Question

download for video to my puter

by Oct 3, 2014 2:44AM PDT

Hey guys,

I have a macbook 0s x 10.7.5 and would like to download some videos to it I did a google search and found your YTD video downloader w/4.5 stars. However, in reading the reviews it is apparently full of malware and other problems.

Has this been corrected? What free program would you suggest if it hasn't been?

Thanks so much

I don't see such at CNET but at sites like

I'm sure such things could have added OFFERS and possibly unwanted programs but for now it's always best to get to the author's site for such things.

Hey Bob,

I went to the link and downloaded the program but my computer says it is a non-supported site. When I click on the link to supported sites my internet closes down. I've done this several times now and even rebooted (me default fixer).

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Rita

I had same link

I don't know why I can't open it. I did download the software and went to open it and that is when I got the message that the program ( or link site) isn't supported. I added that site in my allow cookies and that didn't help, either.
