After purchasing a track the private URL is not provided for download. Drupal 4.5, e-commerce 4.5. A purchase runs through paypal but nowhere is the link to the file given to end user. Alternately if the payment has to 'go through' is there a way to instantly sell downloads? I do not want to approve a .50 purchase every single time.

If the user has 'access content' and 'access products' permissions then they will see a link in the site navigation called 'my files' once logged in.

If you enable cron, do the transactions that only consist of file downloads get pushed out of the pending queue? I thought I had the system set up that way.

Ah, I had expected there to be a link after purchase, either in my drupal site or after payment in paypal. Since I had recently switched to just horizontal navigation and no sidebar I had not seen 'my files' or 'paypal' menu items. I was looking for some kind of information in 'administer' - a template for purchase confirmation that had a variable for the file download path. With some site documentation guiding users through the process I think it will work just fine.

Slightly OT - when a payment is made via e-commerce and the money is a paypal 'e-check' (taken from their bank account) is there delay to access the file until the 'e-check' clears? I'm not really sure if someone would get another confirmation email that says that their payment cleared and they can now download the file...

Thanks for your help and quick response time, it's much appreciated!

I've updated the documentation outlining how users access their files along with how to modify the e-mail users receive after a purchase has been made.
