Why are downloads restarting after resumption?

i have a macbook pro 13 inch. when i pause a download on safari or if my internet connection gets interrupted and the downloads stops and is paused, when i click resume it completely starts over. this is especially annoying for large files. on my old mac which was a regular macbook it would resume from where it left off. it is now just completely restarting. any solutions?

ok i see. do you know what websites do allow a resumption of the download? just so i can try one and see if it is working correctly.
thanks for the help

Hi why are my photos after downloading twice ,once in photo library and once in a file with the date why cant i delete a file its an iphone 4s please help

why are my photos after downloadon twice one as photo library the other as a file with date how can i delete one file same pics

Generally I would not use Facebook for sharing any photos, it compresses the photos substantially, and when you have shadows and dark colours you get visible "bands" where there should be subtle gradients, ie at sunsets and sunrises.
It sounds like you are using two methods to upload to Facebook:
1. Sharing from within Aperture, which basically syncs Facebook with your Aperture album, so any changes made at either end gets synced, hence the deletions from Albums, although the original file should still be in your library, just removed rom the album. It is like a playlist in iTunes.
2. Exporting pics and uploading to Facebook from the browser.
I am not sure how method 1 gets compressed, but I know that uploading hi-res jpegs to Facebook using method 2 results in poor quality images.
I wouldn't even bother comparing option 1 or 2, and they will both be poor images once you view them on Facebook, as opposed to viewing uploaded images on proper image sharing / hosting sites.
Your problem is not with Aperture, it is using Facebook for showing your work.
If you export pics form Aperture at high res jpegs or TIFFs your images will be fine.
If you insist to use Facebook as your way to share your work, then your workflow should be this:
1. Right click images you want to share.
2. Select Export version.
3. Export as 100% size and ensure the export settings are set at 100% quality.
4. Upload this pic into Facebook.
This will get you the best image size and resolution on Facebook.
See how you go.

Why are pictures taken after updating to ios 7 very granular?

Why are downloads taking so long?

I'm not exactly sure where to put this, as I am having two download problems.
One, I have a software update that is telling me it is going to take almost two days to complete and two, I am trying to download both an app and a TV show (ONE EPISODE) on the iTunes store. The app says it is going to take three hours and the episode says it is going to take 12. I do not have two days to sit around and wait for my software to update. I am a student and I have a lot of homework I need to do TODAY. Can anyone please help me/tell me why it's so slow or how to make it go faster?

Downloading through ethernet or wireless? Have you tried both? If slow on both, contact your ISP to determine if the problem is on their end. School server could be very busy if a lot of students are downloading the same leturers cause heavy traffic/bottleneck.
Which browser & version are you using? Have you tried others?
Have you read for possible solutions over in the "More Like This" thread over here?----------------------->

Why are downloads and all library unlistenable?

Why are all old downloads and new scramboed and unlistenable in library and itunes?

not sure about podcasts. but at least audiobooks have to be .m4b format to be recognized as such.
a very stupid solution would be... take the aac files (convert them, if they are not already), run the "make bookmarkable" script ( http://www.dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=makebookmarkable ), delete from the music list but keep files and drag them back in audioboos.
there HAS to be a better way. but at least it works.

Why are downloaded files being hidden?

OS X 10.6.8
Some files that I download from the internet are being hidden by the os. At first I thought that maybe the difference is that some .pdf files are protected but after review it is not just protected .pdf's being hidden from view it's non-protected .pdf's and some .jpg's too... I just noticed this happening over the past month or so. I also considered that it happened after an acrobat update but that wouldn't explain the hidden .jpg's. All file type associations appear to be normal, I have tried reassociating .pdf file types, etc and back to no avail. I dunnno', Any ideas?

I tried:
chflags nohidden -R ~/Downloads
it gave me an error message:
"-R no such file or directory"
So I tried:
chflags nohidden ~/Downloads
I got no error messages but it didn't help
It does seem random in the sense that some images and pdf's downloaded from the internet are not hidden (most of them aren't) but quite a few images and pd's are hidden on download. So far it only seems to be pdf's and image files (of all types) that
1. have been downloaded from the internet
2. through the chrome browser
3. within the past few months
The pdf's were all downloaded from various sites, some are protected content (printing and edit disabled) but free to download. The images (memes, charts or infographics) were downloaded from various sites some downloaded off of facebook...
I'm not finding a rhyme or reason to it.

Why are curves "inverted" after ACR grayscale conversion?

I have Photoshop CS5 version 12.0.1. If I make a grayscale conversion in Adobe Camera Raw and then open the image into Photoshop and add a curves adjustment layer, the curve is the "wrong" way round with the white point being on the left of the curves graph while the black point is on the right. However if I add a levels adjustment layer, the levels graph is as it usually is with the black point to the left and the white point to he right.
If I open the image from ACR in color without making a grayscale conversion, the curves layer is also as expected - black point to left and white point to right. Can anyone explain why it is inverted after a grayscale conversion in ACR?
Thanks

It's a good question; the default for grayscale images appears to be Pigment/Ink% instead of Light, leading to the "reversal" you describe.
The good news is that the default is separate for black and white and color images, and sticky, so you can change it around by doing this:
1. Click the little menu button at the upper right of the Adjustments panel and choose Curves Display Options.
2. Change the Show Amount of: setting from Pigment/Ink % to Light (0-255).
Hope this helps.

Numbers download restarts after 10 mb

Numbers was accidenly unistalled from my mac. I try to reinstall it via the "purchased" section on the app store, but the download restarts once it reaches 10mb.

Download restarted after pausing a few times

Can someone explain why has a large download (1.15GB) has suddenly started again after being paused a few timesand restarting half way through please?

Is this download from the Apps Store or through Software Update?
If this is from the Apps Store, then you're using an Intel-based Mac, and this forum is dedicated for pre-Intel based Macs, so you might get more responses in the Intel-Based Mac forum, here:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/desktop_computers/imac_intel
Or the Apps Store forum, here:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_app_store/using_mac_apple_store
If you're not using the Apps Store:
Maybe there was a Internet conncection error, I don't know. I've no personal experience with pausing and resuming downloads. I have had problems where downloads seemed to stop half-way through, so I quit the download, and restarted it fresh on my own.
I've heard some people say they have better luck using Firefox with a download manager or Chrome when downloading large files.
Sorry, I'm not more help.
Good luck.

Why are downloads so slow

When I tried to download the new firefox the download speed never got above 50kper second

WELL WITH 15MPS I BET YOU ARE RUNNING SLOW!
I would restart the router * any networking gear you have* and maybe the ipad if it is still slow. then do the following..

Why are downloads on Apple TV so slow now?

I have never had slow downloads... and I like to think I know what I am doing since I have been using Apple TV since the old hard drive version. Recently I cant even watch a movie without extreme buffering and waiting for the movie to download.. it is crazy.. I have tried everything I know to try.. does anyone have the silver bullet? I am on a super fast Windows 8.1 PC with Cable at 20M..

I have changed settings on the apple tv to remove the option of icloud and tried exclisvely airplay from pc. I have tried conference room mode.. it only seems to happen with newly downloaded movies or rented movies- for example last night tried to watch superman- it buffered for 5 min to start the movie then after about 3min it stopped and had to buffer again- keep in mind I rented this move over a week ago so I was not trying to stream while it was downloading. Also just bought End of the World- I have not watched the movie yet because of buffering. When I play an older movie in my collection there seems to be no issue.
I have reset the Apple TV, I have restarted the Apple TV, I have restarted the router, etc... all too no avail on the buffering issue/

Why are downloads freezing on iMac running 10.7.3?

I have a 2011 iMac running Lion OS X 10.7.3 and downloads are freezing part way through on both Safari and Firefox.

Have you emptied your cache? (Under Safari in top Menu?) Are you running any third party addons especially things such as Little Snitch, Speed Download or anti-virus software? Have you repaired permissions using DiskUtility?

Why are files larger after importing? idvd 08.

why when i import a 2.38gb file does it say 4.92gb and its too large for project? any answers are greatly appreciated. thank you.

Material on a DVD must be in a standard format, and video's format is mpeg-2. It sounds like you must have a video in a very compressed format and so iDVD has to uncompress it and change formats (transcoding).
Really though, what matters is length. iDVD can fit up to 1 hour of material at highest resolution (best performance setting in preferences) and up to 2 hrs maximum (best quality setting). Or you can use the Pro setting, and it will take a bit longer to encode/burn, but the quality should be similar to Best Performance.

Why are there 2 'after effects', 14 and regular and which one is the best use? It seems a little crazy to use twice the storeage for the same program?

I up graded adobe cc last night and the cc app down loaded up-grades to my original cc apps, plus another app of each labeled 14. Why do we need two copies of the same app on our machines, and which one is the best to use. I hope adobe in not going down the same road as apple and screwing up the works. i still remember way back when adobe goofed it so bad I switched to final cut. Now apple has screwed up final cut and I am back to Premiere. I know we have huge drives now, but come on, why two bit eating monsters that do the same thing. Stan / Desert Wind Productions.

The "2014" versions are new versions of the software. It's like the difference between CS5 and CS6. The new one is (most of the time) significantly better. This isn't any weird screwup, it's just a new version.
You may want to keep the old version around for compatibility, client needs, safety, etc. However, it probably behooves you to use the current version for all of its new features, etc.
