I want to use ADA to download updates, once. Then for other people in my office, I want to use ADA to install the updates from the downloads that I've already done. In the ADA settings, I can choose the download destination, but I can only choose a local directory. The file downloads to a folder with a huge, randomly titled name. Do I need to move that folder to our shared location, and will other user's ADA looking in that location utilize that folder/file? I can't test this yet as I'm the only one on AEC. Everyone else will upgrade from BDSP in a couple months.
I also wanted to check for updates/downloads through my online Account Management - better sorting tools, etc. Maybe this should be a separate post, but it ties in at the end. In Product Updates, I was individually ignoring many of the updates until I noticed that I could select many and change the Download Selected \_/ pull-down to Ignore Selected. I went through the whole list. Clicked Ignore Selected. Didn't work. Expletive involving Autodesk.
Since that worked so well, I chose only 3 files to test Download Selected. Only one downloaded. Complete lack of surprise.
Working with that one downloaded file, I moved it to our shared location. Keep in mind, my ADA references this location. It didn't find the downloaded file. Did this file need to be in one of the aforementioned folders with a huge, randomly titled name for ADA to recognize it?
Do I need to choose one download method or the other? ADA vs.Online Account Management website?
Why can't ADA download to the same shared directory?
Why didn't Ignore Selected work with multiple selections?
Why didn't Download Selected work with multiple selections? A pop-up even acknowledged that I chose multiple downloads.
Why does Ctrl-U do underline, Ctrl-I do italics, and Ctrl-b do bold, but Ctrl-S not do sarcasm?
thanks,
stu
