Problems with downloading music files from particular websites

Has anyone else had problems using the Calabash or Afropop websites to download music files? I am able to download using Tiger on my MacBook Pro but each time I try the same with Leopard on my iMac, I get a message that the file does not exist. However, I am able to download music files from other sites like Music for Robots so I am not sure if there is something wrong with the sites themselves?

The files are definitely corrupted because they skip and have areas that sound like the file bits are jumbled.  I verified this on two different computers.  Dragging the same song straight from the server to the computer or streaming it the songs
play fine.  I also had trouble with the same hard drives corrupting music and pictures when I had the raid tower in Raid 0.  I have since put the drives in clean mode and reformatted full to NTFS.  The Raid tower is a TR4UTBPN with two WD 1.5tb
7200 drives.  I am running them in USB 3.0 mode with supplied turbo USB software to super speed the tower.  My pictures when they corrupt have solid color banding all through the middle.  I may try making a folder on one of the internal server
drives and try downloading and see if they are corrupt as well.  when I say it corrupted the files before I mean you couldn't stream them copy them or look at them on the server without them being corrupted.  Any thoughts?

  • Problem With Transferred Music Files From External HD

    I have two external drives, both of which have music stored on them. One I use as my library for iTunes, the other is basically just stored as a secondary because I didn't really listen to it much. I decided to move all of the music together on one drive, obviously as my iTunes library, but everything I moved over from the secondary drive doesn't show up in iTunes. It does, however, show in my iTunes Music folder with the rest of the music. Any ideas?

    Figured it out.

  • Corrupted content error when trying to download .pdf file from one website.

    Unable to download .pdf file from a website, but IE8 provided the download without hesitation.
    Both v7 and v8 produced the same message:
    "Corrupted content error"
    The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected.
    This may be a particular website problem, or it may be common to the particular industry segment and their protocols.
    I have followed the help leads and examined the profile for Firefox as used in this instance. Nothing untoward seemed to pop out as a causal factor.

    Reworked some of the javascript for our webserver and fixed the problem.

    Hi,
    My requirement is to download a file from a website using a java program. I have written a program using HttpClient API but I am unable to do so. Reality is that I don't know how to proceed with the HttpClient API to get the file downloaded. Same file can also be downloaded manually by login to that website, below mentioned steps are to be followed to download the file manually.
    1. Login to the website using Login/Password (I have valid login/password)
    2. Two options (links) are there (a) Report (b) Search [I am chosing report option]
    3. Newly opened window shows two tabs (a) Today (b) From & To [I am selection Today tab]
    4. Every tab has two radio button (a) File (b) Destination [Destination is selected by me]
    5. When Search button is pressed. A link gets created when that link is clicked file download popup is opened which allows facility to open/save the file.
    All these 5 step are to be followed in a java program to download the file. Please help in doing the same.

  • Problem with downloading individual songs from an already purchased album to iPhone

    Hi All,
    I'm having problems with downloading single songs from the "purchased" list onto my iPhone. I reset my phone and went to redownload my music, however i only want to download certain songs from different albums which in the past i've been able to do by navigating to the purchases section of the itunes app, then opening each album and selecting the cloud like icon by each song i want.
    Having tried this today, i get the list of songs however the all have a "Purchased" next to them which is greyed out and the only way to download anything is to get the whole album. I've not got iTunes match on and can't think of any settings i've changed, can any suggest what i need to do to enable me to just get a selection of songs?

    Actually Michael I know exactly how to delete.. The iPhone would not let me swipe to the left to delete the individual song, so I went to the album view and did it there.. The issue I am having is a bug because it removed 3/4 of the albums availablity off my iPhone.. You post proved no help because it is basic troubleshooting which, if you read my post, I have already done.. I did however figure out how to fix my issue on my own.. Basically I had to remove the album from my iTunes on my computer and upload it again to iTunes Match..

  • Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

    Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

    haben
    From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
    A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
    Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
    User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
    presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
    What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30)  or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
    a constant frame rate?
    Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • How do I move music folders with individual music files from windows 7 to itunes folder so that they are recognizable and playble?

    How do I move music folders with individual music files from windows 7 to the itunes library so the files are usable in itunes?

    All of the following programs should work with Vista.
    Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    SharePod is also freeware.

  • I have a problem with downloading app (Twitter) from App Store.

    I have a problem with downloading app (Twitter) from App Store. I don't want this app. It is not downloaded yet, the download is still in progress.  I have limited data plan and I don't have a chance to finish the download via PC. The size of the app - 33 mb. Could you please cancel the download process so I will be able to remove the icon.

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
    Are you able to connect to a wifi network - tapping the app should pause the download of the app and change it to 'waiting', so you should be able to pause the download until you have access to a wifi network.

    WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
    Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them.

  • Problems with syncing music files.

    Hi there, i have an Iphone 4 running IOS 7.0.4 and have been experiencing problems whilst attempting to sync music files onto my iphone.
    The tracks i want are shown perfectly fine in my library and play perfectly well. My iphone is set to sync my whole library to the phone, but when i sync my phone, it says the songs i want are on the phone, but have grey dotted circles next to them. Then when i disconnect the phone from my computer, there is no sign of them. I have been experiencing this problem for about a day now and would really appreciate any help anyone can provide.
    Many thanks,
    Chris Kanikula

    Hi Chris,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The grey dotted circle means the songs have not synced over to your iPhone.
    Is it possible that you don't have enough room on your iPhone for your entire music library?
    I would suggest following the instructions below to setup manual syncing, remove the songs that you are having issues with, and resync them.
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
    You can also download songs you have purchased directly to your iPhone:
