How to cancel downloads

I would prefer not to receive the HD versions of tv downloads.  They take up way too much space on my drive.  Is there any way to prevent the initial download?  I am currently coping by simply deleting the files once downloaded.

"I would prefer not to receive the HD versions of tv downloads."
Then  don't purchase them.  Just buy the SD version.
You cannot delete waiting downloads.  You would have to let them download then delete them.

  • How to cancel downloading process in JAVA ftp?

    I tried to write a java ftp client to transfer files within our network. One of very usefully function I want to add is to cancel the transfer while files
    are downloading or uploading. I can do this on file uploading by closing "ftpclient.put(filename) methods at anytime, but have trouble on closing "ftpClient.get(remoteFilename)". When I tried to close it by using "in.close()", the program stucked. I even tried to kill the thread, but no luck. Can any one give me a hint? Here is the code:
    protected void downloadfile ()
    byte [] buffer = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];
    try{
    FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(Localfilename);
    InputStream in = ftpClient.get(remoteFilename); //downloading
    // Write to local file
    while (true && !cancelORnot)
    // write to file
    } catch ( Exception ex) { }
    finally
    try {
    if (out ! = null)
    out.close(); // this can be closed at any time
    if (in != null)
    in.close(); // This one stucked if it is in the middle
    // of downloading and can not disconnect to the
    // ftp server
    catch ( IOException ex)
    }

    How does the ftpClient.get("fileName") work? Also, are you running everything in the EventDispatchThread? If your running everything in the EventDispatchThread then ftpClient.get() will need to finish before an event can be handled.
    If thats the case, you could use a SwingWorker to do the downloading so that the Event Thread is available to handle the cancel event.

    Thanks!

    Thank you for replying. I am sorry I forgot including FTP API
    information.The FTP API I used is from SUN, JDK, sun.net.ftp.FtpClient. The method is " InputStream in = ftpClient.get(remoteFilename)"and "in.close()" should close downloading. while it is still downloading, in.close() will not work and hang my program on forever. I am just wondering if there is trick to close downloading whenever I want especially in case that network connection is too slow and I want to cancel the job.

  • How To Cancel Download of Podcast

    I recently tried downloading previous episodes of a Fringe Podcast through Itunes on my computer unsuccessfully so I then tried to do the downloads on my Iphone through Itunes. Again it was unsuccessful this time because the files were too big if I remember correctly..........anyways heres my problem......when I go to the download screen on my Iphone the 3 Fringe Podcats still remain there, 2 are stuck on processing and the other says waiting. I want to remove them all from that download screen but do not know how. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try resetting the iPad and see if the podcasts will finish downloading, then delete them if you don't want them.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • 12 day Christmas Free downloads: How to cancel download ?

    Hi,
    have agreed to download the TV-Package. It appears that the three
    TV sessions are more than 200 MB each.
    Now I would like to stop the download and cancel it completely.
    "Side-Slide" does not work. I can stop the download but can not cancel/delete it.
    Any advice ?

    Thanks,
    after restarting iTunes I had the 3 files in the "Download" area. Deleted files in iTunes.
    But they are still on the iPad, waiting for the download. After next sync, they are back in the download area of iTunes again. Ready to be deleted
    btw. it is not that I complain about the free files: It just takes my download bandwith for a day......

  • Whenever Firefox28 is started all youtube downloads also start. How to cancel them?

    These downloads were started with the help of an add-on 'download helper'. Disabling this add-on does not help. Start Firefox. Downloads start!

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
    *Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
