Can you download utube video to my commputer?

Yes sir, it is possible. For my suggestion, though, you have to be using Firefox as your internet browser. Download Firefox if you don't already have it. Next you'll wan to look up Firefox add-ons. The add on you need if called UnPlug. Download that add on. Once it's complete, you should ber able to open the add on through the Tools tab. To use it, simply go to the youtube video you want to download. With the page still running, open the UnPlug program. A list of 3 possible downloads should populate. Then select one and begin the download. That's all there is too it. Be aware of one thing though, all videos downloaded form youtube will be flash videos (flv). You have to have the right player to open these files. I recommend the VLC media player, You can download it at http://www.videolan.org/

Try DownLoadThemAll Tools. Works for me, but you will also need a good flash player. FLV Player works good, and both are free!

you download the utube videos to your laptop, and copy them to external disk like flash disk, then send it to your friend. hope it is helpul.

I use http://www.idesktop.tv/ and work great, just subscribe (free) and start downloading on your favorite format.
