Part of the functionality Ive written for an app is downloading zip files from a server using NSMutableURLRequest. All works until I try to download a file approx greater than 12MB.
The iPhone is on wireless lan.
I was wondering if there is a limit or max chunk size to implement when downloading larger files?
I fails for these file sizes on both simulator and device. The application just crashes and
didFailWithError connection delegate is never hit.
Ive been stumped by this for days now 🙁
Your help is much appreciated.

You’re likely getting low memory warning and that cause application to crash. Check similar question – you can write the data you recieve directly into file, rather then into memory. You can use NSFileHandle class for that.
