download music through Safari?

If I'm on a web site in Safari and the page has a link to an mp3 file, is it A) possible to download the mp3 file and B) import it into iTunes?

No way that I know of.

Normally in Safari on my computer, if I click on an mp3 file it will open in a new window/tab and play with quicktime plugin. What happens on the iPad? Sorry, I haven't purchased the iPad yet and I'm just researching.

I just tried it at the Amazon site. I got a message that aid this device does not support multimiedia downloads.

You cannot download files through Safari. It may be possible to do it with some of the other browsers but I've never tried. You might want to search through the App Store for iPad browsers and read the descriptions for further information.

Some sites use the term download when actually the link to the video or mp3 is a direct link... This mp3 link will play in Safari,

If you wish to download the above audio just copy the URL into GoodReader app (from the app store), it will download the audio to the iPad.

Nice to have confirmation that there is a work around to the fact you can't download using Safari.

Thanks!

You can use Safari to download a file. But you need an app on the ipad that supports that file. I placed a mp3 zip file onto my server, zip files will force a download. I plugged in the URL into Safari for the zip file. Safari popped up a window asking me what app to download the zip file too. I picked GoodReader to download the file too.  After the zipped file downloaded I had GoodReader unzipped the file and played it. I wanted see if a keynote presentation would download using Safari. So I placed a keynote file onto the server. The keynote open in Safari showing each slide. A tap and hold onto the screen and I was able to download the keynote presentation to the keynote app. So it is quite possible to download files using Safari. 

BTW... Amazon uses flash. You need to open Amazon web site by way of Safari mobile to make the sample audio work on the site. 

So I guess the next question is, if I download an mp3 file to goodreader and play it, will itunes import it?

Nope, you're gonna need to use a different app from the app store as a music player.



In case you didn't notice, you replied to a post from 6 years ago.



How can I dawnload MP3 files and videos by saffari



Why r u not give ans of my question



Read this thread. You can't.



Yes you can.

 

To save an audio file to your hard drive from Safari, right-click the link for the file (not the mp3 player, but the actual link to the file) and choose Download Linked File As from the contextual menu.

Another option is to Option + Click the link – this will initiate a direct download of the file.
