[WORKAROUND] Youtube not loading videos

Well I just leave this in case it helps anyone
Lateley I've been having problems with youtube, sometimes the videos are loading extremely slow and some other times it just display the total lenght but never loads the video (I've tried leaving for like 30 min) it just shows the black box or the loading animation.
Somehow using Chrome User-Agent Switcher extension, if I set youtube domain to be laoded as Internet Explorer or Android/iPad the videos are loading perfectly and with any interruption.
I really don't knwo what is the problem but this workaround is working for me.
Hope this is helpful to anyone

If you connection speed is really that good not it does not make sense - but ....
Have you tried quitting the YouTube App completely and then restarting the iPad?
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You can also try resetting the iPad - hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. Then try YouTube again.

  • Youtube not loading videos on 3GS?

    Has anyone experienced a lot of trouble playing and searching for Youtube videos over 3G signal? It seems nearly every other time, a video either does not load or takes forever to load. Sometimes I get, "this video can not be played." Then I try again a minute later and it plays fine. I have not tried over WIFI to see if performance improved.
    I am running 3.0.1

    Atticaz, I just went to a WIFI hot spot and interestingly, the Youtube app was no better over WIFI.
    However, I tried going to Youtube.com on Safari and performance was MUCH better. Videos loaded fairly quickly and there was no locking up.
    I'd venture to guess that the Youtube app is buggy at best. I'd stick with accessing Youtube on Safari.
    Let me know if you have better success also.

  • YouTube not loading videos with 22mbps down?

    My new iPad (3rd generation) seems to be having trouble loading YouTube videos, often taking much longer than the actual videos are themselves. The worst part is that I have an average 22.2 Mbps download speed. This doesn't make sense. Has this happened to anyone else?
    Thanks.

  • Itunes rental on ipad says "could not load video"

    I downloaded a SD video from itunes 2 days ago to watch on a flight. About 10 minutes in I received an error message "could not load video". I've closed out the app now, restarted my ipad & connected to wifi thinking I could reinstall it. Nothing has worked so far. Do I just need to request a refund for the rental at this point or is there a solution?

    Because the rentals have only a 24-hour playback period and were not able to watch the entire movie, then report the issue to the iTunes Store.
