RapidShare Manager

The RapidShare Manager (RSM) makes it easy to upload and allows multiple downloads at the same time. You can resume interrupted uploads and downloads and, as a Premium user, you can store files of up to 2,000 megabytes in size at RapidShare.

Files that are larger than 200 megabytes can be downloaded only by Premium users, unless the owner of the file covers the cost of the download. Find out more about it here..

Description of functions

Premium Account

Log into your Premium Account with your access number and password. All settings are stored, so that from now on each upload is carried out with your access data. The tool is also for Free users or owners of Collector's Accounts.

Upload

Uploading your files with the RSM is quite simple: Open the tab Upload and drag and drop all the files you want to upload into the list. Alternatively, click on the menu bar on the blue button "Add" to select the files. You can choose between several accounts (Premium, Collector or Free). If the upload is carried out using a Collector's account, enter the appropriate data and then click on "Upload".

You decide for yourself how much is uploaded at the same time. Uploads in the queue start automatically when on ongoing upload is completed. To get to the download link, right-click on the relevant line and select "Copy download link".

RSM Link

You can create an RSM-link that refers to several files for other users of the RSMs. Choose those entries from the list of uploads that you want to combine in the RSM link. Marked entries will be shaded in blue. Then click on the menu bar on top on "Create RSM link".

Now open a new window. On top, you will see the links that you have selected. You can change the combination again, add further links or copy a text in the field, from which RapidShare links will be automatically extracted. If you want to delete the entire selection, click on "Clear text".

You also have the facility to write a comment that will be displayed to other users during the download. The "Generate RSM" button creates a link that can be moved to the clipboard by clicking on "Copy URL". It can be pasted into an e-mail by right-clicking on the mouse.

Please note that not all users work with the RSM, and therefore you may also want to offer individual download links as an alternative.

Download

Open the tab Download and click the blue button "Add". You can either copy RapidShare download links into the list, or insert any text containing links. By clicking on the button "Transfer links", they are extracted from the text and checked.

A message informs you whether the links are correct and the files are available. If you do not want to download all the links that have been found, you can uncheck the unwanted ones by reversing the selection. Then click on "Download".

You have the option to change where the files are saved and enter a comment regarding the download. You can check this comment at any time, change it or insert one afterwards. Click the right mouse button on the relevant entry and select "Show comment".

You decide how many downloads should happen at the same time. Waiting entries start automatically when the ongoing download is completed. When a file is saved completely, it can be opened with a double click.

Account/Settings

The RSM has many functions, so that you can customize it. For example, you can change proxy settings, language, notifications and many more options to your liking.
