Items not downloading

Post by Bastad »

I was having problems using Flashgot with my Firefox browser. I would click on "Flashgot Selected" which would ask me which folder to download the images in, after selecting the desired folder, nothing would happen. I waited a while and nothing continued to happen. I then did a complete factory reset on my PC (had major issues) and reinstalled Firefox and Flashgot and I am having the same issues. Can you tell me how to fix this please?
Thanks

Same here. Seems to be a regression from last FashGot update

Were does item checked (choosen), or is the "choose all items by default" selected?
There was a bug which caused the "choose all items by default" to be always enforced, even if not selected, and maybe the fix is what is confusing you, sorry.
Good luck and let me know.

Same problem here. Flashgot was working fine. Firefox did an update of some sort. Now Flashgot works the same except the files don't actually download. Just nothing. Tried to delete Flashgot and reload, but it didn't help.

I tried changing settings and nothing worked.

Could you show me a screenshot of the file chooser before you hit its "OK" button?

Yes, that's it, Giorgio. I had the post in Seamonkey thread about this problem.

I tried again and now I see the videos are not all selected by default as they used to be. I clicked the Select All button and they download as they should.

This is a good fix as now I can select only the modes I want. Before I wasn't able to deselect and reselect only a few very readily. Or didn't know how.

Thanks for your answer.

To readers, the Select All button was in lower left corner as I recall. The window pops up with all the checkboxes empty now, and clicking Submit or whatever leaves you with an empty Download Manager window.

I don't know if this same cause that broke downloads a few days ago, then was fixed with 11, then broke again with this release. But works fine if you select something. :)
