Navigating My Product Pages

Is there a way to jump to a certain page. I've been downloading all my purchases as a backup. I am on page 50. But I have to advance through the pages one by one to get to the page I left off.

Thanks.

    If you set up DIM so it's not connected to your current library, it should no longer think things are installed and it will give you the opportunity to redownload them. If you just tell it to not install after download, then you can tell it to run through everything.

    (Alternatively, if you've not told it to remove packages after install, then you should still have all those downloads).

  • Not that I can see. You could use Install Manager as a downloader, with Install After Download unchecked, and just select as many as you needed for a session of downloading.

    When I was deciding what I wanted to download to my MacBookPro M1 (again) after the death of its external hard drive, I used my Product Library to look at each item manually, while my DIM was up. This was before the newest option for the thumbnails was added to DIM making it easier to see them. 

    I did keep a pad and pen and noted where I had stopped at, and tried to keep that tab up on my browser but many times a reboot or something would lose the page. So my notes were critical.

    I sorted by A - Z and after the first 5 pages, the next 2 appeared and that became the pattern, with a '...' and the last page, 472 today given. Once I got to say, page 48, I would go to 5, and start using the page 7 position and ticking it to the last place I had been at when I finished. When you get more than halfway through your pages, to the reverse to get back to where you were. So go to your last page, tab to the 5th page from the end, the 7th page from the end will show up, the start clicking to where you ended up in the middle. It is tedious and boring, and to add downloading zip files, that will be time-consuming. I do that for tutorials and keep them on the one computer which does not have D|S, but good sound and I can watch and work on the other machines.

    Take your time, and don't push yourself. That is when you make mistakes and get to do stuff over. Experience talking here.
