How to set the Scheduler?

Firstly, the scheduler is only works when you set it at the beginning of downloading. As the picture shows, you must click "More" and choose "Schedule" when you build a new task.

Next, go to set the Scheduler. It will download at the time you set. Download once a day, or daily both are OK. Also, downloading will stop at the time you set it.


And the task which had been set the Scheduler, will show a clock light as you see.

How to switch between small and big icons?

Go to View-Show Big Icons, and click this menuitem, these 7 icons (New, Start, Pause, Delete, Scheduler, Report Bug and Preferences) will change to big icons. And click it again, it will go back to small icons.




And click the right button on the Toolbar, you can change it also.

What do these Status lights mean?

From the top down, as the picture shows:


The red light means a failed download. You can try it again if you want, also you can delete it directly.
The second light means the task is connecting.
The clock light means this task is a scheduler task, it will be downloaded in time you have setted.
The blue light means a pausing task, you can start it or delete it.
The green light means a downloading task, you can pause it or delete it.
And the last light means the task is in waiting list.

Does Orbit Downloader have a preference to limit the download speed?

Yes, in the Preferences-Limits. It allows you to set a download speed, and set it to Limit, or go full speed. The limit speed is the summation of all tasks.

Download vimeo video easily

When I watch the video 'Ubiquity for Firefox' in Vimeo, I find that I did not write a tutorial for how to use Orbit Downloader as a Vimeo downloader to download Vimeo video.

It is easy too. You can use Grab++ to grab the video url then download it or you can record it when you watch it in IE using Grab Pro toolbar. Now I introduce you how to down Vimeo using Grab++ first, then Grab Pro toolbar.

2. Then play the vimeo video. When the video is played, its url is grabbed by Grab++:


3. Check the video in Grab++ then click 'Download' button. The video will be downloaded.




Download vimeo video using Grab Pro toolbar

2. Click 'Download it', the vimeo video will be downloaded.
