How to download vids from twitter?

[syko2d4]

Hi,

Does anyone know how to download .mp4 videos from a twitter post using a desktop computer and accessing twitter through their web site?

I read some online instructionals about doing this, which say to copy the video's address, then place the letter "m" in front of the url, so it's "http://m.twitter..." then opening a new window at the url, and then right-clicking on the video and saving it, but that doesn't work, at least with a Mac that doesn't have a dedicated right mouse button or when using a trackpad (even though I tried changing the trackpad settings in a way that was supposed to accomplish this.)

Thanks for any help!

Hey there! I found this YouTube video that shows how to do it:

And if that doesn't work, you can always go HERE.

thanks for your reply!

unfortunately, I saw that vid and tried it, but it didn't work for me - don't know if things have changed since it was posted or if it doesn't work because I'm using Opera browser or because I'm using a Mac

as for the other suggestion, I'd rather not have a 3rd party doing it

thanks, though! :thumbs up:

You can try this also:
Right click on the date of the video, and copy the "link location" or "link address".
Then follow the instructions in the pic I attached.

Hi, syko2d4,

if I understand you correct, you can't take a right click, because of your hard- and software on the one hand, and on the other hand you don't want to use a third party page to load down.

So would a download manager like "Free Download Manager" or "JDownloader" an alternative for you? I think both of them should be able to download from twitter and are available for Mac also.

I hope this can help you. :thumbs up:
