How to download files from Dropbox and Google Drive using IDM?

First of all let me tell you that the title of this article should be "How to download files from Dropbox  and Google Drive using IDM or any other download manager?"

Ever wondered if you could download gigantic files with pause and resume support with your favorite download manager. Generally, download managers can't do that because they have not cookies, unlike browsers.

But as you know, there's always a way.

Downloading drom Dropbox:

1. Mark the address bar.



2.Copy the URL to the clipboard.


3. Add the URL to your download manager (Here I'm using Tonec IDM). You should seethe link starting with "https://www..."


4. Replace that with "dl", viz. your link

"https://www.dropbox.com/s/3fo8409jtcfz1nh/Adobe%20Dreamweaver%20CC%202015_x64bit.rar?dl=0"
will be now 
"dl..dropbox.com/s/3fo8409jtcfz1nh/Adobe%20Dreamweaver%20CC%202015_x64bit.rar?dl=0"




5. Finally start the download and now you can see, it can be downloaded by your fully featured download manager.

Downloading from Google Drive:

*Firefox add-on used. So, make sure you're not using any other browser for this.

1.  Install FlashGot Mass Downloader add-on for firefox (Giorgio Maone). You can get it from here. You need to restart Firefox to apply changes.

2. Now click on Download anyway as you used to do.


3. Now, you'll be shown a window where you have to opt FlashGot and select Internet Download Manger (or yours counterpart) form the drop down list beside it. Then press OK. (Here OK seems to be disabled as the window was inactive while I was taking a snip)


4. Now it will turn aside the download link to the download manager. Initiate the download with it and voila!! You can see, now it's downloading.

So, that's how we do it.

Now you can whisper to Alexa

Amazon’s Alexa can now listen and respond to whispers, and she will whisper back. Now first, this might set off another wave of anxiety for privacy advocates. Your virtual assistant is not only spying on you and potentially recording or storing your conversations, now she can do even if you tried to keep your voice down. Amazon’s team just made that sensitive microphone function even more acutely. Video demonstrating Alexa whisper: So, why do we need to whisper in the first place? Will it come handy in anyway? Yes. If you whisper, “Echo, play a lullaby,” for the infant who’s almost asleep in your arms, Echo will whisper back, “Here’s a station for lullabies from your Amazon Music library,” instead of screaming at  full startling volume. What's more? Whisper is not the only important feature that will come to Amazon Echo devices this year, we also have bunch of new ones. Guard : Guard will let you say, “Alexa, I’m leaving,” and the device will automatically acti...

Android 9.0 is Going to be Entirely Revamped

Android Material Design So even after having just 3gb of RAM, iPhone 10 is very more faster than few Android flagship smartphones out in the market and it's not only because of Apple's 11 Bionic chipset but it's also because of booting time, app opening animation, multitasking, closing animation and the RAM management. Yes, I want to say iOS handles everything just perfectly and smoothly. The reason we hate iOS / Android is because we cannot customize it and iPhones are very more expensive than Android smartphones. Yeah we have variety of Android smartphones out there which we consider better than iPhones and actually they are but one cannot deny the fact that iPhones are very more smoother than most of the Android smartphones but that's going to change with Android 9.0 P. Google is saying enough is enough they will dominate iOS operating system with Android 9.0 by doing major interface changes and by major they literally mean major the last huge change we ...
