Rapidshare apps,tips,tricks,etc!

[RONATOR]

I have seen several members complaing about the limit at rapidshare. Most of you proably know this, but if you are like me on a DSL connection, an easy way around this is but just shutting off your modem for about 30 sec and then restarting it. This is kind of a pain because you have to wait for your modem to reset, but when your modem restarts, it will assign a new ip address. You can then reconnect to rapidshare and download w/ the limit restrictions gone. One you reach the limit restrictions again, just follow the same proceedure. And wala, you can continue downloading.

Not sure if this will work w/cable connections or if is true w/all DSL connections, but it works great for mine.

[KanMan]

With cable i think you keep the same IP, Ive tried multiple times before. Even using command prompt to flush the isp doesnt help it just reassigns the same ip.

slower for dsl - works
faster for cable - doesnt work

[demen23]

thank you for this use post i been had dsl and i reset it a couple time for various reason but i never thought to user on rapid share Ty sir, time to go download some naughty things :D

[dizturbd]

Thanks, I've tried many rapidshare bypasses and none seem to work. I'm too stupid to understand proxies and can't ever get those working. Anyway, thanks. I'll try it out later and let you know if it worked.

[Hard Drive]

Unfortunantly I have cable :(

[Swann]

:016: Thanx for the info, I'll check into this.

[Hard Drive]

Interesting, will give this program a go later.

[KanMan]

Nice.... your always bringing the fresh new programs.

[bugoff]

Interesting little program, works great, thanks for the post.

[rocky509]

I found a way that ya dont even need a RS account. people always complain about waiting but this way works.
http://khongbiet.com/rapidshare/
use this link. copy and paste the RS file ya want to dl in the bar and click the button and ya get your premium link. its working for me.:lol:

[supraman_2]

I will be happy if this works. If so nice job.

[Hard Drive]

Wow... this looks good. Hope it works

[supraman_2]

Looks like it is working. Great stuff rocky.

[Ptit Philou]

That works fine for me ! Thanks Rocky for this great tip !!!

[rocky509]

No problem guys..Just sharing..

[Jiff]

do0d this is great - thnx muchly :D

[Mr.T]

that's awesome for single-file downloads... thnx.

[supraman_2]

It let me get multiple files at the same time T.

[armanisuit]

thanks for the heads up, i have yet to try it.
this is the message i get as of right now

"I'm moving to a new host, so please be patient."

[KanMan]

Nice work man. I'll try it later once my pass is dead

Thanks a lot for the link, and it works like a charm! :D

damn this is awesome, finally got to use it and am downloading rapidshare urls that i had put off to the side. Nice find and thanks for sharing, I just hope it lasts a long time.

[ThaSpitefulWun]

welp... it's down... they need a new premium account to route you all through again... sick find though!!!

[Ragnorak]

its been down for a while now.

[wetskin]

I think this is a clever but simple peice of programming where the guy has a RS account and uses that to access the real download url and give it to us folks.

Maybe a small python script using the clientform module ought to do the job.

I bet we could be enterprising and do the same using our passes too. Any ideas and volunteers as I am short on time at the moment.

Wettie.

[Italguido]

damn, i get busy for a lil bit, and miss this

[Notatall]

this is insane! thanks a lot!

[diodo2004]

doesn?t work for me!! :( looks that is down

[BassMan]

Fuckin Awesome program thanks!
Ill post anything interesting I find.

[synergy]

Sounds like a great tool. I will d/l and check it out. Thanks!

[Ragnorak]

Thanx for the info. This will makesa searces easier }; )

[keano]

Wow, thanks alot for this nifty little program Mr. Funk, works like a charm, much appreciated. You've just Made the trip through rapidshare a whole lot easier Take Care Mr. Funk. :D

[dougie04]

man, if this does what i'm hoping it does, thank u very much!!! if not i still thank you and the sputter gutter community

[trojan23]

i give it a 5 out of a 10........

[puck-u2]

The world is filled with dogooders....we all know that...when unknown persons report my postings and the rapidshare admin deletes them ..I try to upload again...but they do not appear after the DL is complete....I have to assume my reposting of the same file is now somehow 'blocked' by some tag on the reupload....

Has anyone else encountered this...and is it possible to do it...WITHOUT posting to a different service.....

[Mr.T]

i think they used to check file-size? add a small picture to the upload and rename it and you should be fine.

[puck-u2]

T.........worked like a charm.......thanks..........you are STILL the man....

[Welsh Maximus]

I`m sure I can recall some prog (or a website perhaps?) that could search RS for files (Vids,pics,music,whatever) for you using key words you`d obviously typed in.

I haven`t got such a proggy though and nothing bookmarked either...so does anyone know what the hell I`m referring to? :065:

[funk]

you mean this? ;)

[Welsh Maximus]

Doesn`t look familiar,but certainly looks good...thank you Funk :067:

[DD313]

What about www.rapidshared.org? Posted this site a few months (or years? lol ) ago. But it's not that good. You can also try www.rapidsearch.com

[Welsh Maximus]

Thanks Double D,pretty sure rapidshared.org was the site I was thinking about :067:

[elmar]

Just one more hint: here (http://newzfind.com/) you find mostly RS + RC links.

A bunch of shit and good stuff and .. ahh .. everything.
But be warned: this could blast your harddrive ... :065:

For searching more specifically add the following for example:
.../search/?ff=search&subject=shower
http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys3/duschsmilie_2.gif

or like that:
.../search/?ff=search&subject=shower+wet
http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys3/badewanne_2_2.gif

and a last variant:
.../search/?ff=search&subject="Jordan Capri"
http://www.my-smileys.de/smileys3/dancing_geek.gif


Hope this helps and you will not get lost :006:

[Ragnorak]

It would appear that Rapidshare has once again modified itself to render 3rd party applications ineffective at downloading files off their servers.

I was using RapGet Ver 1.26 to download rapidshare files however ever since the change this is no longer working.

Can anyone recommend a new application that works with the new rapidshare system?

And perhaps we can keep updating this thread with the latest applications that work with rapidshare.

Thanx }; )

[boob123]

Heres two handy tools:

For uploads:

http://rapidshare.com/en/rapiduploader.html

Link Checker:

http://rapidshare.com/en/checkfiles.html

They haven't got a tool for downloading as of yet, but I have heard Flashget works like a charm, although I'll wait till Rapidshare can modify the script on Rapidget so its compatible with .com.

[Parker]

I found this prog on another site. I haven't tried it yet, but I did DL it and will try it in the near future. So give it a try yourself.

Beating Rapidshare.com program only works for Rapidshare.com not Rapidshare.de files

click here http://rapidshare.com/files/6509274/Rapid.com_leecher-slaughter.rar

[Ragnorak]

I have Flashget and since its a download manager its im-compatible if you dont have an account.

[boob123]

I have Flashget and since its a download manager its im-compatible if you dont have an account.

Sry I assumed you had an account :D .

[Ragnorak]

heh, if i had an account i'd be using the purpose built download manager that Rapidshare provided }; )

[gorbi]

heh, if i had an account i'd be using the purpose built download manager that Rapidshare provided }; )

.de has rapidget, .com only has an ************************.

I was using rapget and it stopped working also, but I had to going into the options menu of the account and click the "direct download" option.
Since you don't have an account I guess you're out of luck.

[Parker]

I take it that no one has tried the porgram that I posted a bit higher up in the thread. I se that I'll have to try it myself first. If it does get around the DL limit at RS.com I'll let you peeps know.

[link85]

You can try usdownloader as well, it works very fine. Find it at this url : http://www.dimonius.ru/dusd.php

[Ragnorak]

Sorry, haven't had any time to try it out Parker. Been busy helping my friend move to his new house }: )

[Ragnorak]

I tried your app link85, its works with the new rapidshare system, however it doesnt automate all the downloads.

It appears that if the file is too big then it will prompt you to look at an image and enter the download code manually.

Anyone know of any apps which can download from rapidshare without the need for any input save for entering the download link?

Much appreciated }; )

[pifpaf]

i dont know

[hardegin]

Thanks for this...was wanting to know how to do.

[RAZORMAID]

I can bypass the awful 180+ minutes between downloads since my IP is dynamic, so all I do is shut off the browser and modem for a few seconds, then reconnect, go to the rapidshare url and start downloading again.

The fucking bummer is, sometimes a download crashes and if I'm nowhere near the pc, it stays that way till I come back and have to start over since the download doesn't continue from where it left off. This is annoying when the file is 100mb in size and the crash happens at 75mb.

Is there a program that retains what is downloaded and can continue from where it left off?

[Swann]

Most download managers can, but I think only RS premium accounts support dl managers.

[zebulon]

I have to by pass my dlm to be able to download rapid share files

[carlo_scute]

I use free download manager for megaupload(free account), but it doesn't work for free rapidshare accounts.

[BigDaddy_GFS]

I have DL managers for RS and MegaUpload. No real probs with either of them. Except Mega Up sometimes locks up during uploads.

[BassMan]

just a heads up:
to change your IP you dont have to always uninstall the modem and set it up again, just open the command prompt and type:
ipconfig /flushdns
--enter
ipconfig /release
--enter
ipconfig /renew
--enter

after this just make sure the cookie from rapidshare is deleted before trying again.

[RAZORMAID]

I don't actually uninstall the modem, I just close the browser, turn off the modem for a few seconds then switch it back on. Entire process takes 7-8 seconds.

I download from megaerotic using Flashget...so far, so good, same process bypasses any limits there.

[hixxy]

I have a RS premium account and i use Free Download Manager. I just drop about 40 links into it and it downloads them all for me.

[ÜberDork]

Here's another trick: just buy a €6.99 EUR monthly subscription.

I used to play all the games too, then decided it was worth 30 cents a day to gain my sanity back and have essentially unlimited DLs whenever I wanted.

Yep, plus you have the advantage of using download managers and multiple simultaneous downloads. Considering the WEALTH of quality material available on RS (software and complete movies), that fee is negligible.

[Random Bob]

I always renew my rs account. for the amount I download - its totally worth it.

[BassMan]

I agree its well worth it but Im sure sometime we might find these tricks in use among the non rapidshare users. Me being once one of them. By all means having a rapidshare account is the very best thing.

[Mr.T]

you mean RS actually sells accounts?!?! i might have to look into that. ;)

I paid £4.66 for an account last September i think, havent had to pay for one since coz i get so many RS points, i currently have 86,735 points so theres atleast 8 more months free and obviosuly i will get more points during that time.

Aslong as you have stuff to share you will only ever have to buy it for the first month

[suiko]

nice thanks for sharing this.

[psychoegg]

Don't use stuff-it expander for RARs... it's crap. D/L UNRAR or another extracting program for OSX. It'll probably open then.

[Swann]

have you tried renaming the file extension to one of the known video formats?
i.e. change .rar to .wmv or .avi , etc. etc.

I have seen this done to files for a number of reasons.

[durcam]

[Junkboxy]

Same as Swann: Sometimes files are mis-extensioned before uploading.

Get FileX (MU (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/18273/filex);VT (http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/26931&vid=207894)) dude. You just drag the mystery file's icon onto FileX, and it tells you what kind of file it really is.

[Swann]

I'm not a Mac user so I can't speak to this, however.......
Does this guy at macupdate tell it straight or not?
Oh come on!

I go to Terminal.app and type "file" and the name of my file - and this app is supposed to make it easier?

HOWWWWW? (Version 1.0)

[durcam]

Most Mac users avoid the terminal like the plague :) , it's great , but a pain in the ass , that's why there are so many throw away apps for Macs that you use only once and never see again , when you could just use the Terminal , but thx......

[Junkboxy]

..yeah it's easier. You put FileX in the dock. Any file - on the Desktop or in a Finder window - you just drag-n-drop onto the FileX dock icon; program doesn't need to be already open. It opens up a window in a couple seconds saying "PDF document, version 1.3" or whatever..
http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/9c39e9515d.jpg (http://www.freeimagehosting.net/)

Its drag-n-drop versus opening the Terminal and typing a long-ass sentence.

[durcam]

[StormShadow]

Hello all! I just recently upgraded my internet connection from DSL to "High-Speed" and it's been working well. My question is about d/ling links from the RapidShare & MegaUpload filehosts. Speed tests show that I am able to get a 6MBPS d/l speed, and while I do get close to full d/l speed using MegaUpload (733kbps) I only get half the speed when d/ling any Rapid links. My PC will let me d/l 2 Rapid links simultaneously (at around 300kbps each) which is ok, but is there a way to get the Rapid links to d/l at full speed like the MegaUpload ones? I've seen a few "download accelerators" on a google search, but was wondering if any of you here currently use one or could recommend one that is easy & safe to use. Thanks! :D

[ÜberDork]

Internet Download Manager is a good one.

[hixxy]

I use Free Download Manager

[hixxy]

Take this little App to keep your Links alive:

http://rapidshare.com/files/68997725/LinkAlive-v2.01.hix.rar

Sadly, it is in German

Just paste your Account Data on top

copy the links, then click on "Links aus der Zwischenablage einfügen", then "Dateien anladen beginnen"

It will only load 1 KB of each file and the File will get the current date.

Very Traffic friendly

[RAZORMAID]

Does this add another 90 days of life to the link after it's been applied?

[maxtor]

onlyseeing this now does it work even now??

[hixxy]

I applied it to all my links and now they all have a last download date as today and none have been deleted so yes it does add another 90 days to the file life

[Mr.T]

I've seen this proggie talked about on a lot of forums and it seems to be working.

[hixxy]

Yeah ive posted it on 3 other forums :)

[Jeef]

It seems you can no longer download (or see the screenshot) at the original link posted. Anyone know if it can be downloaded anywhere else?

[patrick_bateman]

am I being thick?

How do I do part 1? - Search the entire google directory...

[bozo99583]

Don't like RS. Total pain for everyone else if you post something. Try mediafire.

[xjrk2358]

i say every1 should post with megaupload.. it easy and faster than RS

[excalibur01]

great work thanks for sharing

[shinobix69]

wow, thanks for the cool tips well definitely try it out

[ankitsranade]

You might want to try jdownloader. Its realy good

I don't know which works but thanks anyway. I'll try it later.

What is teh beef against RS - I get peeved when I see Meagrotic or Letitbe links myself. Mainly because i have no account;s there LOL

Best thing is to get a subscription! Not that expensive!

[bluhbleh]

thanks for the tips, been always using rapidshare without premium account tho..

go with megaupload

Great advise everyone. I hadn't heard of it before. Even the free site allows a lot of dls. Thanks again...

I think the same

[oronhey]

I think the amount for rapidshare account is a great deal especially if you like to download tons of stuff. Screw the headache and just pay up.

[Godfather_XXX]

RapidShare Rules! Worth every penny. Buy the annual subscription and you really get a bargain.

[koefnu]

thanks!!!

[frisk_frost]

http://rapidshit.com is 'nothing'. It is worse than rapidshare

[TheBT]

Best way to use rapidshare is to pony up the money and get a premium account....if you actually upload pics/vids/whatever you can generate enough points to earn a free month on a consistent basis. It's definitely worth the money.

[rawrzzz]

thanks

[hmika]

rapidshit is useless.

[Trip]

thx for the links

[s_hope850]

Thanks

[5rohit5]

It is better to buy premium account.

[ELKMAN69]

Thx for the info going have to do some research thx

[edho]

If you are patient enough, you can use the free rapidshare account.

[contorto]

Thanks thats indeed usefull

[contorto]

A question. If you buy a premium account, you give away your data. Can someone/ a company ( for copyright reasons ) come after you threw this hole in security. With a valet they could get all the information they need and don´t have to go over the hard way finding out over your ip-adress???????

[s777speedracer]

Rapidshare SUCKS!!! I really like Mediafire. I find that you can download a lot without having to wait.

[hitman1234]

looks good thx

[FlashSpazzbo]

I've been using jDownloader (http://jdownloader.org) for a while now, and it's effing awesome!

It'll queue up your downloads from more download services than I can count, and automatically download them. It'll also auto-extract archives. It's an amazing program.

And I have no connection with jDownloader other than I'm a highly satisfied user of their free program.

[kssteve2003]

which is easiest to use of the novice like me?

[hixxy]

Rapidshare is, and always will be my No 1 :)

[pepel13]

Is these tricks still working if I have a fixed IP?

Thanks in advance. (Didn't read the whole thread, sorry if someone had already asked)

[AdamBasenberg]

I have to agree with the crowd of folks making the argument that paying for the service is the best way to go. Are you really gonna miss the 50 cents/day?

[bacarey121]

I'm another one who got tired with trying to second-guess RapidShare methods and find tricks and workarounds.

Splashed out on a subscription after much deliberation and never regretted it. Given the sheer amount of stuff on there and how quickly it can be obtained it can pay for itself pretty quickly.
