Thankyou so much to Charlie Legend for making and sharing the following documents with the purpose of assisting the spread of Donald's information.

A).....How to download YouTube videos
Method 1
How to download Youtube videos in 5 seconds to computer quickly (3 easy steps no software)
1) Go to any YouTube video on Youtube website.
2) In address bar, before “youtube” write “ss” and press enter.
3) You’ll see option to download you desired format, e.g. FLV, MP4 and 3gp etc.
4) Once the download has completed, click the ‘arrow’ and select “Show in folder”. This will redirect you to the destination folder
5) Once you have located the destination folder the file has been downloaded to, you can choose to play the file from that folder or cut and paste the file into another folder.
Note: you can also visit
en.savefrom.net/ - and copy and paste your link.
That’s it. Your video file will be downloaded to your computer and take some time according to video size and length. Most of the people are unaware of this method and so they waste time on difficult ways.
------------------------------------------------
OR
Alternative Method.....Method 2..........
---------------------------------
1) Obtain free YouTube downloader software from the following website: youtubedownloader.com/
2) Click the green “Download 100% free” icon and wait for the application to be downloaded to your computer
3) Open the application and follow the on screen instructions to download the software to your computer
4) During the installation process you’ll be asked which destination folder/hard drive location you want to save your Free YouTube downloader software to, and whether you want to create a shortcut desktop icon
5) Select the hard drive location and destination folder of your choice
6) Tick the option to create a shortcut desktop icon
7) Once the software has been downloaded, open the software by double clicking the shortcut icon on your desktop
8) Open your browser and visit
www.youtube.com/
9) Search and view any video of your choice
10) Copy and paste the URL (link) to your YouTube software downloader in the empty panel space of the YouTube downloader software (this panel is below the headings “Window”; “Settings” etc.
11) Choose to download the link as an MP4 (video) by clicking “Download MP4 (HD 1080P)” or MP3 (audio) by clicking “Download MP3 (128 KPS)” and wait for the green progress bar to complete
12) Once your download has finished hover your cursor over the downloaded video or audio and right click to display a list of options (“Open file in default player”; “Open file location” etc.)
13) Click “Open file location” which will direct you to the folder your YouTube video link was downloaded to (this is usually a folder named “Free YouTube downloader”). If you have a video/audio software player, (such as VLC Media Player etc) your downloaded video should now display as an icon.
14) Play your video/audio by double clicking on the icon.
15) You can also “Cut” and paste your video to a different destination folder if you want, by right clicking and selecting “Cut”, choosing a different folder of your choice, right clicking and selecting “Paste”.
16) If you do not have a video/audio software player –learn how to obtain a video/audio software player by reading “How to download a video/audio player: VLC Media Player”
Be sure to use the techniques stated above to save hard copies of YT videos which you feel for some reason may get deleted (for whatever reason) -this way, they are yours forever and you can always re-upload them.
The only issue you will have now is Hard Disk space -because saving hard copies of videos and websites will take up space fast.
This is why I recommend having an external hard drive and you can purchase brand new, relatively cheap external hard drives from
www.ebuyer.com/

The same goes for saving website pages... Too many get deleted off Don's page... but we can always save them, and (re-post them) post them to the forum "completely intact" before it was deleted...

How to download a video/audio player: VLC Media Player
1) Visit the following website:
www.videolan.org/vlc/index.en_GB.html

C)..........How To Save A Complete Webpage For Offline Reading
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following information has been adapted from:
www.makeuseof.com/tag/save-complete-webpage-offline-reading/
Visit the link above to learn how to save complete WebPages for offline reading for the type of browser you currently use (details for Firefox, Internet Explorer and Chrome are explained in the article). I will detail how to save WebPages for offline reading in Chrome because this is the browser I currently use.
Chrome
Chrome has a Save as option. You can access it from the Page icon that’s next to the address bar (highlighted in red in the picture below, i.e. – ‘the hamburger icon’). You can also load the webpage and right click anywhere on the page to get to the context menu. Or do the quick keyboard thing with a press on Ctrl+S.
The Save As dialog window appears. Select Web Page, complete in the Save as type dropdown.
Once the download has completed, click the ‘arrow’ and select “Show in folder”. This will redirect you to the destination folder
The entire webpage can now be viewed for offline reading. The important thing is to locate the HTML file, open and select a browser. Once you get the hang of this you should find saving webpages a cakewalk. The HTML file is the required file to view the webpage which you downloaded.
Right click and hover the cursor over “Open with”. Select Chrome.
Your browser should open and display the Webpage completely for offline viewing. You can verify the webpage can be viewed offline by:
1) checking the URL – as can be seen in the example. It starts with “ file:
///” and not “
2) You can turn off your internet connection, locate the HTML file, and open it in your browser (as outlined in the steps above) –this should still display the webpage completely for viewing, although your internet connection is switched off. This confirms that all the steps you followed have worked.
Note: This method saves only one page of a website. Therefore if an article continuous onto four pages for example, you will have to save all four pages –because the links to pages 2,3, and 4 will not work otherwise.
Note: Video/and audio displayed on the webpage will not work using this method (which can be seen in this example). Use the steps outlined in “How to download YouTube videos” if the video/audio displayed on can be found on YouTube.
In this example, the video is not featured on YouTube and therefore, cannot be downloaded for offline viewing using the method “How to download YouTube videos".

The following article clears up the legal side of downloading YT videos (i.e. you can't) but then shows the reader where and how to download YT videos -and states (comments section) "We advocate nothing. We just offer advice.You're grown ups, you can choose how to use it."

Is it legal to download YouTube videos?
Is it legal to download YouTube videos? Is it illegal to download YouTube video for personal use? Many people would answer that question by suggesting it's something of a 'grey' area. Actually it's pretty black and white.

Downloading YouTube videos
Firstly, the legal side:
----------------------------------------
Google owns YouTube and, as we all know, part of Google’s business model relies on it making money through advertisements. Google provides free video content for visitors to YouTube to enjoy at their leisure, and the visitors return the favour in form of a website ‘hit’. The more visitors to a video it records, the more money it can charge to display advertisements. Download the video to watch it offline and, although Google recorded a hit the first time you came to the video, you'll remove any money-making potential it has for your subsequent viewings. See Above: Method 1 and Method 2, for how to download YouTube videos
Furthermore, downloading video from YouTube does breach Google's terms of service. Within Section 5.1 it states: "YouTube hereby grants you permission to access and use the Service, subject to the following express conditions, and you agree that your failure to adhere to any of these conditions shall constitute a breach of these Terms on your part: you agree not to access Content through any technology or means other than the video playback pages of the Website itself, the YouTube Player, or other means as YouTube may explicitly designate for this purpose" See Above: Method 1 and Method 2, for how to download YouTube videos
FAQ: If you are left wondering whether we are enabling downloading YouTube videos although it is a breach of terms the answer to that is [below]:
A: We do not advocate anything and expressly disagree to such comments. We are just offering advice. As an adult you can choose how to use it. Adults can make up their own minds.

Charlie Legendd.......Always happy to help, especially when the techniques I describe are easily grasped and will help exponentially. No more deleted references! How awesome is that? And because we have the hard data we can always share references with others -and once others have received it, they don't have to be online to read articles, listen to audios or watch videos. I think that is incredibly awesome!
