Every Monday morning I get a spreadsheet from one of my distributors that lists all items I have on pre and back order. I download that file, and then do my spreadsheet sorting. However, since I started to use the ProtonMail app on MacOS (vs in Safari) when I download the file, it gives an error that there is already a file by that name. When I save with Safari it adds a number to make it unique. I am unsure if this is a MacOS issue, or a ProtonMail app issue.
Could you simply change the file name once it's downloaded? Maybe add the date or something similar to the end. This would prevent the issue in the ProtonMail app.
Yes, I can. But when I was using Proton Mail through Safari it added a number to the file automatically.
This is the way. Whatever creates the files should add the time span to the beginning of the file name.
Barring that, OP should do it
Just hit "replace"? Unless you're expecting some kind of versioning?
Yeah, I need the previous weeks as well.
it is not really either app or OS issue, it is more of a workflow data management queation/preference. Some places always want overwrite so you don't duplicate data
Safari does it fine. I believe Firefox does too (it did on windows). It should at least offer the option to append.
Hmm, is there an alternate mouse option of save as?
Even if there is that is not going to automatically give a version number. It is going to give the same option as save, which allows me to manually rename the file.
