Safari Icon   Monitoring downloads

When you click a link that downloads a file, the Downloads window shows you the progress of the download.

When the download finishes, you will find the file in the location specified in the General preferences.

If you don't see the Downloads windows, choose Downloads from the Window menu.

To stop a download that is in progress, click the icon next to the filename in the Downloads window. To complete the download, click the icon again.

To see a downloaded file in the Finder, click the magnifying glass icon next to the file name in the Downloads window.

To clear the Downloads window, click the Clear button in the window.

If you select the checkbox to open "safe" files when they download in the General pane of Safari preferences, the file will open. Safe files includes documents such as pictures, movies, and sounds, PDF and text documents, and disk images and other archives.
