Slow YouTube fix.?

How can I speed up YouTube on ipad2?

You'll want to check to see if YouTube loads quickly on your computer. I have Comcast and for some reason YouTube videos haven't loaded quickly in about a year or so even on the computer. If I play a video in 240p it will still stop to buffer half way through.
So it might just be an issue where you ISP and YouTube aren't working nice together. Check to see how they load on the computer, might not even be a problem with the iPad

Slow YouTube when connected to home wireless broadband DSL2+

I'm experiencing really slow YouTube downloads. I'm connected to my home wireless broadband which is really fast (17000/880, however downloading YouTube content on the phone takes ages. Any suggestions ?

The answer is set your Wifi to B only and all the speed problems with the iPhone 3G will be fixed! There seems to be a problem with the 802.11G on the iPhone in my experience.

What can i do to fix the incredibly slow youtube app?

My 4th genneration 32gb ipod touch is fairly new (but doesnt have a warrenty) and has lots of problems. One, the touch reponse is slow. Two, the apps close with no warning. And the biggest issue for me is the youtube app is incrediby slow. It takes me 9 minutes to watch a 3 minute long video. Looking for answers online about this last problem, I have found that a lot of people say it's because of the HD that makes it go slow. I would greatly appreciate if anyone can give me any advice on how to fix any of these problems. This is not what i would have expected to get with $300!
P.S.
I also have a 3rd genneration 8gb ipod touch, and it works fine! I have no problems with it and I can watch the youtube videos without waiting for them to load at all. I got the new ipod because I needed more space and wanted a camera (which also *****)!
Thanks

this also happens to my 8gb white ipod touch the youtube is slow but the touch screen response work fine try youtube on safari and see if that is also slow

MacBook Air Slow Youtube Buffer

I got a MacBook Air for my birthday two days ago and I found out that it is almost impossible to watch Youtube videos due to slow buffering. On my windows laptop I can watch YouTube in 1080/60 without any stopping, but with macbook air I cant even watch videos fluidly on 360p, I have downloaded chrome, changed my dns and everything and it is still the same. Any ideas on how to fix it?????

You have 14 days time frame in which you can exchange your macbook air for a new one without any questions asked.
Simple, exchange it...
Hope this helps....

Super slow YouTube/Videos

I just got the new 4th generation iPod touch 32gb, with ios 4.2.1, a few days ago. I synced it without a problem. My problem is that YouTube and videos are very slow. I try to watch a video in YouTube about 2 min long, and it loads it very slowly, or it loads about 15 seconds of it and then refuses to load anymore. My wifi is strong at about 2.4 mb/s download. When comparing the same video's load time against my old 2g iPod, the 2g loaded the entire videO in a couple seconds. They were both definitely on the same wifi network and there was no other traffic when I did the test. The same problem happens on most Internet non YouTube videos. When I go to the YouTube mobile site on my 4g it is somewhat faster (with the HD) box on, but not much. When I deselect the red HD box, it is usually faster but sometimes stops loading in the middle of the video. I have restarted the iPod, quit all apps that might be using wifi, turned wifi on and off, reconnected to the network, and reset the network settings. Nothing has worked. Any help?

I too have this problem only with youtube, when I use the programme (that came pre-installed) it freezes when loading a video and I can only play the first few seconds of any video nothing more. I have upped my broadband to 2mb and changed my router to the latest apple airport express n version but I still have this same problem - that I cannot view a video in you tube. I cant determine if it is a hardware or software problem but now I am completely baffled as to how to fix it - any suggestions??
I have a 1st gen itouch with updated software 2.2, but I think I had the problem before I updated anyway.
my speeds are roughly 1935k up and 256k down (my computer is roughly the same but no problem with youtube)

Slow YouTube buffering speeds

My iPhone 4 has been having major YouTube buffering problems. It alternates between fast and slow loading. On Wifi with full strength a video will take seconds to load but if i leave it and come back to it on the same connection, it will take sometimes hours for a 3 minute video. the same problem happens on ATT 3G (which isnt amazing...) but it's just not conistent. Any fixes besides restoring, rebooting, and taking it back to the store? My battery hasnt been working well lately so i might take it back soon, but this is the second iP4 I've had and the YouTube issue is not fixed.

Same exact problem as you.Im on my second ip4 and has ridiculously slow wifi loading times.I think its a software problem and theres nothing that could be done till apple fixes it.I know it isnt my router because videos load no problem on my Ip3g.

32 bit YouTube fix breaks "Open PDFs in Preview"

Hi everyone -
Like (apparently) the rest of the forum, I haven't been able to open YouTube videos with Safari without opening in 32 bit.
Unfortunately, when I open in 32 bit, PDFs are then automatically opened in Adobe Reader.
I tried redoing the old fix for this - downloading a PDF file, get info, "Open in Preview", change all - but this doesn't change anything for me.
Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have any solutions?

unless safari's built-in pdf support is disabled via a defaults command, or modifying the plist - what app opens a pdf on the mac hasn't anything to do with what happens when you click most web-based pdf's.
Like changing what app opens html files somehow stops Safari from handling them when you click a link.
The plugin thing seemingly wasn't working, switching to 32 bit made it work, and it did the job intended... to open pdf's in the browser.

BT Infinity 20Mbps slower after fixing BT Vision

Hello
I had BT infinity & BT Vision installed about 3 weeks ago.
Speed estimate said 48Mbps. After install i got a solid 52Mbps which i was very happy with Also had BT vision installed at the same time which i didnt actually use until about 1 week ago.
When i tried using the BT vision the multicast channels - BBC 1 HD etc wouldn't work, it would take 30 - 60 seconds to get a picture. Obviously something was wrong.
I rang BT to after some tests escalated to level 2 support. An engineer turned up a few days later although when he went to test it everything worked perfectly. He said BT probably adjusted settings on their end which fixed it.
I tried a speed test straight away and my speed had dropped from 50 to 30 Mbps. Its been the same since and speaking to BT they don't really care as its within limits.
Would anyone be able to explain the drop in speed?
btw - I'm not talking about while i am watching TV on the vision box then its even slower...
Same with a wired or wireless connection.
Also my stats below seem to be different from others i've seen with the difference between max connection and actual download. Any comments appreciated

I've just noticed the same thing with me.
I have a Draytek router, and its data flow monitor is showing a constant downloading at around 20mbps, whether I'm watching any IP channels on Vision or not. Broadband speed does not go higher than 20Mbps or so.
What is this and why is it happening?

Slow Youtube videos and loading web pages - Tests ...

Hello. I've been having this problem for over a week now. Whenever I try to watch a Youtube video or load a web page it is incredibly slow and most of the time they don't even load. I've phoned up customer service 4-5 times and had several online chat sessions but no one has been able to resolve my problem. It is quite strange as all the speedtests I run show that I'm getting 19-20Mb/s, but I can hardly even load a 144p Youtube video.
I will say that it is not always like this, sometimes throughout the day everything will run fine but mostly it's incredibly slow, especially the Youtube videos.
I really hope that someone here can help me solve my issue as I feel like I've tried everything.
Thanks

10min Youtube fix??

Hi All
I am running iMovie 9 and I am so frustrated with the fact that I can't upload a movie longer than 10mins direct from iMovie to youtube. Apple bring out this wonderful software that does everything at the click of a button but don't keep it up to date - bizare!
Does anyone know of a way of getting around this or turning off this restriction.
I am aware that you can export the movie and then upload it on youtube but I find the quality doesn't remain the same as if direct from iMovie.
I hope you can help or someone from apple can put out a notice as to when this will be fixed.
Deldboy.
P.S. Message to Apple - please create a public notice board showing that you recognise the problems that people are having with software issues such as this and approx fix dates - keep your customers happy.

This is a common problem with an iPhone that has been hacked to be unlocked for use with another provider than the iPhone is intended for or carrier locked with, and the same when jailbreak has been used.
If you aren't using a hacked/modified iPhone, check the date and time. The date and time not being set properly on an iPhone has also been reported to cause this problem.

Lion is slow, unresponsive - fixes?

Hello all,
I've gone through several topics simialar to this one, but cannot seem to see an answer.
System:
MacBook Pro, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8GB of 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM
500GB HD, partitioned with 400GB to OSX and 100GB to BootCamp for Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate
Challenges:
The system has a pretty slow start-up to get "warm", or ready to run applications. As I attempt to access menus and such, the lag time between click and action is beyond anything I have ever seen. Sometimes even several seconds.
I need to use virtualization to work in Windows and OSX at the same time. My VM was Fusion 4, and I am now trying Parellels 7. The VM is built to use just under 4GB of RAM - making a 4/4 split for each OS.
History:
This system was an upgrade installation from a previous OSX 10.6 install, whcih was in turn an upgrade from 10.5
Attempted Fixes:
1) reset SMC
2) verified permissions and disk health both inside and outside the OS (via the Utility/Revovery partition)
3) used CleanMyMac to remove several older Applications that I no longer use and/or that were Universal Apps
What I am trying to avoid:
I don't want to scrub the system and re-install everything. Mostly, becuase I have serveral dozen Apps and re-installing them would be time-consuming to say the least. I'm also not sure what would happen to my Boot Camp partition and I want to keep it.
So.... I am wondering if there is a way to re-install LION without removing my BootCamp parition, documents, and Applications.
I do have a Time Machine back-up of the system and will resort to a full re-build if it comes down to it, but that is one of the reasons I moved from Windows - I don't want to have to do complete re-installs of the OS every 6 months.
Thanks in advance for any ideas/suggestions that you can provide. I'm also going to try to adjust my VM settings to a 3/5 split to give OSX a little more room. However, even if the VM isn't running OSX can be slow.... so I'm not holding my breath on that fix.

If you restart in Safe Boot mode then continue to log into your User's account is safe boot, do you see a difference?
* shutdown
* start the Mac and *wait* for the startup chime to sound
* after the sound, press and hold down the shift key
* keep holding and *wait* until the grey  Apple logo appears
* now release the shift key and just wait (it could take a few minutes)
* eventually the login screen appears with the words SAFE BOOT
These are some of the items disabled on safe boot:
Disables all fonts other than those in /System/Library/Fonts
It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS/(uid)/
Disables all startup items and login items

Slow Keyboard fix

So i have 2.02 and i still have the slow keyboard. I found an easier fix than restarting though. If you exit SMS, play a song for sec or 2 in the ipod function, and then return to the SMS the keyboard miraculously works.

Heh, this is actually getting comical if not downright absurd.
I thought this level of half-assed fixes died with the original Nintendo when you had to push the cartridge in halfway to get it to work.
Way to go Apple! Great product.
