I have a hipstreet equinox2, HS-10DTB2, 8 gb, I am trying to download firefox to the device and the only option I have is to install. When I choose install it adds a box that says send to --- and it has my cell phone in the box . So it sends the download to my cell in stead of the the tablet. I was wondering if you can download the files to the desktop instead of just installing it.

You should I think. When you download the file, make sure you select DOWNLOAD and not run or execute.
