Why can't I download files properly after Mac OS X 10.6.8 upgrade?

Recently I upgraded to Mac OS X 10.6.8. Now, when I download a file (example:jpeg) it shows up as: Name=Unknown; Kind=Document; Size=Tiny (example 20kb). Any ideas why?

I just now noticed your system version in your topic. Thank you for providing your other system information. Same should be in your profile so that if you have any other problems, you will not have to repeat yourself or the helpers here keep asking you for it.
If you uninstalled all the older versions of flash player on your computer....
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select Disk Utility.
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
Click Repair Disk.
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.
Install flash player, repair permissions again when done and also restart your computer.
If still having issues, you should post in the Adobe forums.

Why can't I download Premiere and After Effects CC on my laptop?

Why can't I download Premiere and After Effects CC on my laptop? I don't have the option for the Creative Cloud apllication on my menu bar as well. It launches Adobe Download Manager instead. Software like Photoshop and Illustrator CC are working fine?
Thanks!

If it doesn't show up your system doesn't support it. It's as easy as that. Refer to the system requirements for the applications.

HT201364 Why can't i download maverick when my mac comes with it preinstalled?

I bought a new Mac Book Pro with OS X Maverick. Why can't i download the installer from App Store?

Yes Mavericks can be downloaded but is it the *right* one is what Tuttle was getting at. Don't take our world for it, take it from Apple:

HT1338 I can't find download files in my Mac. Why?

I use 13 inch MacBook Pro, but I'm not faimliar with Mac OS. Last two days ago, I removed the download folder from the Dock accenditally. After that, I cannot find my downloading files from my mail ever. I'd like to know how can I fix it? Software for my Mac is OS X 10.8.5.

Click the Finder icon -the leftmost- in the Dock at the bottom.
When the Finder window opens, click the Downloads folder to open it.
All downloads should be listed there.
You can rightclick the "Downloads" folder in the sidebar and select "Add to Dock"
to place the folder in the Dock again.
Best.

Why can't I download file from any websites?

Whenever I try to download files from filesharing sites like mediafire, I click the download button and the page appears to be loading and nothing happens.
After several tries, I found out that while the page is loading, it is actually downloading the file because the time it takes for the page to load before the "open" or "save file" windows come out depends on the size of the file. And immediately after I click "save file" the download is done, and I can open whatever I downloaded. The time ranges between 5min to 30min depending on the file size.
Usually the "save file" window will display immediately when I click on the download button, the the fire fox download window will show the progress of the download and % of completion. But no, for me nothing appears in the download window, and I don't get to see the progress of my download until it is apparently "completed" after the webpage finished loading.
I have tried every solution that I know, cleaning my browser history and cookies, resetting firefox, clearing up my computer's registry, even did a clean reinstall of firefox, wiping everything including my bookmarks, but none of these solves the problem. I am also pretty sure that my firefox extension are not the ones to blame as I did do a test download after a clean reinstall, which did not work as well.

My problem is fixed after I set the firefox connection settings from "use system proxy setting" to "no proxy". After setting to no proxy, the downloads happens as it should.
but my question now is what is system proxy? and what is the difference between using these 2 different options?

HT202159 Why can't I download anything from the Mac App Store?

I cannot update apps, or download Mountain Lion. It spent time downloading, supposedly, then after it was finished it said it was unable to do so. Tried it three times, same result.
Never experienced this before.

I need to clarify the problem:
software update returns:
The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.
The Mac App Store update, download new, or resume returns:
The application you tried to download could not be downloaded. Check your internet connection and try again.

HT201318 Why can't I download storage plan after purchase

JUst purchased storage plan and still cannot update some apps. And iPhone is not moving all photos to iPad

You are providing very little information. So, you bought more storage. But what do you mean by "cannot update some apps"? Are you getting any error messages. Update through the itunes app store? Could it be that your iphone has its storage almost full? This has nothing to do with icloud storage. If the phone is low on storage, you'll have to delete some files to make room.
Go to
Settings>General>Usage. This tells how much storage is used on both iCloud and on the device.
As for the photos, we need more info as well. How are you moving photos? Using USB to connect to a computer? Using photo stream? Only some photos are being "moved"? Can you give more info on this as well?

Why can't I download Canon S100 CR2 RAW files into PSE 10?

I am using PSE 10 with a Canon S100 camera. I am successful in downloading all of my jpeg files and RAW CR2 files from my older Canon Rebel, but not with the Canon S100 CR2 Raw files.
When first downloading from the Canon S100 camera into PSE 10 and later doing them manually, I receive the following messages: Nothing imported...files are not supported file types or alread in catalog. File damaged or in a format that cannot be included in the Elements Organizer.
These problems files, by the way, were automatically added to my Window's My Pictures catalog and are perfectly fine.

Thank you for the info. It worked great, once I was
able to get around a second problem that prevented updating
from within the PSE 10 application (error U41M1C212). That
problem was solved by disabling the MS Virtual WiFi Miniport
Adapter (located in the Network and Sharing Center control
panel). It just goes to show me once again, how complex
computer apps are and how much we all have to rely on each
other to get anything to work properly (frustratingly
enough, since the companies we paid good money to for
their problematic software are not very helpful). Thanks
again.

Try opening a CR2 directly from a folder by right-clicking
and choosing open with Photoshop Elements editor, if that
dosent work, update the appliactaion (required for the
S100V)
In the Editor menu click Help >> Updates
Then install amera raw 6.7

Why can't I download apps I have to pay for on to my new iPad Mini. I have had an Apple id for my iPhone for years and have downloaded app to it, no problems. When I try to download apps to my new iPad Mini, it tells me my billing info has to be confirmed. After confirming with same info that is already there it tells me to contact support, no help up to this point.

Could the credit card be expired?
Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

Why can't I download my already purchased music and other files from iCloud, even though I owe money to iTunes for my most recent purchases. Doesn't seem right that they keep me from accessing those files which I've already paid for!

- Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
- Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes
