Is there a new way to download videos on Safari when using Lion?

Since I upgraded to Lion 10.7.3, the method I was using to download videos, from YouTube and other internet sites, no longer works.  This method (with Snow Leopard) involved going to the Window menu, clicking on Activity, and finding the video file in a list, and double clicking it.  Usually the video would still be downloading and would be a certain number of MB in a long list of files of various KB sizes.
Now, there is no downloadable file listed (in Activity) for the video I'm watching.  Is there a way to download the video without purchasing additional software?

If this can "help" you I remember that also in previous versions of OSX sometimes Activity Monitor did not show certain particular videos: I think it depends by the way the video is set on the web page (something too technical for me)
Anyway the best solution for downloading videos from the web will always be Firefox + the extension "DownLoadThemAll". Unfortunately there is nothing like it for Safari.
I have also tryed different Apps & Tricks for downloading easily videos from Youtube but the "Dream team" Firefox+DownLoadThemAll is always the best!
Maybe there is something similar with Greasekit but actually the "Activity" method works fine for me.

  • HT201272 Is there a quick way to download the latest episode when you have a season pass?

    I'm having issues downloading the latest episode in a season pass. They only way I can do it now is to get to each individual show page, and download. Is there no better/easier way to do this? I've asked Apple but they do not understand what I'm talking about and keep sending me to how to download previously purchased files.

    They are probably sending you this?
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    That's generally how to do it now.

  • Has youtube changed the way you download videos again?

    I have been using the pop out way of downloading youtube videos and now it doesn't seem to work anymore. Has there been a change and can anyone tell me the new way to download?

    hello tjh1211, yes firefox 21 now makes use of the codecs that are included in your OS that enable it to directly play mp3 files. in order to disable that, enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''media.windows-media-foundation.enabled'''. double-click it and change its value to '''false'''.

  • HT4759 I see ios7.0 in my settings but there is no way to download it.

    I see the IOS 7.0 in my settings but there is no way to download it.

    You're welcome.  I've never set up an alias but according to this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622,
    "The text you provide becomes the email address ([email protected]). An alias must contain between 3 and 20 characters."
    This certainly implies that the alias is not required to be your registered name, and only becomes the prefix for a new @me.com address.  There might be something going on with the servers right now as they are probably very focused on getting ready for the iPhone 5 pre-order release, which is supposed to happen any minute now.  You might have better luck if you waited a while.

  • With Muti-clip gone from FCP X, is there a new way to sync two cameras with FCP X

    With Muti-clip gone from FCP X, is there a new way to sync two cameras with FCP X

    I film with two cameras then copy the files from each camera into their own folders. I then use ClipWrap to convert the MTS files into AIC.  If the recording was one long contiguous session, many cameras will split the MTS files into 2GB chunks.  ClipWrap will Convert Multiple to Span to reassemble them properly.  With the AIC .MOV file from ClipWrap, I then use FCP X to Import the MOV files from camera 1 and camera 2.  I prefer to do it that way versus using FCP X Import from Camera.  I then move the clip from camera 1 onto the timeline in the "primary storyline" (FCP X terminology).  I drag the camera 2 clip above the camera 1 clip and line up the audio from the two cameras while that audio is still attached to the video so everything stays in sync.  FCP X has a way to automatically sync two soundtracks, but I have not gotten around to that yet.  With camera 2's clip attached to camera 1's clip as a "connected clip" above the camera 1 video, I then do an edit to go between the cameras as seems best to me.  When the connected clip of camera 2 video sits above the camera 1 video, it will take priority over the camera 1 video.  I then split camera 1's video clip taking out sections when I want to go back to the camera 1 view. Of course I can trim camera 2's clips until I get it the way I want it.  Since FCP X uses the magnetic timeline concept, and camera 2's clip is "connected" to the camera 1 clip, as you split and trim camera 2's clip, everything will stay in sync across the two camera "tracks".  When there is no camera 2 video above the camera 1 video, camera 1 video will be seen.  When camera 2 video is above camera 1 video, camera 2 video will be seen instead.  With a single editing pass, I can then do all the editing I need to go back and forth between two cameras.  The same concept is expandable to other camera "tracks" as long as you are using vertical position in the timeline to determine which camera is seen when.  If you would like for it to look like a multi-camera track composit like before FCP X, you can simply select all your clips and make a compound clip out of it.  You will then see the multiple camera clips side by side in a single "track".  Double click on that "clip" in that "track" to go into the structure and editing individual "tracks" around if needed.  Think of a compound track as what a sequence used to do.  Anyway, there may be other, and easier ways to do this, but with a single edit through my recording, I can easily and visually cycle back and forth between camera views.  It's just that things are called differently now ... and, as of this time, we do not have a single button camera switching function to let us view multiple cameras simultaneously and switch between them using a keystroke for each camera.  Still, I have a way to do it, and it has worked very well for me, in fact I was pleasantly surprised at how easily I could do multi-camera in post.  Hope this at least gives you one option.  Others may have a better way.  Best wishes.

  • I have a Sansa mp3 player that is full of tunes I would like to transfer to itunes. I've read other forums, but they are a bit old. Is there  a new way I can do this?

    I have a Sansa mp3 player that is full of tunes I would like to transfer to itunes. I've read other forums, but they are a bit old. Is there  a new way I can do this?

    You will need to consult the documentation for the Sansa to learn how to get the tracks off of the player onto your computer. Once they're on the computer, either drag the tracks into the iTunes window or use the Add to Library command under the File menu.
    Regards.

    Have you copied your content over from your old computer and onto the new on ? If not, and you still have your old computer, then there a number of methods described on this page which you can use to copy your library over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 . If you no longer have your old computer then have you got a backup of your content that you can copy onto the new computer and add into iTunes ?

    I thought that to have a longer frame rate you just need to have a longer sample set.

  • Are there any new All-in-one printers for sale that use the CLI-221 cartridges?

    We have a MX870 Printer that needs to be replaced but new cartridges were just purchased from Canon.  Are there any new All-in-one printers for sale that use the CLI-221 cartridges?

    The MX922 (known as the MX926 in Australia) is supported by 10.10 and Windows 7. Whatever site you were looking at may not have updated their details. Here is a link from the Canon Australia web site showing the drivers and applications for this model for 10.10.
