Youtube videos will not play on Ipod touch 5 after ios update

YouTube videos will not play on my IPod touch 5 after I updated the operating software. Any suggestions on how to fix? I uninstalled and reinstalled the YouTube app.

What exactly happens when you try?

  • Chatango not desplaying Icons, Most Youtube videos will not play.

    I do seem to be getting the issue were FF5 will not play Youtube videos, but this is not consistent. If I go to youtube to watch them, the will state there was an error in loading the video. But if I click on a video in MSN and it takes me to youtube, then the video will play.
    Also, avatar Icons on chatango are not showing up. So far these are the only two sites I've noticed a problem on.
    I tried to do a lot of trouble shooting myself, such as running my antimalware bytes, cleaning my cache and cookies, checking to make sure all the plug ins I knew how to get to were up to date, and that I had the latest version of Java Script and Flash Player.
    At this point...I'm at a lose as to what else it could be, or I can do. I've even re-downloaded FF5 and reinstalled it.
    This is getting really annoying, because I have Chrome as well, and it keeps crashing Flash. Explorer likes to think it crashed when I close it and it restarts. None of my Browsers seem to be working correctly right now.

    As you know, Firefox 5 contains publicly reported security vulnerabilities, so you probably should update again soon.
    You've probably read that there are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether this article has anything new that you haven't tried: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

  • IPAD youtube videos will not play on "base" wifi but play on "4G" wifi

    This problem affects my IPAD2 IPAD3, iphone 4s, iphone 4 with same presentation. All my devices on iOS 7.0.3 .. problem started a month ago about time first upgraded to iOS7  . my ISP at home upstream of my AP is ATT uverse .. ATT is also my provider of 4G wifi via my iphone ..  on my home network I use a higher end watchguard router / firewall appliance and for wifi the watchguard AP200s
    While connected to my home base wifi, I attempt to play youtube video (several different ways described below) the youtube opens and clearly finds the video but screen says “Playback error Tap to retry”
    Next if I turn on the hotspot from my iphone and connect all ipads etc via 4G WIFI then exact same steps result in the video loading and playing NORMALLY … ?? dns issue 
    Summary of troubleshooting steps so far;
    -my Microsoft surface tablet connected to base wifi .. if I run same exact link / video it runs perfectly .. so clearly the base  wifi is ok with surface tablet and youtube videos ..
    -all wired PCs etc at on network can run youtube videos with no issues ..
    -ipad - deleted youtube app and reinstalled … same problem
    -ipad - reset all settings  .. same problem
    -ipad - deleted all cookies and data on safari .. same problem
    -ipad – turned cookies to accept all cookies … same problem
    -ipad – deleted youtube app and forced to run from safari browser .. same problem
    -ipad – manually added 8.8.8.8 as alternative dns to the base wifi .. same problem
    -iphones have same behavior but the workaround is very easy here just turn off wifi .. forces down the 4G .. that works fine but for testing purposes I connect to base and all issues mentioned above on ipads are replicated
    -rebooted / power cycled ATT RG, WG router, WG AP200s … no change (did this near beginning of troubleshooting)
    Any ideas?

    Ok I will answer my own issue .. sort of
    Partially solved the problem. Seems there is a generalized problem with firewalls and the youtube / apple.
    Adding an exception to the firewall for AV scanning allowed the youtube app to start working but accessing the youtube via safari still does not work. Also after adding the exception I had to delete and reinstall the youtube app. 
    Again before adding this exception .. if I connected to to wifi via my ATT cellular hotspot .. both the app and the safari youtube videos played correctly.

  • Question: YouTube videos will not play, how do I fix this problem?

    I have recently downgraded my MacBook Pro operating system from Maverick to Mac OS X 10.6.8 to function with Adobe CS3 software. I am unable to view YouTube videos with Adobe Flash. Please advise as to how this issue can be corrected.

    That's a large part of your problem. YouTube has code that won't allow a version lower than 11.9 period, and even THAT is recommended to upgrade to 12. Flash Player 9 isn't even a question. It simply won't work. Even a PowerPC Mac running OS10.5 would be abke to use Flash Player 10.3.
    Download the latest FULL installer: Flash Player Plug-in (Mac OS X)
    Then follow the steps for a clean install in this PDF: Snow Leopard Install PDF

  • Recent iTunes purchases will not play on my iPhone after recent update.  Grey cloud and red arrow syndrome.  Please help?

    Hello,
    I need a bit of help.  I have made a handful of itunes purchases over the past few months.  Yesterday, I updated both my itunes and iphone with the latest updates.  Now, after the update on my iphone I can not get my recent song purchases to play (they played before I updated my phone).  There is a greay cloud with the downward pointing red arrow.  When I click the cloud/arrow nothing happens and it won't download.  I've tried a handful of things that I have found on these forums to no avail.  I've reset software, checked/unchecked this box on my phone and on itunes on my computer, removed and re-installed.  I know this is all a litle vague on what I have done, but please know I've tried and tried all kinds of advice.  Now, I have tpo reach out to the community and see if there is soomehting else that may work.
    Thanks,
    BG

  • I updated to the newest version of FIREFOX and now my NETFLIX won't play, YOUTUBE videos will not play. I was one of the people that donated to you this year.

    Hello Mozilla/FIREFOX I just updated to your latest version and now my NETFLIX nor my YOUTUBE plays anymore. I just get a black space without any volume or play symbols - this isn't working for me. I donated to your organization as I am a supporter but you'll need to honor your side of the street. What are you guys doing to fix this and by when will it be resolved?

    Hello,
    The Refresh feature (called "Reset" in older Firefox versions) can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, and other essential information.
    '''''Note:''' When you use this feature, you will lose any extensions, toolbar customizations, and some preferences.'' See the [[Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings]] article for more information.
    To Refresh Firefox:
    # Open the Troubleshooting Information page using one of these methods:
    #*Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''. A new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    #*If you're unable to access the Help menu, type '''about:support''' in your address bar to bring up the Troubleshooting Information page.
    #At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Refresh Firefox" ("Reset Firefox" in older Firefox versions). Click on it.
    #Firefox will close. After the refresh process is completed, Firefox will show a window with the information that is imported.
    #Click Finish and Firefox will reopen.
    Did this fix the problem? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    3. Tap the minus sign to close app
    4. Re-launch the app and test

  • Videos will not play on iPod

    Hey everyone,
    This is a strange one. I have about ten videos which I have purchased via iTunes. The videos play on iTunes, but they will no longer play on my 30GB iPod with video. The most bizarre part is that the iPod used to play videos, but now it no longer will. When I try to open one up on it, it starts to play, but it just shows a clip of the video in the spot where the album art normally shows--like it is trying to play the videos like a normal song. I have checked the Video Settings and they are all set up normally. Anyone have any ideas what to do?
    Thanks -

    Your question may receive better attention posted in the correct forum. : )

  • Many youtube videos will not play in Firefox - I get the error message - "no video with supported format and MIME type found"

    this is a recent problem - the videos play in Chrome and Explorer, but not in Firefox

    This happens if Firefox uses the HTML5 media player and can't play the media file.

  • Youtube videos will not play even though Flash Player is current

  • Safari 6.0.5 randomly stalls on loading pages which eventually load after hitting refresh several times. Also youtube videos will not play (blank window).

    For the last few days, I've been experiencing problems with Safari 6.0.5 stalling while apparently trying to load a web page. It seems to occur randomly either when manually entering a URL address or clicking a link on a loaded web page or web search results. Using the URL bar to enter a search term is also subject to the same random stalling.
    The problem is usually resolved by repeated reloads of the page (or re entering the search term or manual URL address). However the frequency with which I have to do this has become really quite annoying.
    Wondering if anyone else has experienced this and knows the cause/solution?
    Thanks
    Toby

    <edit: youtube issue resolved by uninstalling all my extensions. still testing safari to see if it continues to stall randomly>

    Have you tried resetting the dock by removing it from power?  What about resetting the iPod Touch? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
