Show Downloads Button

I'm working on a 2009 desktop iMac with Mavericks 10.9.4
I've been trying to figure out why my downloads from websites don't appear in my downloads folder, with the help of some of the community members. I was gone for a few days, so that stream ended.
So now what I'm looking at is the Show Downloads Button on the Safari toolbar. When I attempt a download (say for a flashplayer update) the Show Downloads Button does pop up, but then disappears so fast I can't click on it. And then when I go to the Downloads Folder in Finder, my download does not show up.
Today I needed to download a Firmware update for my printer. The Show Downloads Button appeared and I rushed to click on it. I got it just in time and was able to successfully install my update. From my experience with the speed of previous downloads, I don't know if I'll be able to catch it every time.
I've added the Downloads Stacks to my Dock, but that doesn't show downloads that need to be installed.
I've turned off all Safari Extensions. The only Community suggestion I haven't followed up on is one that says I may have a corrupt system and need to take it to the Genius Bar.
Can anyone think of anything that I can do to slow down the Show Downloads Button so I can use it the way it was meant to be used?

Try clicking on View, then clicking the Show Downloads text in that menu. When I tried that, the button dissapears after you clear them.

  • I can't move the "Show Downloads" button in Safari 6

    I would like to move the "Show Downloads" button that is, by default, in the upper right-hand corner of the all windows that show the toolbar in Safari 6. When I use the Customize Toolbar interface I can't seem to get any interaction with the "Show Downloads" button to stick; dragging it to another place on the toolbar causes it to revert to its previous position, as does attempting to remove it from the toolbar alltogether. When attempting to remove it, it produces the little smoke puff animation that is supposed to happen but it simply reappears in the same place. Is there no way to change this button's location? Why not?

    Try clicking on View, then clicking the Show Downloads text in that menu. When I tried that, the button dissapears after you clear them.

    Thanks..

    You can try these steps: 
    To uninstall: 
    Menu> Settings> Application manager> Installed apps> uninstall Nokia Store Client, Nokia Store, and Nokia Store Launcher.
    To install the latest version of Nokia Store, just open Nokia Store from the menu list and choose update. Install the application when prompted. The latest version should be 1.30.(8).
    Check also with Nokia Suite if you are using the latest software on your phone.

    Thank you for the response.
    The upgrade I'm interested is for OS X  v.10.8.5...
    ...The App Store page shows 2 different upgrades:   
    Mountain Lion  (10.8.5)  Software Upgrade,  and
    Yosemite FREE upgrade
    If the App Store is showing 10.8.5 as an update, what do you currently have installed? The final update to Mountain Lion was 10.8.5, and since the basic OS installation of Mountain Lion is no longer offered in the App Store, that would suggest you're currently at an earlier version of Mountain Lion - 10.8.x where x=less than 5. If that's the case, I'd suggest getting the 10.8.5 update. There is also a Supplemental Update for 10.8.5 and that may be what the App Store is offering.

  • No download buttons showing

    I'm having a significant amount of trouble. None of the download buttons are showing up for any of Adobe's programs except for reader, flash etc. I've wasted over an hour and a half trying to figure this out.
    I tried to download it on safari and google chrome. I've cleared my cookies, turned off pop off blockers, turned off antivirus and firewall crap, and still nothing.
    The adobe downloader isn't even showing up in the ADA folder in the library.
    I have a macbook pro, it's only a few months old, and all the software is up to date.
    Beyond frustrated and want to throw my computer out the window. Any help would be appreciated.

    The banner usually indicates that the memo is "Paused." If you go back into voice memos, touch the word "Done" beside the big red pause button, give it a name, then it will show in a list. Touch the memo in the list then touch the trash can icon that should appear.

  • Itunes 10.6.3 available, but whenI hit the download button,nothing happens

    itunes 10.6.3 available, but when I hit the download button,nothing happens

    There's a couple of things you can try with that one.
    (1) You could try doing the update using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    (2) You could try doing a "Run as Administrator" with your Apple Software Update.
    Quit Apple Software Update first if you've got it open.
    In Computer (or My Computer, on XP) open your C Drive or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
    If you've got a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
    If you've got a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program files (x86)" folder.
    Open the "Apple Software Update" folder.
    Right-click on the "SoftwareUpdate.exe" file and select "Run as Administrator", as per the following screenshot:
    Does ASU show you the iTunes update now?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
