Quick Easy Tech Tips, Tricks and Reviews, with a little bit of Dog Stuff!
Have you ever had a large USB drive that only shows 200mb when you plug it into your Windows computer? Frustrating isn’t it!
And what makes it worse is that nothing you try in the “Format” utility will change it – it always says 200mb in the capacity drop down.
The reason this happens is that in some stage in the USB Drive’s life it has been plugged into a Mac, and it has done “Mac Things” to the drive. Thankfully, there is an easy way to fix it.
I have just discovered the EASIEST way yet to download, save and keep videos from Youtube! Its SO easy that it is scary.
To use Flash Video Downloader you need to be using the Cool, Free, and really awesome Mozilla Firefox web browser. In Firefox, open the “Tools” option from the menu bar, then open “Add Ons”. Do a search for “Flash Video Downloader”, then click install once the plug in is found. Once it is installed, restart Firefox and you will now have a new “Download” button.
All you need to do when you find something you want to keep, is to click the download button, select the format you want, choose where you want to save the file, and download away!
HOW COOL!
