Download Videos Amazon Prime To Macbook Air



Can I buy a TV show from Amazon Instant Video and download it to my Mac? The FAQ file is very confusing. It makes it seem like if you want to watch from a computer, you must stream it. The only time it mentions downloading is for the Kindle Fire, a device that I do not have, and I don't have a need for it either.

All I want to do is buy the show from Amazon, and download the video files. From there, I can just open the video files and watch them. Is that supported? Also, are these files protected in some way? I have a video converter, and I would really like to convert them to MP4 so I can watch them on my iPod Touch.

Can I watch a downloaded movie rental from Amazon Prime on my MacBook Pro? I want to watch it on my laptop, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to do so. The website says it can download to a Kindle and a PC and an iPad. You can't download it. None of the Prime Videos are downloadable - they are streaming only. You can stream any video you have rented or that you own by going to Amazon.com, and then going to the Prime Video store in Amazon. From there you can select your Video Library or purchase or rent any video in the Prime Video store.

Basically, Amazon explains pretty much anything you may want to understand. According to the help files on Amazon.com, this service (Downloading Amazon Instant Video) is only provided to Windows users. They make you download a special player to download the videos, and that player doesn't work on a Mac. So to speak, you cannot download Amazon Instant Video to Mac directly. Besides, Amazon bought files are DRM protected. However, you can still get Amazon purchased movies, TV shows onto a Mac for enjoying. Below is the step-by-step guide that walks you through the process on how to download & transfer files from Amazon Instant Video to a Mac. Keep reading.
