Why isn't Netflix and youtube playing videos on my ipad

Every time i try to watch a video on Netflix or youtube it wont play. The videos wont load. I tried using the apps and safari and google chrome but no videos will play this first happened yesterday.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
Also, make sure your internet connection is working.

  • Netflix and YouTube 4k videos - Ghosting and/or Flickering

     I have a Model 58L8400U 4k TV
    Whenever I try to watch Netflix or YouTube 4k videos the sceen starts to either ghost or flicker - I than have to unplug the TV for 3-5min and it will work fine again. This happens everytime you switch from watching satelite back to Netflix.
    What is the problem?

    Peter -
    Tried that and they are every bit of useless!!!  They have zero clue as to what they are doing - All they want you to do is perform a master reset of the TV. Did that 3 tines with them and guess what, STILL THE SAME PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why have iplayer, music and YouTube apps stopped working on iPad 1?

    These have all stopped working on my iPad this week, any ideas on why and what to do?

    I also have an iPad1 and my YouTube app keeps giving me an "authentication failed" error.  It was working fine up until this morning.  I have tried everything I can find online to regain access including: verifying that I am using the correct user name and password, activating 2-step verification and several attempts at application-specific passwords...no luck so far.  I am going to try to resist the urge to keep trying for a while, hoping that maybe allowing it time to reset will help???
    I do not usually use the Music app, but  it seems to work okay for me.  I only have a single podcast on there, but it played okay when I tried it.  And I do not have iPlayer, so no idea about that one.
    Of course Apple online support is no help because my device is "too old" and I can't afford to spend $20 for them to talk to me.  Any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!!!

  • Netflix and Youtube will not play on Firefox but I can still hear sound and can pause with the space bar. Works fine on Internet Explorer.

    All of a sudden last night after Firefox restarted after an update I am no longer able to play Netflix or Youtube. I can hear the sounds from whatever I select to play but the browser is black and I can even pause using the space bar but no interaction with the cursor. Both Netflix and Youtube work fine on Internet Explorer... I tried updating plug ins, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling plug ins and I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox itself but nothing has helped. Not sure what steps to take next...

    Hello,
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • My AppleTV will not play anything over Air Play.  Every other function works perfectly, and my Internet/router are working at top speed.  I can watch HD Netflix and YouTube but nothing via my iTunes library on my MacBook or iPad.  All software is updated.

    Every other function works perfectly, and my Internet/router are working at top speed.  I can watch HD Netflix and YouTube but nothing via my iTunes library on my MacBook or iPad.  All software is updated.  The AppleTV will recognize that Air Play is trying to do it's thing, but with music files it sounds like they're skipping and video files just load endlessly. 

    I'm searching for an answer to almost the same exact problem, using almost the same exact hardware and software. Has an answer been found?
    The files that I'm trying to burn come from eMusic, and they are formatted mp3. Recently, (after the iTunes update to 9.2.3?,) they would not drag and drop from iTunes into Toast. From several different discussions I've tried working around this by dragging to the desktop first then dragging and dropping to Toast, going to Toast from a programmer's homemade help window, " iToons," and today, after talking with Apple support, going directly to Toast from my eMusic folder. Alas, all recordings do not perform like they use to. Sometimes they play and sometimes not. There is one I managed, that is listenable, but sometimes I have to put it in my car stereo over and over again as it gets ejected with an error code, sometimes, finally it takes it... Some of the recordings on other disks I've burned are not clean - they have white-noise sounds creeping in... I use to have none of these problems. One time as I was listening to a CD that managed to play, and it just stopped playing... Is there an answer out there to get back to how it use to be? Thanks for you help.

  • I canon play video from my ipad through my Apple TV after downloading ios7 any idea why?

    Is there any reason I can't play video from my ipad through Apple TV after downloading ios7?

    Home sharing isn't working either
    Which is why you can not use the remote app.  Did you turn on home sharing on your computer and on ATV?
    eve though they have the same Apple ID.
    Did you enter the ApplieID in the home sharing login though?  Or just in for the iTunes store, or iCloud, or photo sharing, or something else?
    Home sharing isn't working either, I can't play or transmit any video from my iPad to the Apple TV because it doesn't recognize it
    That would be AirPlay, not homesharing.  THey are not related.  Did you enable air play on all the devices?
    Have you run the network test tools on ATV?  Can ATV access the iTunes store, Netflix, etc?

  • Complaint - Netflix and Youtube (internet option) not working on Apple TV 2 - Please advise

    Netflix and Youtube (internet option) is not working on Apple TV 2 I bought - please advise how to fix this.  Please note this is not to do with signing in as the internet menu and option to sign in is not given at all on screen/within ATV2.  The only menu options which appear on screen are "computer" and "settings" and nothing else.
    I have read from some other posts this may be because of the country in which I am located (currently the UAE) - this of course is not an acceptable excuse and if the real reason I hope Apple will fix this immediately.  From the box I bought the description on the reverse side of the packaging clearly states "Plays movies and TV shows from Netflix, live and archived games from MLB, NBA, and NHL, and videos from YouTube and Vimeo".
    If it is a country specific/territory issue then the packaging must be changed for countries in which this does not work as this product is being missold to customers, especially as having the option to stream Netflix, YouTube and Vimeo is one of its unique selling points - without which I would not have bought it in the 1st place!
    Currently very disappointed in Apple (normally a complete Apple fan!)
    Any help appreciated (positive comments only thank you).

    In reply to the comment "You seem to be saying that the box that you have is different in some way".  I'm actually not saying that at all as I have no idea what your box says and therefore can't comment. 
    And unless you're on the packaging design or distribution teams it would be a giant leap to presume every single box around the world is the same based on the product being the same.
    As a marketing person I know companies of all sizes and shapes tailor their products to cater for individual markets.  E.g. coca cola cans have different designs based on distribution location and languages used in particular countries and even the product itself can differ, although this may not be the case with Apple of course.
    I'm simply describing what is on my box and I don't neccessarily mean to be abrupt however I certainly wouldn't waste my time typing on this forum to say the box says something when it actually does not.
    Let me know if you can postively affect the outcome of this problem/help in someway and I'll be sure to send the image.
    Thanks.

  • Volume is working on Netflix and YouTube but not on vine, snapchat, and Instagram

  • I have the apple univeral dock and AV cables and   can play videos and slide shows on my TV but not music How do I play the music

    I am trying to connect an IPOD classic to my TV to play music
    I have the dock and AV cables and can play videos and slide shows but not music

    Actually, i figured part of it out. When I'm playing itunes to my Apple Tv and Airport Express stations around the house, then turn on the mirroring, the itunes volume bar goes all the way to zero. I can bring it back up manually, and it will play on Apple TV, but it won't broadcast to multiple Airport Express speakers, the way it was doing before I turned on mirroring. It seems that mirroring turns off the airport express stations.

  • Trouble downloading Netflix and YouTube after updating to iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad 2.

    I updated to iOS 6.1.2 but some of my apps disappeared and when I went to download Netflix and YouTube, the install option for both are grey'd out and cannot select the FREE button the download the apps, please help.

    Hi, I actually checked that first and no restrictions on app install/delete. I also logged out of iTunes account, re-started my iPad but still no luck. In fact, when I search for Netflix, I can see another app called Dijit Remote and Nextguide that I can click on the "free" button to download but everything else, including Netflix button is grey and cannot be clicked.

  • Why isn't pages and keynote free anymore

    why isn't pages and keynote free anymore ? it was free about a month ago ?

    Today I was in the Apple Store here in Munich and had my first bad experience with Apple.
    When I talked to one of the employees and asked how I can get the free Pages for my MacBook Pro he interrupted me and said: "I don't know." When I tried to explain that it was listed in the App Store app in Mavericks and it is not there anymore in Yosemite, he interrupted me again and was quite harsh: "I can't help you. Call Apple Care, that's what they are there for."
    Maybe it was my fault. He had to stop a chat with a female co-worker because of a customer. That was not nice of me.
    As I don't want to pay 29 €/$ just to ask where Apple has hidden the gratis Pages software, I will take part in a Pages Workshop and hope I can get help there.

    What are your observed differences? Since this is a Google app, there's nothing that Apple can do.
