Cannot Download From Youtube

[miodo2009]

In the past I used Realplayer to download clips from Youtube, but for unknown reasons I got the message "unable to download" on a Realplayer window. I reinstalled Realplayer, but to no avail.

Then I installed other download programmes like GOMplayer and VLC player but then I even didn't see a download button appear above the Youtube clips.

It can't be that difficult to solve this problem...What could be the cause and what to do ?

Do you mean something like this? This would allow you to, easily, download the clip from youtube for later or offline viewing.

Just installed it and after restarting Firefox and opening Youtube, I don't see a download button.

A few weeks ago I installed "1-click Youtube Video downloader", also an add-on : same story.

What went wrong ?

u tube have changed their page layout , is it that you cannot find the download button ?

[dmax]

just looked at it , i used to use real player pro myself, its only giving you the option to download to imusic or itunes could you not down load to itunes the to ipod ? or maybe you need to upgrade to realplayer pro ? it automatically downloads for you.

I am unable to download from YouTube using Google Chrome but I can when I use Explorer 7.

Try using Explorer rather than Chrome see if that works.

Have a great day.

Maybe, but I couldn't find it. Where is it located now ?

Grab Internet download manager from your "local online purchasing shop"...... It integrates well with IE and FF, one click downloading from there on in !!

Try the standalone youtube downloader from http://youtubedownload.altervista.org/

or google YouTube Downloader Version 2.5.4 yourself

It looks like I'm able to download clips now, after downloading almost every possible download program.

Thanks !

P.S. : clips are being downloaded to desktop...

As stated above the clips are now being downloaded by GOMplayer to desktop. I have been looking extensively into preferences etc. of this program about how to change this, but didn't find an answer.

Firefox "tools-options" says : "save files to downloads" so not to "desktop".

How to solve this ?

I don't think think you can download off you tube.

I can

Stick: ok in front of youtube address. e.g. www.okyoutube.com\jksajksjj

Just watch it normal and if you really want it saved then rename the tmp file it makes and add .flv before closing the page and you won't need software.

"Flashgot" is a small & simple Firefox "add-on". Once installed, one does not need to fiddle about with searching for & renaming temporary files. It is excellent if used with "DownloadThemAll".
