You tube app videos won't play no more just a spinning wheel.

You tube app videos won't play no more just a spinning wheel. I've deleted history and data stuff and tried rebooting but still the same. Please help.

Are you using the YouTube app or Safari?
Could be the videos are Flash based, which Safari can't display.
Adobe has not made a version of Flash for the iPad.

Anybody else have a child with autism who is NOT happy about the new YOU TUBE app with upgrade. Now the ipad just sits there. Unfair of Apple not to give us option to downgrade to old softare.

We bought the Ipad 2 for our son who has autism. It was the first time he had something he was interested in (besides my Iphone) and we were so excited to see him carry around something that he loved. I upgraded to the new software and as everybody as discovered...NO YOU TUBE. I got the new You Tube app but it's so different and hard to use. This has created such a problem for us and besides the games he likes to play....the Ipad is useless. Now it sits and he uses an old phone someone gave us with the old you tube on it. We have this expensive machine sitting there and he is using an old iphone. I myself have tried to get familiar with the new You Tube app and it's so hard to use and doesn't always play videos. Apple is suppsed to be so supportive of the autism community and has sold MILLIONS of products to families affected by autism and now they don't give us an option to downgrade to the old software in order to regain the OLD YOU TUBE icon. Children with autism like things routine and familiar. This is NOT familiar nor is it easy to use. I'm sure we aren't the only family with a special needs child upset by this change.

YouTube now has an app:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/youtube/id544007664?mt=8
or
http://m.youtube.com/
Sign in with your YouTube ID. Save that site on your iPad's Home screen.

Support Centre Video won't play

InDesign Support Centre video "Getting Started - Create New Document" Video won't play. It just sits there with the waiting circle and does nothing. All other videos I've used so far are fine. Anyone shed any light on this problem?

Many thanks, works in Firefox! This is the only video I've found to exhibit this behaviour.

Videos won't play in Safari. Notice says, "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video." I have downloaded it, but no change. All videos play OK in firefox, but I like the controls in Safari better and want to stay with it.

Try deleting Flash cookies.

If that doesn't help, UNinstall the old Flash plugin first, then reinstall new.

Then restart your Mac.

Video won't play in app.

I purchased a workout app and it has links to videos on youtube to show how to perform certain exercises. The videos won't play. The error message states the video is unavailable. How can I correct this?

That is correct.

HT1430 I suddenly can.t access you tube via videos via my iPad . Tried via safari and you tube app on iPad but it says no videos and then ask me for you tube password . Never had to use a pass word

I suddenly can,t access you tube videos via my iPad. Tried safari and you tube app on iPad. I get no videos and then it asks for you tube password. Not had that before.

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

At you tube display video window but did not appear play, pause and sound bottons

at you tube display video window but did not appear play, pause and sound buttons, last night i watch the video at you tube perfectly.

It looks like a driver related issue specifically the video card driver. I suggest that you scan your computer with RadarSync so that you will know which drivers need some updating. Once you some results, you can either Google the updates or go to the HP's support website to get the latest updates or you can use RadarSync to update automatically. I hope this helps! David

Native You Tube app won't connect after 5.0.1 update

Since updating to 5.0.1, native You Tube app will not connect (error msg: "Cannot connect to You Tube"). Have re-synced, restored, cold rebooted, etc. - to no effect. No Restrictions set in Settings. 3G/WiFi connection make no difference. Can access youtube.com on Safari app. Any other ideas as to what happened to native YT app or what can be done to fix? Thx!

I am having the same problem. Siri was pretty functional (but not amazing) from the date I first got my iPhone4s in October. But since the latest update she is completely worthless! She cannot do anything, even simple recognition of my Contacts that was previously a breeze. I'll even say "Call John Smith" (for example) and she'll say, "I'm sorry, I cannot find 'John Smith' in your Contacts, but I found these Contacts," and it will then display "John Smith." Are you kidding me?
It's like having a conversation with my actual girlfriends now. Fail... I've called Apple tech support each of the last 5 nights but each time the wait is HUGE and I hang up after about 10-15 minutes. Seems like a lot of folks are keeping the lines busy - could be because of this issue.

My mac won't read my external harddrive's videos that I took with my Nikon. Half the videos won't play, and those are .avi files. WHY won't they play anymore and how can i retrieve them?

My mac won't read my external harddrive's videos that I took with my Nikon. Half the videos won't play, and those are .avi files. WHY won't they play anymore and how can i retrieve them?

What exactly is your problem? Is it, (a) your Mac doesn't read your external disk, or, (b) you can't retrieve your videos, or, (c) you can't play them, or, (d) you were able to play them at one point, but not any more.
What version of Mac OS X are you using, what app are you trying to play your videos with, what happens when you do, and what error messages, if any, do you get?

TS3274 Videos won't play. Not YouTube or any other videos. I also have no sound. Are these common failures for a three year old gen 2 iPad?

Videos won't play. Not YouTube or any other videos (just started today). I also have no sound, keypad clicks, shutoff click, etc. Are these common failures for a three year old Gen 2 iPad?

For the issue with the videos that will no longer work, try closing all apps and then reboot the iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
For the issue with sounds, you have system sounds muted.
Check the side switch above the volume rocker on the side of the iPad. Flip it the other way and see if you get sound from the apps, keyboard clicks, etc.
If not, double tap the home button to bring up the task bar at the bottom. In the task bar swipe all the way to the right. Look on the far left side and see if there is a speaker icon. If there is, tap it and see if the sounds on apps come back. Then tap the home button.
You can change how the side switch works to either lock screen rotation or to mute system sounds. You can go to Settings>General>Set Side switch to Lock Rotation or mute. If you choose mute, the switch will turn off apps sounds. Otherwise you use the task bar as described above to mute those sounds.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Unable to delete you tube history. You tube app keeps shutting down.

My you tube app keeps shutting down, when a video has loaded to play. Then returns to the startup screen... I have tried to delete the history, but the red delete buttons fades out an nothing happens.

One point. I don't have much iPad experience, but if I have too many films on the iPad , would this have a effect on the overall memory, and could this be the problem. If I delete the films from the iPad, will I still have them in the iCloud or library.

Rented video won't play

Rented video won't play. Download complete, played half way through video and turned to black screen. Tried to restart iPad but still no luck

Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. 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.
Or try this. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Or maybe this will work. Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. When the movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK.

Videos won't play in powerpoint when connected to projector

I've tried to find a solution for my problem online but haven't come across anyone with the same issue. I often work with powerpoint presentations with many videos in it. The videos play just fine on my laptop and also when hooked up to an external monitor, which I use when at work, both in slideshow mode and when previewing my animations. However, when I hook up my mac onto a projector the videos won't play - not on my laptop screen nor on the projected screen. I've tried rearranging the displays by draggin the menu bar to either display and also switched from mirror screens to presenter's view within powerpoint but nothing helped solve the issue. The only solution I found is to play the presentation on my windows partition - which is not really what I'm planning to do for long term...
I'm using Powerpoint 2011 for mac and this problem has occurred using multiple projectors.
Any help on how to solve this issue is highly appreciated!

I had the same problem today in front of an audience with 300 people (MacbookPro OSX 10.10, Thunderbolt-VGA adapter, PPT 14.4.6).
Here what I figured out so far:
1. It happens when you have PPT open and connect to beamer afterwards
2. You can resolve it (in my case) by quitting PPT and launching it WHEN connected to beamer
3. Yet, make sure Mac does not go into sleep mode or you get a lock-screen in the waiting time. if you do so, you get back to square 1. quit PPT again 2. restart it.
4. Also.... in one case I had to hit the volume control once to get the sound back even though movie was playing
So in short: Connect to beamer first, then launch PPT
I know it is only a symptom fix but it worked for me

Videos won't play in any browser

Just recently, videos won't play in any browser...Safari, Firefox. etc. It seems to happen with .wmv files. I reinstalled media player, but still have the problem.
I get this message.
"Cannot open the file. Verify that the path and filename are correct and try again"

First, check that Windows Media Player is set as the correct plug in - in Safari, go to help/installed plug ins. There should be a section marked 'Windows Media Player' showing 'application/x-mplayer2' and listing wmv files (amongst others).
Sometimes these arrors are caused by DNS failures. Ensure your system is fully up to date, and enter your ISP's DNS server IP addresses (usually two of them, sometimes three) in the 'DNS servers' box on the TCP page of the Network preference pane.
The DNS server IPs are usually supplied with the ISP's initial set up documentation, or located on the ISP's help page.
The reason it could be a problem is that in many iterations of MacOS X, the system is extremely sensitive to how quickly a DNS search responds. DNS is the process whereby a user-provided URL is converted into the correct IP address for internet lookup, so if the video source is held on a different server and the DNS process doesn't return a valid IP address in time, you would then get an error of the sort you describe.
