Saving Youtube Videos to iPhone The Puss Easy Way

Postby bill cobbett » Wed Jul 29, 2009 2:29 am

My Beloved Fellow Stylish iPhone Carrying Strugglers in the National ... ....er....Struggle,

Some of you chaps and chapesses may think me a little old and generally past my prime, and you might well be right, but let me tell you that Billc C. can keep up with the younger members when it comes to things Nerdish cos I can tell you my brothers and sisters that I am the ultimate Nerd. I have collected stamps, for instance, in days long past when stamps were real stamps. You boys and girls want to see a model railway? There's one in our attic here. I could go on but the hour is late and I know the younger members will want to be abed.

So anyway, here is how to to DOWNLOAD AND SAVE YOUTUBE VIDEOS for jailbroken iPhones. Mine is 3G system 3.0, but I think this new app I have discovered works for others as well. It'll cost you 2 USD.

No need to use a PC to do this now, this app YOURtube will knit seamlessly in to the existing youtube app.

1. On a jailbroken iPhone you should have a new store called CYDIA, it appears in the icons amongst all those silly games apps. This Cydia Store is the freed up counterpart to Apple's App Store. Launch it and find the app called YourTube. (YOURtube! got it?)

2. Purchase and install the app YourPhone for 2 USD with your existing amazon, google, paypal account.

3. Go to youtube app in the normal way on the phone and pick and watch a vid.

4. When the vid finishes, you'll see a new button has appeared in top right which says ....DOWNLOAD ... click it and the vid is downloaded and saved to phone memory. It's that easy. It's that piss simple.

4. Now go to the More section of your youtube app and you'll find a new download section has appeared. All the vids you select to download appear here. Click the vid you've saved and it starts playing from saved phone memory.

Best 2 USD I have ever spent. ... er ...not that I have ever spent dollars before.

you can add the videos normally in .mp4 format through itunes and they work... though saying that i always jailbreak and use ssh to login to the iphone so i can delete unwated apps add ringtones and more...

use a program called vdownloader and you can save the youtube videos and save them as iphone .mp4 format so you can add in itunes .. makes things easier and also for those who seem to be to scared or just simply dont want to jailbreak for whatever reason..

but im betting that app you can find it in installous for free ;)

thanks for the tip though i will download that instead... most of my apps are jailbroken ones.

though atm i have no wireless due to my ruter switching itself off for no reason .. crappy thing

Just use http://keepvid.com/ then you don't have to jailbreak or any of that illegal stuff. Download to laptop as MP4, then transfer to Iphone when required, simple. :P

So you buy a device that is useless ... unless you break it!

What's so clever about that?

The only thing you've got is the video camera bit, nothing else that I can think of. Btw they have video zoom now on Itunes now, maybe a video camera soon?

arese mou touto pou eipes theia!

let me explain.. unless you where just joking...

but the iphone is like a little mac computer it has the mac operanting system and they sell it so the hard drive of the iphone is set to read only..

like in windows when you right click a file and tick read only .. well apple have done that so users cant install 3rd party applications and only applications apporved by apple are that in the app store..

because they dont want people to share files such as ibluetooth and they basically cripple all the functions.. jailbreaking makes the disk wrightable so you can install the applications thay apple just dont want people to have.. so they basically sell you a phone and then tell you how to use it!

and the dev team some hackers jailbroke it and made the iphone worth buying :D

i hope that makes sense

Used Keepvid.com but it's very popular, often have to try several times to get a download.

Reh Palio, put your router under the A/C to cool down.

you really dont see the benefit of jailbreak? the wonders you can do with jailbreak? it opens the phones wings!

withotu jailbreak iw ould of thrown the piece of crap away long ago..

i cant have a simple theme without jailbreak a ringtone from my mp3s i can add any for free with ssh and sms tones and i can change the look fo the phone completely the battery logo the slider.. if u dont care about that there is always ibluetooth send/recieve files... cycorder which video recorder will only ever be available for the 3gs iphone..

sbsettings is amazing from cydia u can close applications like alt ctrl delete on your iphone you have so many more applications SSH so i can join the iphone and manipulate the files like delete unwanted crap like weather stock i mean who uses that crap? and adding ringtones with ssh and u can use it as a usb that way

i can have backgrounder which allows me to keep aps open in the background.. terminal .. thers just to many reasons to jailbreak, if you install cydoa u will see how many sweet applications there are and that make the iphone so much better
