      Tony,

      You need to make sure the internet Explorer window is maximized. If it's 
      not, the Save Target As dialogue won't appear - except if you do a bit 
      of mouse-clicking around. The free Downloads manager paul has mentioned 
      sounds like a good idea and could solve the problem. However, i do most 
      of my downloading of non-executable files into My Documents.

      MessageHi Tim,

      Any tips so the system knows that it is a podcast when I press the apps 
      key?

      In other words I'm getting everything except 'save target as' at times!

      It's like that the system doesn't know that the link I'm going to hit 
      after the apps key is a podcast.

      Thanks,

      Tony

        Hi Tony,

        Have you tried hitting the  apps key   before pressing enter on the 
      download link?  Doing it after will be too late  as the download would 
      have begun already.

        It might bring up that context menu where you can choose  the  saze 
      as   option.

        Tim

          Tim,

          For example I downloaded Audioview and it just went to a temporary 
      folder where it played but did not ask where I wanted downloaded to.

          I tried to download a documentary from Mushroom FM and it did not 
      ask either where.

          That file just played for a few minutes and then went round on a 
      loop.

          I tried to download an album from the Sunday Indo and it would not 
      let me although I had the correct code but I could listen to the songs 
      alright!

          It kept prompting me to install the latest flash which I did but no 
      joy!

          I hit enter on a download link then immediately hit the apps key and 
      go down to 'save target as' and enter but I don't be asked where I want 
      the file saved to!

          I think that say Audioview went to a temp folder something like 
      Winamp library.

          Tony

            Hi Tony,

            Do you have a specific example we canlook at?

            Your query is a little generic at the moment  for people to give
            constructive advice.

            Tim

            Hi Folk,

            I try and download remembering 'the save as' and all of that and 
      firstly I
            am not asked where I want the download to go!

            The last programme I downloaded went to some sort of temporary 
      folder but
            othertimes when I go to play a file it may only play for a few 
      minutes in a
            loop!

            Someone suggested to me that it could be a jaws issue!

            I have jaws 11.

            I also have the latest flash installed.

            Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

            Doing my head in it is!

            Tony Sweeney
