Below is a link to "learn how to use." http://dvdvideosoft.com/guides/free-youtube-to-mp3-converter.htm Below is a link to a "step by step guide" http://dvdvideosoft.com/guides/free-youtube-to-mp3-converter.htm *III. Converting a File From Youtube: Once the program starts for the first time, you are taken to the internet. Just press alt plus f4 or close this window. You are put back into the program's window. Tab across and you will notice the following options: Auto: If this box is checked, Youtube to mp3 converter will automatically start converting a file when the link is copied into the clipboard. In Windows seven, the song is put in to the "music" folder and in Windows-xp it is placed into "my documents" in the "my music" folder. I placed my "music folder on the desktop for ease of locating it. Formats: Here you have a list of formats a file can be converted. One can arrow down through these and leave the one highlighted to be used. The format of mp3 is the default. Quality: Here you can select a quality of the final product. I left this on the default. Edit: I don't use this one. I am not sure if you can type in a search hear or name the file you download. Sorry for my lack of knowledge on this edit box. I don't use it. Options: This is obviously where several things can be set like the default folder where files will be downloaded and more. Paste: This is the last of the choices. The option is used if you are manually inserting a link into the program. However, I have it set to auto which takes away a few steps and makes things easier. You must make a few changes under options in "advance ." 1. Tab to "options" and press the spacebar. 2. Press shift plus tab once to arrive at the top of the nearest property sheet. 3. Press the right arrow until reaching "advanced." 4. Tab once and make sure this checkbox for "auto" is checked on. If you checked it on in the first program screen as mentioned above, it will be checked here. 5. Tab again and press the space bar to check to auto paste url from clipboard." 6. Tab to okay and press enter. Now lets get a song. I must make sure to note, when downloading files from youtube, the youtube to mp3 converter program must be opened first. 1. Open your internet browser. 2. If you have youtube in your favorites, go to it. This can be done in Internet Explorer by a. Press alt plus a. b. Press the letter y until landing on youtube and press enter. Sorry I can not speak for other Internet Browsers yet. 3. If you did not land into the edit box, press the letter e to be placed into the search edit field. I actually press control plus the home key and then press the letter e and always land into the edit field. If using a mouse, click into the edit field. 4. Type in a song you would like to obtain. If you can not think of one, try this one. Taylor swift 5. Press control plus the home key. If using a mouse, move to the first heading. 6. From the keyboard, using my example, press the letter h until reaching "taylor swift - begin again." 7. You will probably get an advertisement first. Once the music starts playing, from the keyboard press alt plus the letter d. Uif using a mouse, move to the address bar. 8. From the keyboard, press control plus the letter c for "copy to clipboard." If using a mouse, clikc your right mouse button and select "copy." 9. If you press alt plus tab, the percent of the download will be spoken. It probably shows up on screen as well. 10. When the song is finished being converted, you will hear a short ding or chime sound. 11. In order to check out the download file: a. In Windows seven, 1. press the start button once. 2. Tab once. 3.

Just tab to close and press the space bar or click on close. *IV. Deleteing Files From Youtube to mp3 Converter: I am not sure if this actually needs to be done. However, I find it much easer to delete the files from the converter's program window every so often. When you open the converter, you will notice all previous downloads still in the program window. Simply a. Press the application key. b. Arrow down to "clear history" and press enter. This does not delete the files you downloaded from the computer's music or "my music" folder. It only deletes the title from the program window. to subscribe, send an email to dthomps...@mchsi.com with a request to subscribe in the subject.

Sound Taxi worked a treat. However the problem is I cannot seem to save it as just audio. I tried aac and it wouldnt play in my media player of choice, Winamp. I then tried Mp3 and it couldn't convert because, apparently, there was no data to convert. I'm like what gives, as it converted to Mp4 just fine. Bear in mind I'm using the trial so only got the first 3 minutes of the video. But at least it worked. Not sure if I'm going to purchase it though because of problems saving just the audio portion. Thanks for all your help. Chris.
