First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Suddenly Can't Play You Tube Videos - Again

You Tube was working just fine, and then it wasn't. I'm using Lion 10.7.2, Safari 5.1.2 and it all works find on my 11" MacBook Air. But YouTube won't play on my 24" iMac Intel Core2 Duo. I recently downloaded MPeg Streamclip and downloaded a bunch of YouTube videos and it was fine. But not anymore. Any suggestions?

This happens every once in awhile. Just give it some time and it usually fixes itself. If it still doesn't work, try deleting the cookies in your web browser. Post back if it is working or not please.

Can't play you tube and other videos with Firefox. Have re-installed Adobe Flash player without success. I can play you tube videos using Internet Explorer.
I am also unable to even see the link to audio replay on Capitol Pressroom archives. The same link is visible and functional on Internet Explorer.

There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

Trouble playing You Tube video on iPad 2 - stops/starts - can't get through a single video. HELP.

I have the iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G but it's not currently on my Verizon plan - only connects via home wireless internet. I'm confused as to why I've never been able to successfully play/view any kind of video via the internet? The video loads and begins to play...but about 10 seconds in...it hangs up and then I have to play a cat and mouse game of pause/play to get it to 'load' a little bit more...and finally about 60 seconds worth I throw in the towel and head for the iPhone or my Mac. So what gives? My iPad does so much...even plays videos I TAKE. Why won't it play You Tube videos???!!! Is that Icon on my Home Screen just to taunt me and store the videos I'll never be able to view more than 10 seconds???
Please help guide me to the simple fix.

Try viewing youtube from the browser and going to youtube.com rather than using the YouTube app.
Also, try at different times of day and report back. Where I am, by 7pm the cable modem slows down considerably with all the Netflix viewing. I swear Comcast is throttling bandwidth for video streaming!

    Check whether you are currently in YouTube HTML 5 trial?
     http://www.youtube.com/html5
    At the bottom left of the page uncheck the box for
   "You are currently in the HTML5 trial".

I can't watch you tube videos on my I pad

I can't watch you tube videos on my iPad(3 gen) & my iPhone 5

Well, you can.
Can you give some detail of how you're trying to watch them, and/or what error your getting?
Otherwise, it's a guessing game as to why you can't.
Are you using the m.youtube.com link from your browser?
The YouTube app available from AppWorld?

Monitor won't enter power save after playing You Tube videos...

Hi
An issue has developed on my system in the last couple of months for which, after having done a lot of research and testing, a solution has not been found. After playing a video in You Tube, my monitor won't go into power save mode after the prescribed time. It tries to go off for a second and the screen goes blank but then comes straight on again. This happens after playing the You Tube videos in Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. I am running Windows XP Professional and I have the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer installed, the latest graphics card drivers, the latest version of direct x 9.0c.
To clear this error, I have to go into my XP power schemes settings and change it to another power scheme and then change it back to my default power scheme. However, as soon as I play another you tube video the same problem re-occurs.
I have tried turning off hardware acceleration but this makes no difference. My graphics card is a Gigabyte gv-nx86t512h: http://uk.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2604#ov
This never used to happen until recently. It seems that there is something with the Flashplayer that is not compatible with Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer etc.
Any ideas as to what may be causing this and what can be done to overcome it would be greatly appreciated as it is a real nuisance.
Many thanks.
D

thanks for your suggestions.
i found the solution/workaround from somone else on the adobe forums:
Go to control panel, display, screen saver, choose a random screen saver, set a long time (i.e. 60 min, but always longer than your monitor shut off time), then select no screen saver, and save! Simple as that…

No sound when playing you tube videos

recently the sound stopped playing with the you tube videos.
The sound for other stuff works find, ads from a newspaper, itunes, web sites, just you tube.
Any advice as to where to look in you tube or a plug in that you tube requires in order to play the audio.
Again the video plays fine.
Thanks
Greg

You can look through this for a couple of other suggestions.
iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store
The article will talk about closing the app, deleting the app and reinstalling it and resetting/rebooting the iPad like I suggested. Sometimes another app could be causing a conflict, so you might want to try closing all apps and restart the iPad. Closing apps is covered in the article.
One other thing that you could try is Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will not lose any data, but you will have to enter all of the device settings again.

I have an ipad 2 and when connected to my wifi at home it will not download and play you tube videos quickly. Do I need to upgrade my connenction speed? What is the optimal speed?

I have an ipad2. When connected to my wifi at home it will not download you tube videos for easy viewing. Do I need to upgrade my connection speed? Would 3 Mbps be enought or do I need to go to 6 Mbps. I mainly use my ipad to view emails, browse the internet and watch you tube videos.
thanks - Michelle

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
There are a number of factors in the 'speed' equation. Any or all of them can affect the 'observed' speed of your connection.
1. Are you in a neighborhood full of WiFi routers (and thus, lots of WiFi interference)? I can 'see' at least 22 other WiFi routers from my living room!
2. What is the maximum connect speed and band and bandwidth available from your wireless router. Is it 802.11n or the older 802.11a/b/g? 300Mbits or 150Mbits? 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz or both? Does your router measure (QoS) Quality of Service and can it change 'channels' automatically?
3. What is the observed strength of your wireless connection? Are you getting at least 80% signal when connected? Are there other people in your family also using significant bandwidth at the same time (Netflix, streaming video, streaming audio, game systems)
4. What is the "advertised" speed of your current ISP connection?
5. What is the measured throughput of your current setup. Go to speedtest.net or use the free speedtest.net app available in the App Store. Try several times, from different locations in your home, and at different times of day and night.
I have AT&T DSL advertised at 3Mbit/sec down and 512Kbit/sec up. My Speedtest.net measured throughput is about 2.4 Mbit/sec downstream and upstream is about 0.4Mbit/sec. I'm using a Motorola Netopia 2210-2 DSL modem. I have no problem viewing YouTube videos and other mobile video content on the iPad 2. I'm connected wirelessly to a D-Link DIR-655 Gigabit router rated at 150Mbps at 2.4Ghz (only) with 802.11 b/g/n enabled. The interior of my home is within a range of 30-50 feet from the router and no more than 1 wall. It is a single level concrete slab foundation of about 1500 sq. ft. with cathedral ceilings. I have successfully streamed ESPN3.com on my MacBook at the same time my son was streaming another ESPN3.com game on his MacBook Pro. I've streamed YouTube videos while my son was watching a NetFlix movie on his Wii game system. He's also successfully used Skype for extended 'teleconferences.' None of my devices are connected to HDMI on a large screen TV. 95% of the time, I can do iChat video without any signal breakup to my son (who is at a college with a Gigabit (1000Mbit) wired connection!). 5% of the time the connection drops. We haven't tried FaceTime (designed for mobile connections to be much less bandwidth-intensive, from what I understand) simply because we both have iChat on our computers.
So for me, a 3Mbit DSL connection is absolutely adequate, given all the other parameters mentioned. As the car manufacturers say, "Your mileage may vary."
