download destination folder not working
when I have download files I have set forefox to put them on the desktop. Even though I haven't changed that setting it puts them in the temp folder. I have tried to reset it a few times but nothing has changed. If I download podcasts it still goes to that folder and windows media player starts to play them. This seems to have started with the latest version of forefox 12.0 beta Any Ideas would be appreciated. xp pro

OK I found the solution for this. Go to tools, options applications. Change the MP3 format file to save file. It worked for me. Good Luck.

when ur prompted to downloaded dont click "open file" but do "Save file" in the destination folder.
No matter how I change the settings nothing changes. It doesn't ask me where the folder should go it puts it in the temp folder. thanks for your help.
Files that are handed over to a plugin are always saved to the temp folder.
You need to set the download action in "Tools > Options > Applications" to "Always ask" to prevent Firefox from using the plugin.
I have done that, as well as trying to sent them to my documents. But there is no change. I tried Internet explorer and it works the way it should.
Wow, I can't believe no one has come up with a solution for this quirk. Even though I have changed the settings the results are still the same, still putting files in the temp folder.
