Carol -
I would imagine any music you buy from iTunes, will download to your music
folder within your iTunes folder, within your general Music folder.
Do you know how to find your list of built-in folders, such as Documents,
Pictures and Music? This is where Finder comes in, and when tweaked a bit,
makes it much easier to find things. Like I said, there is a series of 3
good podcasts on the Mac for the blind website, covering the Finder
application -

Andy,
I haven't instructed the downloads to go anywhere, since I didn't know I
had to! (batgirl!) Do tell me what you know, because I'd be interested to
learn whre my downloads might be hidden. When I installed DropBox, I did
find the file in downloads, so assumed (wrongly)that that's where others
would be too!
I also saw recently that there are four different ways that you can
install files, but I don't remember where I saw it and don't know any more
than that at this moment. I have only installed dropbox so far and make
sure that I just followed my nose!

May I ask a question here, please?
I have been trying to download music which I have purchased from iTunes
onto the Mac. It appears to go, I hear the sound, but then I cannot
locate the Music in question. It just appears not to be there. What
could I be doing wrong?

Hi Judy,
To get rid of an unwanted program in the download queue you select the
program in the download table and then press the "-" button which
follows the table.

Hello Judy,
I have pasted the Get iPlayer Automator article below. I hope this
helps....
Playing TV and Radio programs on an Apple Macintosh
The free App ‘Get iPlayer Automator’ is a great way to download and
play TV and radio programs on an Apple Macintosh. You can download
TV programs from the BBC , ITV and Channel 4 and radio programs
from the BBC including those from regional stations. You can search
for desired programs by entering words which might appear in the
program title and you can set preferences to download the audio
described version of the program if it is available. You can request
that downloaded programs are automatically added to your iTunes
library from where you can play them or transfer them to portable
devices such as iPhone, iPod, and iPad. You can automatically add
programs which are part of a series to your download queue as they
become available. Finally if you live outside the UK you can still
download British TV and radio programs via a provided proxy.
Get iPlayer Automator requires Mac OS 10.7 or later. You can
download it free from
http://tom-tech.com/iplayer_automator/iPlayer_Automator/Get_iPlayer_Automator.html.
Copy the ‘Get iPlayer Automator.app’ from your download folder to
your application folder and open it. Wait a few seconds and you will
be invited to upgrade to the latest level which at the time of
writing is 1.5.3 (536). You now need to change a few of the default
preferences. Open the preference pane for Get iPlayer Automator and
go to the general tab. If you live in the UK you must set the Proxy
option to None. The default is Provided which should work if you
live outside the UK but I have no way to test this. If you want to
download BBC radio programs as well as TV programs ensure that BBC
Radio and BBC Podcasts options are checked in the Items to Cache
group. These are not checked by default. Also ensure that the
Download Audio Described and Signed Versions option is checked. This
is checked by default and will download the audio described version
of a program if it is available. If no audio described version is
available it will download the standard version. Now close the
preference pane.
To download a program first enter one or more words which might
appear in the program title into the Search For Shows edit box and
press the Enter key. After a few seconds look in the Search Results
table for the desired show(s) and select them. Now press the Add To
Queue button to add the desired show(s) to the download queue. Then
check that the desired show(s) really are in the download queue and
if this queue contains any unwanted shows select them and press
the - button to remove them. Now go to the Toolbar and press the
Start button to start downloading the desired show(s). These will be
saved in the Download Path specified in the preference pane which by
default is set to the Movies/TV Shows folder in your user area.
Downloaded TV programs will also appear in the TV Shows part of your
iTunes library from where you can play the desired shows. Downloaded
radio programs will appear in the Music part of your iTunes library
and can be found by going to Artists and looking for BBC Radio.
You can use the TVR feature of Get iPlayer Automator to
automatically download the next available program of a nominated
series the next time you start Get iPlayer Automator. To do this
press the TVR button in the Toolbar. This brings up a panel enabling
you to search for a show in a series of shows and then add that
series to the TVR queue. The next time you start Get iPlayer
Automator it will search for the next show for each entry in the TVR
queue and if one is found it will add it to your download queue.
Each time you start Get iPlayer Automator it refreshes its index of
possible shows. If you have not used Get iPlayer Automator for a
while this can take several minutes during which the Search For
Shows edit box is dimmed. You then just need to be patent and wait
for the Search For Shows edit box to become available.

Don't despair! There's a solution.
The app you need is Get iPlayer Automator

It works even outside the UK.

Hi all -
New to the Mac, only had my MacBook Air for 3 weeks. I'm
interested in the possibility of using a different web browser,
as I want to use
www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer
to listen to radio/TV programmes I miss, here in the UK. I'm able
to find the programme I want to listen too, but the play button
is a graphic, and VO can't see it. JAWS under Windows was ok with
this, as the BBC was made aware of the problem, and made it
accessible, but they don't appear to have taken Mac users in to
consideration. I'll contact them about this, but in the meantime,
don't want to keep missing programmes. Of course, I could be
wrong, and maybe there is a way to have VO see the play button
when in a graphic, and I just don't know how to make it happen,
so if anybody knows if VO can be made to see these graphic
buttons, I'd appreciate the knowledge -
Andy

I find that the lightning browser works fine with VoiceOver and
often allows me to access buttons and the like which Safari
cannot find for whatever reason. I recommend that you give it a
go. It is in the App store.
