Use Download Manager with RapidShare Premium

Posted By Raymond In Category: Computer // Downloads

2007

I’ve been using FlashGet as my default download manager for many years now. I’ve seen FlashGet developed into one of the best download manager so far today. However, I’ve encountered a problem with FlashGet and that made me uninstall FlashGet. I am the type of person who doesn’t like too many software serving the same purpose on my computer unless I have no choice such as having two web browsers.

Problem I faced with FlashGet was, I wasn’t able to download files from RapidShare using queue even though I have RapidShare Premium account. I tried downloading 1 file at a time and queue the rest of the files, but when the first file completes downloading and starts to download the second file in queue, it will only download 4kb. After researching and testing, I’ve found a way to download and queue files from RapidShare using RapidShare Premium account. Now I can download tons of RapidShare links automatically, of course, with RapidShare Premium account.


1. Log in to your RapidShare Premium Zone.

2. Click on the Options button.
RapidShare Premium Options

3. Enable “Direct-downloads” by checking the checkbox and save it by clicking the Save button.
RapidShare Direct Downloads

After you’ve enabled direct-downloads, the file will immediately start downloading when you enter any rapidshare download links on your browser. FlashGet doesn’t work well with RapidShare even though you have Premium account. So I found another download manager software called Orbit Downloader. It is also free and the interface is quite similar to FlashGet.

Orbit Downloader claims to support downloading Flash videos, including stuff from Youtube, Google, MySpace, MetaCafe, DailyMotion, etc. It can also make your downloads from RapidShare.com much faster, safer and more stable. Additionally, Orbit Downloader supports most of file-sharing service websites, including megaupload, badongo, sendspace, sexuploader, yourfilehost, uploading, filefront, 4shared, turboupload, depositfiles, filefactory and much more!

I downloaded and installed Orbit Downloader. I entered 26 rapidshare download links to the queue and it automatically downloaded all 26 files without problems! You can say that Orbit Downloader solved MY problem and may not be useful to everyone. You’re wrong. You can use Orbit Downloader to download Youtube video, Dailymotion video, Metacafe video, Google video, Myspace video, flash video and flash games, rapidshare files and etc… It’s FREE, POWERFUL, EASY TO USE.

      raymond i have enabled this direct download option but it seems my “orbit” will only download 5kb. Without entering that option it’s fine. Is there any option i should enable in my orbit

    • http://www.raymond.cc/ Raymond

      rainbrain, very likely the download is slow because you’ve selected a slow “default” proffered download mirror.

      Go to options again and select the “Preferred Mirror” that’s provides the fastest download speed. You need to try it out to know.

      You can use Flashget todownload from Rapidshare. I use it all the time the key is to use the rapidshare link. not the direct download link (ie: http://rapidahsare.com/sumnumber/sumfile.rar or rar.html) you just give the rapidshare username and password in flashget and you are done. Works real good with firefox and flashgot extension installed :)

    • user

      at least in flashget you have to enable the login option and enter your rapidshare account details, else not all downloads will suceed and you’ll only download a 5kb html file( probably access denied html page )

      when I using internet download manager. 1 problem happen, I have lost very murch traffic of my acc, eg. I only download 5gb, the log show me that I was downloaded 12gb
      I want to know Orbit Downloader has this prolem or not. Thanks
      sorry for my english

    • http://www.raymond.cc/ Raymond

      I didn’t have that problem. Is someone sharing your Rapidshare account?

    • Anton Wibowo

      >> I only download 5gb, the log show me that I was downloaded 12gb
      >> I want to know Orbit Downloader has this prolem or not

      I have the same problem too with Orbit Downloader.
      To fix this problem, you have to go to DOWNLOAD/CONNECTION on PREFERENCES menu and change “Connection to the original URL” to 1 and “Max connections per job” also to 1.

      All downloader software (not only Orbit) always make many connection to speed up the download process, but on Rapidshare this will be problem because if you download 10 MB file and the downloader automatically make 10 connection for that file, Rapidshare will count 10MB x 10 = 100MB. That is why your log on Rapidshare shows 12GB, although you only downloaded 5GB.

      >>> i have enabled this direct download option but it seems my “orbit”
      >>> will only download 5kb. Without entering that option it’s fine.
      >>> Is there any option i should enable in my orbit

      Here are the instructions, you MUST have a premium Rapidshare account to use Orbit with Rapidshare

      1) Launch Firefox 2.0

      2) Install Flashgot – https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/220/ [if you don't already have it]

      3) Install Orbit

      4) Close all your windows, including browser windows

      5) Restart Firefox 2.0

      6) Go to Tools > Add On’s In Firefox

      7) See if Orbit Downloader Firefox Integration 0.40 is shown in the list [if so, great]

      8) Now, with your “Add-On’s” screen still visible in front of you, click “FlashGot”

      9) Click on “Options” for “FlashGot”

      10) Under “Download Manager” find “Orbit” if it’s not already selected [make sure "Orbit" is in BOLD face]

      11) Click “OK” and close your browser

      12) Re-launch your browser

      13) Go to a web page with a Rapidshare link.

      14) Right-click on the Rapidshare link

      15) In the menu which pops up, choose “FlashGot Options” > “Orbit”

      16) You will see a “Create New Download” dialog box appear from Orbit

      17) WAIT for the file size to appear in the BOTTOM LEFT HAND CORNER of the dialog box [may take 5-10 seconds to register]. If the file size which appears has an MB next to it, then you’re good. If the file size is KB instead of MB, then you’re not getting the download properly.

      18) Click OK

      19) Your download should begin

      20) If you don’t follow the instructions this way, Orbit may only download 5KB of the file instead of the full 20MB or 50MB or 100MB [whatever the FULL/REAL file size is]

      Good luck!!!

      Keep in mind that you have to be logged in under _IE_ (yuck..), otherwise it won’t pick it up. I discarded half a dozen download managers because they couldn’t pick up cokies from Opera. Stupid WinInet magic and its devastating influense on programmers…

    • Steven Yaxley

      I tried downloading split rar files from rapidshare using flashget. And I too put the user name/password to each link.
      But when all the downloads done and I tried to unrar the split files, it stopped at some point. The error pop-up says something like “unexpected end of archives”.

      I checked all the file size, they’re all correct.
      And my premium rapidshare account is valid too.

      Why did this happen?
      Someone please help. Thanks in advance.

    • http://n/a Invisible

      I have a Rapidshare Premium account, i would like to download files using Orbit Downloader without logging in to Rapidshare. Are there any ways like i’ll just input my username/password on Orbit Downloader? My reason for this is because It’s not only me who uses the computer im using to download files. If i login to Rapidshare, if they visited the premium page, they might delete some of my files and change details. I dont want that, so my last option now is a download manager wherein all you need to do is input your username, password (which is masked), and when you place the download link, it will automatically download and login. Something like that? because i noticed that you always have to login to rapidshare using your browser before you can download files using a download manager. Are there any solution to this? tnx..

      Cool blog Raymond.. keep it up..

      Hi,

      If you have a rapidshare account and logon with IE.
      FlashGet will recognise the cookie and download a list of files you add.
      It doesn’t work with Firefox… but you can login once and forget about it..

      cheers,

    • mort

      I did logon with IE but Flashget still failed to download the next file in queue. I have to re-download again. Sometime it works right away or sometime after few tries. I guess it is rapidshare problem, not flashget’s. I’ve been using flashget without any problem for a long time. Any suggestion ???

      I’m using Flashget…It is pretty good. All you have to do is enter the direct link and add username and password provided under the advanced tab. It automatically takes in the next link if you have given all the links in a list.

      Rapidshare has one tool for massive downloading (for premium users). It lies under the Tools menu and the name is RapidShare Manager. It\’s at the same time a link checker too. There is no need to abadon FlashGet. I\’m surprised that no-one wrote for this tool.

    • tonyep

      Thanks you very much
      (sorry for my english) also, with download orbit you can use a list of downloads with, in addition, the option in rapidshare.com “direct-download”. The file is just a .txt with downloads links renamed to .olt…

    • Tony

      Raymond,

      First off, thank you for all of the information in this blog.

      I, however, have an issue not covered here yet. It is in regards to Vista run computers.

      I have followed all directions regarding Flashget, Rapget, Orbit and so far, I have had problems downloading files from Rapidshare. I always get a 4kb file. This does not happen to me with my Windows XP Professional computer, but my laptop with Vista is not working as it should. It seems that no matter what I do, whether I use IE or Firefox, the download is always corrupted and the size is always around 4kb. Is there a bug in Vista that simply does not allow download managers to work correctly?

      Thanks in advanced…

      Tony

    • Tony

      Problem resolved….

      Using IE7, it never worked well. However, one step that I did not see posted by Anton Wibowo up top was that we were supposed to login to rapidshare via Firefox to create the cookie. As soon as I did that, it started downloading without a problem…

      Thanks to all for your input in this blog, without any answers , it all got resolved…

    • xpresside

      why not use rapidshare manager -_-\”

      the best and fastest way.
      1) in RS prem setting enable direct download.
      2)copy all the links you want and put them in http://rapidshare.com/checkfiles.html

      3)click check url
      4) on the next page right click downthemall and choose all ur files. click ok and dll like crazyyyyyyyy

    • Jake

      Just to throw another in the mix – Downloadstudio. Its not free but I download a ton of stuff from Rapidshare and I’m very happy with DownloadStudio (www.downloadstudio.com). The only trick is to make sure Rapidshare direct downloading is enabled in your premium account. Thanks, Jake.

      TIP: If you don’t have a Rapidshare Premium Account you can still download all Rapidshare-files automatically with a download manager. Just google for the latest version of ‘rapidshare plus’ (Don’t know the developer’s-site).

      You just paste all your Rapidshare-links, click the download-button and it will start processing the first download. After this first download there is normally a waiting-time of 15 min.
      Rapidshare Plus will RE-try to download the next file every minute untill your waiting-time is over, and than the next, and so on, just until all your downloads are completed. All is done automatically without having to do anything.

      Obviously without a Rapidshare Account this will take a lot longer, but it will do the same as Raymond suggests.

      Use it will sleeping and by the time you wake up, your large downloads are probably done!

      Enjoy!

    • kamote

      I tried Flashget, Orbit, IDM, Tucan..
      Tucan is the best, If you have premium rapidshare acct. Just make sure you are logged off from rapidshare website when you’re enabled in Tucan.
