thank you, trying that now... a day or so, this download says... which is an improvement over 14ish! maybe the files'll get smaller as it goes and it'll get quicker...? or something?

[tn72338890]

will have to try again tomorrow unless you or anybody has more words of wisdom... and please do ask whatever else i need to explain, if so!

Did you tried downloading by disabling Anti-Virus and Firewall temporarily ??

[tn72338890]

no, i didn't... doing that is scary! maybe i'm paranoid? have had nasty painful virus death before n this is a beautiful new irreplaceable (in more ways than one) laptop upon which an awful lot depends!

[Govardhan.V]

Okay.

Are you using Wireless/ Wifi Internet connection or Ethernet Wired Internet connection ?

[tn72338890]

wireless... digicel, bit glitchy but glad to have it... can plug into the modem but nothing's actually hardwired... i may have answered that crookedly but hope i answered

[tn72338890]

sorry, AM plugged in to the modem

[Govardhan.V]

Did you connected the computer with Ethernet wired connection now ?

[Govardhan.V]

If the Internet connection is good and if you are experiencing slow speed .

Please refer below link :

[Govardhan.V · Accepted solution]

You can try with below steps if you wish :

1)Clear Temp folder .

2) Close all Applications running .

3)Close all webistes opened on browser .

4)Disable Firewall temporarily.

5)Open only Adobe website as it is safe and secured website free from all kind of threats.

6)Then try to download CS 6 Design Standard and check.

Note :  While the Firewall is turned Off . do not open any applications , files or even other websites.

Or if you think it is still very slow and Do not wish to Disable Firewall  , You can try with 3'rd party download managers   like : Internet Download Manager which is more efficient than browser built in downloader .

[tn72338890]

...and power on and off! okay, trying again... now using internet download manager, and yes plugged the cable in... getting a message that says i don't have permission to download form the server (used the link you sent above to download form)... that wasn't coming up before!

[Govardhan.V]

Thank you . I was happy that I was able to assist you .

I'd love to visit Jamaica once , beautiful country, big fan of Chris Gayle will meet him lol

Nothing to do with the Adobe servers. That's an issue on your end, but since you haven't provided any useful technical details like system info, nobody can even begin to advise.
