I know you can download directly into dropbox from some site using urldroplet, so your download goes straight into dropbox and does not download to your computer first and then upload to dropbox account.
Very nice function.

BUT I download pdf magazines for my iPad and would like to be able to download them directly into dropbox like I do other sites and then get dropbox to sync them to my work pc afterhours when lines are not busy.
The sites I get them from are like Oron and uploading.com etc. file sharing websites that require you to enter a capitcha etc.

they then seem to link the download to your ip, hence the problem when trying to get the link to download into a dropbox account somehwere.

Any workarounds?
 
2 Things

Firstly don't initiate the download if possible (stop the page from loading further for those that start automatically) and copy said url into your urldroplet.

Secondly you can try their premium accounts on those sites but will have to fork out some money in doing so otherwise look for those try before you "ahem" buy accounts on pastebin...

Those free accounts generally just don't allow parallel downloads but a site like mediafire should allow you to grab those pdfs.

Goodluck :)
 
I use rapid premium to generate premium links to truckloads of file hosts. I thought I could generate a premium link, paste it in boxmydownloads and have files transferred directly to Dropbox but it gave some error or other. The same link works in a download manager or directly in a browser. Seems like the links are attached to my IP or something.
