- A download is pretty much useless if you can't find it on your Mac. But that won't be a problem for you, because we're about to discuss multiple quick and easy ways to locate files on your.
- However, several errors might occur in Apple Safari after an update. For instance, many people claimed that they are not able to download any file in the pre-loaded browser of Mac. If you are facing the same problem and files are not downloading in Apple Safari for Mac, here is what you can do.

Pause a download: Click the Stop button to the right of the filename in the downloads list. To resume, click the Resume button. Find a downloaded item on your Mac: Click the magnifying glass next to the filename in the downloads list. If you move a file or change the download location after downloading it, Safari can’t find the file.
More work has made it clear I cannot save ANYTHING on my new drive. For some reason the permissions are preventing me from saving to the desktop, etc. This is (probably) responsible for the error message 'Cannot create file'. How (where) do I change my permissions so that I can actually use my new drive? Thanks in advance.
***Original Post Follows***
I recently (today) had my hard drive replaced and (most of) the old data was transferred over to it.
Unfortunately, I now cannot download files using Safari (which is now the only browser on my machine). When trying to download a new file, it will begin the download, carry on for varying lengths of time (creating anywhere betwen 6 KB and 40 KB's worth of the file) and then stop. The Download manager then displays the progress of the download, followed by the message 'Cannot create file'.
From advice on other threads, I've already emptied my cache, deleted my cookies and reset Safari. I've also changed the target for 'Save Downloaded Files' within my the Preferences. Finally, I repaired the disk permissions within the disk utility. Nothing has worked so far.
I am the only user established on the system, so I don't think it should be a question of a mistaken target, etc. Any suggestions on what my problem might be?

Safari Cannot Download This File (Firefox)
Sep 10, 2011I am having trouble viewing certain websites, in particular my Lotus Notes company email, on my new iPad. I cannot see all my folders and in general, have a difficult time doing a number of things on several other web sites. I thought it might have been the Safari web browser. I attempted to download Firefox with the hope that it's formatting might allow me to see what I typically do on my company PC.
Three questions:
1 - Will Firefox or any other webs browser allow me to see most web sites like I typically do on my work PC?
2 - Is there a setting on my iPad or within Safari that might accomplish the same goal?
3 - Why my iPad doesn't allow me to download Firefox...'Safari cannot download this file?'

Cannot Download MP3 File
Apr 2, 2010On my iphone, I can not download an MP3 file. When I click on a DJ's mp3 file on his web site, it plays it with Quicktime, but it won't let me save it to my device. On my iphone, I can not copy music from more then one computer. I have both a PC and a Macbook pro at home, as well as a PC at work, and I had to make an unfortunate decision which computer to copy stuff from and that's the only one I get. If I try to copy from another computer, it erases all the music off my iphone to allow me to copy from the new computer.
