Safari stops downloading halfway through and i cant retry it
Hello,
I'm having a problem with my Safari in Macbook Pro and it's really making me angry.
So the problem is that when i try to download anything that's more than 100MB or even more than 50MB safari stops downloading it halfway through and it doesn't give me any explanation or anything really and another issue is that i cant retry it ; i tried to download it again and it doesn't make any difference it stops downloading maybe after it downloads a couple more MB than the last one. I tried using Google Chrome and i have the same problem with that too.
I appreciate any helpful tips.
Several ideas ...
Since both browsers are affected, check with your ISP. There may be a bandwidth stipulation.
Disable anti virus software if installed.
Check Safari > Preferences > Extensions. If there are any installed, switch to OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
Little Snitch or Mac Keeper installed? Either one are problematic.

I keep trying to burn a CD-R in Iphoto, and every time iPhoto stops burning halfway through and i get this error message, "Attemp to burn a disc failed. Burn failed due to a medium write error." I am using memorex CD-R's and have tried with 4 times with different CD's. Is this a software or hardware problem? Any info would be awesome
Export the photos to a desktop folder, right click on the folder and burn to disk - see if that is any different

My downloaded song stops suddenly halfway through. I assume there was a problem with the download. Can I download the file again?? Will I have to purchase the song again?
You need to delete the current copy of the broken track from your library before it will be offered up for download. It may help to close and reopen iTunes.
If the problem persists and you can't get a good version of the file contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

Faces stops scanning halfway through, won't list any photos at all.
Just bought iLife '09, so I'm a little behind the curve. I started the faces scan, but accidentally closed the program halfway through it, so now, when I start the program, I just have the blank corkboard template.
I deleted the face.db and face_blob.db files to force it to rescan, but now it just gets halfway through and gives up, sending me back to the blank corkboard template. I don't know what to try next, I don't want to delete anything important. My library is crazy unorganized from being like 6 years old, so that might be affecting things. All my software is updated.
Anyone have solutions here?Greetings,
Love the name.
Is your iPhoto Library stored in the usual location? (User > Pictures > iPhoto Library)
How much free space do you have on your computer?
Ensure all your software is up to date (Apple Menu > Software Update).
Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
Home > Library > Caches (I remove the whole folder. It will be re-generated upon restart.)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
Go into iPhoto and name someone in your library and then see if their face appears when you click on "Faces".
If the issue persists try rebuilding your iPhoto Library following this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638. Use the bottom 3 rebuild options.
If the issue persists after the rebuild, close iPhoto, remove the 2 faces database files again, open iPhoto and then leave iPhoto open until the status arrows next to Faces stop spinning. THEN name someone and go back to the cork board to check it out.
Hope that helps. -
Cannot get the update on my iPhone 4. It quits downloading halfway through every time. Any suggestions?
SBerman- I am the only owner/user of the phone but thanks for trying on that angle. It doesn't apply but I appreciate your idea.
KiltedTim- Yes, I have encountered an activation lock. The Apple ID should be the one that I use when I go into itunes but that one is not working. I even tried the Apple email/id I got when I first bought the phone years ago and that didn't work either. It is asking me for an id that ends in @me.com and I have NO IDEA what this is or how to get it to "shift focus" onto one of the id's I do know.
Does that make things clearer? -
how to download new version of ios 5.0 in my ipod ? i cant download new apps and i cant connect to itunes store.?
Only with iOS5 or later you can update/upgrade directly from the iPod/iPhone.
When your version of iOS is lower than 5, you must connect to iTunes and then update.
It is best when you update iTunes to the latest version first.

Have you hit your free max storage? Check settings>general>usage, under iCloud check Total storage/Available, then manage storage.

IPod freezes, after restore stops syncing halfway through
I have a 2-year old 20gb iPod that has worked fantastically for the last 2 years. About 2 weeks ago, its started freezing up at random times. I couldn't shut it off, skip songs, etc. I just had to wait 5 minutes or so for it to come back. I restored it on iTunes the other night, but during my reload of songs, it stopped halfway through. So, my iPod only has about 9gb on it. If I try to keep syncing it up, it eventually gives me an "unknown error occured" message and deletes everything on my iPod.
I NEED HELP!-Try resetting the iPod and try again.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next I would try restoring from backup
It is expected that when you connect an iPod that was synced to another computer/iTunes ibray, the iPod will be erased and its contents replaced with that in the iTunes library of the new computer. An iPod can only sync with one iTunes library. -
Acrobat stops functioning halfway through PDF creation
I have to convert a very large WORD document (a book, 680 pages including illustrations, tables, index etc.) to PDF. Let me begin by explaining that I've already done this in the past, using Acrobat Professional 5 and Office 2000 Professional; it took ages to create the PDF file, but I was able to do it. At that stage I actually had Acrobat 6, but since it blocked halfway through PDF creation, I went back to Acrobat 5 and managed to create my PDF file.
I've recently had to revise the document in question, but I now have Office 2007, Acrobat Professional 8.1.2, and a new laptop (Acer Aspire 5105, AMD Turion 64x2, 2.0 GHz, 160GB HDD). I tried converting it to pDF yesterday, but once again found that the program blocked halfway through (while creating Tags; it gets up to 60%, and then just stops functioning). I thought this might have something to do with the sceensaver starting up, or else the automatic saving of the WORD document, but I don't think this is the case.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be, and how o solve it?
MarkIt should convert exactly as long as you have done the editing with the Adobe PDF printer selected. This is a WORD issue. The ability to do the conversion was my concern and tags are likely the issue for such a large document, particularly if you have a lot of graphics. Keep in mind that to create the PDF, a PS file is first created -- that is a format that is not very small in terms of storage and could be huge. Your TEMP folder is typically limited by windows and may need to be emptied to hold this file.
Optimizing the graphics up front is also good. Using Mike's suggestion to find the problem graphic would be useful, but is hard to do with PDF Maker (I don't think you can select the pages with PDF Maker). Printing to the Adobe PDF printer will check the layout and also the ability to do the conversion. If the latter works, it is then a matter of determining what you need in PDF Maker.
If you do not need the markup (or wish to add later), then you can save a lot of space by simply printing to the Adobe PDF printer. With PDF Maker, you likely need to go back and review the defaults.
