what does the following error message mean:
Failed to save ‘C:\Green_Gym_Part2-iPhone.m4v’ locally.
451 Transfer aborted. Broken pipe

gasparschott, I’ve never wanted to use it as local file manager myself, sorry…
And I cannot find the ‘local mode’ option either…

Sorry I can’t be of help here – and just to explain: I’m merely the person who wrote this tutorial – the addon as well as the FAQ page are by Mime Čuvalo, see links at the top, first paragraph.

The faq page says that fireFTP can be used as a local file manager. The instructions say to go to Tools->Options->Interface->Layout->Local Mode, but when I do, there is no option for “Local Mode” visible. Is this a Windows-only feature, or was the option dropped at some point? (Either, way, I suppose the faq page needs to be updated.) I’m using both OSX 10.4 and 10.6, with FF 3.5.8.

Thanks.

Len,
sorry, not sure what is going on there… I’m not an expert at interpreting the logs, I’m afraid… could it be that it’s a temporary problem due to the version of browser you are using?
I’ve noticed in the past that occasionally an update to FireFox caused problems, more like glitches with certain addons. Usually the next update would fix it.

Used to be able to connect. But recently I have had trouble. Keep getting the following message. Any ideas?

not sure what’s going wrong there… sounds strange. Have you tried going via the addons.mozilla.org site?
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60
Migth work by going directly through firefox? Good luck :)

After downloading FireFTP I get a message at the top of the window saying the download has been blocked. I click on the Autoriser button (I’m in France), but when I restart Firefox FireFTP has not been installed, it doesn’t appear in my Tools menu.
Can u help?
Cheers
Andy
