These download links do not work. They go to an error page.
They work fine for us, just tested. What problem are you having in particular? No one else has reported any errors or issues.
Make sure you are not running any third-party blocking or filtering software. If still no luck, then try a different web browser or another computer. Post back with more details if that doesn’t work for you.
“Safari cannot open the page because the page’s address isn’t valid.”
No blockers are on.
Sorry, not really sure. We just tested using Safari on macOS, iPadOS, and iOS – and no problems at all with accessing the Adobe sound effects library. Nobody else has reported any issues, either.
Are you running any other utilities that might limit your web surfing? (like AdBlock, Ghostery, or similar) Or possibly your firewall, antivirus program (esp. Kaspersky), or other third-party security software?
We’d also suggest trying another browser and/or computer, or perhaps resetting your browser cache & cookies and restarting.
I tried Chrome. No joy.
“This site can’t be reached.
The domain refused to connect.”
No firewall, no blockers.
Then it’s probably the anti-virus software you’re running on the system. We occasionally see this with readers, and Adobe recommends turning everything off temporarily for downloads.
No antivirus running in this MacBook Pro.
Tried it on my Mac Pro just now and got the same results.
Standard Orbi router, no mods or blacklists.
Very strange! Not really sure what’s going on there. But try this link instead and see if it helps.
That worked perfectly. Thank you for your patient assistance.
Glad to hear it, and thanks for letting us know!
