How to Download 5x Faster using Rapidshare

This tutorial is intended for both rapidshare.com and rapidshare.de. There are multiple ways you can download from rapidshare, but there are 2 that are most efficient (in my opinion).

There are 2 parts of this tutorial.
Part 1 - For the more experienced users of rapidshare. This part shows how to download those long lists of files 5x faster and easier than you use to download them. When downloading single files this way, it will download them up to 5x faster as well.
Part 2 - For the more novice users in learning how to navigate through rapidshare to download.

Part 1
Again, this deals with downloading multiple files without clicking each and every URL or copying each URL into a new browser to start downloading.

For best results, purchase a Rapidshare Premium account.

Requirements:
Flashget

1. This step is for Premium Rapidshare users. First, we'll need to set up Flashget. Open it up and go to Tools>Default Download Properties. Enter your Premium Login information into the "Login to Server" area. Change the Save to directory to your normal downloads directory. Hit ok.



2. When there is a file that you want but it's split into many different files because it's too large, then this is probably what you are presented with:

complaints made - links removed

3. Select all those and right click and choose copy (or hit ctrl+c). Usually flashget will come up and ask if you want to download. If it does, just click OK. If not, then follow the next step.

4. Open up notepad and paste all the URL's there. Save it. Then in Flashget go to File>Import List. A menu will come up, navigate to the directory you saved the .txt to, make sure the Files of Type is changed to All Files. Choose the file and click Open. A new menu will come up to verify that those are the files you want to download, click OK.



5. Right click any of the files and click "Start All". This is so the files will go in queue since Flashget usually puts them to Paused. I leave my download settings at default of 3 connections at a time, but you can change any options you want (Tools>Option).

You are done! The files should be downloading now.

Part 2
1. Find a file you have to download. Many times you'll see it as such:

links removed due to complaints

So just copy and paste it in a new window.

2. You'll be presented with rapidshares download page, scroll to the bottom and you should see something similar to this (I've cropped the images for better viewing):

3. I'll assume you have a free account, so choose the free option.

4. There will be a countdown until you can download your file (most of the time).

This is what you get when it's done counting down:

5. Once the countdown is done, click Download. Then a popup should come up asking you were you want to save it to. Save it to your download directory (meaning a folder somewhere so you don't lose your download).

Done!!
