Hi,

I just installed Leopard. One thing I noticed is that all of my downloads go to a folder in my home directory. In Tiger, they always went to my desktop. How can I make my downloads go directly to my desktop?

I'm running 10.5.1 (Leopard) on a MacBook. Please help, thanks!

Well in Leopard the downloads go to the dock in an icon to the far right called downloads. If you mouse over the
icon or click on it it will show you all the downloads in kind of like a folded out thing.

If you prefer a different location for your downloads you can change it in the browser preferences under "general" preferences.

You can change the location for your downloads in Leopard in the browsers preferences. You go to the general preferences and change to the location you want.
