Youtube videos refuse to play.

I have a Blackberry Pearl 8130 and I have tried to play countless youtube videos on it, it always says loading then about a minute later it says video error, is there any way to fix this because it's one of the whole reasons i picked a "smartphone"

um, all i can think is that you dont have enough virtual memory. its a well known problem of this phone having such small memory becuase i can play youtube videos on mine, actually they play through the video player in the media section when i click on them, but i have a 2 Gig memory stick in my 8130. also if you do have a memory card but it still doesnt seem to work then in the options try putting the media support on. if the problem still occurs then i dont know what the problem could be. also a memory card may not be needed but that seems to be the only differnce between my blackberry and yours, oh actually try turning on some settings in the internet options screen. go to browser, hit menu key, go to brower options. i have most of the settings on so i dont have to worry about not being able to read certain sites. but the draw back is sites load a tiny bit slower but not enough that you have to wait more than about 45 sec

  • Youtube videos are not playing back

    Youtube videos are not playing back in Safari 5.1.7. I've also checked this in Firefox 16.0.2.
    I am running OS 10.6.8.
    Why is this happening? I need this capabilitiy for my work efforts.
    Thanks (in advance)!

    I'm having similar problems to you all.  Chrome and Firefox will play YT videos back perfectly.  But for some reason certain users' entire channels that were working fine in Safari on Thhursday 1st Nov 2012 had stopped working by the next day!  After upgrading Flash and resetting the cache etc it was a bit better but still some not working.  I then downloaded the 6.0.2 update (again after a bit of aggro as some error message kept popping up, then after a while it worked ok).  Now still some videos refuse to play in Safari.  Latest FF browser seems OK and not too slow.  I have always liked Safari though and am a bit annoyed that I've had to to make FF my default as it's a bit ugly.  It may be a YT problem rather than Apple.  Once upon a time in the hazy crazy days of Tiger and Leopard I had no Apple problems.  Now lots of very minor but basic issues keep popping up! 

  • YouTube videos do not play

    Hi All,
    Before I pull the plug on FireFox, I'll try once more. YouTube Videos do not play. They start then stop with the cryptic error message "An error has occurred.... Other videos play fine. YouTube videos play fine on that other browser. I've tried all the suggestions in this forum, my PlugIns were uninstalled and re-installed, Firefox was uninstalled and re-installed and No, I do not live in India. Anybody have any idea what's wrong. What's Google doing that Mozilla can't figure out?

    Do you have the latest version of Flash Player? Download Flash Player at get.adobe.com/flashplayer and install it. Also, is your internet slow? Try changing your quality on the video to low when the video starts to see if it does the same thing.

  • Youtube videos doesn't play until fully loaded

    Youtube videos doesn't play until they are fully loaded. It doesn't work for ANY streamed video, not just Youtube. It happens on both Firefox and IE. I tried to uninstall Flash and re-install it, but it didn't help. The only thing that solves it is restarting the computer, but it just returns after some time.
    How can I fix it?

    Hi, This is the info on the hardware acceleration and system requirements. http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html 
    The video card affects playback:Although Flash Player can display high-quality video and images by itself, hardware-accelerated scaling uses the video or graphics card on your computer to display images and video more clearly and quickly than Flash Player can on its own.
    Not everyone can use it and that's why turning it off helps. Since you have it turned off, then this no longer affects you.
    They may be some add on in the browser that is causing this. Kaspersky had been using a URL Advisor that is an "extension"
    but whether you have it I don't know. In IE, in the manage add ons, look for "Show"(very light text) and look in all 4 categories for it.
    In FF, it may be in the extensions. I'd look in all, addons, plugins & extenstions.
    If you find it, disable it. If you don't find it, then all I could suggest is to disable all IE add ons except Shockwave Flash Object and Java and see it there is an improvement. Then do the same with FF.
    Hope you find out what is causing it.
    Thanks,
    eidnolb

  • Youtube videos don't play after upgrading from 3.x to 4.0.1.

    Youtube videos no longer play after upgrading from Firefox 3.x to the new 4.0.1.
    The youtube page loads completely but the video never starts.
    Firefox displays the page like its done downloading the video, but no video.
    It displays as "done" loading the page with no activity in the page tab or bottom bar... but the video screen is black. Everything but the video loads.

    Hi There
    I seem to have experienced the same problem, after applying the APEX 4.0.2 patch, my theme produced errors on the new type of date picker. I use the Bravo theme.
    I am now trying to purchase the Delta theme, but unfortunately I see today on the Apex-Themes website that the themes are not available to purchase anymore.
    Did you manage to resolve your issue? And do you maybe by any chance know where I can get hold of the Delta theme now?
    Regards
    Marissa

  • Embedded YouTube videos do not play on my Mac Mini

    Embedded YouTube videos don't play in non-YouTube web pages.  I can click the link in the top of the video to be taken directly to YouTube, and I can watch the video there, but when I click the big Play button in the middle of the video window, I just get a black rectangle.
    I tried uninstalling Flash player as suggested in another thread, rebooted my machine, and reinstalled Flash player, but that did not fix the problem.  This is a non-Flash player problem that Apple should look into.  I have not tried this on other browsers to see if I have the same problem there or not, as I do not use other browsers besides Firefox.  I would rather not have to use another browser just so that I can watch embedded YouTube videos.  I would prefer if Apple (or another knowledgeable user) can post the solution to the problem.  Thanks!

    In Firefox, click Tools>Add-ons. Make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is enabled and "Always activated".
    If that fails, see: How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X  in the Adobe Forums. That will clear out the pluigins and allow a fresh install with the new plugin.

  • Certain youtube videos won't play in Firefox

    Firefox 20.0.1, windows 7, flashplayer up to date.
    Certain youtube videos won't play. The advert beforehand plays, and then the video just displays a black screen, no loading, trying to skip to a later time in the video doesn't work. It seems to be certain youtube users whose videos won't play, users whose videos I was able to watch only yesterday. The featured video on the user's channel is watchable, but not when opened separately.
    IE won't show the affected videos either.

    In addition to these symptoms, I've noticed that I can view these troubled videos on my cellphone just fine, but neither my XP or Win7 machine, which have all software updated can view. So if it was on youtubes side, it wouldn't work on my phone either.

  • Can i capture and record a youtube video that is playing on my screen using quicktime?

    How can i capture and record a youtube video that is playing on my screen using quicktime?

    Hi Paul, QuickTime X can record video and here is the tutorial for you: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5882?viewlocale=en_US. I'm wondering why you don't just download it using some free YouTube downloader, easy and fast.

  • Youtube video is not playing on my macbook pro laptop. I have norton anti virus and firewall installed on it.

    youtube video is not playing on my mac pro laptop. Just a blank screen shows up where the video should be playing. I have norton anti virus and firewall installed on the laptop. Could it have something to do with it?

    unless you have a partition for another operating system, such as Windows or Linux, most mac users would agree that any a/v software is completly unnecesary and will do more harm than good.  There is a free a/v in the appstore called "ClamXav.   Have you installed all software updates and also have you tried youtube using different browsers (chrome, safari, opera, etc)?

  • Youtube videos will not play on Ipod touch 5 after ios update

  • YouTube videos no longer play on Macbook Pro

    I don't remember the exact time that this started but I keep getting "An error Occurred Please try again later".   W\hen I try to watch a  Youtube Video.  This happens on Safari and Firefox with Mavericks.
    I can watch some YouTube videos from other websites but there is no sound.  I can watch a video on Facbook from Firefox  but the same video in Safari will only play for a few seconds without audio then stop.  This happened on other sites with videos.
    About 2 weeks ago I had some Malware.  The guy from Apple cleared my caches, removed Flip4Mac and did some other things which caused a bunch of other issues.  Firefox was like I had never had it set up.  All my bookmarks and extensions were gone.  I had to completely rebuild it.  However I believe I was still able to see videos after that I believe.  I had a lot of problems with settings being changed.
    The other new things is last Friday I got a new Zoom modem.  I'm not tech savvy so I have no idea if that could cause this kind of problem. 
    Can anyone help me?  I don't have a clue where to start with this. 
    Thanks
    I just restarted my computer and some videos are playing with sound in Youtube and the one I couldn't see on Facebook in Safari is working but other's will not play.  Is that just the video?

  • IPAD youtube videos will not play on "base" wifi but play on "4G" wifi

    This problem affects my IPAD2 IPAD3, iphone 4s, iphone 4 with same presentation. All my devices on iOS 7.0.3 .. problem started a month ago about time first upgraded to iOS7  . my ISP at home upstream of my AP is ATT uverse .. ATT is also my provider of 4G wifi via my iphone ..  on my home network I use a higher end watchguard router / firewall appliance and for wifi the watchguard AP200s
    While connected to my home base wifi, I attempt to play youtube video (several different ways described below) the youtube opens and clearly finds the video but screen says “Playback error Tap to retry”
    Next if I turn on the hotspot from my iphone and connect all ipads etc via 4G WIFI then exact same steps result in the video loading and playing NORMALLY … ?? dns issue 
    Summary of troubleshooting steps so far;
    -my Microsoft surface tablet connected to base wifi .. if I run same exact link / video it runs perfectly .. so clearly the base  wifi is ok with surface tablet and youtube videos ..
    -all wired PCs etc at on network can run youtube videos with no issues ..
    -ipad - deleted youtube app and reinstalled … same problem
    -ipad - reset all settings  .. same problem
    -ipad - deleted all cookies and data on safari .. same problem
    -ipad – turned cookies to accept all cookies … same problem
    -ipad – deleted youtube app and forced to run from safari browser .. same problem
    -ipad – manually added 8.8.8.8 as alternative dns to the base wifi .. same problem
    -iphones have same behavior but the workaround is very easy here just turn off wifi .. forces down the 4G .. that works fine but for testing purposes I connect to base and all issues mentioned above on ipads are replicated
    -rebooted / power cycled ATT RG, WG router, WG AP200s … no change (did this near beginning of troubleshooting)
    Any ideas?

    Ok I will answer my own issue .. sort of
    Partially solved the problem. Seems there is a generalized problem with firewalls and the youtube / apple.
    Adding an exception to the firewall for AV scanning allowed the youtube app to start working but accessing the youtube via safari still does not work. Also after adding the exception I had to delete and reinstall the youtube app. 
    Again before adding this exception .. if I connected to to wifi via my ATT cellular hotspot .. both the app and the safari youtube videos played correctly.

  • YouTube Video Won't Play

    I am having a problem with just one video on YouTube, and I
    can't
    explain it or get it to play; it just shows the Loading
    screen
    indefinitely. Here is a link to the video:
    Extreme Funny:
    http://youtube.com/watch?v=GuMMfgWhm3g
    The clip plays fine on three other computers. I can also load
    a clip
    from the same author (
    http://youtube.com/watch?
    v=bYcsyc_iKS8&mode=user&search=) with no problem.
    This is on a Toshiba Satellite laptop running Windows XP SP2
    and IE6.
    It has AVG antivirus and no firewall or proxy.
    Here are some of the steps I have taken so far:
    * Tested the clip in Mozilla Firefox (wouldn't play there
    either)
    * Cleared the Windows Prefetch directory
    * Added a FLV extension to the file types and associated it
    with the
    Flash Player (removed after unsuccessful testing)
    * Checked the YouTube help files and followed their
    suggested course
    of action:
    o Uninstalled the Adobe Flash Player and reinstalled it
    o Checked the default program for streaming media
    o Checked for popup software
    o Checked for firewall interference
    * Analyzed the link to the embedded clip and compared it to
    another
    by the same author (no difference)
    * Checked the AVG AntiVirus logs for interference
    * Tested a larger video clip which played with no problem
    * Changed Internet security settings to Default (IE6)
    * Increased the available size of the Temporary Internet
    Files
    folder since the FLV clip is 12MB.
    * Cleared the Temporary Internet Files folder to force a
    refresh
    of the download
    I still can't get this clip to play without copying the
    downloaded
    file in the Temporary Internet Files to the desktop and
    launching with
    a third-party flv player. It doesn't look like it is a
    network
    communication problem either, since:
    * the Extreme Funny clip is located on the YouTube domain
    * other clips from the YouTube domain play without any
    problem
    * the Extreme Funny clip plays fine on other systems
    Can anyone figure this out?? Please help!

    Turns out I was using the Beta HTML Player. Unchecked that box and it is fine now using Flash. It worked fine until I updated Safari. My system is up to date.

  • Embedded Youtube Video's not Playing in Web Viewer

    I have several YouTube videos embedded in my folios. They all play fine when being viewed in the app, but if the folio is shared (by any channel) and viewed in the web viewer these videos won't play. Instead the user is greeted by this error:
    Not found
    Invalid character in path
    I know that other apps using embedded youtube videos are playing just fine in the web viewer (I check out Wired) so I'm curious why mine are broken.
    Any thoughts?

    This streaming YouTube example works fine in DPS Tips web viewer:
    http://contentviewer.adobe.com/s/DPS%20Tips/7f80a0ffed3a4ff08734bc905aac4a29/Advanced_Over lays/29_Video_Stream.html

    <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/QV1UZ-88HeE?rel=0" frameborder="0" ></iframe>
    Are you using the same embed code format for your overlay?

  • Youtube videos do not play properly

    I appreciate any suggestions with this problem. I have a Mac G4 laptop (PowerPC) running OS 10.4
    Most web videos do not play properly on my computer, especially if they use Adobe Flash Player. (QuickTime videos play fine.)
    I have had my internet connections checked by my provider, and the speed is very good, and the configuration is OK, so they do not understand why I am having trouble. When I try to play YouTube videos, I get a slideshow, with a new frame every 2 or 3 seconds. I have tried using my computer on my friend's internet connection, and it has the same problem. My friend can watch the same YouTube video perfectly well on his own computer, even though his download speed is much slower than mine.
    I have already tried the following fixes several times:
    complete uninstall of old versions of Flash Player
    reinstall of the latest version of Flash Player. (My computer does recognize that the player is there, as I said, it just plays the video as a slideshow.)
    Repairing permissions and restarting
    resetting Safari, manually clearing cache, cookies, etc. (Although I also have the same problem in Firefox)
    Downgrading to Flash Player 9
    Trashing QuickTime Plugin.webplugin
    Trying to trash all DivX files (I don't have any, it turns out)
    making sure audio midi settings are for 44.1
    trashing the Macromedia preferences folder
    None of these things have helped me. Thank you in advance for any other ideas of things to try.

    Rogerskth,
    Sorry, I wasn't clear. My computer NEVER played flash videos properly, with any version of Flash. Considering that Flash is maxxing out my CPU power (as measured by the Activity Meter) I suppose that slow CPU speed really IS the cause of my problem. Since you have a faster computer, and your computer used to play the videos OK, it seems likely that your problem is SOME OTHER mysterious problem.
    Bungee33,
    You might be pleased to know that in English we have the same expression as the German which you quoted
    "we in Germany say, that a horse given as a present must not be critizised  by judging the teeth in the mouth of the animal"
    In English, we say "don't look a gift horse in the mouth."
