  • Download file on dock (? is there)

    I don't have a downloads folder next to the documents folder on the doc. There is a ? instead. I don't think my mac is keeping track of my downloads. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Remove the broken icon and drag the Downloads folder back on. Downloads location is set by Safari or whichever browser you're using.

    Drag the Downloads folder back to it's spot next to the Trash can and it will make a "alias" there again.

    How can I put download file back on dock?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you want to put a folder in the Dock, open a Finder window and drag the folder to the right part of the Dock. In this case, you want to put the Downloads folder in the Dock again, so open a Finder window and drag Downloads from the Finder sidebar to the right part of the Dock

    Go to your Home folder, locate the Downloads folder. Select the folder with the mouse and drag the icon into the right side of the Dock. Voila!

  • I accidentally dragged the Lion download from the dock onto my desktop and it disappeared in a puff. This seems to have halted the download as it is now 8 hours since purchase and stuck at 1.75gigs. Help anyone - please?

    The icon in the dock is NOT the file itself.  You simply removed the dock icon.  Go into your Applications folder and you'll find "Install Mac OSX..." and you have what you want.

  • How can I make sure that a downloaded file goes to the left of the desktop

    Hi all,
    This may be a stupid question but I havent found the answer after much searching. Basically I like to have my dock on the right. And because of that, I life to have all the icons on my dekstop on the left. No problem so far. I managed to move the HD icons by making aliases and unticking the keep arranged option. So now all my desktop icons are on the left exactly where I want them to be. However when I download a file, that file shows up on the right of the desktop! I would really like it to just fall in line with the other icons, i.e. on the left.
    You may think im being picky but the thing is, I download a lot of files, and what ends up happening is I get a column of files on the right, very close to the dock (so close in fact that their names are hidden by it). So it is quite annoying.
    I would appreciate any help.

    Hi kakeez,
    If I were you, I'd create a folder named "Recent Downloads", place it on the left on my desktop, and set my browser's preferences to
    "*Save downloaded files to:*" this folder.
    Note that you can also play with the Finder's View Options (command+J) so that size of the icons combined with label position (bottom or right) make it look good and handy with the dock on the right.
    That's what I do myself. I use icon size 40 and text size 11pt, with the label on the right.
    With the "Snap to Grid" option checked, it all fits beautifully with my Dock on the right of my screen.
    Tip:
    One of the known factors of slowing down Mac OS X, is to have a lot of icons (no matter which) on the desktop.
    So if you don't care about a beautiful wallpaper, free of cluttering icons all over it,
    at least consider this slowing down aspect:
    ~ it is much better to create folders within the Documents, Pictures, Movies folders, or also at the top level of Macintosh HD or each User's,
    and organize your work that way, so you can keep as few icons as possible on the Desktop.

  • Photoshop CS5 Optional Plugins downloaded file issue

    I am trying to download the Photoshop CS5 Optional Plugins from the following Adobe website http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4688. 
    I'm using IE9 as my browser and opting to save the file to my desktop. 
    The downloaded file appears as follows on my desktop - PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Win_en_US.zip.av6ac0u  - whiich I'm unable to unzip and use.  I am able to download other plug ins from the Adobe site.  Is there an alternate page for downloading these files or some "trick" to downloading these particular plugins? 
    Thank you.

    I'm a huge fan of the mouse myself, Noel.  As a matter of fact that's what instantly drew me to the Lisa and the Mac initially, at a time when PCs were still at the command-line stage of MS-DOS and PC users were mocking and deriding menus and the mouse. 
    To this day I much prefer to do anything that can be done with the mouse and/or menus without having to clutter what's left of my withered brain with the learning of commands and key combos, and my considerably handicapped hands make me a lousy typist on account of arthritis and neuropathy anyway.
    But aliases ("shortcuts") on the desktop are not necessary to launch applications or open documents.  That's what The Dock is for on the Mac, which, as you can see in my screen shot above, I keep hidden below the bottom of the screen with all its icons until I bring my cursor down to hover over that area when I need it.
    And I have double the logos you do. 
    Hehehe…   I have plenty of those in reserve.    We don't want to clutter this thread with more images than necessary. 

  • Display of Downloaded files

    How do I change the way the downloaded files are displayed? At the moment they are all shown as individual icons when I click on the dock icon . I would prefer a list in date order so the latest download is easy to find.

    Control-click the Dock icon and change the settings as desired.

  • HT1338 I can't find download files in my Mac. Why?

    I use 13 inch MacBook Pro, but I'm not faimliar with Mac OS. Last two days ago, I removed the download folder from the Dock accenditally. After that, I cannot find my downloading files from my mail ever. I'd like to know how can I fix it? Software for my Mac is OS X 10.8.5.

    Click the Finder icon -the leftmost- in the Dock at the bottom.
    When the Finder window opens, click the Downloads folder to open it.
    All downloads should be listed there.
    You can rightclick the "Downloads" folder in the sidebar and select "Add to Dock"
    to place the folder in the Dock again.
    Best.

  • 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.

  • Can't find the Download icon in dock

    I accidentally dragged the icon that all the downloaded files go in for the new Leopard, off of the dock and saw it poof away. If it were anything else I'd find it in my folders and drag it back onto the dock but I have no idea where an option like that is located.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I did this as well. Then I dragged the folder from my Finder. But is is not a folder icon now; it's just a document stack. How do I get the 3-D folder icon back?

  • MS Word  - Auto-Opening downloaded files

    I teach an online class and students submit MS Word attachments. Up until now, I have been able to click on the attachment link and the file opens up in MS Word (I have been using Office 2008). Just recently, when I click on the attachment link, it will open up MS Word, but not the file. I have to go find it in the download folder. I would like to remove this extra search step. Any idea where I can change that preference?

    HI Swim,
    As for assigning file downloads... if you are using Safari, launch Safari then click Safari/Preferences in the Menu. When the Preferences window appears, click the General tab at the top. About half way down it says: Save downloaded files to: Click the pop up menu and choose the option that works best for you. The Desktop is usually the quickest way to find a recently downloaded file.
    As for MS Word. If you keep the MS Word icon in the Dock, just drag the file you downloaded to the MS Word icon and it should launch MS Word for you and the specified file.
    *******Changing the application that opens a document*********
    You can select a specific application to open a document. You may want to do this if you prefer using a certain application or if you don't have the application that was used to create the document.
    Select the document in the Finder and choose File > Get Info.
    Click "Open with" in the Info window.
    Choose an application from the pop-up menu or choose Other to locate a different application.
    To use the application you chose to open all similar documents (the same type as the current document and created by the same application), click Change All.
