My daughter posted videos of my granddaughter on YouTube. How can I
download these to save with photos of my granddaughter?
I downloaded and installed the Download YouTube Videos as MP4 extension
from
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/download-youtube/?src=cb-dl-mostpopular>.
And your SM will be full of extensions .. I have the minimum:
- French language
- French dictionary for spelling
- AdBlock Plus
- Vasco Card Reader plugin for reading the card of my bank.
- Belgium EID for reading my Identity Card
- FireBug to help my webmaster who use Joomla.
And I find this list too big.
What is the problem with having many extensions, especially if I
actually use them? I now have 24 extensions in my primary profile, but
I have not installed all of them in my alternative profiles.
Some of the extensions I have installed reverse changes to SeaMonkey,
the Gecko core, or the Toolkit product that I really did not want and do
not like. These include:
Add-ons Manager - Version Number
Find Preferences
Old Default Image Style
Others provide capabilities where RFE bug reports have been marked
WontFix. These include:
PrefBar ("buttons" implement several such capabilities)
Show my Password (bug #502258 submitted 2009-07-03, implementation
underway)
For me, the problem of having a lot of extensions when I upgrade SM in a
new version, the step 4. is greater.
1. Saving the mozilla directory where the profile reside, then Removing
all extensions.
2. Add/Remove programs - removing my current SM version.
3. Installing the new SM version.
4. Downloading and re-installing the extensions
If you increase the max version for the target application in the
install.rdf file in the installer for the extension or theme, you do not
have the bother of having them disabled when you get a newer version of
SeaMonkey. I bump up the max version to 3.* and do not have the problem.
