“Hi, my name’s J and I’m a Downloadaholic.”
I could spend hours just staring at the download progress bars."
I could hear the murmurs among the members of the DD - Downloadaholic D’Anonymous.
My heart beats faster.
Still I continued, “I tried to stop, believe me I did.
And I almost succeeded.
I paused again and glanced at the group leader.
He nodded as a sign for me to continue.
And if there were hundreds of new files every week…”
Several people nodded, understood.
“Then why didn’t you stop?”
asked the lady with a ponytail on my right.
I looked at her and said, “I metFolx Beta.”
The first thing to do after downloading and installing the app is to go to the adjust some preferences.
Go to Preferences (Command + Comma).
There are several tabs.
We’ll start from General.
Here, users can set things like the maximum active task, user agent, and connection throw in.
Then there’s the Folder tab where users can set the location of the downloaded files.
you could use the Speed tab to set different speed limits for individual browsers.
Do the Download, dude!
Now for the fun part: downloading the files.
Another way is to select then drag and drop the link to the dropbox.
you’re free to move the location of the dropbox easily by dragging it.
By default, a New Task window will pop out every time a new download about to start.
Users can adjust individual options for each download - including adding tags to the file - from this window.
Everybody knows that tags are an important factor in good file management.
This option is important because some download servers only allow one active download segment.
This window may be deactivated in the preferences
For further information on the features, like read theDocumentation.
Personally, I think this app is a nice free download manager and has the potential to be better.
Do you have alternatives to a free stand alone Mac download manager?
Or do you prefer to use the built-in (or plugin) download manager in your internet tool?
