Youtube App is buggy
I cannot believe how buggy the Youtube App since it's update a few weeks back. I have to sign in to my Google account at least every other day Sometimes clicking does not open a channel and I have to completely back out and go back in to go to the channel to get any response.
How did this app pass testing? I hope they fix it or bring back the old Youtube App.

Not entirely sure if this is the right place to ask this but....
So when I watch youtubes videos that longer than 5 minutes or so the youtube app is constantly trying to buffer. I have fast enough wifi I just did the ookla speedtest and my download speed is 56.84 mbps and my upload is 10.01 mbps so I don't think that's the issue.
The symptoms:
Whenever I watch average length youtube videos through the app (haven't tried through chrome or anything) the video is constantly combatting itself for video quality. I can watch a 10 minute youtube video and the video quality will hop around 240p to 1080p to 720p to 480p down 144p in a matter of seconds. The video will not pause but the quality jumps all the over the place throughout the entire video.
Kind of ruining the experience.
Also when I pause you can watch the buffer bar jump back and forth. Not buffered to ~30 seconds and back like bouncing back for instantly.
Hopefully I'm not crazy and this is happening to other people.
I have an ipad air 64gb version. Most updated version of youtoube app from May 8,2014My ISP is cox. I just did another Ookla test through my desktop. Speed is still the same. I had a problem with a teaching website awhile back so I called their support and they had me run some other connection tests and they said that my signal was sporadic and that I wasn't my connection it was the signal coming from my ISP.
Youtube.com works fine through my ipad but the app is still buggy. The hard resest I did earlier brought everything back to normal for about a day then it jumped right back into the same routine. Netflix streams without any issues vimeo is fine too. I'm really starting to think it's just the app and people who are having trouble need to make it a known issue.
Also just read my original post and my grammar is ****... -

When I try to update my youtube app, I'm asked to sign in with my apple password but the email it shows is my sons! In my settings it still shows my email. Nowhere in my settings on my Ipod or if I sign in to Apple with my computer does it show his email. Can anyone help???
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them. Thus it appears that yor sone purchased the app.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account. -
Unable to load youtube videos. Neither browsing nor the youtube app are working, the video start loading but nothing more happen. This issue is hapenning after I updated to iOS 6.
Try this first.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
And then try this.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
And ... Are you using the mobile YouTube website?

Facebook and YouTube app connection
How do I reconnect the Facebook and YouTube apps to my internet, which is working fine, on my iPad air. The apps work fine on my 5c, but only recently started having network and connection issues.
Hi, Jvc_11.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are experiencing internet issues with a couple third party applications. I would need a little more information regarding how you are connecting to the internet and if the issue is present on other apps to provide a better answer. However, this may be related to Wi-Fi connectivity. I would recommend going through the steps in the article below.

How do I search for playlists with the new Youtube App?
I just got home to find the new Youtube app on my Apple TV. It seems great, but searches no longer find playlists, only individual videos. As most of my Youtube viewing on Apple TV is Let's Play playlists, without the ability to search for playlists, the app is nearly useless for me.
Am I just overlooking something or did they really remove the ability to search for playlists?Open the Camera app. Swipe the screen up or down to change the mode.

Why does the YouTube app on the iPad Air 2 crash after posting a comment?
I got a brand new iPad Air 2 about 2 weeks ago, and ever since I started using the YouTube app, I've had a few issues. Every time that I post a comment or reply to a comment, the app crashes. This can be very annoying, especially when it happens in the middle of watching a video. When I re-open the app, I have to go back, find the video I was watching, and find the exact time that I was at before the app crashed. I need to do this every time, and this prevents me from being able to reply to comments or post anything at all. I had the YouTube app on my old iPad 2 which I had for about 4 years before upgrading to the iPad Air 2, and I never had any problems such as this one. I am not sure whether there is something wrong with my iPad, or maybe it could just be a bug within the app, which in that case, the developers would need to fix. Please let me know what you think of this issue, thanks.
Delete youtube app from iPad and then download it again. Or try clearing out youtube like press home button twice and clear the Q out.

How do I get the old YouTube app back...
...becasue the new one *****.
It wants to play one video after another, non stop. I just want it to play the video I choose and then do nothing until I tell it to play another one. This is very annoying.
Also, if I pause a video to read some text on the screen I can't see the text becasue it throws a menu up in the middle of the screen. Who thought that was a good idea?
It is becoming apparent thta the new YouTube app is un-usable for me.Only some of the channels do that, so it must be by design by the content provider(s). I think the Smithsonian Channel is one that does it, but I am not near an Apple TV to check.
Have a nice day. -
Just like the topic states........updated iPad, and lost the YouTube app, and no it's not because of restrictions cause I've checked......it's gone and I can't get it back, I've even hooked up to my computer and iTunes to see if I could get it back there also but no luck there either. Any help would be appreciated

The application Youtube is gone from the home page and is no longer listed in the Settings. When I use Safari to access Youtube most of the videos will not play and state "Not authorized by subscriber" or another such statement. All of these same videos can be acessed by my PC so this is very frustrating. Any suggestions or help will be appreciated! Thanks.
The YouTube app is not included in iOS 6 (I think because the licensing agreement with google ended). You will either need to try one of the YouTube apps from the store (there is an iPhone optimised app from google, and other people have said that they are working on an iPad version), or (if this isn't the version that you have tried) try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com (you can create a home screen shortcut for the site)

My youtube app is no longer working on my iphone 3. Others, with the same phone, are not having the problem. It works occassionally, but it's unpredictable. I've updated phone software, deleted the app, re-downloaded the app, turned the phone off and on...nothing.
You may have debris in your headphone jack blocking the sensor. Try blowing hard on the jack, and inserting/removing your headphones quickly multiple times to clear it.

WHen I first installed iOS 6 the App Store crashes...and now having iOS 6 for 2 weeks now, all my apps are buggy and now are crashing! Safari and built in apps are becoming slow and crash. I hate how apple leaves iPod touch 4g and iPhone 4 in the dark and basically force us to upgrade to newer devices. Apple could of done better with the update and needs to resolve these issues.
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
