I am on a macbook pro. Until yesterday all my downloads went to both the downloads folder in the finder and the downloads icon on the dock. They are no longer going to the icon on the dock. This is very inconvenient. How can I correct the problem???

I had checked that and there was no change. However, today it is working for no explicable reason. Thank you for your reply.
