I'll wait im patiently for either a workaround or an official feature addition. Any update on this? JohnRenstrom gmail. Vudu is certainly loosing my loyalties I'm been needed this capability for over 4 years now. I just spent a few hours again trying to manipulate their folder structures using the mklink command but couldn't get it to work right It's like they've gone out of their way to NOT allow us to do this which is even more infuriating!
This issue mixed with their decision to remove FamilyPlay has been a contributing factor to me giving up on them. I've simply stopped buying movies on their platform It's now been over a full month since I've purchased my last movie on Vudu. I was one of their high-volume users too! My Vudu library has over 3, movies so I'm truly sad to see them dying this slow death I suspect FandangoNow has something to do with them removing FamilyPlay.
This stupid silence and lack of any real explanation from the company is driving me nutz so I just finally decided to give up on them. This App should give us the ability to Download to a location we chose! As it is, it clogs up your hard drive. I am glad I am not the only one. The older version I have on an older tablet let me save to a scan disk. Don't want to fill up hard drive. I tried to copy what you have in there, and it tells me no file or directory. Could you help me out. Apr 17, AM.

I'm still learning the code, and I am comfortable with having to re-install OS X if I screw something up that bad, I already have that plan in mind, because I believe I will be there at some point by doing something incorrectly. Well, the first thing you are going to have to accomplish is prove to me that any of those paths actually exist on your system. Type the following commands and then reply with the results.

Jan 13, AM in response to zaclane42 In response to zaclane I am also looking to change the download location and have the movies download to and run from my seagate drive to save space my MacBook Pro drive.
To make them run from the drive I need to redirect the Vudu App as well, I think. I have my iTunes movies running from the external drive because at present I have almost 2TB of movies and tv shows. Use to build Windows computers but the MacBook stumps me for some reason. So any help would be appreciated. Jan 13, AM. Jun 17, AM in response to zaclane42 In response to zaclane But in case you haven't or others want to know, here it goes.
I will also try to combine both the use of Terminal which can be intimidating and normal OS functions to make this work for a broad audience AND I will explain a little about what the Terminal commands are doing to help illustrate where others might be having problems. So, don't be shocked if this isn't all accomplished in one or two slick Terminal commands, because for most people that can be too much and again I want this to apply to as many people as possible - I will only use Terminal where it makes sense.
Objective : You want to change the download location for Vudu-to-Go V2G files on your Mac from the default location on the local HD to somewhere else like an external drive. Good news is you can make this change.
Overview : NOTE: Any updates to the application may result in this no longer working and you will need to find another solution. That should be it. When you launch V2G now it should start to download files in the new location. If you launch V2G now and it does nothing If you have an external volume called "External HD" for instance the then in Step 4 make certain you use the path in quotes, per the note in step 2.

I looked up what to do and all over the forums people said doing a symbolic link Vudu and junction Spotify worked for them. Created the symbolic link and junction in order to change the location, but:.
So this is what I did. Can you tell me if I did it wrong or if I need to do something else or more? So I hit download and it was instantly there. But I don't think it was from my D drive because it was also back in my C Drive again. This worked for me: Replace UserName with logged in user's folder name throughout. Downloader com. Downloader OR add.
