I'm having probs downloading any filters myself. FF opens, but it just opens to the last filter I was working on. It's been happening since Friday or so. Is this just an FF server problem or something ?

jffe,

What about downloading via the built-in library browser (old-style Filter Library)? The same problem?

To switch to the old-style library, go to Tools > Options > Online tab and select the "Use the built-in library browser (obsolete)" option.

----I didn't try it that way. I tried downloading a couple different filters over the weekend from their pages, say 3 times, and no luck, FF would just open to the last filter I had worked on, but it seems to download them now. No idea why it did that, and not really a big deal to me personally. Might be something to look out for, or look into is all.

O.k., it's doing it again, but, I found the filter I click on (from it's webpage) gets downloaded and filed, it does NOT open when FF opens. Which makes no sense, since I haven't changed anything in FF, and there's been no updates to the FF program in well over a month now. Any ideas why this is happening ? Not a really big deal, but it has caused me much confusion, and is a new and unecessary hassle really.

Same thing today. If I click on a filter to download from it's page, I get nothing, FF opens to the last filter I was using, and the new filter I want to check out is NOT downloaded. I have to go in and use the old method to get a new filter to download.

I still can't download filters, as a matter of fact I bought the software last week, and were just able to download a few filters at the beginning.

Filters won't open in the program, and if I try the built in option to download I only get an error message saying that it can't run Filter Forge because it is already running, no download at all.

Any help??? smile:?:

Jffe and Aylah, do you use Internet Explorer for downloading filters? Our web team say they've fixed a server error in handling IE requests -- please try again.

----I'm running IE 6, and it still doesn't work. I click on a filter to download, and it opens FF to the last filter I was using.

Try to clear your browser's cache.
Space... it seems to go on and on forever. But then you get to the end and a gorilla starts throwing barrels at you.

You've probably deleted FF cookies...
Click the link "Filter Forge Is Already Installed" on that error page and retry to download the filter - this should help you.
