I am 70 years old and brand new to Ubuntu. I am currently running v16.04.

I want to download music scores to a folder that is dedicated to that type of file.

Please, how do I do this?

Please keep in mind that I know nothing about Linux or Ubuntu. Please give clear and precise instructions.

  • Well, there already exists default folder for Music , in your home folder. You can set firefox to ask you where to save files , and when you save a file , direct it to Music folder. Or you want an automatic answer ? Because that is definitely scriptable May 8, 2016 at 2:26
  • What type (extension) would the scores be? May 8, 2016 at 8:58
  • The scores are pdf files. Please, how do I set firefox to download to the music folder. Please be clear and detailed in your answer. I know nothing about any OS except windoze. Thank you very much, TomD

In Firefox go to Edit > Preferences in the menu bar and under the General tab go to Downloads and change the option from Save files to to Always ask me where to save files.

Firefox Settings

Now when you click to download a file and select the Save File option a Window will appear where you can select the directory you wish to save the file to.
