Hello -
I had been downloading eMusic files for the past year without problems. Today, instead, clicking "download' on Emusic produced the message "The safety of this file cannot be determined. Are you sure you want to download (for example) "14273281.emp". I continued the download, which produced a blank page file on my desktop called (for example) "14273281.emp". Double-clicking on it produced a message saying the file was not recognized (or something like that, I'm not in a situation to produce the message again) and asking me to choose an application to open it with. As it looks like I should not have done, I chose iTunes, which indeed could do nothing with it.
The eMusic Download Manager seemed to have disappeared. I re-downloaded the application from eMusic, but subsequent attempts to download music did not call up the Download Manager, I just got more "emp" files on my desktop. When I double-clicked on them, the current application became iTunes, but nothing else happened.
So I seem to be stuck with the emp file - iTunes link, and I don't know how to return to engaging the Download Manager to do its thing. Now I'm just wasting my downloads on eMusic, and I have to produce a new mix CD for friends in a week. Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thank you, Stephen
ps - it is probably best to assume that I don't have any technical knowledge related to this matter.
