Embedded youtube videos blank in safari - ipad - iOS 6.1

Title says it all - I've tried everything I've read about trying and nothing works - been a problem for the last couple months. Anybody else experiencing the same problem and found a fix to it?

Wouldn't know which video to watch since all I see is a big blank white spot where folks embed videos on the web. Takes away the need for a hyperlink so how would I ever find what was embedded?
Have to say it brings the user friendliness of the iPad and iOS down tremendously in my opinion.
Very disappointed if what you say is accurate as a global, "it just ain't gonna work no more," statement. It's like a book with pages ripped out.
Can I scrap 6 and reinstall 5 so it'll work as it had for the past year or two?

AirPlay fails on embeded youtube video (livestream) from New iPad to Latest gen AppleTV.

Hello,
I just purchased a new Apple Tv (03/24/2014) and tried to airplay an embeded youtube video from Safari and Chrome on my iPad and received an error. Airplay is working fine from the youtube app, and other apps as well. I've done some poking around and wasn't able to find any concrete answers as to why it's not working. Apparently this used to work prior to sometime in August (not sure exactly when) of 2013. Any helo would be much appreciated are this is one of the main reasons I purchased the Apple Tv.

Hi IntroMike.
Take a look at this URL in the XBMC forum.

This discusses the issue you are seeing. It seems to be specific to the Youtube app and some embeded videos.
There is no known solution at this time apparently.

Cs5.5 embedded youtube is blank in Safari, in firefox "file not found"

Dear all,
I embedded youtube and vimeo videos in a website in dreamweaver 5.5, in Safari the space is blank, firexfox gives me "file not found - the files under /embed/(embed code) could not be found.
An older file with embedded youtube works perfectly, but if I put in a new embedded video in this file, same phenomenon - blank in Safari. Since I have not embedded videos for a couple of months I cannot relate this behaviour to any update I made.
I have the last version of dreamweaver cs 5.5. Yesterday I updated Safari, MacOSX 10.7.5., Java, emptied cache/cookies, reset Safari, and put Safari to 32bit mode. Nothing changed.
Thanks for looking.
Tobias

Did you upload the video files to your server?
The message "file not found" can mean a number of things...
     1. The video files were not uploaded
     2. The video files were uploaded, but to the wrong location (placed in wrong folder)
     3. The links to the videos are pointing to the wrong locations (maybe your hard drive instead of the server)
     4. Your html page is cached by the browser with outdated links (refresh your browser cache)
Without seeing the page in question, it's all guesswork. Could you post a link to your page so we can take a look?

Embedded YouTube videos don't work on Safari on the iPhone.

Sometime after June 15, 2013, embedded YouTube videos stopped working on web pages on Safari on the iPhone (iOS6). They work on Safari on the Mac and they work in the iOS YouTube app. I see the preview frame and the play button, but when clicking the play button, the frame goes black and nothing ever plays. This worked up until 6/15 and the pages haven't changed. Did Apple do something to stop them from working on the iPhone recently?

You may have turned off an option in Flash preferences to not allow sites to store Flash cookies on your machine. Some videos made in Flash and served from third-party (non-YouTube) pages expect to be able to store Flash cookies, so the videos may not work with this Flash option turned off.
Go to [https://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.html Flash Global Storage Settings Panel] which is served from Adobe/Macromedia's site and check the "Allow third-party Flash content..." box, and the box for "Store common Flash components..." where you can then manage sites you have already visited. You'll have to reload the video page after you change this setting.
Also, leave site feedback on those sites where you experienced the problems encouraging them to use HTML5 for serving video content instead of the proprietary Flash format.

Safari stop playing embedded youtube videos

Hi
I am having trouble with Safari 4.0.5 (6531.22.7) which suddenly refuse to play embedded youtube videos. Safari show the video in a web page but when played the youtube default play display "an error occurred, please try again." and Safari display in the status bar "one error in opening the page, for more information, choose Window->Activity". Now when I look in the activity window it show "forbidden" beside the video file.
Strangely I can play the same video from the youtube main page without any errors.
I have already done the following:
- checked permissions with Disk Utility.
- Reset Safari
- Empty caches
- Removed com.apple.Safari.plist
- Uninstalled, re-Installed Flash plug-in
but the problem still persist. Help in resolving will be highly appreciated.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
YouTube streams content using the Flash plugin ... Flash Player support on 64-bit operating systems
Since you are running Snow Leopard, *try running Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64*. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) *make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*
  Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
bpageIcons.db to the Trash.*

Why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

Hi..
Try troubleshooting the Flash plugin which is required for most YouTube cotent as well as other sites.
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall first.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

Embedding YouTube video in iOS app?

I need a YouTube video to play inside my iOS app. I know there's a Youtube API for AS3, but I haven't had much luck getting it to work. When I test the app on my computer, I get the error "SecurityError: Error #3207: Application-sandbox content cannot access this feature", and on the iOS device it just does nothing. I have set Security.allowDomain("www.youtube.com").
Does anyone have working example of getting this to work on a mobile device? Or is there another library altogether that I can use?

So basicly your putting a video in to your flash project

Can't see embedded youtube videos, just a blank space where the video should be

As question says embedded youtube videos do not show outside of youtube. I'm using firefox 23.01, have cleared my cookies, seen if my flashplayer is up to date etc and still no luck.
I've put up with it for a few months now but its really starting to get annoying
any help would be appreciated cheers

Hi.
I know this sounds stupidly simple - but it worked for me.
Sometimes, when you copy and paste the embed link from a YouTube video, the actual link to the video DOES NOT START WIth.....
http:
If this is not there it will fail.
For example THIS WILL NOT WORK
<pre><nowiki><iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/sCsjfE6Mabs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></nowiki></pre>
BUT THIS WILL
<pre><nowiki><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sCsjfE6Mabs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></nowiki></pre>
Took me ages to figure this out.
hope it helps.

Same problem on my ipad mini, running ios 6.0.2.
A bit more info:
-tried using YouTube in Safari on another ipad. Worked fine.
Tried reboot (sleep + home buttons for 15 seconds). Didn't fix.
-tried logging out of my YouTube account, thinking the problem was tied to my settings. Didn't fix.
-tried uninstalling all apps I downloaded since the last time YouTube worked properly. Didn't fix.
-tried watching a video in desktop mode. Can tap video screen to bring up pause okay in that mode.
There are work arounds, but the thing I want to know is why YouTube doesn't work in Safari as of a couple of days ago, and is it indicative of another more serious problem with my ipad.

Dreamweaver CS6: Embedding Youtube Video causes DW to stop responding

HI,
I'm trying to build a simple site that displays an embedded youtube video on the main page. The video is placed in a div tag that is placed in a specific spot on the page background to make it appear as if it's playing on an old PC that's part of the image. I paste the code into the div tag in the code view and it appears as a grey box in design view. Everything seems fine up to there, however when I click live view DW CS6 stops responding and the design view window goes white. I've tried pasting the video embed code into my other page, and into a blank html document to see if it was a problem with the rest of the code but the same thing happens on any of the pages. If I save the page and preview in Chrome or Firefox the page displays the windows loading cursor for a few minutes and then returns a youtube error 6 (ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND).
I spent a few hours researching and found nothing via Google searches, Adobe help or Lynda.com tutorials. I'm new to web design and CSS and got as far as I did through Lynda.com lessons. Which is to say I have an index page and a seperate game guide page that links back and forth displaying images and text exactly as I'd like. Everything else works well enough only the video embedding is giving me trouble which is frustrating because according to everything I've read it's supposed to be one of the simplest processes.
I'm really at a loss as to how to fix this issue and would appreciate any help the Adobe community can give me.
Thanks in advance.

Good to know,
I fixed the problem but I'm not exactly sure why this worked. I went to a different site that uses Youtube hosted videos and tried their embed code which appeared the same to my untrained eye. But to my surprise this other video worked perfectly, so I just put the url for my video in and it worked. I'm not sure why, as far as I can tell both embed codes are the same. Both use <iframe> tags. But it works now, suffice to say I've gained some respect for the people who do this stuff day to day.

This animation will not work, neither does embeded youtube videos

So this site https://www.navo.navy.mil/cgi-bin/animate.pl/metoc/74/84/0-0-17/0 animation does
not work (in either FF or Safari on mac, works great on any browser on xp).
Anyone know why???
Also, if I try to look at a embeded youtube video it shows a black screen unless I scroll so that the
video is partially blocked (top or bottom).
Anyone?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

YouTube videos keep stopping on IPad. How to fix?

YouTube videos keep stopping on IPad. How to fix?

UPDATE: fixing iPad Sound after iOS 7
http://youtu.be/SDf1LDcE95Q
(1min 36sec)
It covers the basics:
checking side-switch / mute / "Control Center"
volume all up
...and also the worst cases:
closing all apps (for rare cases when a single app might render the sound system instable)
rebooting the iPad
So, don't get desparete: try the things in the video.
There are people who reported having forgotten an audio-bluetooth connection activated with a turned-off sound-system or speakers... or forgot Air-Play turned on... so be sure you disengage bluetooth and/or airplay.
On the 'hardware side', dirty dock connector (30 pin) can make the iPad 'think' it is connected to external audio - if so, cleaning it with a dry toothbrush can fix. Also, moisture in the headphones connector can make the iPad switch to 'headphones' even without headphones connected, making it silent: check if you can hear things with headphones plugged in - if so, try gently inserting and removing headphones a few times and check if you get sound back to iPad's speakers alone.
Good luck to everybody! Audio problems are quite common - fontunately they are easy to fix.

Embedded Youtube videos not working on Chrome 23 / Flash player 11.5.31.2

For the past couple of weeks, I've not been able to play any Youtube videos that appear as embedded videos on other websites. The small player appears with the still frame from the video and all the controls, but on pressing play, the video goes blank and won't play (the slider stays stuck at 0:00). Nor does the full screen button work - the player just stays where it is within the third party website. This problem has occurred across more than one website, but all sites still work in Internet Explorer.
The main Youtube site is still working.
I have tried all relevant steps here, to no avail (except increasing memory for a particular website, since not just one website is affected):

Details:
Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit
Google Chrome 23.0.1271.64 m
Flash Player 11,5,31,2
Any suggestions please?
John

Thank your for your reply, Chris.
I installed the newest version of Chrome, and the videos I have
embedded on my blog are now working.

Embedded YouTube videos not working

Hello,
Embedded YouTube videos used to work fine up until a few days ago but they have stopped working in all browsers. I use Safari, Firefox and Netscape Navigator.
I am using Mac OS X (10.6.3) and have just conducted a software update and installed a fresh version of flash. This can't be a browser problem because it is not working on any of the browsers. I am having problems viewing embedded YouTube videos on such sights as Blip.fm, Facebook, etc but they used to work fine a couple of weeks ago.
Is this a problem with flash? or Mac OS X?

Another me too. In particular the symptoms are this:
+ any YouTube video embedded within a webpage loads the poster frame and the controls, but after clicking the play button only shows the progress indicator briefly before showing "An error occurred, please try again later." within the video frame.
+ the same YouTube videos play fine on the YouTube site.
+ other Internet video plays fine, embedded or not.
+ when the error occurs Safari reports "One error in opening the page. For more information, choose Window > Activity".
+ the Activity window shows "forbidden" for http://v13.lscache4.c.youtube.com/videoplayback?ip=0.0.0.0&sparams=id%2Cexpire%2 Cip%2Cipbits%2Citag%2Calgorithm%2Cburst%2Cfactor%2Coc%3AU0dWSVhMVV9FSkNNNl9QRllH &fexp=900028&algorithm=throttle-factor&itag=34&ipbits=0&burst=40&sver=3&expire=1 274817600&key=yt1&signature=C15947474FA80C9A1B9DA597103C5FF7D621A478.0C1490DE456 5D519F602B0043A4E1F9D800417A0&factor=1.25&id=c3e8886e8b459334
+ the same URL downloads fine when visiting YouTube directly, except the signature value is different.
I have tested the following:
+ the same computer worked fine a week or so ago
+ other computers on the same shared ADSL connection work fine
+ Firefox works fine (contrary to other's experiences)
+ deleting com.apple.Safari.plist doesn't help
+ disabling/enabling the "Enable Plug-ins" preference doesn't help
+ deleting Preferences/Macromedia folder doesn't help
+ reinstalling Flash doesn't help
+ empty cache doesn't help
Tis quite perplexing.
