How do I get .mov quicktime files?

I went to the Apple website and watched a trailer.
The trailer was definitely on my hard drive since when I went back to
the page... it wasn't downloading from new.

I tried to get a copy of the file.
But couldn't find it anywhere.
I looked in 'Temporary Internet Files'... but nothing there. : (
I'm using IE7.

I'm also using Firefox. When I watched there... it didn't download
either - I assumeit read off the same downloaded file as IE7?

Thanks.

Do a search for files created about the time of the download. Look for
*.mov (It won't have the original filename.) It might not load, if you
find it; that would be because of a protection scheme.

The file is in a hidden directory. Unhide files and folders in folder
options, and look for the file based on size and date.

Not likely.
 
done the .mov search.
i also searched by ordering the listing by last modified and also by
size.
nothing.

i have all the options for seeing all files.

anymore ideas?

you try it yourself...
i'm sure i'm not the only one who has the problem???
 
Usually, Quicktime only provides the ability to save a viewed .Mov
using the Pro version of Quicktime. You should do a web search on
the topic. There are lots of "Workarounds" and suggestions on how
to capture Quicktime content.
