How To Download a File into your desktop application
Hello,
I am attempting to have an AIR application use a webservice XMLCollection when online, but what I would like to do is also provide an AIR application for download. I think that the AIR application is using the files installed locally, what I would like to do is have the AIR application check to see if it is online and then download a file (and store it for later offline use) if it is to get the latest information?
Anyone have an example of how to do this? I just can't wrap my head around it.
You aren't the first person to ask that question. Here's a great blog post with a simple example to get you going.

How to download mp3 files into iTunes
This question differs from, but is related to subscribing to podcasts (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2124335&tstart).
Rather than subscribing to a podcast, I just want to download a story http://transmissionsfrombeyond.com/podpresstrac/web/121/0/TFB_020TheWatersOfMeribah.mp3, hosted at http://transmissionsfrombeyond.com/2009/08/transmission20. I did File->AddFileToLibrary. The dialogue box that came up was pointing at a temporary internet file folder. For the file name, I provided the URL above, but all that happened was that it downloaded 2 files into the temporary internet file folder:
TFB020TheWatersOfMeribah[1].mp3
TFB020TheWatersOfMeribah[2].mp3
Why are there 2 parts?
I tried to drag them to the iTunes Podcasts area, then try to drag it to the Podcast entry in the navigation panel along the left. Neither action resulted in the appearance of the files in iTunes.
I tried to find where iTunes stores its files. It seems to be at "My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music", though the folder structure in no way mirrors the 6 iTunes libraries (Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Applications, Radio). Previously suscribed podcasts had corresponding folders in the Podcasts subfolder, but there were no subfolders for the other five libraries.
I dragged the two mp3's into the Podcasts subfolder, but it didn't show up in iTunes. I then emulated the previously subscribed podcasts by creating a TheWatersOfMeribah folder within the Podcasts subfolder, then dragged the mp3's into that folder. Again, no joy.
Surely, I doing something very wrong. What is the way to download mp3's into one's iPod Touch?Apple rejects my alias wrote:
That's the thing, it's not a subscription podcast. It's just an mp3 file. Entering a URL as worked for subscription podcasts, but hasn't worked for the URL of the mp3 file.
No, it won't!
I've checked the links you provided and the problem is - they are not Podcasts (as you noted), despite what the text on the page says. In order to get these programmes into the Podcast section of iTunes, they must be downloaded _as Podcasts._ So why not get the Podcast?
First, let's get the Podcast, then I'll explain what the problem has been.
To actually get the Podcast; on the pages you linked, look for and click on the *iTunes/1 click* button, just above the donate button. You may get a dialogue box appear that says "This link needs to open an application. Send to:" and one of the choices should be iTunes - choose it. That step may be skipped and you may go straight to iTunes.
When iTunes does open, it should go to the *iTunes Store/Podcasts/.../Transmissions From Beyond* page, where you can select individual episodes or subscribe to the complete series. Make your choice. The advantage of subscribing is that iTunes will then do all the work of finding new episodes, downloading them and syncing them to your iPod.
An alternative is to search in the iTunes Store for "Transmissions From Beyond" which will find the Podcast. I've just done this, so I know it works!
Now, what was the problem?
On the pages you linked to, the authors keep referring to everything as a Podcast, but an mp3 file _is only a Podcast_ if it's downloaded through a "Podcast catcher", such as iTunes. This whole process then keeps track of new episodes and can also automate the removal of an episode that you have listened to if you wish. (See the options in the Podcast tab of your iPod when you connect it to iTunes.)
If you download the mp3 files as you did, they are simply mp3 files, which will end up in the music section of your library, perhaps with a genre of Podcast. (To be a Podcast, the file needs to have a *Media Kind* of Podcast, not the genre. A Podcast can have any genre, speech, music, drama etc.)
As you have seen, even the content providers are mis-informed about what a Podcast is.
By the way, when you tried "entering the URL" - iTunes will only recognise valid *Podcast Feed URLs,* but not the location of an mp3 file. The enter URL option is useful if you have the *Podcast Feed* of a Podcast that is not listed in the iTunes Store.
Finally, in fact you have downloaded the mp3 file _three times._
The first time as TFB020TheWatersOfMeribah.mp3,
the second time as TFB020TheWatersOfMeribah[1].mp3,
and a third time as TFB020TheWatersOfMeribah[2].mp3

When I download firefox from the official mozilla site on my imac it is downloading its files to my desktop, covering my desktop in junk and I can't get rid of it as it is part of the browser. Why is it doing this? Why isn't it downloading to the right place?
Usually the icon on a file will provide indication of hte application used to open it. Highlight the file in Finder and Get Info on it. It should say what is used to open it.
iTunes will not play all file formats. Even some formats such as mp3 which it should in theory play it will not play all versions of the format. Those mp3s may play okay in Quicktime but the file has some small aspect to it which iTunes will not recognize. -

Trying to download image files into lightrrom 5 on an imac running 10.8.5. Works fine with camera roll section but Icloud section does not appear as source in lightroom. How to access?
You need to sync them in iTunes and download them there, then simply open them from the folder where they are stored in other programs.

How do you sync music into your library from another file
how do you sync music into your library from another file? After moving all my music into a new location, is there a quicker way to upload the music into the library rather than adding file by file?
Hi MonicaJani,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. You can also add folders of media as described here:
Adding music and other content to iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
Adding content on your computer to iTunes
iTunes helps you add digital audio and video files on your computer directly to your iTunes library. You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats. You can also add video content in QuickTime or MPEG-4 format to iTunes. To learn how to add these files to iTunes follow the steps below.
Open iTunes
From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
MacAdd to Library
Windows
Add File to Library
Add Folder to Library
Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add
If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
Cheers,

How do I bundle files into one folder on my mac OS X version 10.6.8? I don't have an icon for Launchpad on my desktop.
Put the files you want on the first page into the folder, and then use subfolders for the subsequent pages. If the process you saw involved Launchpad on a newer OS, it can’t be done on 10.6.8.

iCloud does not provide general file storage, nor a Public Folder, in the manner of the MobileMe iDisk. You will need to find a third-party alternative - this page examines some options:

HOw to download a file in background without user intervention?
Hello people,
A few hours ago I asked a couple of guys how to download a file to html. For that I am most thankful, and as mentioned this is a two part question, my other question is about how to proccess downloading the html in background and to automatically send it to a folder or other path. Without any user intervention.
Example, I run a long report to be downloaded in background. The lets say the next day, I can get the file in a folder. Thanks guys take care!Hello guys thanks for your help so far. I have been off again on again with this task because its more for future purposes than anything.
So far I have searched the net and stuff and decided that I will use WWW_LIST_TO_HTML since I want to download it the way it is. I am also going to use open/close dataset as many of you have mentioned.
SO far Im just trying it out with a simple report program to see its funcitonalities. My code goes like this.
<b>REPORT ZCCYT_COOL2 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING LINE-COUNT 100 .

NOw the problem now though is that the file isnt downloading or saving at all. I cant seem to get what is wrong since the path does exist and the this seems the universal way to implement the program. Im guessing the problem lies in the file name, because everything seems to work fine. Hope to hear again soon sorry for not visiting this place sooner cuz I was buzy elsewhere. -
How to download a file version from office 365 using csom
I need to download an older file version from office 365 and get the data into a byte array. I have no trouble downloading the latest version with File.OpenBinaryStream() and I have no trouble loading the previous file versions with File.Versions. But now
I need to actually download an older version of the file and it seems the only way is to use File.OpenBinaryDirect. So I am creating a client context using my oAuth access token and providing the correct path, but I am getting a (401) Unauthorized
error. Looking with Fiddler I can see that the call to OpenBinaryDirect is somehow trying to post to my file URL and the server is responding with 401.
context = TokenHelper.GetClientContextWithAccessToken(SPHostUrl, AccessToken);
FileInformation info = File.OpenBinaryDirect(context, "/" + _fileVersion.Url); //throws 401
//leading slash required otherwise ArgumentOutOfRangeException
I have to be able to access the older file versions with my c# code -- I don't have a viable app without that ability -- any help urgently needed and greatly appreciated!Thank you SO much (Can't wait for the next release)!
For anyone else who lands here, here's the code I ended up using:
// VersionAccessUser and VersionAccessPassword are stored in web.config
// web.Url is loaded via the clientContext
// myVersion is the FileVersion I got from the file's Versions.GetById() method
// probably a lot of ways to get hostUrl, it just needs to be https://yourdomain.sharepoint.com/
// - I'm running my app from a subweb
// I had trouble following the links to get the full MsOnlineClaimsHelper code
// (the one on msdn.com was missing RequestBodyWriter, WSTrustFeb2005ContractClient,
// and IWSTrustFeb2005Contract
// so I've included the code I used here.
string myVersionFullUrl = string.Format("{0}/{1}", web.Url, myVersion.Url);
string userName = WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("VersionAccessUser");
string strPassword = WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("VersionAccessPassword");
string hostUrl = Regex.Replace(web.Url, "([^/]+//[^/]+/).*", "$1");
MsOnlineClaimsHelper claimsHelper = new MsOnlineClaimsHelper(hostUrl, userName, strPassword);
var client = new WebClient();
client.Headers["Accept"] = "/";
client.Headers.Add(HttpRequestHeader.UserAgent, "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.0.3705;)");
client.Headers.Add(HttpRequestHeader.Cookie, claimsHelper.CookieContainer.GetCookieHeader(new Uri(hostUrl)));
var document = client.DownloadString(myVersionFullUrl);

How to download a file from database
Hi,
My flex application contains a form that uploads a file into the server. This file is however saved in the database, and not on the disk. Most of the tutorials in the database explains how to download a file by passing the file's url to the "download" function of the fileReference Object. That dsnt work for me as my file is saved in the database.
How do I download this file from the server ?
For example, in php, we would do smthing like this :
$content = $file_to_download['content'];
$size = $file_to_download['content_size'];
$type = $file_to_download['content_type'];
$name = $file_to_download['filename'];
header("Content-type:$type");
header("Content-length:$size");
header("Content-Disposition:attachment;filename=$name");
header("Content-Description:PHP Generated Data");
echo $content;
When executing this file, it opens up the "download file" dialog box. How do i get the same effect in flex 4 ?You need the bytes use FileReference.download() and after download you can save
it on disk with FileReference.save(); You also need FP 10 at least I think. Use
the docs they are less error pron than mi memory :).

How to download a file from Path specifed
Hi Frndz..
How to download a file from a specified path like , i have a file on server in the path like "C://temp/Sap.pdf"
I want to download this to user desktop..
Thanks in Advance
regards
RajeshHi,
For file down load u have to use a UI element as "File download".
u just create context attribute as setdownload_res and file data.
setdownload_res as of type "com.sap.ide.webdynpro.uielementdefinitions.Resource" then bound it to the ui element "resource".
file data as of type "com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDInputStream"
and set calcuclated as true and read only as true.
then in doinit method u just write this code
IWDAttributePointer attr = wdContext.currentContextElement().getAttributePointer("fileData");
IWDResource res = WDResourceFactory.createResource(attr,null,WDWebResourceType.UNKNOWN);
wdContext.currentContextElement().setDownload_res(res);
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess(""+c);
after this in the getter method u write this code
IWDInputStream stream = null;
try
stream = WDResourceFactory.createInputStream(new FileInputStream(new File("<pathof the file to be download>")));
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
return stream;
also look at this thread How to DownLoad any type of File from the server(PDF,XLS,Word)
