Ok so Im trying to download ipsw files on my PC (windows 7) so i open the browser find the ipsw that i need and when i press download it just keeps loading and never starts to download. I tried Firefox, Chrome, even Internet Explore but it still wont download, not even come up. I tried to download the ipsw on my laptop and it worked great. now my laptop died so i need help with my PC.:confused:
Thank You
 
Did you right-click to download the link? Depending on your browser, just clicking it might cause the browser to try to display the file as opposed to downloading it.
 
yeah i right clicked on all browsers that i used. I also tried to open the link in a new tab and it still didnt work
Hmmm. You're on a PC? Could it be anti-virus software?

Could you download curl and run it in a command line?

The command would be something like:
Code:
curl http://the_complete_link_to_the_file.

Edit: or, could you post the link? Maybe I could zip it up for you.
