lol guys!

you dont have to go to RS link just go to FDM, Site Manager, add your RS name&pass ...
then just add raw RS links and download!

I really like FDM but this issue with RS is really annoying. And I cant find any site manager. I mean there is stg like that in settings but cant find the list of sites where I can put pass.

Just installed windows 7 yesterday and can confirm that both 870 and 871 downloads premium rapidshare properly, if you put in your username/passwords into the site manager beforehand.

The only reason you would get 30k files is because:
You've reached your download limit, wait another day (max 25gb, 5gb refresh per day).
Your link is dead.
Your username and/or password was wrong, or you never entered it into FDM, iirc just logging into website is not enough unless you were manually DLing each links.

I'm getting Rapidshare problems as well, with XP and both .848 and .871. All I get are 7k downloads.

The problem isn't that I've reached my limit or my l/p changed or anything like that. I can download through my browser just fine.

FDM just isn't working properly with Rapidshare.

I am getting the same problem. All I get from a download is 30kb file.

I read the above posts and tried opening the download link through IE as before I was using firefox.
It worked. I do not get it as in both the cases the download link is the same.
Even if I copy the link from firefox and add a download on FDM , it does not work. It almost feels like firefox attaches some hidden thing in its clipboard which makes FDM fail.
The same link when taken from IE, works fine ?? this is weird

Fellas and ladies struggling with RS and FDM, esp. with Windows 7: Rest assured, it works. have a bit of patience and and read each solution that is offered from the 1st page to the last. If after making sure that you're applying the advice of each posted solution (using sitemanager for UN and Pass, making sure that you've entered the correct UN and Pass, etc.) please post exactly the steps you've tried, try to isolate where you're struggling (i.e. where the heck is site manager?) and I'll try to help you out.
I love RS and I am having success far exceeding any other DL manager that I've tried, so I hope that i can help you have success.

Good Luck!
