downloading files from the internet

[fasaleh]

Hi

Whenever I download something from the internet it always goes into the download folder. Is there a way where instead of the downloading going to the download folder, I can select where I want the download to go to? I've had my laptop for a month and it's the newest operating system. I don't know the difference in the 10.0 - 10.5.

thanks

In Safari go to the Safari menu, Preferences, General, Save Downloaded Files To:

That doesn't solve my problem because instead of it going to the download folder, it is going into a different folder.

What I am trying to do is when I download something, I want it to go to a certain folder each time, instead of going into 1 folder. So is there a way where a pop up can show up where it can ask me where I want to put the file I am about to download.

I don't run Safari, I use Firefox and on its Preferences menu it has the option of "Always ask me where to save files". You might check to see if Safari offers the same option. If not, and it is important to you, you might consider running Firefox.
