Safari downloads question

Jonesey · 02-17-2003, 10:44 AM

Hi there
Any one got a clue as to where a half downloaded file would be. And why in god's name it won't resume download. Seems stupid to me. PS i do know about 'I-getter' just forgot to use it first......
Peace

In my experience the half-downloaded file, while being downloaded, is in the download folder with a random name. As soon as download is stopped, the file is deleted. If you want to be able to resume, I go back to IE. It appears that Safari does not support resumed downloads.

You could also try using Speed Download though in my experience it doesn't integrate all that well with Safari; i.e. sometimes it will take over the download and sometimes it wont.

Yep it seem's that Explorer will go back in my dock after all. Keep on with the Safari you developers.
Peace
