Hi Sealyman! I feel ya ma friend! Now I am about to get really geeky here so bear with
1/are you using a mac? 2/ I have ALWAYS had difficulty downloading the ATSE albums since stumbling across them! 3/ I cannot even post a message to Paul who runs this site 4/ SOLUTION: a/ now this may not work but I have figured that this workaround works for me and maybe is because I use an Apple Mac but what I do is take the links that Paul publishes and chop off the html bit of the link b/I then post the address in a fresh link (Safari is my chosen browser and this may be key) so take the link that ends zip. and we go to the download page and hit the button c/ now this THEN takes me to pages that I don’t want and my work around is to do this TWICE so delete the place it sends you TWICE and on the THIRD go I get the download started!!
Does that makes sense?
I hope I have explained myself fully here persevere and if that doesn’t work or you are using a PC and can communicate to Paul then that is my best advice!
All the very best and hope al is well Thanks Dave always appreciate you dropping by!
I am on a Mac and so later today I will try and follow your footsteps through the maze a little later today.
Hope all is well with you (as far as can etc. etc.)
We are off to Shetland (Again) birding (not exclusively) for 3 weeks shortly so I shall not have been ignoring your good works if it seems quiet on my line.
Hey Dave have a great time away . . .wish I was coming with, love a sport of birding . . . . I have read and re-read what I put and whilst not the most well put I cannot think of any improvements or ways to make it any clearer and if you follow what I have said I am pretty sure it will work, do let me know how you get on when you can! Thanks as ever for dropping by my ole fren!
