Download/Upload Problem

When I try to download, it gives me an error message that says something like "bad header".

When I try to upload, it says "Failed: unknown reason."

What's going on?!

Re: Download/Upload Problem

This has been reported many times, it's probably something with Scratch's website and their new updates and stuff.

The bad header message on a download probably means that you are trying to open a Scatch file with an older version of Scratch.  If you download a project made in version 1.4 you are not going to be able to open it with Scratch version 1.3.  The solution is to upgrade your Scratch installation to verson 1.4.

The upload problem could be a couple of different things...are you seeing this all the time with every project you try and upload?  If so, then there is probably a network problem with the PC you are using...maybe a firewall?  If you see this problem only every now and then, it might be due to the Scratch server having "issues".
