Rapidshare nOOb

PAU

Hi guys,

I just got the 30 euro for 180 days package from Rapidshare but I seem to be having trouble downloading files.

Im using a Download manager but can't seem to download multiple RAR files at once.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Which download manager? Some have different names for same functions.
It would help us (to help you) if we knew which tool you are using.

Can you import the list of files into the app to begin with?

Usually you highlight the files in it that you want to start downloading and click on the Button.
The number of files that are then beginning to download (at any one time, together) is specific to the number stated/selected in the "options" section of the app.

Lets say there is 8 RAR links,I can only do them one by one,I thought I could do them all together.

Sorry for being a dummy but I heard Rapidshare is the way to go instead of Torrents.

Try the "Downthemall" firefox plugin...

Its free and pretty class.

You first put your login details for rapidshare in where I have sprayed black paint in the pic below.



Then right click, add site and put in your login/pass.



After that copy and paste all the links you want to download and go file/import/Import lists of URLs from clipboard

Some download managers make you highlight the files you require, to a seperate list elsewhere with in the app. A seperate queue of sorts.
Is there anything in the app that references a queue ability?

Try Rapget (free on the net) also. Its very easy to use.

Rapget doesn't work anymore due to that new captcha thingy Rapidshare have put in place...

Used to be a top notch piece of software though.

Didn't know about any new functions.
I used to use it but six months a go I switched to "Internet Download Manager" (Click here). Its one you pay a once off fee for.
Never looked back.

:eek: !!!! NOT TRUE I'm using it right now

OP this is all you need to do :

Go to the rapidshare web site
go to account settings
check the box to enable direct downloads
save
Job done all will work fine

Edit: I'm begining to think the net is closing in on RS downloads, 10gb limit perday now, 10 download limit on anonymous uploads etc etc

Have you tried Rapidshare Manager, its rapidshares own downloader, just login with your premium login details in the program and then add multiple links

Yeah tried that too Nick, can't get it to install on XP for some reason?. Even though I have my .net framework upto date and all.

Damn you mofo's...I still have to put every link into a browser manually!! :mad:

Feelgood

Yep install failed again on Rapidshare Manager...

"Exception has been thrown by target of invocation"

Anyone care to put that into normal English for me??
