Hi all,
Just recently moved to mac and thoroughly enjoying it. The transition has been fun, the most challenging part I find it trying to find the mac equivilent to the things I did so often on Windows.
Anyway, so far has been pretty good. However I have a query regarding downloading files i.e pdfs, word docs etc.
I download quite alot of these documents for my course. I.e lecture slides. However, normally have no real need to save them. Which wasnt a problem on windows. But now when I do this on my mac, the file automatically saves to my downloads folder which I can see filling up quite quickly once my next semester begins.
Is there a way to disable automatic saving so that my hard drive doesnt get glutted!
Thanks, and what a resourceful forum!
