Iphone 6 plus won't play video in browser or youtube app?

I've seen this issue in other forums too. I'm running the latest iOS update as well (8.1.1). Videos in Safari never start playing. There is just a spinning icon. In the YouTube app, sometimes there is audio, but never a picture.
As a sidenote, I attempted to post this from my iphone 6 plus, but the mobile version of the site had a lot of bugs (the text in this window wouldn't appear on screen, so I had to guess what I was typing, for one).

Hello Xt1ncT,
It may help to force close all open apps, then restart your iPhone.
Force an app to close in iOS

Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

If the behavior continues, the next step would be to restore the device.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iCloud or iTunes

    Wifi? Cellular? That's not much to go on. More details help. If you think it's your internet contact your provider or carrier.

  • IPhone 5 won't play video messages in fullscreen

    iPhone 5 running iOS 8.1
    When receiving a video through Messages or SMS, the phone will play the video but it will not blow it up into fullscreen. Around about trick can be done by going into details and selecting the video there but it won't play the video completely in fullscreen either. If it is a vertical video it will stay shrunk that way.

    Thanks Colin.
    How do I go about including this png file?  I created a png at 640x1136, named it "[email protected]"  and imported into the cast. 
    I placed it on the first frame of the timeline and in publish settings under projector I clicked "save splash image using frame 1"
    It didn't work....
    Can you be more specific as how to do this?
    Thanks

  • My Iphone 4 won't play video's but will play the sound

    Hello everyone,
    A little while ago I started to get trouble when I tried to watch videos on youtube.
    When I click on a video it will start loading and the gray bar that indicates how far the video has loaded will say that the video has loaded but when I press play the video gets very low fps, but the sound of the video works fine.
    I have tried watching youtube on safari but it still has the same problem.
    I also reinstalled the youtube app but again with no success.
    The same problem happens with video's on facebook.
    I have an Iphone 4 with IOS 7.04
    Does anyone have the same problem or knows how to fix it?

    Hi. i faced the exact same problem  i cant even charge my iphone 4s while it is on. The iOS is 6.1
    All this while the iphone 4s works perfectly.
    i) Last week, when i try to charge the phone (using my laptop), i realize that it wont charge.
    ii) i try to clean the iphone charging port, with the idea that may be its too dirty/ dusty at the charging port. When i connect the charger to my iphone, it wont charged.
    iii) Then, instead of connecting the USB cable to my laptop, i try to connect directly to the power plug, but it still wont charge.
    iv) So i thought that may be the problem is the cable it self. So i went to Machines (Authorised Apple Products) and bought a new USB cable, However my iphone still wont charge.
    So at night the battery is fully drained and empty, i try to connect the phone while it is OFF, and in the morning, when i wake up, the phone have been fully charged (100%).
    So i thought the phone is ok now. When i reach at the office and try to charge the phone again, then i realize, my iPhone wont charge while it is on. it will only charge when it is off. i cant even restore it as my iphone cannot be connected to itunes while it is on.
    Anyone having the same problem? Hope you guys can help.
    iPhone 4S, iOS 6.1

  • IPad 4 won't play videos in Safari - OS 8.1.1

    Is it a Flash issue perhaps?

  • Videos won't play in any browser

    Just recently, videos won't play in any browser...Safari, Firefox. etc. It seems to happen with .wmv files. I reinstalled media player, but still have the problem.
    I get this message.
    "Cannot open the file. Verify that the path and filename are correct and try again"

    First, check that Windows Media Player is set as the correct plug in - in Safari, go to help/installed plug ins. There should be a section marked 'Windows Media Player' showing 'application/x-mplayer2' and listing wmv files (amongst others).
    Sometimes these arrors are caused by DNS failures. Ensure your system is fully up to date, and enter your ISP's DNS server IP addresses (usually two of them, sometimes three) in the 'DNS servers' box on the TCP page of the Network preference pane.
    The DNS server IPs are usually supplied with the ISP's initial set up documentation, or located on the ISP's help page.
    The reason it could be a problem is that in many iterations of MacOS X, the system is extremely sensitive to how quickly a DNS search responds. DNS is the process whereby a user-provided URL is converted into the correct IP address for internet lookup, so if the video source is held on a different server and the DNS process doesn't return a valid IP address in time, you would then get an error of the sort you describe.

  • My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate.

    My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate.  When I "Preview In Browser" through Edge it plays (I have created a shape and used the "play video full screen" snippet)  in full screen mode just fine.  When I "Preview Site In Browser" through Muse and click on the shape to PLAY VIDEO FULL SCREEN, it does nothing.  I am new to both programs and can't figure out why it will work out of the preview window in Edge and won't work when I publish to Muse.  Does anybody have an answer or a work-around for me?

  • MP4 files won't play in mobile browser?

    I have a media file, MP4, which plays fine on desktop browsers.  But on the iPhone4 and on Android 2.2 mobile devices this media file won't play within the browser.  I get a broken link where the embedded video should be playing.  I am using proper object/embed tags per a previous successful attempt I made doing this and I cross referenced my classid to one that was posted online to make sure I didn't miss any syntax.  What could be going wrong?  Did I encode the mp4 incorrectly?  If so, then why does a 3gp file that I rendered FROM the broken mp4 play within the mobile devices without a hitch?
    Sincerely,
    markerline

    Are you sure you have Photoshop Elements 8 and not Photoshop Premier elements 8?  I would have thought that MP4 files can be played in Premier elements (PE) rather than Photoshop elements (PSE).  PSE is for photos and PE is for movies and videos.
    Perhaps you could try installing the trial version of PE13 to see if anything changes.  I am not into movies and all that so my answer is just a guess work.

  • Safari won't play videos (or anything else for that matter)

    Hi folks,
    I have a MacBook Pro running all the latest software and it seems that Safari's having trouble playing things, like videos. Nothing works: Flash, HTML5 or QuickTime. Tried it all. MP3s won't play in the browser either. I've looked around and many of the other people who have this problem have it magically disappear with an update, no such luck for me. Apple isn't going to be useful for less than $49 either. Anyone have any insight?
    Thanks!

    Hi...
    MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)  < your profilel
    I have a MacBook Pro running all the latest software
    If your profile is correct, click the Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update. The most recent Lion version available is v10.7.4 and Safari 5.1.7
    For troubleshooting Flash.
    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
    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.
    Spend $49 for what? QuickTime is pre installed on your Mac. If you are using HTML5, that can prevent Flash content from streaming.
    For QuickTime. Check Safari > Preferences > Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that OFF, quit then relaunch Safari. Try a QT video.
    Not sure if this will work for recent versions of Safari for mp3, but won't hurt to try >  http://www.kalvster.com/macintosh/save-download-mp3-files-in-macintosh-safari.ht ml

  • Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. w/latest Flash version.

    Despite following both Firefox and Flash directions, Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. They either never load or they load and freeze within seconds. Before I got the latest versions of Firefox and Flash, I did not have this problem. So there must be a problem in one or both of them. Since I understand from various websites that this is a widespread problem, can Firefox fix this? It's a major flaw in the latest Firefox version.

    While on a YouTube page, right click the ABP icon and "open blockable items".
    When the window opens at the bottom of the page, right click this line: http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/watch_as3-vfl9DouAr.swf (or some variation) , then "Disable Filter".

  • Flash player won't play videos in safari after I've installed Lion does anyone have a solution?

    Hi,
    I've installed Lion after which Flash Player won't play videos with Safari. I keep being prompted to download and install the latest version of Flash Player whcih I've done several times. Can someone please help me fix this.
    I find Adobe's announcement that there are no issues with Flash Player and Lion a bit of a sick joke.
    Many thanks,
    Ian Pickering

    This sounds like the problems that Adobe have reported which are listed at
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/905/cpsid_90508.html#main_Flash_Player
    I only use flash for watching video clips on the BBC website so haven't been affected by these other issues. The text below is copied from the website at the above link. Hope this helps.
    The Flash Player Settings dialog box doesn't respond to mouse clicks. As a workaround, press the Tab key to move to the Close button and press the spacebar to close the dialog box. While not all settings are available, you can also use the Flash Player native control panel in System Preferences.
    Custom native mouse cursors don't animate properly on Mac OS 10.7.

  • Quicktime won't play videos online. ???

    I just downloaded quicktime, and then restarted my computer. But it still won't play videos online. I'm not sure if it is like this for all sites, but i have one site in particular that won't play videos. Any ideas? I have Windows 7 by the way.

    I come across this a lot, actually. I'm tired of having to switch to Firefox in order to view certain quicktimes. Here's a clip that won't play for me:
    http://www.chartoonz.com/index.html
    I can't figure it out because Safari will play quicktimes, even other h264 quicktimes, but then I'll run across an h264 on someone's site and I get the question mark.
