How to make download window open to front

When I download a file, how can I make the download window automatically come to the front?

THANK YOU! I don't know which idiot thought of removing the downloads window in favor of that ridiculous menu but I've been tearing my hair out trying to fix it. The old window has everything you need in one easy window while the menu requires multiple steps to check EACH download. I was ready to drop release 20 and go back to 19.

How to make downloads window appear in 34.0.5 Mac

I've just updated my Mac's Firefox to 34.0.5. In the previous version I had used about:config to set the browser.download.useToolkitUI to true so that the old-style downloads window always came out during downloads. Now I find that setting is apparently no longer being respected??? I've tried setting it to false, restarting, setting it to true, restarting again. And still the only response to a download is that the annoying arrow in top-right goes blue.
Is there a way to get the downloads window to come out in this new version?

Oh, darn! Well thanks anyway for such a quick and comprehensive response. I'll give the add-ons you mention a try.

How to make New Windows open where I want!

Every time I launch Safari, it opens the window on the left side of the screen. How to do get it to open on the right side? I'm sure there is a keystroke combination to reset the default position or AppleScript, but I can't find one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I had the same problem way back. I finally gave up and now use the following applescript. Change the pixel coordinates of the top left and bottom right of the window, that appear in parentheses, to fit size of your screen. Mine is set for my 2x" early Cinema display.
javascript:self.moveTo(190,0);self.resizeTo(1150,995)
Make a bookmark put this script into the URL area of the bookmark (right side) and rename it to something like "my window size" and then put it in your bookmark bar folder. Then just click on it in the bookmark bar and window will move and resize to whatever you have entered in the parentheses.

How to make safari window open up to my size pref

Sorry about the long subject title. Everytime I open safari on my Apple computers the safari window will open up in a different size or place. How can I set it to open to my own default like preference so that it covers the screen when I open safari.
Does that make sense?
Thanks!

Thanks alot for the quick response. However, my problem is that I do resize the window with the lower right drag every time I open safari. It doesn't seem to save the setting or something. If I stretch it out huge....next time I open, it will be tiny, (and hitting the green button doesn't fix it) or in a different possition.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, how can I get the browser to open the homepage the next time I start it while the download window is still open?

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, the next time I reopen the browser while the downloads are still going, it returns me to the last page I was on. All previous versions of Firefox would return me to my homepage which I would prefer. Please let me know if this is possible.

When you re-open Firefox and choose Restore Session, by default it picks up your most-recently-open window, and the other windows should then show up in Recently Closed Windows.
The Firefox add-on Session Manager lets you manage how many closed windows and closed tabs are saved, in case it's not enough.

That is because whoever programmed the web site used Internet Explorer extentions. These will only run in Internet Explorer. So, use a computer with Windows to use that web site.

When ever the Download window opens firefoxes freezes/stops responding. I can't do anything with it. As soon as it opens, no response. I disabled most of my add-ons but still doesn't work. It's only started recently. Maybe a week or so.

The download window opens but it is blank.

When I download a file, the Download window opens, but no file details appear; it stays blank. To access the downloaded file, I have to open it from my Downloads file in Documents. This quirk showed up out of the blue one day, I have no idea why. Otherwise, this version of Firefox has been running smoothly since I installed it.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
*You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
*To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
Also check:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember download history"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

How to make downloadable links in Adobe Muse

I am new to website design and am trying to figure out how to make downloadable links for some PDF flyers, PSD templates I am creating. Not sure if "downloadable links" is the correct term for what I'm trying to say but in a nutshell I am creating Business Flyer's in PDF form and Photoshop PSD template files that I would like to be able to have my users click a link that allows them to download them right to their desktop. Any help would really be appreciated!

Hi caybar10gaming,
I had the same question as you and was searching online for how to add "downloadable links" as well so your not alone in that lol. Anyways, I found this video that explains how to do this. I hope this helps you, as it did me. Good Luck

How do I download Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my new MacBook Air (Mid 2011) from a Windows 7 PC?

How do I download Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my new MacBook Air (Mid 2011)? I have already formated the HD and preformed a clean install of Windows 7. Perhaps I did this too early. I have read I need to install the drivers from my OS X DVD, however, OS X Lion does not come on a DVD! I've also read that I can download OS X Lion from the App Store and burn it to a DVD, however, all I have are Windows PCs which don't support the Mac App Store.
Is there no way for me to download these drivers from a Windows PC? I know they exist. However, you are supposed to download them through Boot Camp in OS X when you are creating a new Windows 7 installation. I'm I stuck?

I am pretty disappointed in the lack of documentation.
This is the Apple Support page for Boot Camp:
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
No mention anywhere of Lion, of 4.0/4.01
In the past, 10.6.6+ was suppose to - and sometimes did - provide for a download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant program, in order to save them to flash or such (that should be about 1GB, too large for CD). Some macs req'd a USB-DVD or other driver that was needed pre-install of Winidows
You don't install Apple drivers until after Windows is installed otherwise,
It is possible for me, with a tower, to run w/o needing any drivers from Apple. But with laptops, mini, you do need some drivers from Apple for graphics, internet, wireless, SMC support.
And right now, loading any Apple support Tech Note articles is very very slow.
People keep asking why Apple can't post 3.0 or 4.0 like they do the updates. Only logic is to force t he download from inside OS X or from an OS X DVD. Otherwise would be here, and avoid all the trouble. they aren't of use on a PC, and any PC motherboard vendor does post their support software for download.

My school has a website. The professor uploads files in Word. When I click on the link at home using Pages, the download window opens with nothing in it and Safari opens with a blank in the address book. What Could be wrong? Wrong set up?

Hi Jo,
If I'm interpreting this correctly, the Word file downloads correctly, but when you open it in Pages, the link(s) which your instructor has embedded in the Word file are not correctly translated into Pages.
If the link shows the actual address, you should be able to copy that and paste it into the location bar in Safari, press return, and get to the website that way.
An alternate route might be to download one of the open source Office applications, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice, or NeoOffice. These are written to more closely emulate the behaviours of MS Word than Pages, and may provide better support for links embedded in Word files.
Regards,
Barry

How to do download windows on macbook pro step by step

How do I download windows 7 on my macbook pro step by step.

Here's the Boot Camp setup guide. It requires a Windows 7 installation disk, but you can create one on a USB stick, if you have downloaded a full copy of Windows 7, using those instructions.
