You Tube stalls on iPad, laptop, iMac & iPhone stream fine

Side by side, my iPad & my Mac Air. You Tube videos play back uninterrupted on the laptop, they stall and download very slowly on the iPad. This happens even when these are the only 2 devices on the network. I've had no wifi problems. I assume that since all things are equal besides the device I'm using to see You Tube that the capability of the iPad is less then the Air. Please correct me if I'm wrong!

I've tested playing YouTube on 3 different Wifi hotspots and streaming performance is terrible on all of them. One thing I've noticed is that the videos I'm having most problems with are HD videos. For example this video runs for 2mins 51secs. Using the iPad this is still streaming after 25 minutes, and has more or less stalled after having only streamed half the content. When I try to stream the same video on my laptop (using the same Wifi network) it takes 2 minutes to fully stream.
On the other 2 wifi networks I tested on, I was not able to improve on this stream time using the iPad.

  • How can I restore you tube on my iPad 2 that I mistakenly deleted

    please I need someone to help tell me how I can restore you tube on my iPad 2 that my son mistakenly deleted.
    Secondly I have never been able to access the iTunes Store on my device. Perhaps if I can, I may have been able to restore the Yountube.

  • HT1430 I suddenly can.t access you tube via videos via my iPad . Tried via safari and you tube app on iPad but it says no videos and  then ask me for  you tube password . Never had to use a pass word

    I suddenly can,t access you tube videos via my iPad. Tried safari and you tube app on iPad. I get no videos  and then it asks for you tube password. Not had that before.

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • 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!

  • Security flaw update - how do you know if your iPad and iMac are compromised/hacked?

    Can anyone explain how one might know if their iPad or iMac running Mountain Lion has been Hacked.
    I always use my wifi at home which is locked.
    On my iPad,
    messages popped up two days ago that the password for my apple    me.com account was wrong. When I tried to rectify that, I ended up with Apple freezing the account.  I checked the software and it says it is up to date.
    On my iMac
    On Friday and Saturday, messages intermittently popped up about certificates for one of my email accounts on their outbound server (GoDaddy but not Time Warner). On Saturday, I installed the latest update, but I am still getting the certificate message for the GoDaddy email,
    Does this mean I was already hacked?
    Is there anything else I should do? 
    Thank you.

    Sounds like your Apple ID may have been hacked. If it gets hacked, it's entirely possible for the hacker to take control away from you entirely, by changing the password, recovery e-mail and security questions, or even enabling two-factor authentication. If they have done the latter, you'll never see your Apple ID again, as Apple absolutely will not assist in recovering an account that has had two-factor authentication enabled.
    Since you're unable to log in at this point, you'll need to contact Apple. However, keep in mind that they may not be able to help you. There's very little proof that you own an Apple ID other than the information that the hacker could have changed by now. Still, Apple is the only one who can help with this.
    Regarding the GoDaddy e-mail certificate, that's harder to say anything about. You'll probably want to contact GoDaddy support about that one. It's likely to be an issue on their end - perhaps an expired certificate, or a certificate that was compromised and has now been revoked, or a simple configuration issue.
    None of this is likely to be related to malware.

  • I am having problems with video playback from the Internet such as you tube on my iPad. What's up?

    I am having trouble with video playback from the Internet such as you tube. What's up?

    Your video playback will also depend on your net speed. If you have slow internet, you will stream video slow. If your video stops and starts, you can try pausing it for a minute or so and then try to watch. Let more of it buffer before you try to watch.
    Sometimes your connection is so slow you literally play faster than it buffers, which means it stops and stutters continually

  • How do you get your ringtone that you bought on your iPad to your Iphone

    I bought several ringtones on my iPad because its a lot faster and I thought it would automatically sync to my iPhone like all my songs. But now I can't find the ringtones anywhere except my iPad sounds. It's not in my purchases or in my iCloud. Idk how to download it to my iPhone whiteout buying it again because that's like a total rip off. So if anyone can help me that would be great. :)

    Transfer your purchases to your computer, as you should on a regular basis anyway.  Sync the other device with the updated iTunes library.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    As you have discovered, ringtones can only be downloaded once so there is no other way to do it.

  • How do you tell whether you are on an iPad or an iPhone?

    HOw does one tell the hardware you are running on, iPhone vs. iPod Touch vs. iPad? and how does one do this in such a way that it won't break later on as later revisions of the iPhone etc are released. Does apple have a generic + specific hardware coding system? Remember the old Carbon Gestalt() calls?

    Suggest using the confidential forums that are currently in place for iPad questions, etc.
    https://devforums.apple.com/community/iphone
    As well, if you feel comfortable working with beta software, take a look at the latest release and the associated docs in the Dev Center.

  • How do you transfer photos from ipad to imac

    how do I transfer photos from ipad to imac

    Depends on the photos.
    If the Photos were taken with the iPad or downloaded from the web onto the iPad, simply connect the iPd to the Mac  and use your favorite Photo Application to move them, or simply use Finder to open the iPad icon, (it will show up as a camera) and drag them from there to a folder on your computer.

  • ITunes 9.2.1 iPad painfully slow, iPhone 4 fine

    Ever since I updated to version 9.2.1 the backup time for my iPad is painfully slow.
    I ran a backup on my iPhone4 and it took about 5 minutes for a full backup and sync. So I ran downstairs, grabbed an adult beverage from the fridge, started working on my mac mini. After 60 minutes I went to grab some info off the iPad and it's still backing up an hour later.
    System:
