Hi, I'm sorry to bother you but I'm new and having trouble

Post by weisscrucifix » Fri Feb 17, 2006 8:49 am

I downloaded some videos but then only opened them and didn't save them. Now I go back to the 'My downloads' page and see what I downloaded, I actually went and downloaded them again and have a huge list of videos that I downloaded twice. Is there a way to delete downloads that were previously downloaded? Also, when I go back, how do I activate the downloads I already watched before that are on my list?

This sounds confusing to me too, wish I had a better way to word it...sorry I'm somewhat computer illiterate lol please help.

Love the site guys and these videos are so awesome! I'm having such a great time! :D

The list of vids you downloaded is just that, A list. You're responsible for keeping track of what you download / delete / etc. on your own computer. It has nothing to do with the site.

So wait, let's say that I just downloaded them but did not save them, they aren't on my comp somewhere are they? Thank you for the quick response before. I apologize for such stupid questions.

If you opened them instead of saving them it all depends on your temporary internet folder settings. Images, text files, video and the like are cashed in a folder that you set the maximum size / deletion frequency of on your own system. The internet has worked like this for quite some time now, it has nothing to do with spicifics of this site...

Just re-download the vids you wanted and choose to save them. And in the future, always choose to save them; because they save on your computer even if you choose "open." You just have contol of where they go if you choose save.
