Re: what the fvck...mac

resave it within FireFox or redownload the file or spotlight search for it... it has to be somewhere if you can still open it...

Re: what the fvck...mac

look in firefox's preference and see where the file is saving to by default and search there. If not, search for hte file name in spotlight.

it might be in your itunes library, or I'll bet that it's not taking up 200 megs and you are playing it from the web through firefox (which is an ASS browser, go Opera, it's so hot right now).

Click the lower right right of the quicktime play window within firefox on the little triangle, and when it opens the pulldown, select save as source, or if you don't want to save it, look up at the URL and see if the path is local or on the web...

hey mike,
i found it. it saved as .audioanthonypapppablabla and my computer says that files starting with . are considered windows files and hidden. so i can search for it and find it, move it to the trash, but i can't delete the damn thing because i can't change the filename to make it not hidden.
lame!

ROFLMFAO @ mike saying that Firefox is ASS. User error. Stop using your computer because the rest of us don't have ongoing issues with such browser.

I had some issues with firefox not downloading files correctly. Try to deleste the.plist for firefox and relaunch.
