Hi there,

Does anyone know what the 'Pause All (Sticky) means in the right click
menu when pausing a download. Admittedly this is on my PC so
apologies, I cannot find a relevant PC group (I do use a Mac as well)
Also, if anyone can point me towards an iTunes/PC centric newsgroup.

Many thanks & any help much appreciated.

J

OK, happy to help with a bit more info, like 'When pausing a download
on...'?

Thanks. The option appears in the download sections - and when I right
click any active download it gives me the option of 'Pause All
(Sticky)' alongside usual options such as: 'Pause', 'Pause All'.
Again many thanks for the help..

Just realised I did not specify type of download - it's podcasts & TV
shows that I've noticed so far.

Ahh, so you are talking about iTunes? ok, thanks, that is what I was
getting at. Your original post doesn't mention what you were downloading
on what software!

Anyway, I haven't seen that menu, but I assume it means that it pauses
everything until you manually restart it, unlike pause all which would
restart if you restarted iTunes.

I had a look on http://forums.ilounge.com/ but their search isn't great

...'?

Re-read his original post *really* carefully - there was a clue! :-)

Cheers,

There was indeed but it was subtle
