HELP! downloaded music went to temporary files!!!

01-19-2008

I just downloaded some songs and I hit "open" instead of save each time. Now
they are all in my temp Internet files. How do I get them to my music files?
I tried dragging but its in the worng format and my media player won't play
them. I just paid $15 for all these songs and would like to know how to
retrieve them! Thanks.

All the music stores I know of allow you to redownload music you've
purchased. You need to check with wherever you bought the songs as to 1)
how to do that (and next time Save, don't Open; 2) what music player
will play them. You didn't mention what format they're in so I can't
give you specific advice about that part of your question, but the VLC
player is excellent.

A 'dat' file is not a music file, it is a text file that holds program data.
