[peel] Can't Download!

[Stuart Brooks]

Just tried in Chrome, Firefox and IE10, and right-clicking a file (not a folder) gives “Save link as” or “save target as”.

Perhaps whatever browser you are using has been set up to play rather than be able to download mp3s, perhaps with a plug-in such as Quick Time or VLC.

If you don’t know how to disable that then download a browser you don’t already have and it should by default allow right-click save-as.

No - going directly to the page on the mooo server with the folders.

OK are you trying to download from a message on the
mailing list? And if so 
are you doing this from the web version rather than the
email?

Also, 
some users post files on sendspace etc and the
link is to a webpage 

rather than directly to a file. URL shorteners such as Tiny
URL can 
interfere 
with the right-click save-as functionality.

For stuff from 
the Mooo, you need to go to the
referring page; click the 
link and remove 
the file name from the URL -  refresh
the page, then find 
the file 
you want on that page and right-click/download
linked file – you'll 
need 
to log in to the Mooo server and then the file 
should
download,
Cheers

Can't 

Download!

 

  

Hi All,

I haven't been 
on here in a while and when I went to
download 
something I didn't get the 
"save target as"
option on the right-click. Tried it 
with a few other 
files on here - same thing. I never used to
have a problem, any 

suggestions?
