How to get Internet Download Manager on Pale Moon 33

How do I get Internet Download Manager on Pale Moon 33? Whenever I try to download it, I get this error:

Assuming you're talking about the extension, .xpi, you could ask IDM to update it for PM 33.

You could manually change the .xpi's install.rdf to allow installation into PM33.

Note that manually making a change to allow an install does not mean it is compatible.
But you could do so & see if that alone works.
(You might assume that is sufficient, & it may very well be.)

Here is a copy with that change made to allow for installation into PM 33:

(As noted above, after install, if it works is a different question.)


install.rdf:

Code: Select all

<              <em:maxVersion>32.*</em:maxVersion>
>              <em:maxVersion>33.*</em:maxVersion>

It says I need access in order to access that.

And I guess you missed, Internet Download Manager addon is not compatible with Palemoon 33.

I changed it, but how do I get the extension on Pale Moon from there?

Oops.
You should be able to download now, https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NbhVOe ... sp=sharing.


(I try to avoid google & didn't really pick up on their sharing dialog
And not familiar with a different, "nice" place to host files.)

I changed it

If you changed the install.rdf, you replace the existing with the changed version (within the .xpi) [then just drag the .xpi into PM].

It works! But it won't let me download videos from YouTube like it does in Chrome since the video download button doesn't appear. How do you fix that?

(I know nothing of the IDM program itself.)
