Downloading the Service pack 4

[former_member217085]

It used to be a very simple thing to download service packs. Not anymore. I download the Xcelsius SP4 Enterprise, extract it and get a file which cannot be opened by any software I have. Why complicate things?

Does anyone know how to do this? My expertise lies in a different field than messing with software.

Thanks for any help.

Did you download it from here: http://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm

Are you sure the zip-file is 100% complete (check size of file).

I didn't have any problems downloading and installing SP4.

Cheers,

Xavier

I have downloaded it five times. Five times it downloads the same zip size and what I get is a white folder which seems to be dead and cannot be opened with any software. It seems that the zip is 578 Mb and I always get to download a 565 Mb.

Anyone out there able to help?

Hi! Thank you for your interest in helping.

Yes, I follwed the instructions posted.

I apologize, but have no idea whatsover what "basket" means or is, or how to download the update there......

There are two ways to download software:

Either download single files by clicking on the hyperlinked name of the file ("Download Object")

Or use Download Manager to download multiple files at once or to schedule downloads for a later time.

Goto service market place -->softwared downloads -->Collect files and add to download basket .

Open Download Manager on your PC and schedule the download.

If You donot have access to service market place contact you basis team and ask them to install the software.
