+ How does usage limits on my YouSendIt account work? My recipient received the error message, “The sender has exceeded the download limit” - what does this mean?
Your YouSendIt account has a 30-day limit on the total number of bytes available for recipient downloads (of files that you have sent). Your limit is based on your account type (for example: Lite, Pro, or Business Plus). We track how many times the files that you have uploaded that have been downloaded to determine the total number of bytes downloaded during the 30 days. Note: there are no upload limits, other than the maximum file size restriction of 2GB for paid accounts, and 100MB for the Lite account.
For subscribers (Pro and Business Plus), the time period over which your usage is measured is your monthly billing cycle. For Lite users, the time period used is the last 30 days.
Pay-per-use files are not counted toward the limit (e.g., Premium Delivery, Password-Protected Delivery, or Authenticated Delivery). In addition, files sent to Pro or Business Plus users via their Dropbox are not counted toward the limit.
If your file uploads have exceeded your 30-day limit and a recipient tries to download a file from you, both you and the recipient will be notified. At the start of each new 30-day period, your usage counter is reset to zero.
+ What if I have exceeded or I am about to exceed my usage limit for the 30-day period?
You can purchase additional usage at any time. Additional usage that you purchase is added immediately to your 30-day usage limit. For paid subscribers, your normal download limit will apply again when your next billing cycle begins.
For Lite users, any unused additional bandwidth expires 30 days from the date of purchase. YouSendIt account holders can also upgrade their accounts to increase their monthly usage limit (Business Plus has the highest limit). Compare account features.
+ How can I see how much usage I have left compared to my 30-day limit?
Whenever you are logged in to YouSendIt, a message in the left-hand column displays your 30-day usage limit and what percentage has been used so far.
+ Is there a limit on how many bytes I can download?
No. There is no limit on the number of files or bytes (that other users have sent to you) that you can download using your account. The download usage limit only applies to the files downloaded by your recipients.
+ Why does YouSendIt have usage limits?
These limits are necessary to ensure the best experience for the entire YouSendIt user base. The limits have been selected to enable most users to continue using YouSendIt exactly as they have been.
+ Why didn't I get my activation email?
Please check your spam or junk folders first, as the email may have been marked as spam. If not there, please visit the resend activation page. If you continue to experience problems, please send us a support email request.

Login to your account or visit www.yousendit.com. Click on the Invite a Friend link located at the bottom of the web page, and invite as many people as you'd like to join YouSendIt.

You can send an unlimited number of files using YouSendIt Express, our standalone desktop application. This is available for free download, and also provides faster upload speeds and resumable uploads.
+ My upload continually freezes or fails. Why does this happen?
There are many possible causes of this problem. The best solution is to download our free standalone desktop application,YouSendIt Express, which provides faster upload speeds and resumable uploads. This application resolves many of the known upload related problems, particularly with very large files.
If you must use the browser based upload, here are a few things to try. First, clear your browser cache and make sure you have disabled any firewalls installed on your computer. Try clicking the reload button in your browser several times to direct the connection to another server. You may also consider trying a secondary browser such as Firefox.
If the issue still persists, please contact us with the following information:
At what point are you unable to upload the file?
Do you receive any error messages?
What browser and OS are you using?
Some browsers, such as Firefox, will tell you what server you are uploading up to. You should see something in the status bar that says "ftf-123" or something along those lines. If you see this information, please include it in your email to help us troubleshoot.
+ I keep getting a system-busy error. Why does this happen?
YouSendIt utilizes a distributed architecture consisting of hundreds of geographically servers. Your download link won't work if the server that your file is stored on is "down" or unavailable due to technical problems.
We replicate files across multiple servers, so the chance of having a file unavailable is very low. You can try to access your file at a later time or you can try clicking the refresh/reload button on your web browser to refresh the page and try again. We attempt to resolve these issues as quickly as possible.
+ I am unable to open the file I just downloaded. What should I do?
We only support the actual delivery (upload and download) of files. We cannot assist with opening the file on your computer. You may want to contact the sender to find out what program is required to open the specific file. You may need to update the software you are using to open the file, in which case you should contact the publisher of the software directly.
The file is permanently deleted from our servers, and unavailable from further downloads.
+ Are the intended recipients receiving the email notification the only ones able to download the file?
To control who gets permission to download your file, please utilize the Certified Delivery and/or Return Receipt feature to monitor and/or restrict who downloads your file.
+ How many emails (recipients) can one file go to?
If you have a Lite account type, you may only send to 20 recipients. If you have a paid account – Pro, Business Plus, or Corporate Suite, you may send to unlimited amount of recipients.
+ Does my recipient need to pay to download a file I just sent them?
No, your intended recipients will never have to pay any fees to download a file. The sender of the file has the ability to control download access of the file.
+ Do recipients I'm sending a file to need an account with YouSendIt?
No, your intended recipient does not need an account to receive files.
Go to www.yousendit.com, click on the Login link/button and enter your username and password.
Click on My Account tab, within the Account Details section, click on the button Click here to cancel your account.
The next screen displays a Special retention Offer. If you want to take advantage of the retention offer, click on Sign me up, or if you wish to continue to cancel the account, click on No thanks.

+ I'm using Mac OS 9 and IE 5 and I can't upload a file. What's going on?
We do not support IE 5 on Mac OS 9. Microsoft has discontinued support for IE 5 on Mac OS 9. Apple has also ended support for Mac OS 9.
+ Why is my file taking a long time to upload?
When uploading files, you may experience slow upload times due to how much available bandwidth you have, who your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is, the routing between your ISP and our servers, how busy our servers are, etc.
However, you should expect the upload process to take longer for large files.
+ I am unable to upload my file even though I am within the limit allotted to my account. What should I do?
Please make sure that you are logged in to your account before you upload your file. To check your login status, look at the upper right hand part of your screen to see whether your name appears. If you don't see "Welcome, ", you are not logged in. Click on the LOGIN button and enter your email address and password.
+ Can I upload any file type when using your service?
We currently support the ability to upload and send any type of file. You will just need to confirm with your recipients of the file, that they have the proper tools to open the file sent.
+ When my spreadsheet is converted to PDF the columns are split into two pages
Please open the original spreadsheet and format it using page setup (to fit to 1 page) and save the file. Now when the file is converted to PDF, it will be formatted with the same page layout selected.
+ I'm getting error message of “The file associated with this link has expired” when downloading a file, why?
A file link is only valid for a certain number of days or a limited number of downloads, whichever occurs first. Once an uploaded file expires, it can no longer be downloaded. If you still need the file, please contact the original sender directly.
+ I received a message stating “Please add an email alias to your account to download the file”, why?
The sender of the file used the Certified Delivery option to send this file. You are asked to login or register an account with YouSendIt, Inc. with the email address you received the download email notification notice. Please make sure you are the intended recipient of the file, and that you are logged with that email address while trying to download the file.
+ When clicking on the download link, I get File not found. This download link is invalid and there is no file associated with it error, why?
Error message "File not found. This download link is invalid and there is no file associated with it. Please contact the sender directly to obtain the correct link.."
You may see this error due to an incorrect download link, or the download link may have been broken up into 2 parts. Please contact the sender directly to obtain the correct link, and advise of the error.

+ Why is it asking for a domain name when I setup my SiteDrop?
Domain name of your website (your website's unique identity on the Internet) is required to properly embed the SiteDrop code into your website. This will protect you from others copy and pasting your SiteDrop code into other domains. If your website address is "www.example.com", the domain name you need to enter in the SiteDrop setup page is example.com.
+ Is there a limit to the number of domains to add on a SiteDrop?
Yes. You are able to add maximum of 3 domains to each SiteDrop
+ Can I add any URL when redirecting my users to see the upload completion, or does it need to be within my listed domain?

+ Can I change the file expiration options after a file is uploaded through SiteDrop?
No. You cannot change the file expiration on the files you receive on your SiteDrop account.
+ How can I add additional fields to the data collection form?
We strongly recommend a webmaster edits your SiteDrop code, unless you are very familiar with editing HTML source code. Your webmaster can help you add more fields to your data collection form
Extra information has to be collected before SiteDrop upload step (say, previous page) and you need to pass the form field values on the iframe source code as shown below:
Ex. If you have the values name=mark, phone number=333-333-3333 and date of birth is 03-02-1975

+ What is “File Received” email notification?
“File Received” notification to the uploader is an optional feature that you may configure by passing the sender’s email address to YouSendIt via the SiteDrop source code. We strongly recommend a webmaster edits the SiteDrop code embedded onto your website, unless you are very familiar with editing.
If you pass the uploader email address on the SiteDrop source code and assign it to sender variable on the iFrame source code as shown in red below, YouSendIt will notify the uploader upon each successful upload.
After a user uploads the file, YouSendIt is able to post a set of values to your web server. This notification can be in XML or HTTP format and will contain all the parameters that are passed in via the iFrame source along with the following information:
batch_id = The unique ID to identify the files that were uploaded to our system.
batch_name = Name of the batch (if user uploads a single file it will be name of the file itself or "YYYY-MM-DD-upload" if the user uploads multiple files).

+ What's up with these new subscription tiers? What happened to the Plus and Business tiers?
The YouSendIt team is always looking for ways to make our services smarter, and more convenient for you to use.
So, we've made some improvements! While our subscription plans have changed, we assure you that these new tiers will make sending, receiving, and tracking your digital content easier-to-use and more cost effective than ever.
We have removed our "Business" tier. We wanted to avoid any confusion users may have experienced trying to distinguish between two individual business account types.
We have enhanced Business Plus, our business subscription plan for individuals and small SOHO shops. We've added additional features as requested by our business customers such as a fully branded Dropbox, password protection, and certified delivery with return receipt.
Also, we have added a new multi-user service line, Corporate Suite, to ensure we are providing a solution for our corporate and enterprise users.
We have replaced our Plus account with our new Pro line. The former Plus account did not offer the ability to receive files in a Dropbox- a feature many customers were requesting.
With the introduction of YouSendIt Pro, all paid subscription tiers now offer the ability to send, receive and track multiple files on-demand. We've also increased the number of times each file can be downloaded - more than double than the previous Plus account.
