Clicker Sets download from Dropbox as text files
When trying to download a Clicker Set file from Dropbox's website onto your Mac, the file downloads and opens as a text file containing code.
The problem is caused by Apple's Safari web browser.
When Safari downloads a file it doesn't recognise, it guesses what the file contains and adds another file extension to the end of the filename.
To resolve the problem:
- In Finder, open your Downloads folder.
- Select the file and press the Enter key.
- Delete .txt from the end of the filename and then press Enter again.
The file should now open in Clicker 7 when double-clicked.
To avoid this problem in future, access Dropbox's website using a different web browser (e.g. Google Chrome).
Alternatively, download and install the Dropbox app from their website. This will create a copy of your Dropbox folder on your Mac that synchronises automatically.
