Safari cannot download files?

Pete Cunningham 12 years ago updated 12 years ago 3
I've set up Photo Transfer on my iPad2, connect with my iPod touch using IP address, select photos, then get error message on iPod saying Safari cannot download files. Any help?
Hi, I'm surprised no one has answered this simple question as yet, but answered others first, instead. - maybe they missed it, as they also didn't reply to my latest question over 8 days ago, at this link;

Anyway, it sounds like you are transferring from one iDevice to another.
If this is the case, you don't use the browser for this on either iDevice, instead, you are allowed to download the photo transfer app to all, and any, iDevice(s) you own, for free, if you use the same iTunes account it was originally paid for, on the first iDevice download, to download the app to the other iDevices.
(in other words, input the same eMail address and password, for your iTunes account, to all iDevices, used when the app was paid for, the first time)

Then, choose the option in the app that transfers from one iDevice to another iDevice.

There's a help section in the app, explaining this, and a video you can view showing how to, if you want to see it being done "before your eyes" :)

To see all the help info, I think you need to have the iDevice connected to the Internet.

A quote from the help section, within the app;
"Note: To transfer photos between two devices both must have this application installed and running."
Dear Pete,

Thanks for posting your question here, I will be happy to help you.

Are all your photos in a JPG, GIF or PNG format? Our app only allows those formats in order to transfer, so if they are in something different then they will not transfer. Make sure you keep the app launched on both devices when attempting to transfer.

Warm Regards,

Dear Pete,

I hope you were able to solve your problem, the information provided by 'Ebcejio' was very good (Thanks @Ebcejio!). If you are trying to transfer from device to device then you need the app installed on both devices instead of using safari. If your devices are setup with the same iTunes account then you only need to pay for the app once to install it on both.

I hope this helps. Let us know if you need more assistance.

Kind regards,

Enrique
