Steve S Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 I’m having a few problems with a presentation. I’ve uploaded it to my website several times but I can’t seem to get a decent download. The uploaded file size is exactly the same as the host file but when I download it I only get part of the zip file, and how much I get varies each time. I’m beginning to wonder if it is due to the machine I’m working on (although I can download other files just fine). This is getting to be very frustrating.Would some kind person do me the favour of attempting to download this file and let me know if you have the same problems? File location: (right click > save target as)www.wildsight.co.uk/pfolios/slideshows/living_land.zipThanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronwil Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 SteveTwice I selected "Save" for download and like Ken the zip came down in a flash and when trying to open told to try again as the download was incompatible.On the third occasion I selected "Open" and everything went like clockwork and the resulting sequence was well worth watching.Good luckRon [uK] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alrobin Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Steve,I tried to download it several times, and each time the download started, ran for about 5 seconds, and then quit. It could also be a problem with your web host. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
