how to download videos in safari 6.0

Thank you. I spent a good part of the day reading how to do this and no one was as clear as you.

Thanks again!

you are awesome!! thanks

It's so easy. There are many App which support downloading videos on Google. I know one of them which supports Mac 10.6. Maybe you can give it a try.

If it can't meet your need, maybe you can search on Google.

I found the following method to work for various web sites and is pretty similar to those mentioned above. This is using Safari Version 7.0.1 (9537.73.11).

1. Safari->Preferences->Advanced, ensure Show Develop menu in menu bar is checked.

2. Open the web page that contains the movie you want to save locally and start it playing.

3. Develop->Show Page Resources

4. Click on the page showing the movie and refresh it, you should see the Web Inspector window in the background also refresh.

5. Click on the Web Inspector window. There will now be an “Other” folder.

6. Open the “Other” folder and there will be one or more URLs that include the movie field extension somewhere within. e.g. “.mp4”,”.flv” etc..

7. Click in the link you think represents the movie.

8. The right panel of the web inspector will show the “Full URL”.

9. Select it from “http” to the end and copy.

10. Open a new browser window and pass into the URL. The movie should start playing there.

11. You should be able to right click on this movie and select “Download As…”

12. Once it starts to download (you can see progress in the download button), you can close the other windows.

You would need to check the TOS of the web site you are saving the downloaded movie from to ensure that you are not in someway violating the agreement you made to use the site.

figured it out, ok so everything up until the "others" folder is alright, for me the "others" folder is not always there but if you click the "frames" folder then click the dropdown for "embed" there should be a file name "videoplayback.." with a loading pinwheel double click that and voila

Thank You! And 3 Cheers for Open Source. This add-on is simply the best and it's upgraded along with Firefox all the time.

I found v. 2.2.9 here:

thanks!

Maybe I missed this being already said somewhere in the discussion.. but if you have installed the extension "Click to Flash" there should be in the settings a checkbox that allows for the option "Download Video" in the Safari Context menu, ie. when you right click on the mouse/trackpad with the pointer hovering over the desired video...

I'm using Safari 8.0. Goes straight into your downloads folder as mp4...

Oops yes I see that jandewl already said it above!!!
