Downloading woes

This web site expects us to be able to download an entire product
in one go! No way will this happen to us with flakey
connections!
I need an Oracle client for Linux. just the client. But to get
this, I'm going to have to download the entire server package,
at
168 megs.
Does anyone involved with the web site monitor these forums? How
about providing 10-meg chunks to be put together? I've seen this
for some products here, and it works.
And providing the client software seperately from the server
would be good. It's done here for NT/95, why not the other OS's?
Hopefully this website can become a more useful resource.

pacman has to check the dependencies and stuff, so it may take about a minute in some cases. But after the first run the file database should be in your RAM, so the searches shouldn't take more than a couple seconds.

Do you mean pacman can't find the packages on the mirrors or there are no errors and it just is working a bit long?

CS6 download woes

Win 7 CS6 download failed. I am logged on as administrator, but Akami says installer does not have access when I try to rerun download. Downloaded the 2 Files on Alternative Install but Running CS6 says there are missing files. How can I clean everything out and start new download?

Uninstall CS6 from Control Panel and run the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
Re-downlaod CS6 from adobe.com and try to install.

More download woes

After thinking the problem was fixed, I again cannot download the updates. Here's the message I get: "Unable to extract the downloaded files. Press retry to download again. (U44M1I210)" Retrying the process produces the same negative rusult. How can I resolve this?

I assume that you have the "perpetual" version of PSCS6
Deactivate the PSCS6.
Uninstall the PSCS6 - using the uninstall photoshop app in photoshop folder with Mac. I think control panel on windows.
Reinstall PSCS6 - the error code you got (U44M1****} is usually associated with some missing file. Reinstalling will fix that.
Then install the CC version. When it is installed, run the the CC version and go to help menu where you choose "update".
When this finishes you should have version 13.1.2

Download woes

Hi folks !

Hi:
It is just because everybody like you, want to download from that busy ftp server. You may 1) wait until others have downloaded or, 2) buy them from Oracle ...

Desktop download woes

Everything I download, either via limewire or firefox doesn't appear on my desktop unless I search for it and click on the exact item in the search window, it then magically springs into being on the desktop - any ideas?

It seems weird it can't cope though, it worked fine on my old G4 Powerbook and now the Macbook Pro can't handle it?
Also I'm finding that sometimes the items in the trash dont disappear until I open the trash folder and click on them, at which point they disappear immediatly... Could these two issues be related?

Download and delete woes !

a) I have purchased 10 books: 6 have downloaded to my Ipad, 4 have not.
My device tells me that I am fully sync'd, yet, with 4 books not downloaded, it is incorrect.
How do I get around this impasse
b) there are a number of, presumably, free books in my library that I have no wish to read: how do I remove them ?
c) I have tried the ipad app removal technique ( press the app until it wiggles and shows an x but that doe'nt work.
d) I have looked in the FAQ's for ' delete' and 'remove ' books but the comments are of no practical use.
All suggestions are welcome as frustration is pileing up by the ton !!!!!

Is this really Adobe Reader you're using? Doesn't sound a familiar problem or something I could do with Adobe Reader.

Download accelerator woes

I downloaded Download Accelerator Plus a while ago. Seeing as it was just a demo, I uninstalled it. Now when i'm using Camino (or any browser for that matter) if i try to download from certain sources such as mac software sites, mirrors or download.com, i get a message saying
"DapPlugin is unable to find download accelerator plus application. please make sure to launch DAP to complete installation.
i deleted some things related to DAP but that may have made it worse. This is driving me crazy. There doesnt seem to be a plugin manager or a setting that cancels use of download accelerators. How can i get rid of this message and start downloading again? Thanks
Powerbook G4 15" 1.67 Ghz 512 Mb Superdrive Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I think the uninstaller was busted, as when i opened it it quickly closed and did nothing. i did however find dapPlugin in the library folder, and deleted it, solving my problem. Thanks!

I was trying to find Ps CS6 upgrade to download but just keep getting referred to cloud
PS ended up in 'Elements discussion board by the look of it - sorry but going round in circles here - I am now officially fed up

I tried some of those links.
If you want to upgrade to Photoshop Extended CS6 in the UK, try this; http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/photoshopextended.html
The crazy thing is that if you just want the standard Photoshop CS6, all the links seem to only lead to Creative Cloud memberships.
Try this link: http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/catalog/software._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_softw are_sl_mostpopular_uk.html
scroll down to Photoshop CS6 and click on the blue "Buy" to the right of the product, After selecting your options, it takes a little while but the upgrade finally shows up in the shopping cart.
Note: All the other links for Photoshop CS6 on that page just go to Creative Cloud only options. They really make if difficult to find anything except the CC.

Hp Warranty Woes & Hard Drive Heartache

HP – Warranties Woes & Hard Drive Headaches.
Dear Internet Community (I.C)
I need your help.
I would like to know if I’m being unreasonable in my expectations or is Hewlett Packard (HP) not living up to its both moral & legal obligations as a good corporate citizen & what it alleges to be – a Customer Focused Global Computer Services company.
Apologies if this is a little long winded but in the interests of fairness I need to put as many HP comments in as possible – to give you a clear picture.
So bear with me, you will not be disappointed & there are a couple of questions you might like to answer & feedback to the appropriate parties.
Keep in mind at all times we are talking about approximately a $200 (NZD) fix – less than the lost profit on one lost sale for an HP PC ( you might think twice about HP products after reading this).
There are two parts to this problem :
Part 1 :
I purchased an HP Touch Smart a few years ago, I registered the product & warranty with them & over the years have received have received numerous emails stating “buy this, upgrade now”.
But I don’t recall ever receiving an “WARNING – Critical Failure Issue (CFI) apply attached patch immediately” email while under warranty. Why is this relevant?
Ø Seagate makes Hard Drives – in this case a Barracuda 7200.11
Ø HP buys said HD’s from Seagate
Ø Seagate finds a problem with firmware in HD’s & advises HP & supplies a fix
Ø HP knows which Customers have these HD’s, because you know what goes into your machines – right ? - see below
Ø HP FAILS to send email to Customers with the fix (a simple email with attachment would solve problem) or issue recall.
Ø HP even offers previously to fix problem FOC & puts fix on its Website - but only if the Customer knows somehow of the problem.
Ø Should the Customer intuitively& telepathically know of problems in HP Products in advance before it fails, because of course HP is not telling their Customers.
Problem or Outcome: My HD has bricked itself & will not operate as I never received notice of the firmware fix at any time either in or out of warranty.
Paul Boshoff - G M -Personal Systems Group- HP NZ (PB- GMPSG) says
“It would be very difficult, if not impossible, for any computer vendor to proactively notify it’s customers of component-level updates”
“Failures of the kind you’ve experienced are usually related to a specific batch of serial numbers and often those component serial numbers aren’t available when the user is registering that particular computer.”
Now let me know if you think I’m wrong, but it sounds like HP does not know what goes into its machines or at the very minimum does not keep track of this.
HP, a Global Computer Services company cannot possibly be expected to track what goes into its machines. HP apparently does not record or match the serial number of the HD with the machine it goes into.
If Ford & Toyota can track & record what tyres go on which make & model of their cars which are in the millions each year & can recall cars dating back 8-10 years just case of a manufacturers component malfunction why can’t HP link & record the HD details.
I can just hear it now “I’m sorry we don’t know which engine we put in your car”.
And let’s be real clear here – we are not talking about some small screw at the back of a PC – Along with the CPU & the RAM, the Hard Drive is pretty much up there in the top 3 of important components of any computer.
I.C – Do you feel
ü That fills you with confidence in HP products & services ?
ü Should HP be required to tell its customer of CFI’s with its products – particularly while under warranty?
ü Has HP tried to limit their liability & cost by directly NOT telling Customers of CFI’s while under warranty?
Part 2 :
When your HD bricks itself – apparently all is not lost – some very clever person has found a solution so you can get the HD going long enough to apply the firmware fix & then your HD is a good as new – Here is the link that spells it out with pics http://www.overclock.net/t/457286/seagate-bricked-firmware-drive-fix-with-pics)
You’ll see the relevance of this shortly.
After much messing about I received the following email from PB- GMPSG : “I have escalated your issue and have just received the go-ahead to repair your unit at our cost. We will be utilizing our own, authorized service provider to re-install the original hard-drive and to run the software fix on that unit.” (This guy most likely earns a six figure salary & isn’t able to sign off $200 fix).
NOTE : it does not limit or restrict what type of fixes will be used & also at this time HP was aware of both the Seagate fix & above fix.
I delivered the PC & bricked HD into the HP Authorised Repair Centre (ARC) as requested –their ticket instructions read “do firmware update…HP to incur costs. NO COST to customer”.
Obviously it’s not rocket science but you need the HD going before you can apply any firmware fix including this one – HP knew that to get the HD going they would need a special fix to enable them to apply the Seagate fix.
After all this is not an isolated case & I did point out to HP that they would need the fix I supplied (or something similar HP approved or designed if that made them more comfortable) prior to their offer of fixing the HD.
HP said their ARC’s had all the right software for fixing their machines. In addition I have been told on several occasions, the ARC’s are the bee’s knees, the cat pajamas, the whiz kids of the PC service world “The first port of call for the repair centre agent is to download all the latest service advisory notices and updates. This is a very fundamental part of the repair process and one that we spend a great deal of time emphasizing with our authorised repair centres” Keep this in mind.
A week later I received a call from Peter Gasporaratos, HP CS Melbourne (poor guy – caught in the middle) & stated “there is nothing else we can do for you”. When I asked if they had applied the fix he said “its not our responsibility.. its not part of our guidelines.. the ARC does not practice unauthorised methods..& this ARC will not go down this path”
Ironically the day before, Barry from the ARC said “we can attempt it, but we will charge you too”. So HP’s own ARC will do it, but there will be a cost – but hang on a minute, didn’t PB- GMPSG say “to repair your unit at our cost. We will be utilizing our own, authorized service provider to re-install the original hard-drive and to run the software fix on that unit” & HP CS put on the instructions “HP to incur costs. NO COST to customer”.
I.C – Do you feel
ü HP have said they will fix it at NO COST to me, regardless of what the fix entails ?
ü Should HP honour this commitment ?
ü Would you do business with a company that says one thing & does another & does not honour its commitment ?
ü That given the bricking fault did not need to happen if HP had been proactive in letting their customers know of the firmware issue & this is not an isolated case– shouldn’t they then be responsible in finding or developing a fix for getting the HD going long enough to apply the firmware fix if they are not going to use other recognised fixes.
Abstract
So that’s it – what do you think I.C. ?
Would you want HP computers & servers controlling the Traffic Lights, Air Traffic Control, Patient records & Medications at Hospitals knowing that HP will not tell these organisations that there is CFI with their products & they could suddenly lose everything. All dead while they try to find a back up computer with all the data – god forbid if President Obama’s “football” is powered by an HP – Nuclear War before we know it.
But seriously – I would love your feedback – Am I being unreasonable in asking them to honour their commitment for a $200 fix ?
And of course HP being a Customer Focused Global Computer Services company, would welcome your feedback.
Here are a couple of the players contact details who would love to hear from you :
ü Keith Watson – CEO –HP NZ -I initially contacted him & he thanked me for bringing it to his attention, then nothing.
Email : [email protected]
ü Paul Boshoff - G M -Personal Systems Group- HP NZ – well of course you now know who he is now – he would love feedback.
Email : [email protected]
ü Jessica Rangi – She’s the Spokes person/PR/Marketing for HP NZ & has just help launch HP new PC range in NZ – She would love your feedback as it might impact on her marketing & she is quoted as having helped out in warranty situations before & has worked at HP head office.
Email : [email protected]
ü Meg Whitman - President and Chief Executive Officer of HP Global
Email : [email protected]
They would all like to hear from you J
I.C
J Thanks for being patience & reading through to the end – now it’s up to you
L buy HP Products & Services or not.
L Do HP deserve your hard earned money if you now believe they aren’t going tell you about problems with their Product & Services.
Be kind to one another & take care.
Regards
Smithie
P.S - I sent this blog to HP for fact & quote checking prior to uploading (I gave them over a week to reply) – the silence was deafening from HP.

When requesting assistance, please provide the complete model name and product number of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq makes thousands of models of computers. Without this information it may be difficult or impossible to assist you in resolving your issue.
The above requested information can be found on the bottom of your computer or inside the battery compartment. Please do not include your serial number. Please enter the model/product information into HP's Online Consumer Support page and post it here for our review.
I doubt the hard drive would be covered by buying an extended warranty after the fact. There is also no reason to buy a new hard drive from HP. Almost any 2.5" hard drive on the market will work in your computer. You will need your personal HP Recovery Disc set to return the computer to a factory like state. If you didn't create these discs, you will need to order a set.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

How to download Adobe Edge Inspect?

It maybe weekend woes, but I find it impossible to download Adobe Edge Inspect. For starters, I would like to test the free version.
This is what I'm doing
1 )install the Edge Inspect Extension on Chrome
2) sign up for Adobe Create Cloud
3) go to apps
x) edge tools & services does not include an icon for Edge Inspect
Following this blog post:
http://blogs.adobe.com/edgeinspect/2012/10/23/how-to-purchase-edge-inspect/
5) Go to plans page to select "getting started"
x) the button is disabled
Trying on the main edge inspect website
http://html.adobe.com/edge/inspect/
6) click on edge inspect
7) click on getting started
x) I'm back in the cloud apps section, without the edge inspect icon
I then downloaded the Adobe Application Manager
x) When running there is also no option to download edge inspector
Can anyone tell me if I'm doing something wrong?

iPod Updater 2006-03-23 has been released
iPod Updater 2006-03-23 includes iPod Software 1.1.1 for the new iPod and new iPod Software 1.1.1 for iPod nano.
iPod Updater 2006-03-23 contains the same software versions as iPod Updater 2006-01-10 for all other iPod models.
What's new in iPod Updater 2006-03-23:
- Volume limit
- Bug fixes
I have been trying to ascertain from Apple Support Level 2 as to whether the latest iPod firmware improves or provides better resolution for the chkdsk issue. If anyone has been using iPod Updater 2006-03-23 to resolve their chkdsk woes, feel free to post in here just to say how things worked out for you...
Kind regards,

Elements 12 crashes in organizer every use. Not unique to 12 an on going problem from 9 forward. This is a new install via download, win7 64 bit.

A long time elements user from the original. Crash problems have escalated since elements 9 to be beyond annoying. Reading Adobes' own forums, it is apparent I am not alone, also apparent Adobe cannot fix the problem. Most disappointing. A new download, from Adobe, crashed on 1st attempted opening of organizer; nor could the organizer see my card reader, once operational. Other programs experience no such problems. This post is more a frustration vent, than an expectation of solution.
Thought I would give Adobe a 2nd effort to rectify/explain. Initiated an on line chat with service rep. Wasted 20 minutes with babble accomplishing nothing. Was transferred to a tech rep. they asked same questions, and while I was typing in details, they severed the connection. I wish anyone considering a purchase of any Elements version the best of luck .Elements woes have for me been spread across 2 new computers and 3 versions of the program. There will not be another.

Hello John
Have you already got some answer from Toshiba?
What to say my friend? In my opinion the best advice you can get from Corel and Adobe. They have best experience with own product and have probably tested them on different hardware platforms.
Notebook manufacturers offer different notebook models with different hardware configurations. Some of them are cheap and offered with average hardware. The performance is not the best but good enough for every day activities like internet, office, mailing and so on.
On other hand there are notebooks with excellent and powerful hardware. Very often such notebooks cost twice as much as cheap low budget products.
Please dont understand me wrong but your C notebook is not the best one for usage with such powerful software.
I really dont know what Toshiba can do about it. I can imagine that you need other graphic driver but graphic driver support for mobile computers is pretty limited and I dont think you can do much about that.
What you can try is to download and install driver from graphic card manufacturer but you must do this on your own risk.
Sorry friend but I dont have any other advice for you. I just think youve bought wrong notebook for such complex graphic operations. 2 GB RAM? I dont know.
Good luck.

HT202159 Mountain Lion download stalling at 53.25mb

I am running an iMac 10,1 with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and purchased Mountain Lion yesterday but the download stalled at 53.25mb. I have sufficient Hard drive space and Wifi signal but it won't go any further. I tried re-lanching the App Store, then re-started my Mac and then finally stopped the download and started again but it got to the same point and stopped.
Any help would be much appreciated as I have exhausted all avenues I can think of.

I'm another who's had the 53.25MB failure issue, and it's 99.9% certain to be a router issue. If you're in the UK then the chances are you're with BT for your broadband. As mentioned above, there is a known issue with the 2Wire BT Business Hub, see link below, and probably other routers too.
http://btbroadbandandhowtosurviveit.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/bts-2-wire-woes.html
"If you want Mountain Lion, or any other large download, then you'll need to get another router, or firmware upgrade if available." That however can be a pain, and if BT don't play ball then an expensive one. There is another solution however, and one that means no contact with BT, call centres or your local PC World ...
What I did was put in an old BTHomeHub that I had lying around to get it passed the 53.25MB point, and then paused the download while I reinstalled the 2Wire BT Business Hub. I then resumed the download and the whole 4+GB was on my iMac in a few minutes (well just over the hour). If you don't have a spare router, borrow one, you'll only need it to get the download passed the 53.25MB stage. For completeness, I waited until it was at about 150MB before pausing.
Hope that helps some.
