So, I've downloaded LF at last (had to use firefox instead of IE). Now, can I burn it onto a disc?

Thank God for the org. It's a damn shame I have to come here for help downloading instead of Louts Flower, but I digress.

I'm getting a message that states, "File wasnt set or it doesn't exist"

What does this mean?
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance to anyone that can assist....

me either.. so you got the MP3 files opened and working now?
I can listen but can't get them into iTunes.


If you saved them in your desktop files, you can open your itunes file and drag them from your desktop into the itunes. I believe that is how my son taught me how to do it. I will try downloading them from the mp3 files, like that when I get home and see how that works.

HELP! I'm on a Mac and I downloaded all 3 albums. I was unable to unzip Lotus Flow3r but nothing else! I get an error that says:

"Unable to unarchive "Mplsound_Mplsound_Mplsound.zip" into "Desktop".
(Error 1 - Operation not permitted.)



I get the same message when unzipping on a mac too.

You are just doing a GET here.
Log in to the site and use the normal approach to the download.

The normal approach didn't work for me. I had to download the Firefox software.
I tried at home and at work. Only when i used firefox did the download work for me.....

No, it's a damn shame you have to come here for help. This should be EASY and EFFORTLESS.

I still can't download a full MPLS zip file (only tried the WAV). I've repeatedly only gotten a less than 200MB file. I'm assuming it is the same problem everyone else has been having. The file is just not complete, which is why it will not unzip.

For those of you using a Mac mac that are having trouble unzipping the WAV downloads, try BetterZip: http://www.apple.com/down...erzip.html

I have to agree with you. If it weren't the org I would still be looking at a blue circle on my screen last night and this morning.

I stated earlier, the site has potential. I hope they make improvements QUICK!!

Thanks to all that have replied and have gotten me thru Lotusflower. It's taken 2 days, but I've finally burned all three disks.

Well for LF zip file, (I am on PC) is instead of trying to unzip the folder, I just opened it up so I could see inside, from there I could see all the wave files which I just did a drag/copy to a folder I made on my desktop. Not sure what the deal is but unzipping it normally is just not working. MPLSS dl is still corrupt for me, but maybe that's because the file is getting blasted?? Good luck

Edit BTW: Has anyone downloaded a clean zip file for MPLS SOUND, 3 trys here no joys!

I have managed to download 2 Albums but cannot get MPLSound to download

Keep getting

! C:\Documents and Settings\Paul\My Documents\My Music\My Music\Mplsound_Mplsound.zip: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged


Anyone know why? I did the same as on the other 2. Tried it before downloading Elixir.

Hi,

UK user, very tired and exasperated.

No matter how many times I try, the downloaded MP3 files (all exceeding 100mb) for all three albums fail to unzip.

I'm using WinZip 12.0, IE 7, my PC has a 2.20GHZ processor and I'm running 3GB of RAM

This is the error message I receive.....

-----
WinZip
-----
Cannot open file: it does not appear to be a valid archive.

If you downloaded this file, try downloading the file again.
-----
OK Help
-----


All other site features work just fine.

after i downloaded lotus i extracted it, then renamed the extracted file ___.zip which turned that file into a zip file, i then extracted that, same for Elixer, but no matter how many times i've downloaded MPLSound it will not extract i get, 'the archive is in unkown format or damaged', does somebody know what to do?

i get the feeling he's sat there laughing at us!
