Deleted folders reappear when downloading files

This is very strange.  I have one folder on my desktop that I've deleted 100's of times.  When ever I download a file from the internet and asked where to save the file -  this one particular folder reappears on the desktop.
Anyone experience this behavior before?

OK - don't know how this will help the problem, but here's the folder in question.

  • Where are the recent file locations for Printing to PDF stored? Deleted folders reappear when printing to PDF.

    question is above... where can I delete the list of recent locations?
    very annoying when I delete folders I have used in previous PDF printing, then reappear (all of them) when I PDF again to any location

    AcroTray is running in background.
    Thanks, will try that. Just have to work out Word settings so the conversion is seamless. Word tends to drop images and such when I do that.
    In the interim, I've downloaded the CutePDF driver and all seems to be working. Ultimately the issue seems to lie with the PDF driver provided by Acrobat, but no matter how many times I reinstall the driver I still get the same problem.

  • When downloading files in Safari - they are deleted - with the message "contained virus" - whatever site I download from - even my own files from online storage sites. Very irritating. Any suggestions?

    When I download file sin Safari they are deleted automatically. The message I get is: "deleted because it contained a virus".
    How do I solve this?
    I have uninstalled and installed Safari a couple of times - to no avail.
    I have no trouble in other navigators.
    Thank you.

  • Either there's no "Open or save as"-Popup, when downloading files (although it's set in preferences) or nothing happens when I click "save as". Please help me. I'm using Iceweasel 7.0.

    In my preferences I have enabled:
    - Show the downloads window when downloading a file
    - Always ask me where to save files

    No, I just wonder, if only mods (or something) can close a topic, but ok, I see I can now click "solved it" next to your post. Seems like someone has to post something.^^

  • How to pass strings when downloading file

    wf_firstline =  '$$ADD ID=HTAUSRF1 BID=FKI4990016797'.
    wf_secondline = '*03000820000049900167970'.
    pls.provide me pointers how can this be done.
    Thanks.

    if it is a presentation file download,you have to append the data into the table before the data is filled
    and if it is in App.server download,you have to wcan write the strings before transferring the actual data.

  • When downloading files

    hi guys,
    Is there any way of choosing different locations when downloading a file with Safari. I do not mean the desktop or a fixed folder which is in Preferences, i mean, that Safari will ask you where i would like to download the specific file.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks and cheers,
    Sebastiao

    You would need to Control-click on the download line and choose the location you want to save it to from the contextual menu.

  • Disk full error when download files f. music store w.itunes6

    Hi I have my volume mounted over afp 64gb used 56 free and when i download songs from music store it says disk full.
    This only happens since itunes6
    It works seamless when downloading to local drive.
    Any workaround for this nice new feature??

    I don't understand it either, and I didn't study the problem at all after I got it working. I've read accounts of people experiencing this with varying amounts of space available, so I'm pretty sure it isn't directly related to the exact amount leftover (maybe it has to be above a threshold for the problem to occur at all...). Also, 200GB, while a nice even number in decimal form, isn't anything special in two's complement binary.
    I'll assume that you are using the most current version of iTunes (7.0.2 I believe), so this confirms that the problem has not been repaired since I experienced it (7.0). So it is a lingering bug. I did experience the same oddness where I could download podcasts, but it was failing with videos. At the time I assumed it had to do with some arbitrary limit, and that the podcasts were small enough to remain under it. Now, I think it has to do with some state that is stuck in iTunes, and gets reset when something happens with the volume's filesystem.
    Anyway, if following the above linked advice doesn't help in your situation, I'm at a loss for what else to try. I guess rebuilding your library may be worth a try. On a few occasions I've had to run "consolidate library". You could try that (if you are using the option to organize your files). It won't damage any of your settings.
    On your last point, absolutely correct. Sorry about that, but that's my point of view.
    Good luck.

  • High CPU usage when downloading Files

    Hi there,
    i noticed somethign strage when I download file off the internet or intranet. As soon as my download speed surpasses 1MB/s the CPU usage increases. To be exact the process kernel_task.
    For example:
    2,5 MB/s -> ~30%
    10 MB/s -> ~60-70%
    10+ MB/s -> ~80%
    This is really annoying and I have now clue how to fix this. The Harddrive is a SAMSUNG HM320JI with a Journaled HFS+ partition. No Virus Scanner or anything. Also just reinstalled Snow Leopard yesterday.
    Hope someone can give me some useful information how to fix this.

    Hiya,
    could it have something to do with the write speed/ cache/ram? On a "slow" disk, or one that is nearly full or one that is partitioned, it will take a great deal more ram and cache to "digest" the faster download and write it onto disk. I tend to do downloads to a separate drive. Have you got one? and can you repeat the high CPU usage when downloading / saving to the external drive? I note your drive might have 5,400 rpm, with "just" 8mB cache and 320 GB (quite a few SATA's have 7,200 rpm and 32 mB cache).
    NB: If anything, I found SL more efficient, especially on my 4 year old Macbook, which is running much faster and has got more responsive after installation of (full version of) SL.

  • Horrible slow down, only when downloading files??

    Hi
    I am getting terrible slowdown and the dreaded spinning wheel on my iMac, but only when I am downloading files using a web browser.
    I have tried Safari, Opera, and firefox and the problem still remains. It only seems to happen when Im downloading more than one file. I have reinstalled Leopard, repaired permissions etc.
    Im at wits end, because Ive tried everything. It takes about 10 mins after all downloads have been cancelled for the mac to start running properly, during this time it takes an age to do anything, open a new window or application, type in text, even clicking on a dock icon.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    How full is your hard drive? It sounds like it could be pretty full and if you have less than 20% or so free space available it will eventually start slowing down.

  • How do I delete data from my Download file?

    I WANT TO DELETE THE DATA FROM MY DOWNLOAD FILE.

    In List view, hold shift to delete a range from the first one you click to the last one you click. Then hold down the command key and press delete and they will all go to the Trash as a group (no dragging needed).
    Be sure to "Empty Trash" to actually remove them.
    The command key can be used instead of Shift to 'pick and choose', adding each newly-clicked item to the developing group.

  • Freeze and Strange HD sounds when downloading files in safari & firefox?

    Ok. So I just had my hard drive replaced for the 2nd time on my laptop. I just got it back and ran and installed all software updates except for pages and keynote. When I go to download files in both browsers, i get the spinning wheel of death, the computer locks up (the seconds in the clock stop) and the strangest part, the hard drive starts making this chattering sound. This is the only time this happens - when i download files. What gives? Is this happening to anyone else? Is it a bug in 10.4.10?
    As far as the hard drive failures, I shut my computer down before i transport it. I baby my mac. I don't get this.

    Three chimes Series of tones sound like a RAM problem.

  • Ask for username and password for XDB when download files

    Hi,
    I have an application to upload/download files. While the user click on the file link for downloading files, a small window pops-up saying that "The server 127.0.0.1 at XDB requires a username and password.".
    Can anyone shred some light ?
    Thanks.
    Edward

    Edward:
    Does this link work ? if it does then I think you may need to set up appropriate ACLs in XDB for the other IP address.
