The app did not download as suggested in the text. It downloaded straight into the dock and replaced the existing Leopard downloads stack icon. Files cannot be dragged to the Autostack icon. It does not work as described in the Version Tracker description.

I have and that's where it is. Now what and how do I delete? It is an app but does not appear in the apps in the hard drive. I have just downloaded another item which according the download manager has disappeared into Autostacks. As Autostacks is inert and will not do anything the download has just disappeared! Any ideas please?Tuesday, November 20 2007 @ 06:46 AM PST

rpembroke, I'm not exactly sure what you're describing. AutoStacks is an application, and like any other app, it can be placed anywhere on your system (I'd suggest placing it in your ~/Applications folder) and then added to the Dock (or not; the choice is yours). Once launched, it will create an AutoStacks directory to hold the newly created stack folders in your personal home directory, but this has nothing to do with downloading, etc.I'm not sure what you mean by "AutoStacks is inert" or by files downloading "into" AutoStacks. Are you referring to the Downloads stack itself (which is a default leopard stack)?
Trying to help sort things out, but I honestly have no idea what you're actually experiencing. Still, my only suggestion is to regroup and try again:
1. Drag your existing "AutoStacks" app off the dock to delete it from the dock.
2. Download the latest version.
3. Unzip it.
4. Drag the resulting AutoStacks.app into your Applications folder
5. From there, drag the app onto your dock
6. Now try creating Stacks by dragging files onto the Dock icon

Ummm... I'm sure you're looking at the app IN the download stack (The download stack will always show the latest download). This is not the actual application -- dragging anything to THIS icon will simply place it in your download stack.You still need to drag the autostacks app to your dock -- the LEFT-hand side of the dock.
