HOW DO I DESIGNATE WHERE A DOWNLOAD IS TO BE LOCATED

How do I get to choose WHERE ..a download is to be located? It does not give me a choice on this subject. How do I get it to ask me where I wish these files to be stored? This happens when I try to download things like ..''Spybot Search and Destroy'' ...or instance. It just automatically downloads without asking.
Also when I have MANY window TABS open at one time ..the program gets really slow and then sometimes it even freezes up. This is not a problem I've had before. This happens when there are MANY tabs open when I am following a thought, or some links, concerning something I am referencing.
Please advise on these two problems.

Dear FirefoxFreak15,
Guess you can tell I know ..just enough to be dangerous! Many thanks for the help with the download mystery.

  • I have rented a movie on my ipad. It did not download due to not being on wifi at the time.  I know I completed the rental because my gift card balance went down $3.99 plus tax.  How do I find where to download the movie?

    But now I can't find the actual movie...I go to iTunes to purchases and view movies , to downloads and searched the title of the movie...I can see an icon of it and it is in a separate place from other purchases but it says downloaded in faded lettering. Where is it?
    If you can't find the movie you downloaded on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, check inside your Videos App

    how do I change where the downloads go. Can't find tools anymore.

    Does the menu display correctly in preview?
    If you look at the map of your project, the top well should be empty. If it isn't, click and drag the movie icon out of the well to clear it. Then try preview to see whether it works properly.

    Drag it from the Music Browser to the frame of video where you want it to start and drop it there. It will appear as a colored ribbon beneath the video clips, rather than as a colored background.

  • How do you delete files, applications, downloads, music, movies, not used?

    When i turned on my new Macbook in the morning today, i was at 56gb's, out of 80gb. Now it states its a 53gb's. i obtained some music files but wish now to delete them off my computer. how do i do this? how can i get precious gb's back?
    isnt there something on the macbook to delete unwanted things? like control panel on windows? also need to delete photos and music and one movie. how do i do this? simply drag to trash can or is there more?
    there has to be something already on my macbook that can delete and manage my unwanted files so i can attain more gb's back.

    In spotlight when I search Superman, it find it. I click it
    and automatically Quicktime opens.
    Clicking on the file will open the file. To the right of any items found with a Spotlight search is a light blue circle with an i in the center short for info. Click on this which provides the location of the file.
    When downloading files from the internet with Safari, etc. you can designate a default location to save the downloaded files. I choose the Desktop and if the download is something I want to keep, I transfer it to the location of my choice.
    2nd: Music. It did not originate from iTunes but is on iTunes now.
    I deleted the original music folder with about 10 songs by taking it
    to the trash can and emptying it...but its still playing in iTunes.
    Would deleting it on iTunes completly delete it and providing me
    with more gb's?
    Yes as previously provided - if you have "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" selected at Advanced under the General tab for iTunes preferences (which I believe is the default setting), then there are two copies of the music you obtained if the music was downloaded or placed on the hard drive.
    The links that you provided... will they take care of these issues?
    Can they EASILY help me delete unwanted items so i can obtain
    back my gb's ?
    The links I provided will not help you with the downloaded music and movie issue. I would create a music named folder to place downloaded music and a movie named folder to place downloaded movies, etc. This way, you know where any downloaded data is stored/located.
    After importing any downloaded music into iTunes keeping "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" selected, you can then delete the original downloaded files and the same when importing any downloaded pictures to iPhoto.
    The first link I provided includes information on deleting applications and then 2nd link provides suggestions on freeing up hard drive space.

  • I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am

    I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
    Thank you    

    Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
    Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product.  You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
    Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.

  • Where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5 ?

    Folks,
    Hello. I am using Oracle Linux 5 and Oracle Database 11g for PIA.
    Before install Oracle DB 11g into Oracle Linux 5, we need to install X Window System according to the document page 2 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32285.pdf
    But I don't know where to download and how to install X Window System for Oracle Linux 5.
    Can any folk provide a link to download X Window System and tutorial to install it for Oracle Linux 5 ?

    You can address the problem in a number of different ways.
    You can install X-windows from the installation DVD or setup access to the Oracle public software repository as described in http://public-yum.oracle.com. In which case, the command to install X-windows is: yum groupinstall "X Window System"
    Or, you login remotely and and use SSH with X-forwarding, in which case the software on the server will use the X-Windows server on your client system. This is probably the preferred way since you do not have X-windows installed on the server. For more details about SSH forwarding and howto, please see Install Oracle 11gR2 on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto part 2 Oracle Universal Installer.

  • TS2518 how do I update my Aperture 3? I can't find where to download it.

    how do I update my Aperture 3? I can't find where to download it?

    What is your current Aperture version? And how did you buy Aperture originally?
    If you bought it from the App Store, you should see it in the "Updates" tab of the App Store window; if you bought it differently use "Software Update" from the "Apple" menu.
    Software update will only work, if Aperture is installed in the Applications folder, not a subfolder of this folder, and if it has not been renamed. It must simply be called "Aperture".

  • Mountain Lion is downloading, how can I tell where it is downloading to and how much has downloaded?

    Mountain Lion is downloading, how can I tell where it is downloading to and how much has downloaded?

    In the "purchases" tab in the App Store you'll see a progress report. 
    Also once it completes downloading the installer will auto-launch.
    Once you get Mountain Lion installed, if you have the Downloads folder in your dock you will get a progress indicator in the dock while it's downloading :-)

  • Where does downloaded software go and how can I access it and install it?

    Often when I try to download and install software, a dialoge box comes up telling me that my only option is to save the software upon downloading. After it completes the download, I have absolutely no idea where the software has gone or how to access it so I can install it!
    First, I'd like to know where my downloaded software goes so I can install the things I need to install. Second, is there a way that I can change the settings for downloads so that things don't go to a mysterious location, unbeknownst to me? If I'm downloading something, that means I want to install it 99.9% of the time right then and there!
    Thank you,
    Andrea

    Open the Downloads window - {Ctrl + J} - and right-click the file that was downloaded, select '''Open Containing Folder'''. Your downloaded file is there.

  • TS1424 Where and how do I report a faulty download/purchase? A number? An email? Help please

    Where and how do I report a faulty download/purchase? Phone number? Email?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.

  • How do I safely download Friz Quadrata font to my mac? where to download and where do I put it?

    how do I safely download Friz Quadrata font to my mac? where to download and where do I put it?

    Thanks for the help. I guess I am so afraid of some awful malware sneaking in, that I hesitate to go to any website and download stuff (learned a terrible lesson with MacKeeper! ... but that's another story). I took a deep breath, backed up my system, went to cooltext.com and downloaded Friz Quadrata. Then I made sure that it was in my font folder (which I found using Searchlight) and I moved it to the Modern Folder. I then restarted my Mac, and there it was! I is still not listed in Word, but if I go to the font tab and open "Font Collections," there it is. Everything seems to be working; I've used the font now and no crashes or freezes. Will keep you updated if some bad stuff happens. Thanks so much for giving me the courage to do this!!

    Hi Dmirtiyter, I suspect that you have a windows computer and seems you have a 32 bit system and that's the only reason you are not getting a download option for Premiere Pro as its a 64 bit Program.
