  Please contact me. My daughter who attends Dartmouth and I have been trying to reach you regarding an upload via Fetch . She checked and rechecked the upload but the professor said the folder was empty.

  Hello, I am recently having issues with downloading FCS files from your server space. My desktop downloads the files, which contain FCS files, as binary data. However, for some reason my MBP is now downloading my files as Text files and I can no longer open them in Flowjo software to analyze them. Could you please help me figure out the issue with setting on my Fetch? I have checked the current settings and it is suppose to automatically detect file format.
  Many thanks,
  Emily

  Hi,

  To fix this I would:

  1) Connect to the server
  2) Select one of the files that is erroneously being downloaded as text
  3) Click the Get Info button
  4) Open the Transfer Options section of the window
  5) Set the "Get files like this as:" menu to Binary

  Does that fix the problem?

  Thanks,
