Unable to download large files via my Mobile Network

I have unlimited mobile data but I am unable to download large files, like podcasts unless I connect to Wi Fi. My settings are set to use mobile data, is there anything I can do?

There is a 50meg (recently upgraded from 20) per file download limit over cellular data. No, you can't change that.

After some running time I cannot download large files via any browser.

I am running OS X 10.9.2 on a 27inch iMac 2013 model.
If I keep it running (without sleeping) for some time, perhaps a week, I can no longer download any large files via any browser. It will start and after a very short time go down to 0 B/s, stall there and at the end aboft with an "Unknown network error" or something similar.
Has anyone seen similar problems?

Problem downloading large files via Safari

When downloading large video files (for example, from FilesAnywhere.com), my download stars off OK and then slowly gets slower and slower... and slower and then seems to grind to a halt. I'm currently attempting to download a 165MB file which has taken all day so far, and the time remaining just gets longer and longer. It now stands at another 18 hours, but by the morning it will most likley tell me there's a week left.
Does anybody know what is causing this? I can download via FTP with no problem very fast -it's just via Safari that seems to be the problem. I'm on a home broadband account.
I've encountered this problem before and I just had to give up on the download.

Good to see the problem was solved from the suggestion provided. Glad to have helped.

Unable to download pdf file in windows 8.1

After upgrading to windows 8.1, i have been unable to download pdf files sent via yahoo email, IE11 and Adobe Reader 11. Did not have this problem before with windows 8. I click on the pdf attachment, NOrton says that the file is safe but nothing happens. Am unable to save the file to my computer either. Have already reloaded Adobe Reader repeatedly, drivers for window 8.1 associated with the hardware on my system, newest version of internet explorer,, upgraded drivers for my Canon printer and still no downloads!!!
Can anybody help? Microsoft community unable to give anymore suggestions.

Wrong forum (this is Digital Editions), but ...
I find .pdf files often won't launch properly on my Win8.1. It starts the process but it doesn't do the right thing.
Try making sure you don't have any copies of Reader working (AcroRd32.exe on my 32 bit Win 8.1).
Start a copy from the start screen (or start menu if you've set one up) BEFORE you try to access the file.
Now try to do the download or open it from the downloads directory.
I find that way the file will open properly.

Uploading Very Large Files via HTTP

I am developing some classes that must upload files to a web server via HTTP and multipart/form-data. I am using Apache's Tomcat FileUpload library contained within the commons-fileupload-1.0.jar file on the server side. My code fails on large files or large quantities of small files because of the memory restriction of the VM. For example when uploading a 429 MB file I get this exception:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
Exception in thread "main"I have never been successful in uploading, regardless of the server-side component, more than ~30 MB.
In a production environment I cannot alter the clients VM memory setting, so I must code my client classes to handle such cases.
How can this be done in Java? This is the method that reads in a selected file and immediately writes it upon the output stream to the web resource as referenced by bufferedOutputStream:
private void write(File file) throws IOException {
byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
BufferedInputStream fileInputStream = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
// read in the file
if (file.isFile()) {
    System.out.print("----- " + file.getName() + " -----");
    while (fileInputStream.available() > 0) {
      if (fileInputStream.available() >= 0 &&
          fileInputStream.available() < bufferSize) {
        buffer = new byte[fileInputStream.available()];
      fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
      bufferedOutputStream.write(buffer);
      bufferedOutputStream.flush();
    // close the files input stream
    try {
      fileInputStream.close();
    } catch (IOException ignored) {
      fileInputStream = null;
else {
    // do nothing for now
}The problem is, the entire file, and any subsequent files being read in, are all being packed onto the output stream and don't begin actually moving until close() is called. Eventually the VM gives way.
I require my client code to behave no different than the typcial web browser when uploading or downloading a file via HTTP. I know of several commercial applets that can do this, why can't I? Can someone please educate me or at least point me to a useful resource?
Thank you,
Henryiv

Are you guys suggesting that the failures I'm
experiencing in my client code is a direct result of
the web resource's (servlet) caching of my request
(files)? Because the exception that I am catching is
on the client machine and is not generated by the web
server.
trumpetinc, your last statement intrigues me. It
sounds as if you are suggesting having the client code
and the servlet code open sockets and talk directly
with one another. I don't think out customers would
like that too much.Answering your first question:
Your original post made it sound like the server is running out of memory. Is the out of memory error happening in your client code???
If so, then the code you provided is a bit confusing - you don't tell us where you are getting the bufferedOutputStream - I guess I'll just assume that it is a properly configured member variable.
OK - so now, on to what is actually causing your problem:
You are sending the stream in a very odd way. I highly suspect that your call to
buffer = new byte[fileInputStream.available()];is resulting in a massive buffer (fileInputStream.available() probably just returns the size of the file).
This is what is causing your out of memory problem.
The proper way to send a stream is as follows:
     static public void sendStream(InputStream is, OutputStream os, int bufsize)
                 throws IOException {
          byte[] buf = new byte[bufsize];
          int n;
          while ((n = is.read(buf)) > 0) {
               os.write(buf, 0, n);
     static public void sendStream(InputStream is, OutputStream os)
                 throws IOException {
          sendStream(is, os, 2048);
     }the simple implementation with the hard coded 2048 buffer size is fine for almost any situation.
Note that in your code, you are allocating a new buffer every time through your loop. The purpose of a buffer is to have a block of memory allocated that you then move data into and out of.
Answering your second question:
No - actually, I'm suggesting that you use an HTTPUrlConnection to connect to your servlet directly - no need for special sockets or ports, or even custom protocols.
Just emulate what your browser does, but do it in the applet instead.
There's nothing that says that you can't send a large payload to an http servlet without multi-part mime encoding it. It's just that is what browsers do when uploading a file using a standard HTML form tag.
I can't see that a customer would have anything to say on the matter at all - you are using standard ports and standard communication protocols... Unless you are not in control of the server side implementation, and they've already dictated that you will mime-encode the upload. If that is the case, and they are really supporting uploads of huge files like this, then their architect should be encouraged to think of a more efficient upload mechanism (like the one I describe) that does NOT mime encode the file contents.

Airport Extreme with Ubee D3.0 - cannot download large files.

Hello all Macoids!
Here is my issue...
I am on Charter Cable Network using Charter's provided modem Ubee D3.0 It is connected to an AirPort Extreme "main base" vie ethernet cable. That AirPort Extreme that I call "main base" distributes the WiFi throughout the apartment to other AirPort devices. And it all works.
However...
I cannot download large files on Wi-Fi using iMac or even while connected to the AirPort Extreme main base via ethernet cable on my MacBook. What is interesting that inside of iTunes I can download large files with TV shows episodes just fine, but the update to an iPhone or an iPad will stop after 10 or 100 megs with error message "Unknown Error 9006" occurred. Interestingly enough, if I will drag the Download window in iTunes around while it is downloading 1.4 gig iOS update file for iPhone 5 - it will complete fine. So it looks like Airport main base (or whichever Mac is used) looses the connection to a download server or Ubee D3.0 modem, unless I constantly "renew" it by dragging the Download window around.
That is quite annoying to do for 15-20 minutes… Same happens on MacBook Pro that is actually connected to an AirPort Extreme main base via ethernet cable...
Macbook running OS 10.9
iMac running OS 10.8.5
Same thing.
I would've call Charter but knowing well they have usually no idea what is up I thought to ask here if anyone has the same problem….?
Any smart suggestions not based on experience?
Anything appreciated very much!

I ended up reformatting with HFS and the problem was solved, sort of. The AEBS can now handle large files. But that allowed me to expose yet another serious firmware bug (version 7.6.1), namely that if you use "account" style fileshares, the fileshares are not reliably accessible anymore, and frequent rebooting of the AEBS is needed to bring them back. A quick test for whether this has happened is just attempt at ten-minute intervals to create a file on a read-write share. You'll find it can work for up to a few hours, but at some point it will fail. Makes the AEBS essentially unusable for account-based fileshares. I
With firmware 7.5, I'd noticed a variation of this problem, which was that editing the fileshare permissions on the AEBS resulted sometimes in a corruption of the fileshare rights. When this happened, you needed to reinitialize the AEBS completely. So I hoped that in 7.6 they fixed the probems. They fixed that one but added the new one.
For now, the workaround seems to be using a device-based password for the fileshares, and forgetting about account-based shares. The huge problem presented by this approach is that all users have full access, so I await Apple's next attempt at stable firmware with great anticipation. If only they had a beta test program, other than their users, we would not be in this near-constant state of working around serious bugs.

Can I download large files a bit at a time

I'm on dialup and I'm wondering if it is possible to download large files, such as security updates, in small bits like you can do from a P2P network.
Can I adjust a preference, download a utility, buy some additional software?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
G5 iSight Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Thanks Niel for the link. I downloaded that program, and then, knowing what to look for, located a few others as well.
I'm sure they all will allow me to download large files, but how do I get these programs to press the button that says "Download". I go to the page that has the "Download" button, copy the web address for that page, paste it into the program, tell it to download, but of course all it does is copy the page.
I know there must be an easy way to do it, but after a few hours of trying I can't fathom it.
How do you find the web address of the actual file?

Is there a way I can 'select all' for downloading purchase files via family sharing instead of selecting each file or folder one at a time?

Problem downloading a file via http

Hi
I'm just getting started with WLS (sp5) and am having a problem downloading
a file via http. The document is stored in the main html docs directory and
whenever I link to it or try to download it directly (eg:
http://<host>:<port>/myfile.doc) I get the following error in a message box:
Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded.
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I grant permissions
to do this - I've tried using the weblogic.security.URLAclFile and adding
the directory as a weblogic.io.fileSystem (a desperation move, I know).
Thanks in advance,
Peter Villiers

PLEASE IGNORE THIS POST
The problem was caused by someone (me though I honestly don't remember doing
it), setting the content security level to high in my web browser which
stopped this type of download.

How to download a file via web service in Windows Phone 8.1?

My project just got 2 part.
1.Pivot app
2.Webclient server (provide data for pivot app the view the data)
My concert that how do i do a download button to download a file via web services in to isolated storage.
urgent!

something like this:
public async System.Threading.Tasks.Task DownloadFile()
using (var client = new Windows.Web.Http.HttpClient())
var stream = await client.GetInputStreamAsync(new System.Uri("http://urltomyfile"));
var file = await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.CreateFileAsync("myfile.txt", CreationCollisionOption.GenerateUniqueName);
using (var fileStream = await file.OpenAsync(FileAccessMode.ReadWrite))
IBuffer buffer = new Windows.Storage.Streams.Buffer(1024);
while ((buffer = await stream.ReadAsync(buffer, buffer.Capacity, InputStreamOptions.None)).Length > 0)
await fileStream.WriteAsync(buffer);
await fileStream.FlushAsync();
how is your webservices offering the file?

IMac disconnects when downloading large files

The internet on my iMac is a wired connection, hooked up through my router. It works perfectly fine and never disconnects while I'm browsing, playing games, or anything like that. When I download small files, things are still fine. Whenever I download something that takes more than a few minutes, my connection will shut itself off like clockwork. It then takes a minute or two to kick back in and resume, but then after another few minutes it will disconnect itself again. It isn't my ISP, since my laptop (Windows 7) downloads fine on this same network. My iPhone and iPad also have no problem downloading large files on this network either. What could be causing this strange issue with my iMac?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise 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) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

TS1368 when downloading large files such as videos of television season do you need to turn off autolock to prevent download from halting

when downloading large files such as videos of a television season do you need to turn off autolock to prevent download from halting? And if so, if the download will take a significant amount of time (not sure how much offhand) how do you prevent burn in from prolonged screen image?

Among the alternatives not mentioned... Using a TiVo DVR, rather than the X1; a Roamio Plus or Pro would solve both the concern over the quality of the DVR, as well as providing the MoCA bridge capability the poster so desperately wanted the X1 DVR to provide. (Although the TiVo's support only MoCA 1.1.) Just get a third-party MoCA adapter for the distant location. Why the hang-up on having a device provided by Comcast? This seems especially ironic given the opinions expressed regarding payments over time to Comcast. If a MoCA 2.0 bridge was the requirement, they don't exist outside providers. So couldn't the poster have simply requested a replacement XB3 from the local office and configured it down to only providing MoCA bridging -- and perhaps as a wireless access point? Comcast would bill him the monthly rate for the extra device, but such is the state of MoCA 2.0. Much of the OP sounds like frustration over devices providing capabilities the poster *thinks* they should have.

HT1750 unable to download pdf files with the new lion instillation

I am unable to download pdf files after installing lion.

I have an imac purchased 4/2010 and same thing happened to me but can't find anyone to address it. The real tragedy here is that I paid for the full adobe creative suite, web premium back in 2010 and Adobe Pro can't open them, although it worked just fine before. Then I installed the latest version of Adobe reader and tried changing that to my default and that doesn't work either.
It's pretty lame that I have to go on my boyfriends windows pc to open and print a .pdf as the only alternative. I did not read about this when researching whether or not to upgrade to lion from snow leopard otherwise I would not have kept the old operating system.
Why isn't apple addressing this???
