Hi Tom, below are steps on how to get sounds working & how to assign your downloads to go to a folder of your choice in IE 9 & 10.
In Internet Explorer 9 / 10 there is the option of having system sounds, as there were in internet explorer 8. These sounds include a sound when a download is complete. By default the system sounds are off. To turn them on: 1. On the tools menu, choose internet options. 2. In the dialog ctrl+tab until you get to the advanced page. 3. In the settings tree view, in the accessiblity group, there's the item play system sounds-off. You can quickly move to this by pressing the letter p. Press spacebar, and the item changes to play system sounds-on. 4. press enter to press the default ok button. Navigating to a default download folder: Using IE9, When you press enter on a download link; You will hear; Notification requires response, Here you would press alt+n, Now if you use your tab key, you would see; Run button, Save button, Cancel button. So, the save button will download the file into the default folder. However, if you wish to change the default download folder, You can press, Ctrl + J, instead of the save button. Now using the tab key move to the, Options link, and press enter. Here you will find a browse button so, press the spacebar on it If you either shift+tab, or tab your way, you will come to a tree-view, Now you can arrow and choose where you want your downloads to go. Hopefully this will get you started, Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool. Take care.
