Can you download the new online classes?

[Bayla]

One of the things I liked about the first classes was the ability to download the videos so you can still watch them once your time is up so to speak, a feature which I believe people who joined the class in recent days haven't been able to access.

So will we be able to download the new lessons? From reading the overview, I get the feeling that we'll only be able to download the pdf files and the pictures but not the videos I'm still rewatching the videos for the umpteenth time even though I finished the first course 6 weeks ago!)

Hi Bayla,

There aren't any Download links for the videos so you can't do it automatically, but you can use the temporary internet files method... let me know if you want help with this.

Yes after watching the movie -- when it completed I used the Save as Quicktime Movie option and it saved the file -- but windows didn't recognize it at first.

When I renamed the file adding the .mov as the extension then it magically became a quick time movie without any glitches.

With Quicktime Pro, you only need to wait until the movie has downloaded fully - not for it to play all the way through as well (which you do with the temp. internet files method).

How does the temp internet files work for saving the online tutorials?

Jack,

Here's how to do it:

1. Clear your temporary internet files, this will make the search quicker that's all. In Internet Explorer go to Tools > Internet Options and click the "Delete Files" button.

2. Then go to the video that you want to download, click on the link to watch it and let the video play all the way through to the end.

3. When the video has finished playing, go to Tools > Internet Options again and this time click on the "Settings" button.

4. In the next window, click the "View Files" button. This will display your temporary internet files. The video will be the largest file there by far. It will have the Windows Media Player or Quick Time icon next to it, depending on which format you selected

5. Right click on this file and select Copy, then go to a permanent Folder location in Windows and paste it there.

Let us know how you get on...
