Unable to download videos.

When on the videos, there is no option to download. I scrolled down and numerous videos and there is no download option.

Is this because I'm currently on a trial account?

Thanks in advance for help.

Hi Bradley. Welcome to Treehouse.

You are correct. As long as you are on the "14-Day Free Trial," the videos are not available for download. Once you have a full (paid) account, the download link will be under each video, or you may download using iTunes.

So, there are 2 options:

1-- You can wait until your 14-day trial is up and you convert to a paid account.

or

2-- If you are planning on continuing with Treehouse past the 14 days, you can contact the Treehouse Support Team and ask them to move you to a paid account before your trial is up. This way the videos are available to you much sooner.

Keep Coding! :)

I see. It's ridiculous. There should be option for limited video download. Because we dont have internet at home. All we can do is download video from office and watch it and learn it at home. There must be some option to download at least one chapter or 1 course. so we come to know how easy the videos are to learn in trial period. thats what the trial period is for.

Anyways, thanks. i got the answer. I just sign up and trying to download one to watch later tonight but i can't. I think i should quit and find some other tutorial.

Thanks a million for the answer. :)
