How to download large files from browser
Have tried with IE also but with similar results. Am downloading to a local drive to avoid any LAN issues. There definitely seems to be some sort of problem going on over the past few days with file transfers through the browser. For several days, I haven't been able to upload any file larger than 1MB to my online folders, either through the advanced uploader or the basic uploader.
I very much doubt that it's an issue with my computer -- I have exactly the same internet speed now that I had in the past when Dropbox last performed as it should, I haven't noticed similar problems with other websites since I'm able to download files from other sites , and I've performed a thorough tune-up on my computer updated the operating system, updated the anti-virus software, scanned the computer for malware, cleared out the junk files, removed obsolete entries from the registry, defragmented the hard drive, etc.
I've submitted a help desk ticket to Dropbox but haven't heard back from anyone yet. When I try to upload a file larger than 1MB, everything is fine for a couple of moments and the file seems to be uploading at a reasonable speed, but before it can finish uploading, the progress bar suddenly goes back to a much earlier period and the upload speed drops way down to the point that it initially says even a file just over 1MB will need more than ten minutes to upload which is crazy, since that implies the upload speed has decreased to just bits rather than bytes per second.
After a couple of rounds of this, the updater quits and gives me an error message saying "something went wrong with the advanced uploader" no The basic uploader is no better -- it says that it's uploading the file but never finishes.
It's ridiculous for Dropbox to need more than half an hour to upload a file of only 1. Jeff, I'm having the exact same issue. I have a large folder cut into 2 gig rar pieces. Where previously, I could download files simultaneously, I now can't seem to have more than one downloading, and even then sometimes the single file download fails at some point in the download process.
Sometimes I can resume the download, other times I hit resume and it starts the download from the beginning again. I'm using firefox 42, and it says it's up to date. I changed virus scanners recently, so just to eliminate that from the equation, I completely disable my AV, but I still get the same errors.

Fix them with this tool:. Improve this question. You can't. Download location is determined by the Client. What is purpose of trying to download file to specific folder at user filesystem? The problem is to download the file on the PC in general, not to download it to a specific path. Right now I can only download the file to the browsers cache memory and it's not downloaded on the PC's hard drive. I hope this clarified a bit. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes.

In this section, we will examine how we can programmatically generate content using Web APIs on the browser. Here is a breakdown of what we are about to do:. Here is what the CSV generation script could look like:. The code snippet simply logs the resulting CSV string to the console. First, we define a squareImages filter function for filtering images in the collection with equal width and height.
Next, we define a collectionToCSV higher-order function which takes an array of keys and returns a function that takes an array collection of objects and converts it to a CSV string extracting only the specified keys from each object. Finally, we specify the fields we want to extract from each photo object in the collection in the exportFields array. Here is what the output could look like on the console:. In this example, we will use the Canvas API to manipulate the pixels of an image, making it appear grayscale.
Here is a comparison between an actual image and the corresponding grayscale canvas image. You can learn about Blobs here. Blobs are objects that are used to represent raw immutable data. Blob objects store information about the type and size of data they contain, making them very useful for storing and working file contents on the browser. In fact, the File object is a special extension of the Blob interface. Blob objects can be obtained from a couple of sources:. Here are some code samples for the aforementioned blob object sources:.
It is one thing to obtain a blob object and another thing altogether to work with it. Videos Watch the short video below to learn how to download files from the web.
