Impossible to download DMG files with mozilla

When I try to download a .dmg on a Web site, instead of the file goes to my download folder - I get a new tab, open it with a bunch of code/characters. This does not happen with Safari, Chrome or Internet Explorer.

What I can do to solve this problem - or is this something on the end of the web developer. If its side of the web developer - what should do?

Thank you!

Ted

It do for all DMG files uploaded, or only this particular site? Note that, although not a great workaround, when the DMG file opens in a new tab, click this tab, then:

  • File > Save Page as (or

    (> Save Page) (keyboard shortcut: command + S)

  • Select a folder you want to save the file to

You can try to reset all of your Application that addresses the preferences of Firefox:

  • Open your profile folder.

    • If you don't know where he is, in Firefox, go to the topic: support page by typing in your address, or to go to bar:

      • Help (or

        >

        ) > Troubleshooting information.

    • Click on the view file"" button.
  • Make sure that Firefox is closed - click on the menu button

    > Output

    .

  • Remove or rename the mimetypes.rdf file.

Open Firefox and try to download the DMG file again.

  • Cannot retrieve downloaded VeohWebPlayerSetup file with Unarchiver... How can I fix this problem?

    Hi all.

    To download my videos on Veoh, I had downloaded their web player for Mac. But Unarchiver declares that it cannot extract this program. Opening of the finger on the button control too gives no results. What should I do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Dr. Christophe

    If you mean Veoh 3.0 there is nothing to extract. It comes as a .dmg file. DBL-click on the file and run the package.

    Unless of course you have downloaded version .exe Windows that will not be installed at all.

  • Download text files with non-English characters

    I use an Apex page to download text files. Can I retrieve the contents of the wwv_flow_files.blob_content files and convert them into varchar2 with utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2, but the characters like o, to, u become garbage.

    What could be the problem? Characters lost when files are stored in wwv_flow_files or when I do the conversion?

    Some other info:
    * I don't see wwv_flow_files. DAD_CHARSET has the value 'ascii', wwv_flow_files. FILE_CHARSET is null.
    * Try utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2 (utl_raw.cast_to_raw ('aoeu')) returns "aoeu" correctly;
    * NLS_CHARACTERSET setting is AL32UTF8 (not only English ASCII)

    Hello

    Take a look at the csv upload - suggestion required with characters non-English in the csv file , it might help you.

  • Firefox won't download PDF files with javascript:doDownload();

    I just installed Firefox version 9.0.1, hoping that it would solve this problem, but no luck. My bank allows me to download and print my credit in the form of PDF files on their site. I checked the code and the button that I click implements a javascript:doDownload(); function. A small panel that allows me to enter the radius of the page opens. I then click OK and nothing happens. An earlier version of Firefox (version 3.0) had no problem with that and I was able to download and save my bank statements on my hard drive in the form of PDF files.

    Also, please check if it has been updated to work with the latest Firefox. Tools (Alt + T) > modules, click on Extensions to the left, right Add on PDF and find updates or click more and Home Page to go to the website add-on.

  • Download the file with progress data?

    Hello

    I'm looking for a way to download files from a known location, but in a way to have a download progress bar. Is this possible?

    I started watching DataSocket and http GET vi and I managed to download files from the Public folder on my Dropbox (which has a link), but these VI put my app in a hanging state until they complete the download and I don't know how long should take to the end, especially if I start downloading something bigger.

    Is it a VI everywhere that provides progress periodically data? (Possibly speed would be though, but I think, should be calculated growth data and elapsed time.) I plan to have a status update vi for an app of mine (I hate using the USB and copy to the extent of the PC after every update). I wouldn't really care for progress data, if the files would be<1MB, however="" i="" have="" some="" bigger="" files="" which="" should="" take="" longer="" to="" download="" and="" a="" feel="" of="" the="" progress="" would="" make="" it="">

    Thank you

    Don't worry about http, it's a different protocol with a basic goal that doesn't have much to do with the file transfer. FTP is all about file transfers, it's what he does and that's all it does.

    Brian's suggestion is excellent. Take a look at the existing screw and if they do what it takes, fine. If this isn't the case, you can use them as a starting point to create screws that provide feedback you need. But do not forget the initial step of:

    «.. opening to the top of the screw of NOR and save a new copy with a new name... »

  • Download and downloading big files with extensions to the HTML5?

    I need upload and download documents InDesign and the images associated with a server. The files can be very large (sometimes more than 600 MB).

    Is this possible with HTML5 extensions?

    I am currently an external process - called curl, but there is a limitation - ERR_EXCEED_MAX_NUM_PROCESS after 433 calls.

    I think its possible, you can use the MUSEUM as 'ftp', 'ssh2' modules and so on.

    I often use the module ssh2 as the code below:

    (function () {}

    var Connection is require ('ssh2');.

    var conn = new Connection();

    Conn.on ('ready', function() {}

    Conn.SFTP (function (err, sftp) {}

    If (err) throw err;

    sftp.fastPut ('', )

    '',

    {function (Err)}

    If (err) throw err;

    Conn.end ();

    });

    });

    .connect ({})

    host: '',

    Port: 22,

    user name: '',

    password: ''

    });

    }())

  • Whenever I download a file with Firefox, I can no longer go to the new URLS or searches; I have to exit and restart to get it working again.

    I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, SP1
    I tried to reset Firefox & have tried to reinstall it. Neither made any difference.
    It does not matter what type of file I download.
    Once I downloaded all the files, I am unable to connect to other sites, get an error indicating that the site is not found.
    I get the same effect if I try to use a bookmark, or if I type in the URL.

    Try below.

    1. In the address bar, type Subject: config and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
    2. Click on I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue on the subject: config page. A list of parameters must appear
    3. Filter the list by typing in the search bar at top. Enter scanWhenDone. Now you should find the "browser.download.scanWhenDone" preference.
    4. Double-click this preference to set the value to false.
    5. Then, try to download something and see if it still has problems.
