The correct way to display downloadable content in a UITableView (using ProgressBar, etc.)

I think this is a pretty tricky question. I have a TableView that displays several downloadable materials. When you click on the button in the cell, the download starts.

But I have a few questions: 1. How can I make sure that the progressBar will be displayed all the time (even if the user scrolls the scrolls and the cell will be reloaded) 2. How can I make sure that the user can download 2 files at once. I am afraid this is causing problems because I am using some instance variables. In a way, it should work a bit with iCloud in a music app.

Here is my code

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleValue1 reuseIdentifier:nil];   
    }
    //cell.tag = indexPath.row*10;
    Uebungsblaetter *uebungCell = [uebungsblattArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    cell.tag = indexPath.row*10;
    cell.textLabel.text = [self getFileNameOutOf:uebungCell.url];
    cell.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor grayColor];
    cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;
    UIButton *dl = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
    dl.tag = indexPath.row*10;
    [dl setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"downloadButton.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [dl setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"downloadButtonH.png"] forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
    [dl setFrame:CGRectMake(230.0, (cell.frame.size.height-28)/2, 28, 28)];
    [dl addTarget:self action:@selector(downloadFileWhenPressedButton:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
    [cell.contentView addSubview:dl];
    UIProgressView *dlProgress = [[UIProgressView alloc] initWithProgressViewStyle:UIProgressViewStyleDefault];
    dlProgress.frame = CGRectMake(cell.frame.size.width-150, 17, 50, 9);
    dlProgress.tag =indexPath.row*10+1;
    dlProgress.progress = 0.0;
    [cell.contentView addSubview:dlProgress];
    [dlProgress setHidden:YES];   

    return cell;
}

//download methods
- (void)downloadFileWhenPressedButton:(UIButton*)sender{
    sender.hidden = YES;
    dlIndex = sender.tag/10;
    Uebungsblaetter *selectedUB = [uebungsblattArray objectAtIndex:dlIndex];
    NSURL *theUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:selectedUB.url];
    NSURLRequest *req=[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:theUrl cachePolicy:NSURLCacheStorageNotAllowed timeoutInterval:120];
    dlCell = (UITableViewCell *)[[sender superview]superview];
    currDlProgress = (UIProgressView* )[dlCell.contentView viewWithTag:dlIndex*10+1];
    currDlProgress.hidden = NO;
    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
    dlFilePath = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@_%@", [paths objectAtIndex:0],self.courseLable.text,[self getFileNameOutOf:selectedUB.url]];
    NSURLConnection *con=[[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:req delegate:self startImmediately:YES];
    if (con) {
        myWebData = [NSMutableData data];
    }

}

- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response{
    UIApplication* app = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
    app.networkActivityIndicatorVisible = YES;
    currDlProgress.progress = 0;
    _totalFileSize = response.expectedContentLength;
    NSLog(@"%@",@"connection established");
    [myWebData setLength: 0];



}

- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveData:(NSData *)data {
    _receivedDataBytes += [data length];
    currDlProgress.progress = _receivedDataBytes / (float)_totalFileSize;

    NSLog(@"%@",@"connection receiving data");
    [myWebData appendData:data];
}

- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didFailWithError:(NSError *)error {
    NSLog(@"%@",@"connection failed");
    //  [AlertViewHandler showAlertWithErrorMessage:@"Sorry, there is no network connection. Please check your network and try again."];
    //  [self parserDidEndDocument:nil];
}

- (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection {
    UIApplication* app = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
    app.networkActivityIndicatorVisible = NO;
    [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
    [UIView setAnimationDuration:0.35];
    [currDlProgress setAlpha:0];
    [UIView commitAnimations];
    [myWebData writeToFile:dlFilePath atomically:YES];
    Uebungsblaetter *loadedUB = [uebungsblattArray objectAtIndex:dlIndex];
    loadedUB.downloaded = [NSNumber numberWithBool:YES];
    [courseTable reloadData];
}

It would be nice if someone had a key or a good code example
