Note

You cannot download and save streaming videos from Vimeo using the download options below.

Download within Vimeo

Unlike most video services, some of the videos on Vimeo can be downloaded to a computer. If the download option for a video is available, you can click the Download button below the video, next to the Share button, as shown in the picture below. After clicking the Download button, a list of available formats is displayed. The most common video format available for download is the SD format.

Note

The download option is not available for all videos. Users must have a Business, Plus, or Pro account to enable their videos for download by other users.

Saving a Vimeo video using another service

There are also third-party websites that allow you to enter the URL of the video you want to save to your computer and get a link to download the file. Below is a simple three-step process to download any Vimeo video.

Note

If you are at a school or job that is blocking Vimeo, these steps may not work.

Vimeo Video Sharing

1. First, go to Vimeo and navigate to the video you want to save. When you've found the page, press Ctrl+L on your keyboard to highlight the text in the address bar, and then Ctrl+C to copy the Internet address.

2. Once this address is copied, paste that URL into the text field below by clicking inside the box and pressing Ctrl+V on your keyboard. Then, click the Download Video button.

3. If done properly, a new window will appear displaying a preview of the video, similar to the one shown below. Click the drop-down list to the right of the green Download button to view the available video formats and quality. For most users, we suggest downloading the MP4 format. Other available formats may include FLV, 3GP, and WebM. Once you have selected your format, click the appropriate download link.

After the file is downloaded, it will be available in your downloads folder.

I still can't download a video

If after following the above steps, you do not get a preview like our example, make sure that the link you are using works by opening the page in a new window. Once verified as working, try the above steps again. If the steps continue not to work, try refreshing this page by pressing the F5 key on your keyboard and following the above steps again. If that still does not work, you can try installing a utility to download videos on Windows, Linux, and Apple macOS computers.

It is only saving as audio and not video

How To Download A Vimeo Video To Your Computer

Make sure you are choosing the 'MP4 360p' or 'MP4 480p' option from the download link. If you choose 'Audio MP4 128,' it only downloads the audio and not the video. If you did choose the right download link to download the file, it is very likely that the player you are using does not have the necessary codec for video files. Download the free VLC player for your computer and try to play the video file from within VLC and not the player you are currently using.
