My 'downloads' box isn't deleting a particular file.

My 'downloads' box doesn't seem to clear a particular file. All other files seem to delete but this particular file doesn't go. I tried deleting the temp file, resetting the computer, disk clean up etc but to no avail. When I open up the 'downloads' box, the file is there and it says 'paused' but it doesn't resume either when i try and when I right-click on it, the only option I get is 'cancel' (which doesn't seem to work), 'go to download page', 'copy download link', and 'select all'. Even when I select the file, the 'clear list' button is inactive. Please help!!!

Hello Randy.
That is very weird... You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • Finder doesn't allow me to delete 2 particular files

    Sometime ago I backed up the contents of an old iBook to my NAS. I have since transferred those files to my new iMac.
    The problem: when I try to delete two of those files/folders from the NAS, this happens:
    FOLDER 1:
    Finder asks for my admin credentials and spits the following error:
    But as you can see bellow the folder isn't locked and the Sharing and Permissions state that I can only read:
    FOLDER 2:
    In this case Finder does one of two things: either deletes it and the file comes back the next second OR spits the following error:
    So, how can I delete these files/folders?

    I managed to get rid of them by turning off the "Achive option" in the NAS.

  • I can dowload but than I can't get in. My download box is empty

    When I download anything I can't open it. My download box is empty. It saves files but I can't find them

    Hi Mike,
    Smart Folders aren't really folders at all, but really just pointers to Mails that meet certain criteria, if they're empty now there's a setting elsewhere that is likely deleting or removing those Mail after a certain time.
    Right click or Control+click on one of those Smart boxes & choose Edit Smart Mailbox, check the criteria out, it may contain something Like If... Last viewed was 30 days or less, in which case they would disappear after not being viewed for 30 days even though you did nothing, the eMails would still be where they were originally though.

  • Unicode filename in download box

    I need to upload/download files with Unicode names from a file hosting service. Every thing is going fine except one thing - internet explorer.
    The problem is that IE doesn't recognize the file name i'm sending as Unicode - showing me an encoded string instead in the download box. The page displays the file name okay however the download box doesn't. The problem happens only if the unicode file name has no extension. With an ascii extension, the file displays fine. With a unicode extension, the name part appears correct but then the extension itself is garbled. Firefox works like a charm.
    What I'm basically doing, is that I check for the browser. If IE, I encode the filename and set the content-disposition header and stuff. If firefox, do it the firefox way (mark the filename field in the content-disposition with a * just before the equal sign). I then send the file data into a servlet output stream.
    As a temporary solution, I'm appending a .NoExtension extension to extention-less filenames. This has to do for now, unless any body here has a better idea...
    please? : ]

  • File Download box appears despite content being text/html .....

    Hi
    I am supporting a set of web pages which display data to the user based on XML transformed by a set of style sheets. Currently when the user does something and fires the doPost method we get the "File Download" box appear with the message "Some files can harm your computer .................... ". The downloaded file is just the HTML used to display info to the user (with the appropriate embedded stuff from the stylesheet)
    I was under the impression that this dialogue box only appears when the content type is not understood by the browser. However, the content type is text/html ... so i am a bit stumped.
    can anyone suggest other ways in which this message can appear?
    cheers
    chris

    Just on the off chance anyone else ever has this problem and fins this post ( the problem was solved a long time and i forgot to update the post).
    The application in question attempts to log into a database via OC4J. The connection information in the data-sources.xml file was incorrect (specifically the database listener port). This was generating some bizarre exception which was propogated up and resulted in the above behaviour. I suspect that you could get the same effect thogh for many other reasons, so if you are having this problem i wouldnt get too hung up on this as a possible cause,.

  • Delete an uploaded file (in custom table) from a report

    Hi,
    I have a report of uploaded files (the files are saved in my own table, not in APEX_APPLICATION_FILES) - I'd like to add a delete link to each file in my report so that the user can delete a particular file.
    How do I go about doing this?
    Thanks.

    Melissa,
    It is now working. You missed couple of things:
    1. javascript in the header
    2. you were pointing to the page 1 and your process was on the page 2
    3. you passed the value to a non existing item on the page 3
    4. the request which would fire the delete process was triggered by a wrong request

  • Deleted or corrupted file

    Every time I try to sync my ipod it tells me that it cannot install a song that has been on my ipod for weeks. when I try to re-import the song it tells me it cannot because the file or directory is corrupted. when i try to delete the song out of my itunes folder so i can reinstall it, it tells me it cannot be deleted because the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable. How in the world do I fix this!?????? It is one of my favorite songs!

    Since writing my original post I decided to send the following message to Mac App Store Customer Support:
    "I have had to download this file from the app store at least ten (10) times. I try to install the file but I keep getting the message "The software could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading."
    I then delete the same file and try another attempt at a different time of day. Most recently following Apple Support's advice I contacted my ISP to clear the file cache but they could only clear my browser cache. I have deleted my com.apple.appstore. folder which contains app store cache,  also com.apple.appstore.plist and tried again to no avail. I have wasted hours doing all this and I now want my money back please. You can keep this software update until you release it on disk like Snow Leopard which installed like a dream. I'm very disappointed with Apple that they expect the purchaser to do all the work trying to diagnose their software installation issue. Nice idea but poorly executed has been my experience."
    I received this message which has confirmed my refund request:
    Julia here from the iTunes Store. I understand that you received an error message and have been unable to install OS X Lion. I know how eager you must be to have this resolved, and I will be happy to help in any way that I can.
    Please accept my sincere apologies for the frustration this download has caused. Since you were unable to enjoy this purchase, I have gone ahead and issued a refund. In five to seven business days, a credit of £20.99 should be posted to the credit card that appears on the receipt for that purchase.
    If you have any other questions or concerns regarding this issue, please reply so I can assist you further. Thank you for being an iTunes Store customer.
    Sincerely,
    Julia

    Perhaps I'll wait for a disk to become available or see if a download to a pen drive at an Apple store is possible.

  • TS4357 i just bought an album off of itunes and it says processing 100% in the downloading box but a few of the songs still are not downloaded what do i do?

    I bought a lot of songs off of itunes today and it is not downloading to my library what do i do?

    I need help i dont know what to do

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • How to delete a particular row in ALV table

    Hi,
    How to delete a particular row in ALV table based on some condition(by checking value for one of the columns in a row)
    Thanks
    Bala Duvvuri

    Hello Bala,
    Can you please be a bit more clear as to how you intend to delete the rows from your ALV? By the way deleting rows from an ALV is no different from deleting rows from a normal table. Suppose you have enabled selection property in ALV & then select multiple rows and click up on a button to delete the rows then below would be the coding: (Also keep in mind that you would have to maintain the Selection property of the context node that you are binding to your ALV to 0..n)
    data : lr_table_settings  TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_table_settings,
                 lr_config          TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_config_table.
      lr_table_settings  ?= lr_config.
    ** Setting the ALV selection to multiple selection with no lead selection
      lr_table_settings->set_selection_mode( value = cl_wd_table=>e_selection_mode-multi_no_lead ).
    Next delete the selected rows in the action triggered by the button:
    METHOD onactiondelete_rows .
      DATA:  wd_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
             lt_node1 TYPE ig_componentcontroller=>elements_node,
             wa_temp  TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
             lt_temp  TYPE wdr_context_element_set,
             row_number TYPE i VALUE 0.
      wd_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'NODE' ).
      CALL METHOD wd_node->get_selected_elements
        RECEIVING
          set = lt_temp.
      LOOP AT lt_temp INTO wa_temp.
        wd_node->remove_element( EXPORTING element = wa_temp ).
      ENDLOOP.
      CALL METHOD wd_node->get_static_attributes_table
        EXPORTING
          from  = 1
          to    = 2147483647
        IMPORTING
          table = lt_node1.
      wd_node->bind_table( new_items = lt_node1 ).
    ENDMETHOD.
    If in case this isn't your requirement please do let me know so that I can try come up with another analysis.
    Regards,
    Uday

  • I downloaded a program and it never shiowed up in the download box. I can't find it anywhere on my computer. I tried it a few different times and from different sites but still nothing. What can I try next?

    I downloaded a program several times and from different download sites. It never showed up in the download box but it said all downloads have completed. I searched for it anywhere on my computer but the search produced no results.

    I suppose there is a possibility that you have security software than may be blocking quarantining or even deleting the downloaded file.
    Normally if Firefox says in the download manager that the file is downloaded then it is on your computer, and if you right click you should get the option to open the folder the er the downloaded file is in.
    #Use keyboard keys '''Ctrl + J''' to open Firefox's download manager
    #* or use ( press''' alt''' to display the menubar) Tools -> Downloads
    # in the downloads window find the file entry you are looking for and right click
    # use the option ''open containing folder''
    * see [[downloads window]] <-- clickable link --
    * and [[unable to download or save files]]
    Please post back with how you get on.

  • Can we able to delete the particular request

    HI,
    We have code for to deleting all request from Database.
    Can we able to delete the particular request from the Database.
    For example, I have request start from 100 to 150.
    If i want to delete the request : 125, is any way we can pull all requests in the dropdown and delete the particular request.
    Pls any one give a suggestion, how can we archive this?
    Regards,
    Anandh P

    Hi Anandh,
    Kevin is right you can use the workspace and use a grab (and then abort) to "delete" the instance.
    It will no longer be running and will be viewed as aborted.
    You can create a custom UI by using the PAPI or PAPI-WS depending on you preferences.
    However if I'm not mistaken there is a third option that is the deletion of instances from the database.
    I believe there is a PL/SQL procedure that can be run to delete all instances from the database. However this isn't limited to a single instances..
    ---( Can someone confirm this.. I'm not sure if this is for BPM or just for SOA Suite?) ---
    Hope this helps.
    Kind Regards,
    Nils

  • After im asked to download download box is empty

    after i'm asked to download something the download box comes up but there isn't anything in the download box,it's empty. there's no file or run option

  • When trying to update Adobe Flash the download box pops up but it never lists the Adobe update file. Meanwhile a prompt at the bottom of my screen pops up and says "download complete"

    Firefox 6.0.2
    Windows XP
    no matter how I try to update the download never shows up in the downloads box. A box pops up at the bottom of my screen and says "all downloads finished" but it never shows up in my downloads list so I am never given the option to "run".
    I was able to find it manually in the download list but I have no idea why it will not pull up correctly when doing an auto update.

    AA9 is not compatible with Reader. It is probably best to uninstall Reader and then repair AA9 (Help>Repair). Also, when you install you should generally be logged in as the administrator and have anti-virus disabled.
    For the updates, it may be best to simply go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows, download the updates, and install them in order. A new system may be the problem, particularly if it is Win8 and 64 bit, you did not say. For 64-bit systems, the updates are critical (I think AA9 works on 64-bit systems after the updates). For AA X, it required 10.1 for 64-bits.
    Also, if you updated OFFICE, then expect to only print to the Adobe PDF printer. AA9 does not work with PDF Maker on the newer versions of OFFICE.
    If you uninstall AA9 for some reason (I don't recommend except as a last resort), then be sure to remove the Acrobat folder and run the cleaner (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html) before a reboot and reinstall.

  • I was just wondering if the newer verison of FF has the older download box that we all love?

    I have FF v21, which has the download box that is loved and easy to use. Especially when i want to pause and resume downloads. I want to update to the latest FF, but i don't like the newer download box. I was wondering what version has the box before it switches over and if the older download box has been bought back?
    So many people miss that box and it was one of the best features from FF. If it hasn't been bought back, what is taking so long?
    I really want to update to latest FF, but am not looking forward to the download box changing, if it still isn't back.
    Could anyone tell me if the latest FF has the older loved download box or the newer one?
    Thanks for any help

    The Downloads folder in the Library that is used by the new Downloads Manager is present since Firefox 8 (2011), so even in Firefox 23 both are present and managed.
    The currently used Download Manager uses the Library and the places.sqlite database file to store the downloads list and treats downloads the same as other history items and adds an annotation (places table: moz_annos) to identify these items as downloads.
    The previously used Downloads Manager stored the downloads in the downloads.sqlite file.
    Firefox manages downloads in the Downloads folder in the Library (History > Show All History)
    *Downloads are treated as history items: clearing history removes included download items and vice versa.
    *When downloads are in progress you see an animated download button on the Navigation Toolbar showing an estimate of the remaining time
    *The Download button gets a blue highlight once all download are finished to make you aware that new downloads are available.
    *Pause and Resume can be found in the right-click context menu of an item in the drop-down list and in the Library.
    You can open the about:downloads page in a tab or window for easy access.
    In Private Browsing mode the about:downloads page will be used and not the Library Downloads Manager.
