I'm buying my Mum a Macbook and want to start her off on Simple Finder. It'd be perfect, but when I've been testing, the one thing which seems to be a problem is that files don't download from the web. The Safari Prefs let me select a location for files (attachments, etc), but they aren't downloaded.

Is this one of the features of Simple Finder?

Thanks

This might not be enough information for anybody to help. Try searching the entire hard drive for the downloaded files--maybe you are looking in the wrong place. Another possibility is that the user might not have write access to the download folder. Try creating a text file in that folder.

Seemed like enough info... but you're right: The Documents folder is the only location available for any files to be saved, including downloads it seems. However, these can't be trashed. I've also noticed some other GUI bigs with Simple Finder and might go for a restricted account instead.

Thanks.
