How do I download & save videos to my computer?

How do I download YouTube videos to my computer in fewer easy steps?
Can you do it with pictures in steps to complete video downloading from internet to my computer-so I can watch these videos off-line?

    I think you may can find a browser extension for that.

    What browser extension site?
    Any specific extension site name, then I will get to that video loading site that you’ll find for me?

    -Said to give me video loading instruction in pictures.

    / The YouTube Icon or YouTube App?, I don't think that would help me any!

    Look for "extensions" or "add ons" on your browser or look in the help section to find them.  Then you can browse all of the add ons.  I'm almost certain Firefox has one for downloading videos.

    I use this to download YouTube videos. I also use it to watch videos that are flagged as adult videos without logging into YouTube.



    You have a choice. 9xbuddy always works for me.

    Choose the video quality.

    This may not be easy for me to (quick) follow through these steps for me to get videos to my computer where there's no need for internet to watch these videos. The printings from these pictures are very small (& fuzzy) for me to read to do each steps here.

    I don't know if that's just what I will do first, but I may try that:
    Do I just type in 'https:// to deturl.com/', then the list of these 'deturl' video downloading links on that page-don't know which is the good one for me to use from that page in the 'https:// to deturl.com/' site, - don't know if that's where do I will go to for now '?'

  • Replace https:// with deturl.com/ .

    An example is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw becomes https://deturl.com/www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw .

    From your Video Loading site, the '9XBuddy' clicked in after I paste the URL of YouTube video, this is taking me a long time for it to get started, may I try another different video loading link?

    Or should I pick/try another different movie & paste in-'URL', & see if that will go in more instant?
    Maybe I will just try a really short video to load-on this too(?) This post was edited by DannyPetti at June 18, 2022 9:00 AM MDT

    On that page it probably told me that click 'Allow' required to continue to download, but I didn't see where to click the Allow button, but it showed-up a box for a second to click as 'not a robot'-

    After I load that, then where it says 'I need to "Allow" in order to continue:

    Then I click that 'OK' button, Then I see the message next to that red robot thing (I showed you earlier):
    "Click "Allow" if you are not a robot" - I didn't see anywhere as to click allow-to continue with the downloading that it was starting to download-the video that I selected & insert to download to my computer-to watch it without the need of internet connection.
    Perhaps I have to see where will it put the download video to the computer so I can find where it downloaded the video.

    What did you do, Danny?  I use Deturl all the time to go around YouTube’s login page to watch G-rated adult videos and I’ve never seen either of those pages!

    I download videos onto my computer, so that I can still watch these YouTube videos-even if I don’t have internet to it, I don’t know if Deturl is the one that do it. And I was thinking that Martina will be helping me through the rest of this-as I was showing the other (error) pages I found from doing the YouTube downloading stuff.

    I figured out what you did wrong.  After you choose 9xbuddy, don’t click on the big blue download button that’s on the second line from the top of the screen!  You’ll get all sorts of junk like ones you posted.

    Look at the last screen grab that Martina posted.  On the right are a row of white buttons with blue text that say ↓ DESCARGAR AHORA.  On your computer, they’ll say ↓ DOWNLOAD NOW.  Those are the ones you need to pick!  The ones to download videos are the MP4 or the M4A.  Pay attention to the one you choose for downloading.  There are several options for resolution and with or without sound.

    I will just try Deturl next when I will order the wi-if device again from the library, And do you know of a way to download YouTube videos from iPhone to put them in the computer-think that it just need the phone cord attached to both the phone & computer to do it with, but don’t know if the iPhone can do it-to watch the YouTube videos on computer without the need of internet.-
    -Do you can find that it will still really work?
