Re: Is anyone else having trouble uploading? |
The ordinary way. Do you think I should switch to ftp?
(sorry that I am such an idiot)
(oh yeah, and I just tried again a couple hours ago and again it failed).

Re: Is anyone else having trouble uploading? |
Yes. The beauty of the ftp method is that if you have uploaded 99 megabytes and then you lose your connection, you don't have to start back at square one; those 99 megabytes are still sitting there on the server. The next day (or whenever) when you connect again and re-start the file transfer, your ftp program will give you the option of starting from scratch or
resuming. You will choose to resume, and the rest of the megabytes in the source file will be appended to the end of the file on the server.
You will need to install an ftp client on your computer. The free program WinSCP works well for me.
