I am a Mac user and have found I can only us certain Downloaders to down load games. Is there a way to make it so I can use all available downloaders? Currently I can only use anonfile, Workload, and Uploadhaven (currently not working for me right now). I can't use Mega, Gofile, pixel drain or Mixdrop. Do I need to download something or be registered with these other downloaders?

Any help would be apppricated. Please explain any solution in newbie terms and directions thank you.

What do you mean by that ? They are nothing more than websites transferring large amount of data. Basically speaking, you can use them with anything that can access the web and send HTTP request, whatever the OS.

I frequently see them used for Mac build, so I guess that there's no reason for them to not works on Mac.

Absolutely not. Like implied above, the (almost) only thing that can prevent you to download from those hosting site would be a too old web browser.

If I use Gofile, Mega or Pixeldrain I go to the website and when I hit download nothing happens....it will not download it doesn't take me to another page nothing happens. Mega while appear to download but if it's loading it isn't loading to my computer. I'm really not sure why.

Hmm, do you have Javascript disabled or something like that ?

Also, Mega is downloading in the browser memory/cache. It's only once the file have been fully downloaded, then decrypted, that it will be effectively saved on your hard drive and where you expect the file to be.
