High-quality YouTube videos keep crashing.  What should I do???

Whenever I open a higher quality youtube video on ipad, it plays for a couple of seconds and then it crashes and sends me back to the Home screen.  I tried to updating it to the latest version of iOS about a week and a half ago, and that helped at first.  Now it's starting to do it again.  Any suggestions?  Is this happening to anyone else?

iPad video is limited to 720p video.
If the problem videos are 1080p, the iPad may have trouble with or crash the YouTube app.
I am assuming you are using the YouTube app on the iPad?
There are apps that claim to run 1080p video on iPad, but these apps produce their own issues, video artifacts and problems and aren't very reliable as a solution to watching higher resolution video on iPad.
Maybe future versions of iPad will be able to handle higher quality video, but for now, it's not possible.

  • I have Shockwave Flash 16 and 17 and am running Firefox 37, but youtube videos keep crashing.

    I have Shockwave Flash 16 and 17 and am running Firefox 37, but youtube videos keep crashing.

    Thanks for reporting your solution to Flash lockups, which included reinstalling the Flash plugin after first doing a complete uninstall, including manual removal of leftover Flash files and folders.
    For the benefit of others reading, Adobe includes instructions for uninstalling Flash on Windows in their own help article (linked from the Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems Firefox article) which is:

  • Okay. youtube videos keep crashing no matter what i do. i made sure adobe was up to date, i cleared my cache and cookies even reset firefox.

    only some crash though, but those that crash keep crashing over and over again at the same point. when i play then they'll start playing fine but when it get to a certain point the video will stop, the audio continues for about ten seconds then it stop too. the the screen get kinda pixelated and green then the video crashes. sometimes it ask to stop or continue plugin. please help I've googled this numerous time and simply dont know what do do anymore. ive got rid of extension that shouldn't be there and disabled unnecessary add-ons aswell

    I don't know whether it will help, but Youtube uses the DASH method of sending videos in small bits. The YouTube Center extension can revert to the older method of sending the whole video as one giant file. Maybe that will work more smoothly? (Or maybe it will crash earlier???)

  • Force higher quality Youtube video over EDGE?

    When you're using EDGE the YouTube videos automatically get bumped down to a lower quality/highly compressed version to allow for them to stream quicker. Is there a way to force it to stream the higher quality version it uses when you're using an 802.11b connection? Obviously it'll be much slower, but for some videos it'd be worth the wait for some extra quality.

    The YouTube videos are encoded using H.264 which, when streaming, the video quality is based on your data transfer rate (connection speed). Therefore the faster connection you have the better quality videos you're going to get served up.

  • Problem with iMovie settings for high quality YouTube videos.

    I've used iMovie before, but now I'm using the new iMovie HD.
    However, now, when I export my videos and upload to youtube. the Videos come out REALLY BLURRY, even though when I play it on my computer, they look fine.
    I've been searching online, on youtube, looking for the correct settings but they never seemed to work.
    Hopefully someone here knows the correct settings so that the video isn't extremely blurry when uploaded onto youtube?

    You might want to try the forum for iMovie specifically. You're in the forum for Final Cut. You may get an answer here but you'll probably get it faster going to the right forum. I'm just saying. I haven't used iMovie since 2000 and I'm sure it's pretty different now.

    My iPhone 5s stopped playing videos from web, Facebook, youtube, instagram etc. What should i do?????

    Hi 361,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone not playing video from any source, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • YouTube videos keep popping up on my iPad

    YouTube videos keep popping up on my iPad when I'm on facebook. What is causing it and how do I stop it.

    I know two ways: one long (and tested) and one short (whichwas not). I’ll give you the short way first:
    In the finder, locate your current Facebook app file, it should be in the “Mobile Applications” folder nested in your iTunes media folder
    Mark the exact name, should be something like “Facebook3500.ipa”
    Delete the file
    Look in the “Previous Mobile Applications”folder for the previous Facebook app file, should be something like “Facebook3440.ipa” and copy it in the parent folder (“Mobile Applications”).
    Change the file name from “Facebook 3440.ipa” to “Facebook 3500.ipa” (or whatever it was in point 2).
    Delete Facebook app from iPad.
    Relaunch iTunes.
    Sync iPad. This will probably uncheck Facebook app in iTunes (since you’ve deleted it from iPad).
    In iTunes go to Apps tab, re-check Facebook.
    Re-sync iPad. Facebook should be back and working.

  • Am I the only one getting bad quality youtube videos when running on LTE? When I'm on wifi they seem fine but I switch to lte it looks bad on the youtube app and on safari.

    I've never had any problems with mine ever. The only freeze I've had was from a file I recorded on tivo, cut commericals out in movie maker and then re-encoded to the lowest possible bit rate that that zens nati've resolution supports. Try turning your sensitivity in the touch pad down. Sometimes if you have it up to high you may have a chance of doing that (although I have only had slow response, instead of a freeze by doing that).
    You also have to compare to all of the other products out there: Ipod and Zune are a lot worse with pathetic little problems (annoyances). I didn't pay for tech support?

    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.
