I’m using Paragon 5 and the Firefox browser on my MAC, and can’t seem to find my export file. Where did it go?
We just encountered an interesting situation when someone was exporting data from the Spokane, Washington area. The Spokane MLS is Paragon 5. They were very familiar with the PC version and they decided to move to a MAC. Additionally, they were also using the Firefox web browser. When they exported data to a CSV file, they were unable to find their CSV file in the download directory. In looking at the download directory they found the following display.
As you will see in the downloads directory (we sorted the directory based on the data modified) the most recent files are called “m1htnVfq.exe.part” and “y_osILXE.exe.part”. We searched the download directory for any spreadsheet files and were unable to find them. So we decided to see if the Visual Pricing System on the MAC were able to read the data in the “m1htnVfq.exe.part” file. And the Visual Pricing System on the MAC was able to read in the data. The exported data from Paragon 5 was contained in the “m1htnVfq.exe.part” file. We then logged into the MLS using Safari (which the users said was very slow) and the export did result in the “spreadsheet.csv” file being created.
So if you are using Paragon 5 and Firefox on the MAC, be aware that you may have end up with “goofy” file names. That being the case, everything will still work properly. The Visual Pricing System for the MAC will still be able to read the file and do its job. You just have to look for these “goofy” file names and track the date modified to make sure you are reading the most recent file.
Let Larry Kendall, the Ninja Master, help you sell more real estate this year.
At The Group, Inc Real Estate (TGI) they’ve been working hard to increase the opportunities for their Realtors to sell more homes, present themselves as the "source of information", and to help their Real Estate customers on the way toward financial freedom. Periodically, Larry Kendall has led "Wake-Up Money" seminars. Recently with the low prices, low rates, and increasing rents "the perfect storm", Larry says this is the best time in the history as he’s know it, for folks to invest in real estate.
As such, Larry has been doing several "Wake-Up Money" seminars at the Group Inc. and TGI Realtors are bringing their customers in to hear Larry in droves. Usually, Larry will recommend that you purchase a rental if you can "break-even" by putting 20% down. However, in the current market, TGI customers are buying investment properties and are finding that they are having great cash flow, right now! Listen to the following testimonial from a Group, Inc.
