    BorisZ,

    Step 3 in this tutorial makes no sense.  Please explain as I’m not seeing the “Download” option after having clicked on the page with the video I’d like to download from youtube.  Thanks.

    Hi Kurt,

    my apologies for not been much clearer with that step. What I mean is that once you add this url http://www.youtube.com/?nomobile=1 in Downloads Lite address bar, browse YouTube as you always do. Once you locate your video and click on its link to watch it you will get the options menu (the one you see right after step 4) where you can choose whether you want to Download, Copy or Open YouTube Video. So make sure you are browsing YouTube from Downloads Lite application interface and that you started YouTube from suggested url and not from http://www.youtube.com. I hope this will clear your confusion and thanks for reading this article.
