Hello.  My ipad2 will not open embedded YouTube videos.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?  I'm using wifi for my Internet connection, if that makes a difference. Thank you.

With Facebook, and most of YouTube being used to host "non-proprietary" videos uploaded by their owners, it allows these sites to display these videos directly in the browser using html5.
The problem arises on youtube and facebook when you try and view a "Music Video" or any other "proprietary" video or audio. These videos must be displayed using what's called DRM (digital rights management), to protect the video or audio owner from theft.
This is why videos watchable in the browser on your pc, mac, or android device are not watchable on any ios device, because the videos require Flash to be played,
As an easy test, go to youtube on your pc, mac, or android device and doa search for eminem. You will see that alot of videos that come up will not come up on your ios device, or even in the ios youtube app.
Some of the reason for this as well is that the content owners have "banned" the viewing of their content on mobile, due mostly to slower connections disrupting their advertising.
This is easily remedied on android by setting the browser to "desktop" viewing.
You're best bet when trying to watch videos online from an ios device is to look for an app instead, or pay for the "flash workarounds" offered through ios.

    Adobe Reader will not open embedded PDFs in Safari with Yosemite installed

    That looks like a perfectly good PDF, but since it's trying to open in Microsoft Word, that means your file association for .pdf files is incorrect.  You should change it to point to Adobe Reader instead of Word.
    If you are on Windows, see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-file-open-program#1TC=windows-7

    Ipad2 will not open or start

    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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • My ipad2 will not play my iTunes video that i just purchased; i've deleted and reloaded, but they still won't play, only the music

    My ipad2 will not play my itunes videos that i just purchased; I've deleted and reloaded them twice, but still won't play; plays music only, any suggestions?

    You are playing them in the Videos app correct? Music Videos will play the video in the videos app, not in the Music app.

  • Internet Explorer 11 will not open Embedded links or update application software., Open a blank page

    Hello,
    I have a customer with a brand new HP workstation and the same thing is happening here.
    Doing a search in Norton Toolbar and then clicking on one of the results it opens a new IE page but the page is completely blank, including the tab at the top to identify the page. Also when using a tax software program that is running from a web browser
    and clicking on an update it does the same thing.
    When logging onto Online Banking and if you click on a transaction to view a deposit or a check it will not open that item.
    The computer was installed 15 days ago. The first time we installed Office 2013 it asked to activate the product over the Internet. It would not connect to the Microsoft servers to validate the new product. OF course we had to call(phone) it in to validate.
    There are more examples of "On Line" things not working properly, these are just a few.
    Should I uninstall IE 11 and install IE10.  
    So Far I have disabled all add-ons, reset IE, Ran a full viruscan - Results Clean (N360). Customer does use the password feature in Norton 360, i beleive it is called the "Vault".
    I did uninstall IE 11 and Norton 360. Installed IE 11 on and the same results. Then I installed N360 back on.
    Any helpful suggestions  would be appreciated. Customer does not want Chrome installed>

    Hi,
    the first step in troubleshooting web browser issues is to test in noAddons mode.
    Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Internet Explorer (noAddons)
    In your customers case you should also try navigating to the URL by typing it directly in the IE address bar.... (when asking internet related questions please include the complete address to any web pages you are having issues with).
    It seems plausible that in this case a configuration of the Nortons security suite or toolbar may be causing the issue.... Without an example link we cannot test the site in question. The Nortons toolbar is probably using google as a search results provider.
    To completely remove Norton 360 from the computer you need to download the N360 removal tool.
    https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/kb20080710133834EN_EndUserProfile_en_us
    have your tried support.norton.com?
    you could try
    a Reset IE Settings... (Advanced tab of Internet Options)
    a Reset of IE security zone settings (Security tab of Internet Options>click "Reset all zones to default", then the Trusted sites icon, sites button....remove any domains from the trusted sites list.) (MSIE browsers have a security setting to prevent
    navigation into zones of lower integrity).
    Again... without a link to the website youre client is having issues with we can only guess.

  • Dreamweaver CS6 not previewing embedded YouTube Videos

    I've created a simple page with a number of YouTube videos embedded on it but Dreamweaver CS6 will not preview the videos unless the page is uploaded to a web server first.
    I've gotten the embed code from YouTube and pasted it into the code window (in split view).  A grey box indicating the player shows up in the design window, but after saving the page and attempting to view it in Live View or previewing in Safari, the YouTube players won't load. 
    I did manage to get the the players to show only after uploading to a temporary website (http://www.omnimediaservices.com/orionvideos.html) but there should be a way to preview this in a browser at least before having to upload.

    I have the same problem as beerstine . I added the prefix as you suggested but for not.
    This is the code I pasted and fixed:

  • Visio viewer will not open embedded .vsd file in word 2007

    I am trying to open a .vsd file that is embedded in a word 2007 document. The user who embedded it had Visio 2007 and i only have visio viewer 2010 sp2 and IE 9. When clicking on the .vsd to open it i recieve an error that states:
    The server application, source file, or item cannot be found. Make sure the application is properly installed, and that it has not been deleted, moved, renamed, or blocked by policy.
    There is a user that can open the embedded file but they have Visio application as well as Visio viewer. It opens in Visio Application on that persons machine. The icon in word shows the Visio applications image. Does the embedded document have some sort
    of defaulted program associated with it, ie (Visio 2007)? Or should this document be able to be opened with visio viewer?

    Was anyone able to solve this?
    I encounter the exact same problem, visio viewer 2013 + IE11 cannot open Visio files which are embedded in a word document, although it is possible to open regular visio files which are not embedded,
    I know it is possible to extract the visio files from the word document (by renaming the .docx extension to .zip and copy the file from the word\embeddings folder), but I would like to know if there is a fix for this behaviour so it will be possible to open
    visio files embedded in word document directly from the Word document using Visio viewer?
    thanks

  • Icloud email on an ipad2 will not open due to an extremely large email

    I accidentally sent an email to my me.com account that was extremely large and now I cannot access my iCloud mail without it immediately shutting dow. I'm not even able to delete the mail because it won't stay open long enough for me to delete it.  Once I select the email, my email program immediately shuts down.  How do I get rid of this darn email so that I can even use my icloud mail??

    I have tried restarting the iPad, have tried to deal with it on my iPhone with the same results. The mail application just shuts down when I open it. I can't even select the email to delete it before it shuts down.
    I tried going to iCloud.com, but when I do I seem to get a cover page that just gives me the option to "set up iCloud on this device" (it already is), "install find my iPhone" (also already installed), or "install find my friends".  No way to access mail from that page, although I have heard that there should be.  I even tried to access it by going to iCloud.co/#mail and many other combinations.
    Any other suggestions?

  • Ipad will not open online streaming videos

    Hello
    I have the newest ipad and whenever I go onto the safari and click on a streaming video the play button comes up, but has a line through it this means i can not play the video. What do I have to do to make it play the video.

    If the site uses Flash based videos then it won't play natively on the iPad. Mobile safari doesn't support flash. You'd need to use a flash based browser, I see Puffin, Skyfire and iSwiffer recommended. But none of them seem to be perfect, so you may want to experiment before you plunk down any money.
    You might also want to see if the site you're trying to access has an app.

  • Safari will not open Quick Time Video

    Safari can't seem to recognize many QT Videos. I have to open them in Netscape browser to view them.
    Any cure for this problem?
    PowerBook G4 17-inch   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Just noticed the same problem. When I access the Apple site, in place of the quicktime movie of the recent apple ad, the panel is black with "no picture" noted in parenthesis. Same happens when I access the other related ads. Also, noticed it happening when I wanted to see a time-lapsed QT movie in Safari. This includes trailers!
    In Firefox, the front page ad comes up the same way as Safari. When I click on the other related ads, they play after about 30 seconds of load time.
    Tried another user account, same result.
    Checked my internet plug-in folder. The only addition was the recent upgrade of Real Player. Moved the two plug-in's to the desktop, restarted Safari...same result.
    Wonder if anyone else has experienced a problem with the QT videos in the browsers.

  • Illustrator will not open my files! HELP!

    Hello,
    My Illustrator will not open my files. At first I will launch the program open a file then the timer just spins and spins as if its thinking but nothing ever happens. The menu on the dock says its not responding. If I leave it like that for about 2 hours it will eventually open. But when I work and save again I get the same thing, application is not responding unless I let it sit there for a few hours. I reinstalled the software and nothing seems to be working.
    Please help. This is wasting my time and very frustrating.
    Thanks;o)

    The files I am trying to open are standard CS3 .ai files... I'm not on a networked server. Its just my computer with my licensed software.
    I'm creating a website so there is some type and some placed images. But this problem happens even when I start a new file and draw an image with simple illustrator tools. Do you think I have corrupt preferences?

  • Firefox 16.0.2 will not open You Tube with latest Adobe Shockflash 11.4 etc.

    Forefox 16.0.2 on MAC OSX 10.8.2 with most current Adobe Shockwave Flash will not open You Tube videos. Photo of video shows, it seems to load, but then nothing happens. I have gone through all the suggestions on your site and spent a great deal of time and still cannot reach a solution. This is very maddening, as much as I love Firefox.

    Did you try the solution given in this article?
