I am a ios user as well as a mac user, and I have been a member of applevis for a number of years now. I was wondering if annyone had anny information on downloading files in sufari. For example downloading applevis podcasts dirrectly from this website. I have some trouble with that. I am learning the mac a little at a time, but It's not easy. I have no trouble downloading apps from the apstore, but I am not sure how to do that in sufari. Thanks.

Visit the Podcast section of AppleVis, then navigate to the body of the post. You will find the link for the podcast ending with MP3. Activate the Shortcuts menu using VO+Shift+M and use the move down in the menu to get to Download linked file as. A dialog box will open to ask for the location of saving the file. Good luck.

You can quickly jump to the "podcast file" heading level three using your preferred VoiceOver navigation methods, and then locate the MP3 link by pressing VO-Right-Arrow once.

A little known trick, but Option-Enter on a link will download the linked file. Works everywhere, of course, and not just on AppleVis.

I should really take a look at the MacOs shortcut masterlist, I think apple support hosts it.
