Hopefully someone who used macs for a long time can help me out...

I want to be able to save my downloaded files to different folders as opposed to having it go to one default folder only... i find movin the files frm the default locale to the place i want it to be to be quite taxing... can anyone help?

btw, i tried automator but am juz completely clueless abt how to make automator move my files for me...

Take a look at the download dialog box and you can see a reverse triangle next to the current download location. Jz click on it and you can browse and specify where to save.

read the question again, he's not asking for custom download destination.

i hope this will help:

Wei you do make a good use of Automator Actually as for me I just adjust the download location ic Safari to anywhere I want and then, Bump! all the other application will also follow Safari, it's amazing. At least, it works for me

phwoarr... Wei... u the man la... thanks!... will give it a try...

Update: IT WORKS!... totally cool...
Dont mean to be a pain but can i make it autorun in the background?....

Uncheck "Show Action When Run" for all 3 actions. Save it as an application.
Make another automation by telling finder to open the application you just saved.

you can mix match as u like. just dun worry to try. once u get an idea with it, you can do more wonderful stuff.

Wei, thanks heaps man... u single handedly changed my perception of automator now!... i am likin it now...

Used to be a bit more tricky with AppleScript. Now with Automator its much more easy.
