You favorite it by clicking the star icon up at the top of your iPad screen, WHILE THE VIDEO IS PLAYING via streaming. Now, get on a plane or whatever, and watch your movies.
This tells Dropbox to download it into the iPad for offline viewing. If you want the movie to play even when you're not online, you have to "favorite" the file. Then, click on the movie file and it will start streaming. You should see the file there, once it actually gets completely copied there, from the computer. Then I went to the iPad and opened the Dropbox app. I simply ripped the DVD with Handbrake, then dragged the resulting video file into Dropbox, in the Finder. Now, with iCloud, you can skip the iTunes part. Still scratching my head over how fast this works. It took five minutes to upload to Dropbox on my laptop over wi-fi, but almost nothing to download to my iPad after clicking star in Dropbox for iPad. The Thanksgiving video above was the first one I download with this method. Voila, your video now resides on your iPad. Find your video on the iPad app and favorite it.Download the free Dropbox for iPad app.Go to Keepvid on your desktop and save your video as an mp4.So if you want to pull a YouTube video down to your iPad: Somehow your vid is saved directly to the iPad in no time flat. The simple act of favouriting in Dropbox for iPad begins a download process you barely notice. The trick is to first upload video to your Dropbox account on your desktop or laptop, then favorite it in the free Dropbox for iPad app. You can download video directly to your iPad over wi-fi or 3G without using iTunes. If you need a few more instructions please see the reference to this browser in my post Cool stuff I learned over the summer on social media. You also have a choice to let that video reside within iCab Mobile or download it to your Camera Roll. When it finishes it will be much higher resolution that you'll ever get from the Dropbox method I describe below. Hit that and your download starts automatically. Once you find it, click play, let it run for a few seconds, then press and hold your finger on the video itself. Use that browser to go to YouTube and search for the video you want. The trick is a wonderful browser app called iCab Mobile. It's a couple of years old now, so I feel I owe it to you - and hundreds of others who view it every day - to tell you there's a much faster and cleaner way to download video directly to your iPad. 31, 2012 Note - Thanks so much for clicking on this post. If you get seriously stuck, drop me a comment and I'll be glad to help.ĭec. Play with it for a while and you'll figure it out.
No worries, though, because the free iBolt Downloader and Manager app will do the same for you, in much the same way. 28, 2013 Note - The iCab Mobile app I refer to below has removed the YouTube download feature no doubt because of YT's TOS.
