I downloaded many songs, but only one could I saved on my computer.

Why's that?

Thank you,
Sabina ops:

Could you explain a little bit more in detail what fails while attempting to download files on your computer?

-Erdie

please use right-click + save-as on the download link.

also, it's probably a good idea to look at the FAQ:

which has the answer to many of your questions.

Erdie,

thank you for answering me.

In only one situation, when I click DOWNLOAD by the sound, could I save this sound on my computer, every else sounds was like downloaded in the list at TheFreeSoundProject but only on this list, not at my computer.

Can you help me?

Tnx,
bye bye

Try to look for the downloaded file with the "look for files and folders" function within windows. Somtimes downloaded files were written somwhere in user - related subfolder where it can be difficult to find. This could be somthing like: "my documents" my music" etc. I cannot explain more details because I am using a different operating system. If the download process takes a certain time then i has probably been successful.

Hi Sabina,

If you follow Bram's advice and do a right-click on the word "Download" and then left-click on "Save target as", you will also be able to choose where on your computer you want the file to go.

Mike, Bram, Erdie,

thank you ...
I find out how it goes that ... I didn't know that I have to right-mouse-button click on word Download, that was mainly here.

I clicked with right-mouse-button there, where is for/to play and where is picture from sound and it didn't go, because it couldn't find Save target as SOUND FILE ...

... and not to click with right-mouse-button on name of sound, cause then you save the HTML document and not sound.

Thank you all guys for help,
Sabina :wink:
