actually, there is no save target as, that is a windows nomenclature. save is probably what you want. Here is somethig else to try, choose copy and then past the copy into text edit and examine the url. I say this because if you are not getting the right contextual menu, you are not sitting on something safari considers to be downloadable. for instance, if the file ends in .xml you may not get the dave item. if it is .mp3 you will.
