    Mac help needed

    I use version OS X 10.4.3 and log on to the net with safari.

    I am looking to get something out of my temp internet files but i cant find were they are stored. I can do it on IE on my PC but not on my Mac

    Help please!

    Not at my Mac right now, so I can't verify this (will look tonight) - but try Library->Application Support->Safari

    Probably just means that I told you to look in the wrong place

    Found a Mac to check. What you need is: Library->Caches->Safari
    (this is from your user folder, not from system top level)

    Good luck!

    No idea, but wouldn't be better to check the History in Safary and see if you can trace the website again?

    a modern broswer doesnt store the files in their orginal form - you need your own local proxy, a cache reader of some kind or a website downloader type tool.

    In English, you need extra software to get what you're after.

    Try this.
