I'm trying to download files for a course and am having some trouble. They are pdf's, and on my pc I would just click on them, a blank window would open and ask me if I'd like to open or save, I'd select and the blank window would disappear.....file saved! Now with the edge I can browse the course website and click the link, but when the blank window opens nothing happens (just a little lock appearing in the orange progess bar at the top). Do I need to do something special to download files like this, or am I limited to downloading at my pc from home and then transferring all the files (do-able, but sometimes difficult from a bandwidth perspective).

Thank you in advance for ANY help as I navigate my wonderful new "toy".
