via acsm

The app does not allow copying and reading the PDF downloaded via acsm delivery mechanism as it reports to be protected. Is this known issue or needs to be treated like a feature request. On PC, you read this document via Adobe Digital Editions.
Thanks, soujanna

That is definitely a very old Reader version! Uninstall it, then install the latest Reader for Vista, which is 10.1.9

Puchased mountain lion from app store and tried downloading via store 4 times, always rcvg an alert stating "error downloading"

puchased mountain lion from app store and tried downloading via store 4 times, always rcvg an alert stating "error downloading"
Is there any other mean to get the mountain lion.
I ve a 512kbps connection.

I believe you have correctly identified your 512kbps connection as the source of the problem.
The Mountain Lion download is more than 4 gigabytes. You should try hard to find a much better, faster, more robust connection.

Ipad download via 3G too large

Downloading app via 3G led to message: larger than 20mb, download via wi-fi or i-tunes. iPad shows app with loading indicator. Connected via itunes, but app did not download. iPad app icon shows loading but no blue bar indicator of progress. Tried to delete, but icon does not present X.

I have a 3G Data plan as my only internet access.
You don't say what type of computer you have and I can only help with Mac but no doubt you can share access with windows too.
Put the Mac online using 3G > System Prefs > Internet sharing. > via Airport.
Check under 'Help' for more info.
Don't forget to put a password on your new hot spot so the neighbours don't use it.
The other option is a 3G to WiFi Travel router.. MyZone, MiFi etc.
