Solve Mac YouTube downloader problems easily
It is safe to say that YouTube is the most popular video hosting service that keeps on getting updates and innovations. There is always something new in design, security, and functionality. But no matter how popular it is to watch videos on YouTube, it is still convenient to download the videos sometimes.
To download a video from YouTube one needs a special plugin, app or web service. But with ever updating YouTube sometimes the tools you used before with no problems suddenly stop working. So what to do when a YouTube downloader does not work? Read the answer below.
My YouTube downloader is not working. What should I do?
First of all you'll need to understand the reason why your YouTube downloader doesn't work. An unnoticeable for you update on YouTube may affect a downloader you've been using quite significantly.
As an example we can use the case when in 2015 YouTube gravitated to HTML5 video player mode from Flash. And even though nothing has visually changed for the viewers, lots of YouTube downloaders stopped working.
Those developers that reacted really fast, updated their YouTube downloaders in a blink of an eye. For example the users of Airy downloader may not even remember such issue existed.

However it is important how the software developer will react when you report a problem. Will they do their best to fix the issue and provide you with the solution?
