When attempting downloads, I occasionally lose a signal/connection. Is there a way to resume instead of restarting after signal lose?

It gets really annoying to restart after 100 MB has already downloaded. Plus, because I live in the middle of nowhere I am forced to use a mobile data device for my best connection, which means my data usage is limited. Is there an add-on or a fix?

Try these steps to resume an unfinished download when you still have the .part file.
# Move the old .part partial download and the final file without the .part that has size 0 to another location.
# Start a new download and pause it, don't close Firefox.
# Copy the two files (.part and 0 byte final) that you moved above back to the download location to replace the new files that were created.
# Resume the download in Firefox.
If that doesn't work then the server may not support resuming.
It is better to use an external Download Manager (DM) if you are on dialup or have an unreliable connection.<br />
An external Download Manager offers better support for resuming interrupted downloads than the built-in Firefox DM.<br />
Use an external Download Manager if you need download features not offered by the Firefox Download Manager.

You can use the FlashGot extension to integrate an external Download Manager in Firefox.

    I am sorry that you don't find the answer to be correct. In THIS forum, telling you that you are in the wrong forum, and suggesting where to post for correct answers, or indeed any support, IS the answer.
    I'm also sorry that you purchased a phone that you are having trouble with. If the vendor cannot help you (HTC), and the eBay seller cannot help you, then you really do need to either follow up with the forums Ken suggests, or the HTC forum, or with eBay.

    Hi Grandmaz5,
    If you are having issues connecting to Facebook on your iPad, and you have already troubleshot the Facebook app itself, you may want to check the built-in iOS settings for Facebook; you may find the following article helpful:

  • CF 10 getting random resets : Detail: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]A problem occurred when attempting to contact the server (Server returned: Connection reset).

      These resets appear to coincide with a clearing of the cached queries for the DSN from memory, breaking all my sub queries that try to use the initial cached one.  I am grasping at straws to discover the reset culprit, the DSN tests always show OK, there is not packet loss at the switch level.  If anyone has some suggestions, I am all ears!
      The resets are completely random and under no load.  My sql 2008 r2 box is set to unlimited connections.
    An example of a DSN setup is :
    Maintain Connections [x]
    String Format [ ]
    Max Pooled Statements 100
    Timeout 20 Interval 7
    Query Timeout 0
    Login Timeout 30
    CLOB [ ]
    BLOB [ ]
    Long Text Buffer 64000
    Blob Buffer 64000
    Validate Connection [ ]
    I am running the following :
    CF Enterprise 10,0,13,287689
    Tomcat 7.0.23.0
    Ubuntu 1204 x64
    Java VM 20.4-b02
    Java 1.6 (Sun Microsystems Inc)
      I have seen it suggested to uncheck the maintain connections advanced options but this doesn't seem like a good approach to the problem and will cause more stress on the sql box IMHO.
      I have also seen it suggested to enable Validate Connection but documentation on this is a bit sparse...
    Here are more examples of the initial reset error and then the subsequent cache related errors :
    Database Error Information:
    Native Error Code: 0
    SQL State: 08S01
    Query Error: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]A problem occurred when attempting to contact the server (Server returned: Connection reset). Please ensure that the server parameters passed to the driver are correct and that the server is running. Also ensure that the maximum number of connections have not been exceeded for this server.
    Custom Error Code: 08S01
    Database Error Information:
    Native Error Code: 0
    SQL State: n/a
    Query Error:
    Query Of Queries runtime error.
    Table named GlobalDetails was not found in memory. The name is misspelled or the table is not defined.
    Custom Error Code: n/a
    Thanks in advance to anyone who has a suggestion.

  • I've just rented a movie on iTunes, and I tried to start it before the download finished, and now even though it has finished when I try to play it nothing happens. Is there a way to reload it without paying again??

    I've just rented a movie on iTunes, and I tried to start it before the download finished, and now even though it has finished when I try to play it nothing happens. Is there a way to reload it without paying again??

    I'm not convinced that starting it before it was downloaded has anything to do with it, you should be able to do that. I'd try restarting the computer and if that doesn't help, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History.

  • Hi, haven't used iMovie in years.  I shot some video with my cell phone camera (Samsung Galaxy S2).  When I tried to make a movie, the clips I downloaded played back sideways on iMovie.  Is there any way I an flip the video from horizontal to vertical?

    You actually want a vertical video??
    What would you show that on?!

    In earlier versions of iMovie you can also do this using Quicktime Pro 7:
    Open MOV file in QT Pro (QT 7.6.6)
    Window -> Show Movie Properties
    select "Video Track"
    select "Visual Settings" from lower window
    check "Preserve Aspect Ratio"
    Click on appropriate rotation icon (MOV rotates!)
    Click back on the open MOV in Player Window
    FILE -> Save
    You can also do this using TransformMovie, available here:

  • Is there a way to detect each pulse of a signal

    Hi All,
    I need to detect every pulse of my input signal pulse, is there a way to do that, I tried using basic level triggering but the trigger doesnot switch true and false between pulses.
    I need to detect the input pulse for some ms  and then generate an output pulse at the falling edge of the input pulse.
    can someone tell me way to do that, i do have a daq board usb 6361, but couldnt find a proper way to do something like this.
    my input signal frequency varies between 100-450 hz with amp -0.1v and pulse width of 5 microsecond

    I think we can do this with some extra circuitry.  First of all, we need to gain up that input puse to be a +5V.  You will need an inverting amplifier with a gain of 50.  Now you have a TTL level signal that you can feed into a PFI line to use as a trigger.  You can use an analog output to output a waveform (your 2V pulse) when that trigger line goes high.
    There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

    I no longer have the PC that had my CD library and purchased music on iTunes. I am now on another PC and managed to download my purchased iTunes music etc. Is there a way on iTunes that I can get back my old CD music library without ripping again ? Earlier back up is corrupted. Thank you in advance. No longer have my old iPod but getting new one.

    If you had the hard drive from the original machine, a backup of the same, an iPod with the media, or a subscription to iTunes Match then there would have been hope, but alas no.

  • Is there a way? When I type something in the search engine feature, is there a way that when I press enter to search, it comes up in a new tab, rather on the page I am using?

    When I type something in the search engine feature, is there a way that when I press enter to search, it comes up in a new tab, rather on the page I am using?

    Yes, and I presume you mean both the search engine results, and the pages opened from the results.
    Without making any changes you could always use '''Alt+Enter''' once you typed something into the search bar, or the location bar so that it would appear in a new tab. From the search results page you could always use "'''Ctrl+click'''" or "'''Ctrl+Shift+click'''" to open link n a new tab

    If the reset does not help, make an appointment at the Apple store.  If your phone is out of warranty and you can't afford what they want, google for local repair services.
