Safari is an Apple related browser that we will find as standard on all Mac and MacBook computers, and on iOS devices. This way, if you're on the web and want to download a file, it will be much easier to do it with the help of Safari.
You can download all file types: images, videos, documents and more, but sometimes, given the ecosystem of macOS-provided files, it can be difficult to follow where those files have been downloaded.
Next, we've compiled a set of methods that you can use to download files using Safari on Mac, and where to find them once they've been downloaded and how to change their location automatically.
How to find the download folder on Mac
The first thing you should know is that no matter what type of Mac you are, all Apple computers download Safari files to one folder or to the same location. As expected, this is called the & # 39; Downloads & # 39; folder.
To find it, click on & # 39; Find & # 39; and & # 39; Dock & # 39; then select & # 39; Downloads & # 39; from the list of folders that appear.

When downloading begins, a status bar will appear marked with the arrow icon in the bottom right of the Safari browser window.
Once the files have been downloaded, you can access them by clicking on the down arrow icon, opening the & # 39; Finder & # 39; and finding the folder & # 39; Download & # 39; as described above.
From here, it is now possible to view, edit or delete files that you have downloaded from Safa.
How to change the folder where Safari files have been downloaded
While we recommend keeping the Download folder as the default location for everything you download from Safari, you can always change the download location when needed
To do this, open Safari, click Safari in the toolbar at the top and then click on your preferences then & # 39; General & # 39; In this menu, click the drop-down box next to the file download location and select a new local folder to save.
You can change this default location at any time, or return to this menu if you don't remember how to set it up.
