This app is full of flaws. The downloaded file completely disappears not to be found! This is whether you use Safari or Firefox, tried both. Have tried all the suggestions in the posts above, but it doesn’t actually register as a download at all,as the download box doesn’t activate! Hmm…

I also can’t find it. It downloaded very well, but it isn’t anywhere. Who knows where I can find the downloaded mp3?

I can’t make it work.
When I start the song in YouTube, I open GetTube, choose Safari and click on the song I’d like to download. Then it just say that it had been downloaded, but I can’t find it anywhere?

I cant seem to find where it is supposidly downloading them too, has anyone found a way to sort it yet? I thought by putting the destination in preferences to desktop that it would send them there but I have had no joy with both safari or firefox :-(

Its still not working for me. I tried downloading them 2 software apps. Maybe there is other ones that I need to download before I can use it. Otherwise I cant think why it just says no connection or video disabled. Please help. If not, please recommend another similiar app. Thanks.

Worked flawlessly for me! Had Safari 4 open to John Mayer playing Human Nature and launched the app. Opened to window of the FF icon and the Safari icon. Clicked Safari. A window popped up saying John Mayer playing Human Nature with a Download button. Clicked it. And it started downloading. clicked on the file in my Downloads folder when done and it was added to iTunes. Suggest editing the preferences first if you are looking for mp3, as the default is mp4, and you can also select to download the HQ version if possible.
