Select file to download

Post by hereathome »

How do you select just one file to download. It seems I always have to go through the list and uncheck everything that I don't want to download. Clicking on a file highlights them all for download. Obviously I am missing something. Can anyone tell me how to check just one file to download? Thanks in advance and have a nice day.

I don't have the right click option in the context menu.

I click the flashgot icon then a selection filter dialog box opens but there are many sections in the dialog box; MP4'S, FLV,S ,etc. It seems to want to batch download almost everything available on the page. I have to deselect all the items I don't want. I want to know how to select only the item I want to download in the selection filter, rather than deselecting lots of items I don't want.

URL where this happens?

If you right-click the icon, you should be able to select an individual item for download.

For instance, say I want to download an instructional video from you tube. If you right click on the video the option to download via flashgot is not there. If I try to download it via the icon, you will get a bunch of options to download. Give it a try and you will see what I mean. I don't know how else to explain it.0
