My download progress will not move.

I got the free upgrade for my MacBook Pro yesterday and I started the download of Lion...
I left it to download while I went out to eat and did some stuff in town and when I got back (6 hours later) it was still in the same position. (1.13GB)
So, I paused it and resumed it and it downloaded .05GB with "58min remaining" and then the time skyrocketed up to "11 days" then quickly went to "a few minutes remaining." It does that every time I pause and resume: only downloads a few MBs and then sticks.
It's been over 24 hours and still nothing.
I have a 10MB broadband connection and I even tried ethernet.
I know everyone and their brother is downloading it, but other people have gotten it, it's just taking them a long time. For me it's not going anywhere.

Thank you guys, hopefully this isn't going to be something i have to do on a regular basis. Another question, when i shake my phone close to my ear i can hear a slight rattle inside my phone. I don't recall hearing it when i first got it but then again i never tried to listen. Is it the Accelerometers inside my phone? Is it normal to hear it? It's not a crazy rattle but you can clearly hear something inside moving around. Is this something i should be worried about? My phone works fine except for the battery icon thing but i'm still worried by the noise. I have the apple protection plan...

Downloaded files will not move or allow to be edited?

Hi, I hope this is the correct place to ask this question.
I currently have two hard drives, a HDD and SSD with HDD as the windows install/main drive.
When I download files from google chrome, they go straight into my SSD in a 'downloads' folder.
A few days ago it wouldn't let me access this folder, just took forever to load and never actually opened. I eventually did some googling and found out It was optimized for photos. I changed this to general files and now I can access it again. However when
I download files to this location some become unmoveable so to speak. I download a lot of music to this folder and whenever I try to move some files, even just an individual file, it regularly comes up with "discovering items".
Now for the files that do move, windows won't allow me to edit them (ie: Artist/Title/Tags, etc)
The only way i've got around this is by copying the files, pasting them all to have (1) at the end and then moving them files. It will still, however, not let me delete the original files. I can open them, listen to the mp3 tracks, but not move them or delete
them.
Can anyone help? Would be much appreciated.
Thanks :)

Hi Steven,
Have you tried to put another file manually into this folder to check if this file could edit it?
Please check if you have sufficient permission for this folder.
The details, please refer to this guide:
Set, View, Change, or Remove Permissions on Files and Folders

In addition, you could change the download location as the chrome official guide:

HT204406 I attempted to download iTunes match w/o success. Step 1 was fine. Step 2 gets stalled and will not move beyond 80%... Any suggestions for a solution? Why is iTunes stalling on step 2?

Hi folks,
I found a solution in case your MATCH is still buggy...
JUST BOOT YOUR MAC HOLDING THE SHIFT KEY (until you see a progress bar).
Then in itunes disable and re-enable iTunes Match.
It should rescan all your library and eventually works.
At the end just reboot your Mac normally.
Best regards from Paris.

Thanks for the pointers folks. Yeah, 1.5GB is pretty poor isn't it? There are other suppliers, but you have to get a their phone line installed to access the internet so it's an £85 setup fee plus a day off work for a guy to come round and drill a hole in your wall before you even get to the monthly costs.
Don't get me wrong though - I'm certainly not an Apple basher, but am equally frustrated with both them and the ISP.
Virgin Media spend all kinds of money advertising their broadband as the fastest in the UK, but don't tell you (up front anyway) that you'll be cut off if you actually try and use it.
Apple on the other hand carry on with their 'it just works' mantra, but with Apple TV this only applies if you meet certain criteria (again, not mentioned up front).
I guess it aint a biggie, as i was gifted my Apple TV, and love all the other stuff it does, but from the number of posts on this forum can see that there's a lot of angry customers out there who want explanations as to why they're having similar problems to me.
Will be very interesting to see if Apple release any kind of software update that turns the flash drive from a buffer to permanent storage, to at least ease some of the pain...

Thanks rhoydotp,
The download was actually the successful part! I had no issues with it timing out or anything. My problem was the actual install, after the download was complete. The installer just stopped about a quarter of the way up on "Alternative Kits" and never made it to any of the other kits. I think I'll try installing them one at a time like you said, and see what happens. Hopefully it works!

Just downloaded Lion 10.7.5 and it has stopped Minecraft working correctly. Screen jumps like an earthquake and character will not move. Any ideas? Thanks, John

Just updated OS X to latest 10.7.5 and I am using Minecraft 1.3.2.
After loading software Minecraft screen is like being in an earthquake jittering up and down while the character will not move out of its existing square. I can use tools but not move.
Anyone any similar experience or solution?
Thanks

Thanks Tom. Whilst their site did not resolve the issue you did make me think about creating a New World in Minecraft. This created fine and does not exhibit the problems. I guess the last game is just corrupt and not an OS X issue and is just a coincidence.
Thanks
John

Every time I try to close iMovie 10 it says "tasks that are currently in progress will not be completed"?

I upgraded to Mavericks and then updated iMovie to the latest version (10?). I opted to let it upgrade my projects and events and these are now available in the new iMovie, but every time I try to shut it down, I get a dialogue box saying "tasks currently in progress will not be completed", what tasks? What is it doing- does anyone know?
Also is it true that after letting it upgrade/update your events and projects, you can delete the old iMovie projects and events folders (to save space)?

I have the same question regarrding tasks in progress. The program seems very sluggish compared to the previous version.
Where is the old iMovie projects and events folder located (folder name)? I would like to save space also or at least move to an external drive and have them as a backup if needed.

Downloaded music will not sync to iphone

I downloaded an album to my itunes library..it shows up on my computer but will not sync to my phone...I've uploaded the newest version of itunes, deleted and re-added the cd to the library...hit sync several times and this particular album will not move over to my phone...

Hey kristruss!
I have a couple of suggestions for you to attempt to get this album onto your iOS device. First, try to sync the album by manual syncing instead of automatic syncing:

In Thunderbird while trying to move conversation results to an archive folder; if some of the results are already in the folder it will not move any.

Hi. I often use the conversation search option when archiving my emails from inbox. I find this a very useful method of finding trails where I and multiple people have responded to each other. However If I have already moved one or more of these emails into the archive folder and select all to move, Thunderbird will not move any. I then need to individually select those that need to be moved.
Although not a major issue I use this regularly and often come across the problem. a recent fix which allows location tab to remain on in search helps but does not resolve this issue. A slightly annoying problem and I was wondering if any one else has this issue. Also is anyone looking into a solution?

FCPx answer: At least the answer that worked for me...
I had the same problem, as I believe many others had.
In my case the problem was with one of OSX Mavericks' new features: APP NAP.
It looks like this is ON by DEFAULT for ALL Applications and that FCPx, or Compressor for that matter, will not work if this is enabled on them.
I just disabled App Napp on FCPx and now it works, again, like a charm.
This is how you disable App Nap: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57612009-263/how-to-disable-app-nap-in-os-x -mavericks/

Adobe download assistant will not work on my machine?

Adobe download assistant will not work on my machine. When i try to start it i get a message saying "Sorry an error has occurred. This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance." Any ideas what to do

Are you using Mac OS? If so please try removing the Adobe Download Assistant from your Applications folder and try again. This issue is documented in the Known Issues section of Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html.

Adobe Download Assistant Will Not Recognize My Adobe ID

I've been an Adobe customer / forum user since before ID's were tied to email addresses. My product registrations going back to 1996 through CS 5.5 apps are recorded under that ID. Since I have to change my email address every couple years to escape spammers, I do not want to change my Adobe ID (and go through the hassle of re-recording the record of registered apps) to a "fluid" ID like an email address.
Automatic registration and now Adobe Download Assistant will not accept an Adobe ID that is not an email address, yet I can still use it to 'manually' register new / upgrade product purchases. The problems this poses are two-fold:
Since I can only manually register new / upgrade products, I cannot obtain any "registration bonus" downloads.
I cannot download trial versions of apps I want to check out.
Adobe needs to get its act together and tell its gen-X / Millenials / Kid Web and software development staff that not all Adobe IDs are email addresses, but might also be a unique user ID string.
Further, due to an individual's email address volatitility (virtually everyone in my email address book had their email address change every 2- 3 years due to ISP demise, merger, personal relocation, job change etc.), Adobe should return to - or at least give precedence to - the model of UID / PW authentication instead of email address / PW authentication. This would lower Adobe maintenance effort / cost for user accounts as one could simply sign in with UID + PW and change email address for the account as necessary. As it is now, Adobe CANNOT deal with a user whose email address changes.
When Adobe changed from UID precedence to email precedence, I could not register Acrobat Pro (2007) during registration so I used my email address at that time to register the product. When that email address ceased to exist, I tried to get Adobe to transfer that registration to my old [non-email address] Adobe ID, and, over several months of email exchanges, they ended up admitting they could not do it. I could not make the change as the SN was already marked as used in there system so simply re-registering it to my existing account wouldn't work either.
This has been an ongoing issue with "legacy" users since 2006 at least, and NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED ASAP!!!!

There you go MISSING THE POINT AGAIN!! My Registered products WILL NOT FOLLOW MY UID IF I CHANGE IT, NEVER DID SINCE 2007. Saying the will is false information which I alerted Adobe to back in 2007 and is a problem y'all never fixed.
Just a little over a week ago, I got I got LightRoom 4 ug from a LR 3 I had purchased in March. Signing on with my legacy UID (non-email) allowed me ADD those registrations to my account, as I had cor CS 5.5, 4, 3, etc. etc. Now, isn't it odd that the very day after I posted here, when I sign in to my account it shows NO REGISTERED PRODUCTS!!! If I look at my order history, it has orders from Adobe store from last weeks CS6 MC purchase back to 2007 when I started buying from Adobe directly after the local brick and mortar resellers disappeared.
So I try to register CS6 MC, it tells me the SN is already in use. I try open a PDF document and it tells me I have to first register and agree to the Acrobat Pro X license before I open a doc - and it was an UPGRADE FROM CS 5.5 MC. I try to run CS 5.5 apps and they tell me I have to purchase a license since the trial period is over - HUH! Until I posted here it was working FINE. I go back to my acccount (non-email UID sign in) and check my profile - Lo and behold SOMEONE (not me) has changed the UID to an email address instead of the non-email UID I sign in with AND DELETED ALL MY PRODUCT REGISTRATIONS!
Naturally, your software does not let me put it back to the same UID I use to sign on with so THE LINK TO ALL MY REGISTERED PRODUCTS IS GONE, I CANNOT REGISTER NEW ONES (which was no problem just a day or two before posting here) WHICH PROVES WHAT I WAS TOLD IN 2007 - WHEN YOU CHANGE UID'S YOUR LEGACY REGISTRATIONS WILL BE LOST!!!
So, in summary you (Adobe at least, and I suspect you personally) went in and messed with my legacy account, deleting all my registrations, as I was told in 2007 would happen and advised to keep the old UID if I did not want to blow away those registrations, when I explicity did NOT want to make such changes. And, should I need an SN for some upgrade offer or to install an update for an older product that I did not transition to the new facility, I have to HOPE that I had I can find the original purchase invoice and that there is a copy of the SN / Reg card attached to it.
THANKS A PANT LOAD!!

HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw makes horrible noise and will not move past initializing

Makes horrible noise and will not move past initializing.

Hi @HealthITLadyRed,
I read your post and see that the printer is making noise and is stuck initializing. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
I have provided some steps to try to see if we can resolve this issue.
Check and remove any packaging material inside the printer and toner.
Disconnect the USB/Network/FAX and power the printer on Standalone.
Do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
If the issue persists, perform a power drain by disconnecting the power cord from the back of the printer and keeping the power button pressed for 30 seconds and in case of a power switch keep the switch in ON position for 30 seconds before reconnecting the power chord.
Update the printer's firmware by a USB connection. Software and Drivers.
Select Option 2 and wait for the page to load and then select the link for firmware. This resolved the previous posters issue.
I can send a private message with another step to try.
In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it.
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
What happened prior to this issue? (paper jam, changed toner) Any feedback would be appreciated.
Is this a new printer?
If you appreciate my efforts, please click the Thumbs up button below.
If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know. Thank You.

My ipad2 will not connect to my wifi and now i have a download that will not close or allow me to use other apps or shut the ipad off what can I do?

I bought the ipad 2 about a month ago now and have tried to connect my wifi and it says I cannot join my wifi. Now I have two pop ups for downloads that will not allow me to open apps or shut the ipad off. What should I do?

Hi,
For all people struggling with connecting their iPad to their router, constantly getting 'Incorrect Password' even though you have entered the correct one - this may be your solution as it just resolved my issue.
In your router settings online (usually found at 198.168.1.1) change your security from WPA2 or WEP to WPA. For my iPad it for some reason only accepts WPA but now it is running without problems. Let me know if this helps.
Cheers.

My download progress will not move.
