How can I streamline track download location on my computer?
If you're using the Play MPEĀ® Player and frequently receive prompts to choose a save location for each file when downloading a multi-track release, you can change your browser settings to streamline the process. Follow the steps below based on your browser.
For Google Chrome Users:
Click the Customize and Control Google Chrome button (three vertical dots) in the top right corner.
Select Settings from the dropdown menu.
Scroll down to the Downloads section.
Ensure that the box labeled "Ask where to save each file before downloading" is unchecked.
Result: With this setting disabled, your browser will automatically download all tracks without prompting you for a save location each time.
For Mozilla Firefox Users:
Click on the Tools menu and select Options (or Preferences on macOS).
Under the General tab, find the Downloads section.
Make sure the box "Always ask me where to save files" is unchecked.
Result: This change will allow Firefox to download all tracks automatically without prompting for a save location.
For Safari Users:
Click on Safari in the top menu and select Preferences.
In the General tab, find the option labeled "File download location."
Choose a specific folder (e.g., Downloads) instead of selecting "Ask for each download."
Result: By selecting a specific location, Safari will download all tracks without asking where to save them.
After making these adjustments, you should no longer be prompted to choose a save location for each track when downloading multi-track releases. If you need further assistance or have any questions, feel free to reach out!
