    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why doesn't SafariDL work? I enable it but nothing happens.
    -Did you restart your iphone as instructed after installing? Not a respring, a restart.
    -When you turn the plugin On and Off, are you waiting for the spinning progress bars to complete before exiting BossPrefs?
    -Toggle the switch On and Off once or twice, waiting a moment before each toggle. Sometimes the first attempt takes a couple toggles.
    -Make sure to leave the media page before turning on the plugin. This eliminates issues where the plist files could not be changed because they were in use.

    Where are the Downloads going?
    -Downloads are saved by default in: /var/root/Downloads. I put a symlink to /var/mobile/Downloads so that its easier to access later on from Mobile Finder. When Uninstalled, I delete the Symlinked folder but leave /var/root/Downloads in tact.

    I Uninstalled, but now Quicktime won't stream my music.
    -This happens when the SafariDL plugin didn't close properly, and as such was left on when it was unisntalled. The plist file which tells Safari what to do with a media file it recognizes is still looking for the SarariDL plugin.
    -To fix this reinstall the SafariDL plugin and toggle the On and Off switch in BossPrefs a couple times. Check a media file in Safari to verify that your media will stream again as normal. Once you are streaming media content and things are back to normal, you can now uninstall SafariDL.

    Thanks a bunch. I've come across several things I want to download while away from the Mac. This'll be very useful.

    Well I was going to pick something less subjective for this very reason, but I thought a familiar apple jingle would be more appropriate.

    What's wrong with Vanilla anyway?

    It's amazing how popular that song is due to that once commercial.

    That's Apple's business model. You get paid relatively little money, however you're guaranteed a tremendous wave of exposure thats unparalleled in the industry.

    Most of the bands that have music on the commercials are indie, or relatively unknown, yet they all debut in the top 10 when their album is released based on the commercials alone.

    I'm sorry, I didn't mean that as an insult to you.


    I'm just soooo tired of hearing that song! LOL
