Yes, since utube is internet, it supports it and other internet based videos. It cannot be updated to windows XP or 7 since it is a Mac based computer it is a mac platform. In order to add a pc platform you would need to install a virtual pc program and then load windows into it. To do both mac and pc, you need a much more powerful computer for 2 platforms that are quite different. This is a great intro mac, but if you want a pc (Windows platform) you need to buy a pc.

Stuff like flash (youtube) is very processor (cpu) dependent; I recently put this in an old machine which had an old intel core 2 duo e4700 and it was fine. So compare that with your own setup.It did seem like it was stuttering if anything else was running. It might be worth it to put another 10 dollars into the video card, but if all your going to be doing is running youtube video it's fine. (Although seriously consider bumping up slightly.)

I am still learning and I did not set mine up for that but you can view these in a number of ways with lots of different software.I am using ISPY freeware and you can specify a youtube channel I think from there. also works with VLC media player. just set up the ip and pull it up.also Airvision comes with it for monitoring as well.

Hi Your question made to download the 2.5 and install it on windows 8. It did work well. I can not watch real time video but it does record. I have not tested other features.

It probably is because most drivers are given to Microsoft so their automatic updating can supply everything. However, make it clear to the seller who is too lazy to spend an hour of so going through the Toshiba website. It's like my camcorder. It was made while XP was still an option for operating systems. It wouldn't work with windows 7 but after I hooked it up to my laptop, windows found it & the next time windows updated, a couple of framework updates & there, was my camcorder listed among the other updates. Just make sure that you can return it if it doesn't. Remember, you have the upper hand because the seller hasn't done the homework for the buyers.

It's not used for that purpose. All you need to do is google for an application that will allow downloading of youtube videos to your computer.

actually the DVD works very well now with the netbook I have. I should update my last comments..soon - the window XP model was from a few years back 1005HA. But I don't see why this hardward is not working with the new one. There is a support number sticker on the netbook bottom. You can call just double check and will send if you don't have it.

The Aspire One I had ran on Windows XP. So I gave up on watching any videos...not enough memory. Kept stopping to buffer and buffer etc. Since Windows 8 supposedly uses a much lower amount of memory and thus frees it up for other programs, maybe it would work ok. But can the hardware support Win 8? I don't know. Bottom line is if streaming video is critical to you, look at another model. This is my personal experience and I am not an IT professional.

"software" appears to be an OLD windows generic video cam driver from MicroSoft so it might be worth a try to use the one that MS builds for Win 8 instead of the older one that they package with their product?

Only know that Windows XP to 7 work with it. Not too sure about Chrome stuff?

You can try to download it. If it doesn't you can in the control panel switch the window version to an earlier version of window. I know for a fact that the software is compatible with most window version up from windows xp
