modify a download location: terminal system of experience/knowledge necessary I think

OK, so I have this app Vudu To Go (to the storage cloud that I can download and stream movies) and I know where they download who is a problem for most people.  They upload to the \Users\username\Library\Preferences\com.vudair.Downloader\Local Store\ (put a space between the Local and the store if there is a space in the name of the actual file or the terminal decline which? also I space my user name if this is my first and last name with a space between the two or do it in one word?)

I want to upload them to a drive of Transcend I in the SD slot for card (used for extra storage).  I read somewhere a guy said that you can replace it with a symbolic link under Windows using the mklink command.  So my question is, if I want to redirect the location of downloading these movies to this external hard drive where they currently download to a mash of what I do? On my list of drives, this external hard drive is called simply "Transcend" and I created a folder called "Vudu" I want to upload to.  I tried:

ln s sourcepath, destinationpath

but I don't think it worked because I tried to download another movie and he's not going in the old folder.  If someone could give some tips on that would be great! Sorry if I posted this on the wrong forum, in which case you could direct me to the right pair, but I wanted to go somewhere where the people with the knowledge to answer reads.

Thank you

Zac

Hello zaclane42,

First of all, there is no guarantee that this will work. A symbolic link is usually as good as a file or a directory, but not always.

For spaces in the paths on the command line, you can use-to escape the space or just to put everything in quotes. I suggest the following:

First, you will need to remove (or remove) the directory exist with:

"~/Library/Preferences/com.vudair.Downloader/Local shop" MV / tmp

You can then create the symbolic link:

ln-s/Volumes/Transcend/Vudu «~/Library/Preferences/com.vudair.Downloader/Local Store»

    I have 2 drives 1 big and 1 much more small. the smallest is my c drive witch that everything is downloaded to by defalt. How can I get windows to download on my other drive and leave my most 1 for sys tips and equipment only.

    Hello

    What program you use to download anything on the internet? Internet Explorer?

    In internet explorer 8 when you download files, Windows usually saves in the downloads folder, which is located under your user name in the users folder on the drive where Windows is installed (for example, C:\users\your namepersonal). When you save the file, you can choose to save it in a different folder. By default, some file types are saved in different folders. For example, if you right click on an image on a Web page and choose Save the image as in the menu, the image will be saved in the default pictures folder. If you don't know where the file has been saved, you can search for it in the start menu.

  • How can I change the download location of the C: drive to the D: drive, I have both on my pc, windows 7 i3

    My C drive is full and I have more space in drive D:, but whenever I try to download anything (most particularly important since my bank online) it tells me that my C: drive is full and can not download anything more?  How can I fix?

    Thanks, Debi

    Hi Deborah,

    You use Internet Explorer to access the Web sites?

    Perform the following steps to change the location of the download folder, if you are using Internet Explorer 9.

    a. open Internet Explorer 9.

    b. click the gear icon in the upper right corner, then click on discovers downloads.

    NOTE: Alternatively, you can press CTRL + J instead.

    c. click the link Options .

    d. click on the Browse button.

    e. navigate to and select the folder you want IE9 to use as the default download location, and then click the button Select a folder .

    f. click on OK.

    g. click on Close.

    If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

    Perform a Disk Cleanup and check if a space is done in the C drive.

  • Impossible to find PowerCLI 5.5 release 1 download location

    Hi all

    I was wondering if someone can tell me PowerCLI 5.5 release 1 installation file. I need to install on Windows 2012 PowerCLI and as far as I know, this is the only version that supports Windows 2012. Unfortunately I can not find the download location for this tool, only the documentation for it. Any help would be appreciated.

    Best regards

    Hello LucD,

    Thanks for your suggestion, I tried to install PowerCLI on different station and it worked, which confirmed that I have a problem with this particular system instead of the version of it.

    I was also able to successfully install PowerCLI 5.5 on designated server (it was important for me because it is the only physical server in the environment and I need virtual shutdown in case of power failure).

    The solution was easy, so I thought: I had to install all the updates from Windows Update since December of 2013 (that was the last time updates have been installed), after that (and the restart of the ofc) PowerCLI 5.5 installation went very well.

    Thanks for your help and your time - I really appreciate your efforts.

    Best regards

  • Download location

    How to customize the location of downloading files for Firefox on Android? What is the default location?

    I have not retested it a few months, so I hope it still works...

    Change the download location on Firefox for Android, please visit the topic: configuration preferences editor. You need to change two different settings to make this work.

    First, you must know the path of the folder to use. An application like ES File Explorer file manager will be useful if you do not have a file manager.

    (1) open a new tab to Subject: config (type about: config the Awesomebar and hit the arrow go or tap Enter).

    You can bookmark it for easy future access.

    (2) in the search box, type down and make a pause while Firefox filter list

    3 scroll to browser.download.folderList and press preference. Up and down controls should appear. Press the up button to change the value from 1 to 2.

    (3) scroll back up and press the big button "+" to the left of the search box to add a new parameter

    (A) the name of the preference should be browser.download.dir (this option stores the last used directory)

    (B) on the right side, type Boolean and in the popup, change it to a String

    (C) the value is based on the folder you want. For example:

    /sdcard/FxDown
    

    (D) then click on create (if you are too slow, it can erase and you will have to start)

    If you go back to your other tab and download something, it should go to the new folder.

    A little luck?

  • Phone calls to warn that illegal programs are downloaded on your system

    I just got a phone call from a man with an accent of East Indies telling me that it was Windows and warned me that the illegal programs were downloaded in my system.  Before he got away, I told him that unless he could prove to me that it was in fact Windows then stop calling me and I hung up on him.  Is it possible that a Windows person would call in this situation?

  • Unknown device with location "on system compatible ACPI Microsoft"

    I have an unknown device with location "on system compatible ACPI Microsoft". Under the hardware ID, its value reads "ACPI\INT33A0".

    I have an ASRock H77 Pro4/MVP, a Zotac GeForce GTX 670, an Intel I7 3770, team Vulcan 16 GB (4 x 4 GB) 240-pin DDR3 1600 SDRAM and a SSD MLC of Mushkin Chronos SATA 3. All the these are listed in the devices, with the exception of the memory manager, of course. In addition, all these should have already installed the drivers, but I could be wrong somehow.
    Anyone know what is the device? Where can I get the drivers for it? And what to do?
    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    I hope that my answer is not too late. But I ran into the same problem today. The unknown device is part of the Intel Smart Connect technology. If you do not need just disable it in the BIOS/UEFI Governing Council.

  • How to change the location of system restore

    Hi, I can't understand WHERE W8 stores the System Restore Points that I create, so I created a 500 GB Partition on a disk external DRIVE that I would like to use to save files to the system restore and my question is WHERE in W8 can I CHANGE the location of system restore?
    Thank you for your help,
    Bob

    Thank you guys, so I'm stuck with having food on my 'C' drive
    Now I have to find a way to DEVELOP (increase in size) if the 'C' Drive to accommodate the pints of restore (I think they take a LOT of space).
    Thanks again for your help,
    Bob

    Hi Bob

    As Entegy said, you can set the maximum amount of space that system restore is allowed to use.

    The size of each Restore Point will depend on what has changed since the last restore point was created. Only the files that have changed will be saved in each restore point. Each restore point depends on the subsequent restore points.

    These restore points are also used when you select this option to restore a previous Version of a particular file or folder.

    You can also use the latest cleaning disc to remove all but restore point tool. This will immediately release a lot of disk space.
