2. If you have a Premium MediaFire account, you need to do the following:
2.1. Please pay attention: you should open your browser and log in on the site as a premium user. To do this press "Login" (arrow 1 on the image). Then fill you email address and password, check "Remember me on this computer" checkbox (arrow 2 on the image) and press "Login to MediaFire" (arrow 3 on the image). The site will setcookies that IDM is able to use when you add downloads to IDM. Afterwards you can close the browser. Please note that you SHOULD NOT logout from site premium zone (press "Sign out") in ANY browser. Otherwise, cookies will be changed.3. If you have free account on MediaFire, IDM will download correct file only when it captures the download automatically from your browser. If you use "Download with IDM"browser's context menu item or download panel for selected links, IDM will download a web page instead of a real file.
Then close and restart your browser of choice that you usualy use.
If this does not help, then maybe your Internet Explorer does not save cookies. Please read here for possible reasons and solutions.
To check that your cookies are set correctly, open www.mediafire.com in Internet Explorer browser. You should be logged in. If you have to log in manually, then cookiesare not set correctly.
2.2. After you log in the site premium zone for the first time, Internet Explorer can ask you to remember the password. You should select "Yes" (arrow 4 on the image). Then you need to click "My Account" (arrow 1 on the image) and then "Download options"(arrow 2 on the image). After this, click on "Enable Auto-Hotlinking" (arrow 3 on the image).
2.3. When IDM starts downloading HTML files then maybe your MediaFire account has expired. Alternatively, this can happen if your MediaFire traffic limit has expired. You need to try to log in in your account and check that everything is in order.
Also IDM downloads a web page if a file had been already removed from the site. You should try to download a file with your browser. Hold "Alt" key while clicking on a download link to tell IDM that it should not catch the download. Then you should see a web page with explanation of this problem.
Open a link in your browser and press "Download"
4. Problem may happen if you use some proxy. It is better if you not use any proxy at all. If you absolutely cannot avoid using proxy, you should use the same proxy in your browser and in IDM. Otherwise, the site will think that you use different IPs for this download and download will fail because a temporary link can be downloaded only from a single IP address. Please note that the same relates to different applications that try to control your internet traffic and acts likelocal proxy. It can be some kind of FireWall/Antivirus or other security applications. If you use your browser via such application, you should use IDM via it as well.
5. Also if your browser is FireFox, problems may happen if you use extensions from third party companies to transfer downloads in IDM, for example Flashgot. IDM can perfectly detect downloads itself but if you really want to use Flashgot, at least update it to the latest version.
6. If IDM still does not download from MediaFire this means that you did something wrong in previous steps. Please check again.
