Fixing Jennae's download problem.

Expose	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 8:34 PM click here and download this program. It's a downloading program called FlashGet. Now once done installing, here's how it works. You open the program FlashGet. You goto an artist page, right click on the download button. You hit download in flashget. You choose where you want it to be saved to, and that is all. If you're not using IE, then hit the little paper button, third from the left, and copy the link for the download into there yourself. The program downloads the file to that directory, and that is all. :nod: Any questions? :smirk: " id="38705">Posted this in the other thread, but this is to make sure she sees it this time Ok, Jennae, since a new browser installation would be a real bitch, and way too big, try getting something that can download for you.

Expose	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 9:13 PM What browser thing? Install the program, and right click on the download link to a song and hit download with flashget. Unless I'm next to you that's the best I can do... . I'm off for now...
Jennae	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 9:18 PM ok shall try
vonsmear	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 9:51 PM Why can't she download then...
milladrive	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 9:53 PM She uses AOsmelL.
vonsmear	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 9:56 PM but i would imagine so does 75% of the people here. Can no one download who has aol?
milladrive	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 10:03 PM Actually, 75% is just a tad off. In reality, it's only a little over 4% , as our poll from this past November indicates. Their browser is not as common as all that. 156 votes: Internet Explorer 6.0 21 votes: Internet Explorer 5.5 15 votes: Internet Explorer 5.0 or earlier 14 votes: AOL Explorer 17 votes: MSN Explorer 31 votes: Opera 36 votes: Mozilla 13 votes: Netscape 10 votes: other 4 votes: I'm not sure 13 votes: What's a browser?

milladrive	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 10:14 PM Hey, they're accurate enuff, Thaspie. C'mon, let's give it a 4% margin for error and it's still not a huge chunk. Jen, what about Winamp?
Expose	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 10:19 PM Ok, Jen, you've got a few choices here. Do you want; 1) Tested and known(winamp) 2) Fast to load with no extra crap(foobar2000) 3) Interesting with some cool features(dBpowerAMP). If you use RealOne, I will you .
Jennae	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 10:22 PM i have winamp but it will not let me use anything to open, it's saved as a file wtf??? How come I can't access it?? And I tried to import the file onto my cubase, but seeing it's not a wav or and mp3 format ofr anything audio it isn't working. Why the hell do I have to have this issue! so um how do I fet these to download in an audio format? I listen to streams and other audio files I have on here why is my audio not working for these downloads??
Expose	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 10:28 PM here. You'll have to set something called file associations on install, so it'll know to play MP3 files, so it'll play them with that program. On install, check all the boxes on this screen showed here. Then install it all. Then try to play the MP3. Also, you'll want a button bar for the player, so you can play, stop, pause, etc. You have to go to Foobar2000-Preferences-display and check the box next to "show buttons" and hit ok.

Expose	Date: March 27, 2003 @ 10:41 PM foobar2000 and set it up in the installation like in the screenshot here. Then doubleclick the file, and foobar2000 should open it. OR, once installing foobar2000, open it, and in the program hit "playlist" then "open" and browse to the MP3 file to play it." id="38749">If it's an MP3, then it should play when you install foobar2000 and set it up in the installation like in the screenshot here.

Cryxan	Date: March 28, 2003 @ 5:04 AM FlashGet stopped working for me at DMusic last May.
Expose	Date: March 28, 2003 @ 7:13 AM Wha? I used it yesterday to grab some gtonic songs for a CD I'm makin'. You click the download link for the program, you download it, you click the file and install it, and do what I said above. At worst just right click the download link in IE and either hit download with flashget or save target as.
Jennae	Date: March 28, 2003 @ 9:43 AM i hear ya with flash get and that one seems to be fine but this other foo something or other i dl'ed is being a little biotch. I can't frikken seem to get it located to open, so I download it save it, go to get it, not there again, wtf!! ullshair: Im trying though..... i realize it should be simple but do you hear me when I say ^!^@!% @!%@&^!#$!&# %!@(( !^(#(#!(*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Expose	Date: March 28, 2003 @ 12:13 PM Find where flashget downloads to and open it with foobar2000 there. I think it defaults to C:\Downloads.
