Hi all,
A mate of mine has just given me a dropbox link to an MP3 via twitter. When I
click the link, it opens in Safari straight in the embedded quicktime player.
How can I save the file? I've done this before but can I remember how? Course
not.
Cheers,
Dónal

with command L, and you should be able to save it.
Best,
Zack.

No it's saving. You will see in your download thing 300 mb of … 300kbps for

with some items and don't know why, but there eyou go.

now go and hide.

lol. I've done that many a time. Don't worry about it. I in fact did that
just a few weeks ago when downloading a 4 gig something or other for a friend
and was wondering why the size was not changing.
Good luck and glad your problem's solved.

Hello Sarah,
File downloads are loaded into temporary space on your Mac while the download
is in progress. There's usually also some system process of evaluating check
bits to make sure you didn't lose some of the file in the transfer process due
to a bad connection. I think that with certain
