Why do I get redirected to a blank page when I try to download .dmg files?

I have been having real difficulties for about the last 2 months downloading .dmg files. Instead, I have often been redirected to a blank page, which takes a while to load and the downloads window in my Safari browser does not recognize the download at all. If I try to "save target as" I simply get a useless HTML file. Anyone else have the same problem?

Make sure your software is up to date. Click your Apple menu / Software Update...

    I am directed to a blank page when I try to download Whatsapp. How can I get it?
    Ive tried going to the App Store direct and also tried using the link on the Whatsapp site. Same problem each time - a blank page.

    Whatsapp is a phone app, however, look at these links:

  • Can someone please help me figure out why I keep getting the "can not reach server" when I try to download the ebook? This is happening with Adobe Digital Editions.

    When I try to download the ebook I bough, the Adobe Digital Reader shows the following message: "can not reach server".  Can someone please help me with this?
    TO be precise, it says "licensee server communication problem"
    Thank you

    The thread running through your explanation has to do with connectivity to your server. (iCloud out of the blue asking for password, unable to message your boyfriend, unable to access e-mail). You said that you boyfriend restart his device and then the two of you were able to then imessage. My best advice for you would be to go to settings to reset to reset network settings. Once this has been done you then will need to enter the name and password of your wifi. ONce this is done you then can attempt to check to see that all passwords are enter correctly.
    Good luck.

  • Why do I get only a black screen when I try to download PDF files?

    Why do I get only a black screen when I try to download PDF files?  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader.
    This problem just started a few weeks ago.
    I am still using Snow Leopard.
    I have tried using Firefox instead of Safari, but still get the black screen.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Why do I get a conversion failure every time when I try to merge documents together???

    Why do I get a conversion failure every time when I try to merge documents together???

    Hi mdrhine,
    I'm sorry that you've been unable to merge files. Let's see what we can figure out.
    Are you unable to merge any files? How large are the files that you're trying to merge, and how many are you trying to merge at once?
    If you're merging more than a few files, or those files are particularly large, ttry merging those files in smaller batches. If one or more files is causing the conversion failure, merging in smaller batches should help you isolate the problematic file or files.
    I look forward to hearing back from you with some details about the files that you're trying to merge.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Why does the organizer no longer recognize my camera when I try to download?

    Why does Photoshop Elements Organizer no longer recognize my camera when I try to download?  Is there a new way to downolad?

    Detective" for $30.  Is this something worth investing in or should we be
    able to solve this ourselves?   My brain hurts.
    No it is not worth investing in this because it is a very expensive way of getting viruses. These detectives and those who say they can find the fault on your machine by installing their software are bunch of hackers.
    If your camera is not recognized then it suggests that either your USB is faulty or the cable linking the two is faulty.
    Can you connect anything else like a flash drive to your USB port that you are using for your camera and is it recognized?

  • Firefox presents blank pages when I try to access my bank on the internet. I must click on "allow" several times to get through.

    The bank page appears blank with the text "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page". I must then click on "allow" to work through a series of blank pages before reaching the bank page itself.
    This has not occurred with any other URL so far.

    Thanks for the feedback. As the link was a answer provided by a support person, it was specific to the platform of the user (asking the question). I should have picked up on that.
    Rest assured that the support articles on the Firefox Help website provide the answers specific to the platform and version of Firefox it detects the user is running.
    Thanks again.

  • Why don't I see the popup option to RUN when I try to download a file under Firefox that I get in Internet Explorer which is where I turn to to download a program ?

    In Internet Explorer I always get the popup options RUN, SAVE, CANCEL. In Firefox I only get SAVE & CANCEL. When I click SAVE a "binary" file gets downloaded but I don't know what I'm supposed to do with that.
    Thanks for your help

    Firefox only allows you to save executable files. If you want to add an option to run them you can use the OpenDownload² add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/opendownload-10902
