Help downloading eBook.?

Question

This is my first downloading an eBook and I was wondering how long does it take?

The little popup window that says "downloading.." at the top has been there for at least 10 minutes.

I'm downloading "Their Eyes Were Watching God."

Answer 1

it depends on its size and your connection speed. If it's, say, about 300-400 kilobytes, and you have got a dial up, it can take about 20 to 30 min. 10 to 15 on a DLS. The more the size, the slower is the download.

By what you say it seems that the web site which you are downloading from has bugs or problems. Try once more and contact the webmaster. Sometimes the file is removed, so it can't be reached, so it says "page cannot be displayed".

Answer 2

Quick suggestion: try buying ebooks from sites which email you the entire PDF immediately after purchasing it. That nixes the whole downloading issue right there.
