I can't sign in to you tube on my ipad2 :-(

Does anyone know why I get a message saying my "authentication failed" when I try to sign into the YouTube app on my ipad2? I can sign in using safari by not the app. :-( any suggestions?

I got it working ! Credit is owed to someone signed in as dvanhaeke on 9/1/12 on the youtube forum : you go to youtube via safari and there you click "upload" video which gets you your user name (you can create or change it). Then if like me you need an app specific passw you create it at your google account then you have both your username AND password and all is well:)

I cannot sign in to You Tube without being redirected to Safari

I can no longer sign in to You Tube app. I am always directed to website. I can log in there, but not in the app. Can anyone help me out of this loop?

I have used the solution below to fix mine and others that have run into this issue.
Start --> Programs --> Accessories (Right Click on Command Prompt) --> Run as Administrator
then type in: "Netsh winsock reset" (-without the quotes-)
Hit enter, restart PC, iCloud For PC should now connect without any server errors
(This solutions will work in some instances when trying to fix errors associated when you are unable to connect to iTunes also.)

Can not view videos on you tube in firefox4 using flash player11

I'm using firefox 4 and i can not view videos on you tube.I've updated and reinstalled adobe flash player twice with no results.I've also tried the other checks,security blocking,cache,pop ups etc Works fine on IE. Hope someone has a solution.I've always liked firefox but not the newer versions and many of the changes;

I can't believe you're still running Firefox 4. Why not a newer version?
There are a number of active threads concerning the latest Flash player plugin (11.3) and the latest Firefox (12-13). Not all users are experiencing the same issues, but things to check include the following:
- Conflict with Realplayer Browser Record plugin (to disable this, open Add-ons from the orange Firefox button or the classic Tools menu and look under the Extensions and Plugins categories)
- Conflict with Flash 11.3 Protected Mode (see [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071?tstart=0 Adobe Forums: How do I disable Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?])
Scanning down the front of the forums probably will yield additional suggestions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions
Does any of that appear promising?

Have version 6.1 on my iPhone5 and can't download videos to You Tube. Get error message Cannot publish. Help

Have version 6.1 on my iPhone5 and can't download videos to You Tube. Get error message Cannot publish. Help

update to the latest iOS version.

Today I updated MS Explorer from version 6 to 8. I can't see videos in you tube neither using explorer neither mozilla Firefox

I usually use Mozilla Fire fox, but today I updated Microsoft Internet Explorer from 6 version to 8 version.
Since then I can't visualize videos in you tube neither using Mozilla or Explorer. Can you help me?
Thanks

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]].

And what is the point of all this? CS3 is now 7 years old and Office 2003 just the same. Yes, sometimes software has bugs and compatibility issues. Beyond there is nothing here to discuss on either end, given the circumstances...

First, check the caps lock on your PC keyboard. I know this sounds a bit silly, but we've all done it. If it turns out caps lock was on, then just enter all caps on the iPad.
If that's not the problem, try opening Notes and type your password sonyouncan see it. If you're not getting what you expect, try slowing down.
Let me know how that goes, andvI'll try to come up with a few more troubleshooting options.

Here is a solution that worked for me, after nothing else would. Log out and back in to iTunes on your Mac/PC.
I had exactly the same problems as above, and no amount of network changes or even a full restore would help.
Finally, I went back to my PC, launched iTunes, logged OUT of that, then signed in again, this time with the new password.
Then I had to go back, and properly close Facetime and iMessages and sign in. It worked fine after that.
(To properly close an application, double click the home button, then hold down on the facetime app logo in the multitasking bar at the bottom, then press the tiny symbol.)
Best of luck.

Firefox can not fully load the you tube website

the site you tube is loaded but the thumbnails are not visible

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
*Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

Can't sign into iMessages or FaceTime on my iPad2

I'm unable to sign into iMessages or FaceTime on my iPad2. I'm able to sign into all other Apple Apps except those. Could someone assist me on how to rectify this problem?

If you changed your appleID password, then try this one, which worked for me, after nothing else would. Log out and back in to iTunes on your Mac/PC.
I had exactly the same problems as above, and no amount of network changes or even a full restore would help.
Finally, I went back to my PC, launched iTunes, logged OUT of that, then signed in again, this time with the new password.

Why can I not open a you tube item on Firefox

I've been sent 4 different music videos on email but cannot open them in order to hear them. I'm advised that the 'plugin'
is vulnerable. What is a plugin?

Hmm, what kind of files were you sent?
Your "More System Details" shows that you have a rather old version of the Flash player plugin in Firefox: Shockwave Flash 11.5 r502
A plugin is a chunk of computer code that another company, like Adobe, releases to add capabilities to Firefox. In this case, the Flash player handles a range of different kinds of media right inside a Firefox tab inside of requiring you to download the media and play it in a separate program.
But to get back to the vulnerable part, you can update Flash by downloading a fresh installer from Adobe:
* Main distribution page: https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
* Alternate page: http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Sometimes the new Flash installer doesn't clean out the old plugin. To give it the best shot at doing that, it's best to close Firefox after the download and run the Flash installer with Firefox closed to avoid locking the old file. After the install, you can check for the Add-ons page to see whether there was a clean substitution of the new Shockwave Flash for the old one.
To open the Add-ons page, either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins.
Success?
