Help with ImageGrabber or Downthemall

**tallpaul11** · September 20th, 2012, 11:44 AM

Can anyone help me with Imagrabber or Downthemall

I've got both installed in Firefox 15.0.01 . Imagrabber seems to only give me an option of Show changelog on the Tools Menu and doesn't activate

Downthemall was working perfectly but now only downloads the thumbnails on a page and not the jpegs behind it.

Thanks

Click the top left box in your FF browser, pull up your list of Add-ons and physically remove ImageHostGrabber, then go onto the Mozilla website and obtain the latest version.

All I can suggest, sorry.

I prefer this beta version, it has more features

imagegrabber-1.6.6.20120106.xpi

How do I open / install an .xpi file?

Thanks!

If you are using Windows, when it asks, you open it with Firefox.

Thanks

for downthemall you need the additional anticontainer plugin:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en/firefo...anticontainer/

this forces downthemall to use specialized command-containers to collect images properly and is necessary if a fullsize image is embedded in an HTML page (like you have with image file hosts like imagebam etc)

As of today March 5, DTA (inc. container) has issues with imagevenue.com: gets htm/php files only.

Current workaround: use flashgot with DTA as chosen dl.machine.
Select command "FlashGotAll" from flashgot menu. Will rework the imagevenue php syntax into working dl links for DTA.

And if u dont already have flashgot, get it, invaluable particular for dl cpl sets from commercial sites, which dont have whole set .zip files (or not in the prefered rez).

cheers

don't have this issue with DTA. and i haven't changed anything recently.

i'm using FF 19.0, DTA 2.0.15 with Anticontainer 1.2.2

but imagevenue itself has some performance problems today. may retry those images which weren't loaded. it can happen with DTA that broken / incomplete images create temporary container files which look like this:

Code:

img.php-{2d3c18a1-b0f7-4160-9d6f-1d52ab94bf64}.dtapart

Can someone explain SLOWLY, and one step at a time?

Thanks.
