Safari won't allow me to download files

Safari won't allow downloads. What can I do?

Safari usually will download files that it can handle itself or files that can be handled by another app on your iPad. What type of file is it not downloading? Perhaps if you had an app that could handle the file type you could download it.

  • Safari won't allow me to download ICloud control panel so I can download pics from PC to my IPad.

    Safari won't allow me to download ICloud control panel on my IPad, so I can download my pictures FROM my PC

    Hi Krazy,
    OK, a couple of things:
    1. You do have the iCloud icon in your settings on your iPad, right?
    2. You do have Photo Stream turned on on your iPad in the iCloud setting, right?
    3. You do have an iPhone that has an iCloud icon in your settings that has Photo Stream turned on, right?
    So, the only place left that you would see an iCloud icon would be on your Mac in the System Preferences, and you would want to have Photo Stream turned on there as well.
    Can you let me know if any of the statements I have listed above are not true, or you do not have? Seems like you may have been given some misinformation about iCloud, Photo Stream, and how to set it all up.....
    As far as other pictures go (those not in the photo stream - which is a temporary holding place that shares the photos among all your devices without having to do a sync), if you have pictures that you have uploaded to your computer from your iPhone or camera, etc. they are housed in iPhoto (if you are on a Mac). In order to get these pictures to display on your iPad, you need to sync your iPad to that Mac via iTunes.
    Is any of this making any sense?

    An iPad (iOS) is not a Mac (OS X), they are different operating systems. Also you can only install apps that are in the iTunes App Store on your computer, or the App Store app on the iPad

    I am a librarian at a 1:1 iPad school and we are having this problem with all ~3000 student iPads as well at ~300 teacher iPads.  This is extremely frustrating.  I have tried suggested fixes found on other discussion boards but none have worked.

  • My app store won't allow me to download any apps because of pervious purchase which I never purchased ?

    My app store won't allow me to download any apps because of pervious purchase which I never purchased ?

    I'm sure you purchased it since no one else would have your password to download apps
    Make sure your CC has funds on it and its up to date on your itunes store account.

  • I purchased a book on itunes, but it won't allow me to download the book on my ipad.  Anyone have this problem?

    I purchased a book on itunes but it won't allow me to download the book on my ipad.  It allowed me to download the book on my computer, but I don't know how to transfer it from the computer to the ipad.  Can anyone help me?

    You should be able to re download the book on your iPad.
    Try here >   Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    On your iPad tap Settings > iTunes & App Store
    Swipe down and make sure Books is switched ON.
    Purchased books should appear when tapping the iBooks icon now.

  • HT3209 My Computer supports all of the requirements, plus I use Apple TV, iPhone4s, and the New iPad (dumb name by the way) and it still won't allow me to download HD Movies. What is wrong with this picture?

    Why is that my PC supports all of the requirements for HD video but iTunes won't allow me to Download HD Movie. I am able to handle some of the most intense PC Games and I have HD movies Downloaded from previous versions of iTunes that work just fine. This is just stupid that iTunes thinks it knows my Computer's capibilities better than I do. Is there a way to change it?

    Hi,
    At the top of any Buddy List it will show Your Name or your Handle (Screen Name)
    This can be changed if you click on what is shown currently and it will become a drop down.
    Pic
    The "Name" is taken from the Mac User Account that is logged in and the My Card in that Address Book.
    So if this is your New Macbook Pro then Open the Address Book (Presumably there is only one Mac User account on this computer at the moment) and find the My Card (Head and Shoulders iCon)
    Make sure the details are yours.
    If the details are your brother's (Migrated info ?) then find your card and then go to the Card Menu and the option "Make this My Card".
    When Adding and @mac.com name to iChat 6.x the server for the AIM login should read api.oscar.aol.com
    The port likes to be port 443 with SSL ON  (See Sever Settings tab in iChat > Preferences > Accounts)
    Try it without SSL
    NOTE:  Despite the Add screen saying @Mac.com the account can get listed in the Accounts List as a MobileMe account.
    I would check that the original computer or the current one is not set to allow only one Login.

  • Hi I have upgraded my gb on my iPad to 25 gb and it says I have 20.2gb available but it won't allow me to download a movie why is this?

    Hi I have upgraded my gobs on my iPad to 25 gb and it says I have 20.2 gb available but it won't allow me to download a movie why is that? And can anyone help please?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have upgraded iCloud storage, but what you need is free space on the iPad storage to download the movie, so open Settings > General > Use, and remove things from your iPad until you have enough storage to download the movie.
    Respecting to iCloud, you can get a refund if you contact with Apple > http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact It is a common mistake by users

  • My safari won't allow me to quit

    a recent update to safari is what I beleive haas caused some sort of glitch that won't allow me to quit safari

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Xcode won't allow me to download again...

    I have multiple Mac systems for which I want to install the Xcode software.   I came in to my office and tried to install it from the App Store, only to find it says it's "installed" and won't allow me to reinstall it.    Seems like that's an oversight to me, possibly a bug.
    I'm not a paid developer member, as I don't develop software, tho I do have an account on the developer site.   Is there a way around this problem or a direct link to download the Xcode for Lion?
    Thanks...

    The receipt is in the app bundle, if you deleted the app you deleted the receipt. Is the trial or the app possibly on a connected ext HDD, or a backup? The MAS can read app receipts on all connected drives.

  • Does JXTA allow you to download files from multiple source like a P2P?

    I was interested in working on some networked apps using JXTA and I was wondering if JXTA allows you to download a file from multiple users (ala Bittorrent or P2P) or whether it's by a user to user basis?

    To keep the sort of malware rather prevalent for Android devices off of your iPhone. Depending on what you need to download, though, you can probably find a third-party app that will do it. Since such apps keep their documents in their own sandbox, it helps protect the iPhone from being infected by malicious "documents".
    Regards.
