Sort of, but not exactly. It's kind a hard to explain, but for the most
part all things considered, you're understanding correctly.

OK, I probably should have been more specific; sorry about that.
Basically, what the deal is with audio files is that if you select a link
from a web site which links directly to an audio file, rather than the
file actually downloading, it will simply download it to your temporary
internet cache, then will open it its own Safari window, and will start
playing the file. If you then look in your donwloads window in the
Finder, you'll see that the file isn't there. This is because all that
happened was the audio file was cached, but not literally downloaded.
Well, ok, fine techies as myself. Don't be such a smart alak. It does
download, there, you happy now? But, it only downloads in the since of
downloading then caching the file to buffer/play in it's own window. So
by navigating to the link, then hitting option+return, you're basically
by doing so, forcing Safari to literally download the audio file, and to
throw it in your downloads folder rather than trying to just
c
ache the file, open, then play it.
Does that make sense?

do audio files behave differently when they are downloaded to? i've
downloaded an audiobook which is zipped, whenever i try to open it i
can't, iTunes plays it instead but it won't let me do anything else, so
frustrating.

OK, this is gonna sound really stupid, but I have my reasons for
asking.
Are you downloading an audio file, like an mp3 or wave file etc?
Downloads work slightly different if so with audio files. In taht
case, instead of pressing return, or vo+space... either/or, doesn't
matter, your preference, on the actual download link that normally gets
the download going, try hitting option+return, then look and see if the
download is going.

Hi, just set something downloading and did command option l, it says
show downloads but for some reason it's not letting me in to the
downloads window itself. It is taking me in to the toolbar and I click
on the show downloads option in there but it's not coming up.
