How do I get the download window in iTunes 11?

Hi there,
Back in the iTunes 10 days (ie last week) there was an option for a download windowin the sidebar that popped up when you were downloading things - eg podcasts from the iTunes Store. If you clicked on it you got a new window showing what you were currently downloading or what was in the queue to be downloaded. This doesn't seem to appear in iTunes 11 - is there a setting that I can change to get this back?
When you are downloading over 10 podcasts each day it is helpful to leave it on that list so you have an idea of what is coming through the feeds, and possibly delete a few episodes from an ongoing subscription if they didn't sound interesting. Now it seems that you have to hover by your PC to see what comes up at the top of the screen, which is a bit stupid.
Any clues on how I can get the download page back, or whether there is some alternative way you can look at a list of recently downloaded podcasts by date (other than by looking at the "unplayed" list - I've got over 600 unplayed episodes).
I suspect that this may be a really stupid question with a really simple answer. Please, let me have it - I'm stumped!
Any suggestions welcomed.
Cheers, TF

I found this article with the explanation on how to find this again. In the upper right corner of itunes (only when an item is downloading) you will see a downward facing arrow inside a gray circle with a blue status bar type line below it. If you click that it will show you your downloads progress.

How do i get the download window to remain open after closing firefox browser window

i sometimes download a bunch of files all at ones then have to go back to review them. but i don't need the browser open to do this just the download window. in older versions the download window would remain open after i closed the browser but i don't see a way to do that anymore?

You can set the pref browser.download.manager.quitBehavior to 2 on the about:config page.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.download.manager.quitBehavior
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

How can i get the downloads window back? i hate the add-on thing at the top right. can i change this?

I liked how FireFox used to have a downloads window when I would download. But, now its like som sort of add-on, it's at the top right and I dont like it very well. Can I get the window back somehow? Thanks, Lego893.

There is a way, but it may not be supported for ever... If you want the old download manager back, go to about:config, click the I'll be careful, I promise! button. Then search for "download", and set the browser.download.useToolkitUI preference to true (double-click it).

I ordered Quicktime Pro. I have a serial number and and my ordered status shows that it was electronically sent. It is not in my download folder or in my list of applications. How do I get the download, if I have a serial number?

There is no download as such. When you purchase QT 7 Pro, you are just purchasing a registration key that "unlocks" the QT 7 "Pro" editing features already built into the QT 7 Player but not activated without the key. Since you are listed as using the Lion OS, you need to check your "Applications > Utilities" folder to see if QT 7 is already installed there.
If it is, then you will need to open the app, open the "Registration..." window under the "QuickTime Player 7" Menu and enter the "Registered To:" and "Registration code:" entries to activate the "Pro" features. Be sure to follow the instructions found on the web page I will post below.
If it is not already installed in the "Applications > Utilities" folder, then you will have to first download and install the special QT 7 Player v7.6.6 software found on the download page which is linked to the web page containing both installation and registration instructions which is included below.

the appletv will not display your movies in folders.
you could change the tags in itunes to include the genre in the "show" field in the "video" tab. this would replicate the view you want, but you will need to tag all your movies to do this.

How can I hide the downloads window?

Hi,
When I download a file the downloads window opens on top of the page I'm viewing. I have to then close it or move it to carry on working on that page. I then go to save another file off the page and the downloads window opens up over the page again. This is flippin' annoying when you're researching and downloading a number of documents off hte same page.
How can I stop the downloads window opening on top when I download files?
Any advice much appreciated :-)
Many thanks!
Evan

How can I get the video window to disappear?

Placing video in a InDesign CS6 file, exporting as an interactive pdf. The video plays fine but when it is finished playing a black box replaces the video. How do I get the video window to disappear after video finishes playing? BYW, using the No Poster option in InDesign.

When the video finishes playing in an interactive PDF, it shows the last frame of the video. The last frame of your video is probably black.
There is no way to get the video window to disappear if it's embedded in the page, sorry. You could change the last frame to white, however.

Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

You cannot unless you have a full TM or clone backup which you could use to erase your drive and reinstall the earlier version (that would be for your computer, not an iDevice).
