Shannon,? I began the download process, using Allavsoft with an brand new external HD attached to the laptop.? The external drive is 3 Terabytes with a nice, heavy duty cable.? It should be ready for the job.

I had mixed success so far and have paused the operation.? I attempted to have the download go directly to the external HD, but it nevertheless defaulted to my Allavsoft folder on drive C.? I'm going to re-check my settings and give it another try today.? The Settings screens are what I'd describe as "sensitive" and sometimes revert to the default.? I don't think I've neglected to make sure the settings are saved, but I'll definitely check that too.

So Shannon and Jaya,? both of you then manually move all of the episodes for one class into a designated class folder?? That's ton of work, but I'm willing to do it if that's the best method to use since I'm downloading my entire playlist.

I did email Allavsoft about the external drive as the destination for the download.? They responded quickly.? It certainly appears that they don't really recommend having the downloads sent to an external drive b/c it may cause a download failure.? Here is Allavsoft suppport's response:

Please to set the hard drive as the output location and then move the?
downloaded files to your external drive.
Please click Option-> General ->Browse to select your hard drive as?
output location.
If you still insist use an external drive as output location which may?
cause download failed, here is guide:
If you use an external hard drive, let's say, the external hard drive?
is named X:, then simply set "File Naming" to?
"X:\mybluprint\%(title).%(ext)" in "Option - Preference...", and then?
resume all downloadings by Pressing "Ctrl + F5" in Allavsoft.

Obviously,? I'm still a little lost with this process!? Anyone with any suggestions, chime in, please!

Mary

Jaya,?

That's exactly where it is.

I've paused all of the downloads b/c it's obvious that I may have a couple of settings that just aren't right.? I've entered the file location, but not on the screen you're showing, so I'll correct that.

Also,? I've noticed that even though I thought I had correctly configured it to download entire classes in one go, it's downloading individual episodes and putting them individually into the Allavsoft folder on drive C.? Then I have individual episodes instead of whole classes.? Big problem to fix there.

So I've got more questions:

1.? I think the best approach is to delete everything in the Allavsoft download queue and the episodes I've saved.? Then I'll have a fresh slate on E drive and in the software.
2.? Go back to square 1 to check all settings.
3.? What does it mean to "convert" and to "merge"?? Is that something I need to do or does Allavsoft do those operations on its own?
4.? Reassure me that if configured correctly,? the entire course should download as one entity that will play all the way through once downloaded.

I sort of understand what's going on with the process, but am very unsure of myself since its new territory.? Learning curve!

Mary.

I've gotten the playlist loaded and downloaded a class, but it didn't load to to external HD on Drive E.? It was saved somewhere in drive C on the laptop.

Can anyone help me with what the problem may be?

I'll attach photos.? Tech savvy help needed.? I've emailed Allavsoft, but it's 1AM there, so there won't be much help for awhile.

Mary

I just emailed Allavsoft late last night and they've already sent me the links I need to begin.? I've got a 3 terabyte external HD, so with your information about downloading yours, Shannon, I think I've got plenty of storage for 240 classes.

I spent most of yesterday downloading the Pdf Course materials to the external drive.? I've only done 80 classes thus far, but I'm making progress.? The process of organizing the course materials has given me time to set up a file system for organizing the videos once they're completed.

I'm learning a ton with this major effort.

The issue of the missing archived classes is a real concern, Jaya.? I may need to take a look to see if some of my classes have also disappeared.? They're not my faves anyway, but still, we need to nail that down at some point.

Thanks to all for sharing your experience.

Mary.

Well, they are making a lot of money?this month! I'm sure this is a big windfall

I heard back from Allavsoft with a new link and I've downloaded one class and am in the process of downloading another. I'll forward their email to this list so you have the link. David (from Allavsoft) also has provided a link to download your whole library at once but I don't want to do that. I prefer to organize my videos as I download them and I'm moving them off to an external hard drive as I have too many videos?and photos on my laptop and I've already?run out of space and had to move to bunch of stuff. I don't want to have to do that and sort out the mess if this fails in the middle.?

I also don't need to download my whole?library?as many are already downloaded.?

No. They?have specifically written code to block that. On an Android tablet, people have figured?out how to interrupt the download, find the file and move it to someplace else because there is a temporary storage location.

But otherwise no.?

I bought the Allavsoft license yesterday because apparently the customer support will fix the login issue for paid licensees. I've emailed them as noted in the article but have not heard?back yet. If I don't hear within a week, I am going to contest it via Paypal and my credit card.?

Interestingly, I noticed that one of my archived classes is gone forever. I had downloaded it when they?allowed us to download classes earlier after a big ruckus when they suddenly?no longer allowed it. But i had not downloaded the materials as I could do so at any time. i was downloading those yesterday when I discovered that the class was simply gone. Not the greatest class but still. I wonder?how many others are like that.

p.p.s. Rumor on Ravelry is that the Bluprint?classes are being rolled into Peacock TV due to some tweets made by Peacock that were?screenshotted but have been?now deleted. That may have been an option that they considered and rejected thereby closing it down, or it still may be part of the strategy. I am not at all inclined to believe conspiracy theories but thought I'd pass this on.

p.s. I should add that I don't grudge spending the $20 on buying the software. But given?my track record of things working, I don't want to try it till I hear from someone that it worked. Lots of things that people say worked for them aren't working for me and this one is a solution that no one has yet reported on saying it worked for them. That website is the only one cited.?

I believe Allavsoft was the way that people?downloaded stuff from Craftsy before Craftsy shut it down. I saw some older?posts about it when?I googled.?

It would be good if you tried it. I tried the free?version and it couldn't log me into Bluprint. Someone?said they paid and it worked. But given how many of those things didn't work for me, I'm reluctant to try it. I did find a video downloader that worked but the recorded video was awful - choppy and the audio?and video didn't match.?

The screen recording from the Mac OS screenshot app works beautifully. I get good quality video and sound. It is time consuming but I'm putting it on and doing other things as it records.

Frankly I want good quality or I'm not going to watch the videos again.

I have not tried it yet, but a local friend found directions at for downloading her classes using a software called Allavsoft.

I am recording the classes I consider critical. It is time consuming but I'm not waiting for them to give me a download option. if they do, I'll download all the classes. But there are ones I don't want to lose

Anybody heard anything? ? I have 12 “own forever” coupons for classes that I earned. ? I hope I get to choose them. ? ?. ? I should have a long time ago. ?

I keep hoping that someone will step in and buy the company and put it all back to the old Craftsy. ?
