I can't download anything and have Scratch

I can't seem to download anything, and before you say 'You idiot, do you actually have Scratch on your computer?', I actually have Scratch 1.4, and every time I download something, I get a message saying: 'Could not read project; file could be damaged: (bad heading). Does anyone understand why this is happening?


I might return for a little while.

Re: I can't download anything and have Scratch

It's OK - there's been a glitch with the server, and nobody can download anything from the website. Hopefully, the Scratch Team will fix this soon  smile

Re: I can't download anything and have Scratch

I really hope so, because if not, then I will not be able to download some required projects than I need desperately.


I might return for a little while.

Ways to make sure that's not true are:

• Scan your computer for viruses
• Get a Mac
• Try going to other websites, like Google(I tried that)

Yeah, it sucks because the site went down when my project was 4/5 uploaded.


Why did I even name myself "ScratchDude101?" I'm Cronos Dage.

Yay!  It's working for me now.  Hopefully it is fixed for you too.
