YouTube subscription error on my Apple TV!

I have just finished setting up my new Apple TV. It has the latest update. I'm having an issue with YouTube on Apple TV though. Basically, I have my YouTube account set up, but when I click on my subscriptions, Apple TV gives me the following message:
No content was found. There is a problem communicating with YouTube. Try again later.
I get this EVER time I try to see my subscriptions on my Apple TV. I have no trouble seeing my subscriptions on the YouTube website or the YouTube app on my iPhone though. What is going on?
Please help!! Thanks.

I agree, but Apple never seem to prioritise the Apple TV. Maybe that will change one day.
As for any other tips, I don't think I so I'm afraid! I've had an Apple TV for over a year and still enjoy using it for music, films, TV shows etc. Many have criticised the device, however I believe that it serves it's purpose for my media needs. I personally like the fact that I can stream wirelessly and have all my music accessible from my TV, played back though external speakers.
Anyway, hope you're enjoying it too!

Hardly any of my YouTube subscriptions work with my Apple TV using the latest software (24Aug2011).

Since the recent 4.3.3? update on my Apple TV Gen 2 I've noticed most of my youtube suscription channels display the channel name in the list but their channels are empty when I select them and some just display 3 random videos i.e. not the latest three videos...what's going on? This used to work fine!!! I can search for the videos and they play fine so it's not permissions on youtube it's 100% apples buggy untested software update.
Seriously Apple how can you allow this update into production without properly testing the youtube subscription channels!? surely it's gotta be a big thing to test!?
Please patch this asap and don't open a whole bunch of new bugs along the way! you end up resolving one issue and creating another 5! help!
Yes I've tried reboots and resets and none work!!!! it worked fine then a few seconds later I updated my ios software on the device and this problem occurred...grrrrrr
Anyone else?

Vanishing YouTube subscriptions

hi
Literally overnight more than three quarters of my YouTube subscriptions have vanished from Apple TV.
I know in the past people have mentioned how some YouTube subscriptions don't carry over to Apple TV very well, but I've ever heard of them disappearing when they've been working fine for over a year.
Is this an Apple or YouTube problem or "feature"? ;-P
k

I'm seeing a related issue regarding the paging of subscriptions where if you have more than X number of subscriptions, if you try to page to the next page of subscriptions nothing happens. This makes it impossible to view any subscriptions that don't already occur on the first page of results. Started happening a few days ago.

Apple TV restart often needed to view YouTube subscriptions

Ever since 2.4 software update, when I leave the Apple TV on overnight, and get up the next day, and go to check out my YouTube subscriptions (and sometimes, my Favorites), I just get the spinning indicator. One time I let it go for 3 hours... A restart of the Apple TV fixes the problem, but that's a pain in the behind. Anyone else notice this?

Thanks, WD.
Just removed and re-added it on the AppleTV. Guess we'll find out tomorrow

Youtube Subscriptions on Apple TV

I am subscribed to 30+ channels on youtube. On my computer, I can see a list of all these channels in my subscriptions section. On my Apple TV, however, I noticed that my newer subscriptions don't appear to be showing up, and only 25 user channels are shown in the subscription list. Does Apple TV limit its list to 25 subscriptions? Or is my Apple TV simply not updating its subscription list on a regular basis.

Hey
I'v been having same kind of broblems with my Apple TV 3rd gen. It only loads first page of subscriptions. When I click load more, nothing happens.

Apple TV & youtube subscriptions

Hi everyone,
I am just wondering if it is possible to browse your youtube subscriptions from AppleTV.

yeah, that's disappointing. I was hoping the long awaited software upgrade would add that menu feature, but it doesn't look like it, at least not in the videos on the apple website.

When will the youtube subscription limitation be fixed?

I have submited about this before, called support, taken my apple tv into an apple store.
I have heard the same story for months and months now...   "It's currently being looked at and will be fixed on the next software update"
That was quite a few software updates ago.
My Apple TV is still limited to only 25 youtube subscriptions as I know I'm not the only one with this issue, it clearly is something that needs to be addressed.
I know apple has little financial interest in fixing youtube on the apple tv, but based on the fact this was a major reason I bought the apple tv, I'm quite disappointed that something as simple as this has not be addressed.
It really is making me rethink bring any more apple products in my home, as this was my first apple experience, and to be frank, so far I'm not impressed in the least.
This is a documented issue so I've been told, and only requires a simple software update.

in addition to poor open GL performance, i've also had problems with any program utilizing antialiasing support. i recently sat down and called apple and had a discussion with their support line. while i didn't mention the poor open GL performance, i did mention the graphical errors i was experiencing with my MBP. i was told these issues are not normal, and have a replacment on the way. while these issues are some what numerous, i've not been able to find much more than a few articles or discussions on the topic. i'm hoping this means it is contained to a few MBPs and not all. we'll see when the replacment comes. if not, however, i'd consider a class action suit. the machine i bought was sold as a portable gaming machine, (apple.com/games/hardware) and thats not what i've gotten. i am very disappointed that apple has not even acknowledged the issue to let us know some fix is in the works. if enough of us make a big enough noise about it, perhaps we can get some sort of reply. i'd recommend you sending a note to apple as mentioned, then take some time to sit and give apple a call. they are very interested in listening to you, don't feel silly about calling about game perfromance, they are advertising these machines as such.
cheers

I updated an iPod touch, an iPad 2, and an iPhone 4 to iOS 6, and all of them now will not connect to WiFi. They all give this wierd 404 error page from Apple and insist that I need to login to the network. Bad job testing the software Apple.

Reset device, reset network, renew lease, etc. None of them work.

Does the iPod work OK?
Does it charge when connect to the computer?
Does it appear in My Computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1

iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

YouTube subscriptions out of date order after latest update

I just updated my Apple TV with the latest iOS update and now my YouTube subscriptions are out of order. Prior to the update, they would always be listed in date added order. Now they are all jumbled up. So, when I go to see the latest videos from someone who has posted over 100 videos on YouTube, I have to go through the entire list of 100 videos to find the newest videos. I've tried logging out of my YouTube account and then logging back in. I've also tried unsubscribing and resubscribing and that didn't work either. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

I know this really ***** and I have contacted them too. The way I get around this is to open youtube on a computer, go to my subscriptions and favoriting the ones I want to watch on my Apple TV. Then go to the APV and youtube favorites and there it is...... click and watch. I am on my IPAD now doing this and watching my lastest video's in my subscriptions.

ATV 2 4.2 build 8F191m - YouTube subscriptions and sort order

Is there a way to get subscriptions to sort by latest or newest?

I have just noticed this behavior as well. I can't tell what they are sorted by. PBSNewsHour as an example is not sorted by date, rating, views or alphabetically. It just seems random. Unless the UI is changed the only logical way to sort youtube subscriptions is to put the newest first.
Be sure to let Apple know about this if you are having the problem.

Update Did Not Fix YouTube Subscription Bug

Before 4.2, Apple TV sorted your YouTube subscription videos by latest/newest video. Now, it's sorted randomly which hurts the user and viewing experience, because we have no clue if the said subscription/channel has posted a new video or not. (and some of my subscriptions have over 400 videos posted)
Could you PLEASE revert back to the sorting order before 4.2 OR give us a way to list videos by date added, most viewed, and top rated when viewing a YouTube subscription?
null

This should be fixed with 4.2.2 released today. I have not tested it yet.

Subscription error (more on the same)

This week I had posted that the subscription error had been resolved. I was wrong. I'm still getting them. I hadn't realized that somthing I did to my Apple Mail rules had made me think I wan't getting them. I set a rule to foward back to Apple Disc. and delete (I would have bounced them but you can't in Apple Mail rules) Anyway, I also set Apple Mail to remove from server after quitting mail so it made me think I wasn't still getting them. Someone posted me in Discussions ans advised me to (report post) and that a host might see it and I could write in there about my situation. But I can't because of my level. Those who don't know what I'm talking about, I've been getting a ton of subscriptions for >user name (OSXMESS) that's not me, I'm (ORIGINALOSXMESS) and I wish, Oh how I wish some host would fix this. IF your a host tell me what you need, info wise to fix this and I'll provide. Thanks I think.

I've wondered that, and can't really remember. But there is an osxmess now that certainly isn't me.
Those two sentences seem somewhat contradictory.
Once an account is created on these Discussions, it can't be deleted. So if you created that account in the past, it's still yours; you're just not using it any more.
It looks an awful lot like this is an account you set up yourself, for the following reasons:
• To me the osxmess posts sound a bit like your posts in terms of language choice and wording.
• The osxmess account was created on 5/24/07, three days before your originalosxmess account
• While sparse in terms of profile details, the osxmess account lists having an iMac, as do you.
• osxmess posted only one topic in that one day, then never posted again. This makes me think you might have created that account, posted there, then either forgot that account information or decided to stop using it and three days later created the originalosxmess account.
• osxmess' topic was responded to by QuickTimeKirk, the poster who osxmess seems to be subscribed to. I'd guess that you, as osxmess, either purposefully or inadvertently clicked on the "Subscribe to this user" link for QuickTimeKirk, so whatever email address is specified in osxmess' account is still receiving those subscription emails.
but it dosn't change the fact that I'm getting a subscription that isn't mine.
If you are certain that you didn't create the osxmess account, then this is true.
But if you created that account and, while using it, subscribed to something in this forum, the email address you specified for the osxmess account will continue to receive those subscription emails until those subscriptions are turned off.
I can't remember from previous threads... Have you checked your Keychain (in the Applications folder) to see if there are more than one Apple Discussions accounts with user names and passwords stored there? If you can find the login details for the osxmess account (if it is actually yours), you can then log in to that account and delete the subscriptions set up there.
Of course I could be wrong in my guesses, in which case a Host's intervention is required. But I have a strong feeling this is indeed an account you created and abandoned.

YouTube subscription screen shows no videos to view

After upgrading apple tv2 my YouTube subscription screen is blank after selecting the subscription. It appears there are no videos to view.

They must have done the same thing with the Iphone and Imac, cause they are not working either.

YouTube Subscriptions Bug

In YouTube Subscriptions, when I try to load "New Videos," it always gives me the same error message:
"YouTube not available."
It's been doing this all day. Anybody having the same problem?

Could it be that the app can only handle a certain number of unwatched subscription videos? I'm sure that Google's servers were running at full capacity yesterday with the release of iPhone 3.0, but I would expect it to be working by now. I have been noticing consistent problems with Google's cloud lately, which is why I actually replaced Google Apps with MobileMe.
I'm tired of loading up Byline to check my YouTube subscriptions. Anybody find a fix to this?
