Is YouTube Working For You RFN?
 

I can not watch any video on YouTube. Just keeps trying to load.

I can see LiveLeak, and Vimeo vids, but no YouTube.

Anyone else having issues?


ETA:

I get no love from any link to the YouTube vids, from here, or any where else. Nor from YouTube's own site.

works fine for me

Well, shit.

I was really hoping someone else was having trouble.

I may have to update my old Firefox.

Thanks.

I just tried to play YouTube vids on my Nook, and couldn't play them on it either.

WTF?

The YouTube app on my Nook gets me nowhere, either.

Try logging out

The program I use to download vids, won't.

Vimeo, Liveleak, Bacefook vids, NetFlix all work for me.

I really don't want to update Firefox. Really don't.

Internet Explorer will not YouTube either.

WHAT. IN. THE. FUCK?

Of what? I wasn't logged in to YouTube, never have been just to watch a vid.

I can't get Youtube videos on any device (PC, or Nook anyway) with FF, IE, or Chrome.

I've tried everything I know. The house I live in will no longer YouTube.

Let me check the television, but, I'm betting no love.



ETA: I can also get YouPorn vids, so it's not the end of the world. Back to the tv.

The Vizio television will get YouTube vids.

And now I get them on the PC, in FF. YouTube works now.

Off to try the Nook.

And now the Nook is getting YouTube vids. The YouTube app on the Nook will not pull up vids, nor open properly.


I say again WTF, man?

DNS to Youtube was somehow broken at your router or internet provider's level.

Thanks.

Never had that happen before.

Happened again today. No YouTube on any device.

Until I tried the tv.

YouTube worked on the tv. First try.

No problems on any device after accessing the site via television.

Any ideas? Anyone?

Bueller?

You can try rebooting your router to see if it re-picks up whatever bit is failing.

It's the Russians. I had a bunch of missed emails last week (from multiple reliable people who swear they sent them, and I swear they never came in) and also I-and-other-people-I-know have had wonky cell service, where the phone will ring with an empty call, and when I call the number back the person swears they never called me.

I, for one, don't have the energy to give a shit who my overlords are.

I wonder why accessing with the tv sets things right.

It's using the same router. By 'rebooting the router', do you mean using the reset button on the back of the router? Or the power-off-wait-a-minute-power-back-on?

I tried the reset button on the back when I had this problem the other day. The tv was what set things right. Like today.

I spoke too soon.

It's doing it again.

The tv gets youtube.

And nothing else does.

This is starting to piss me the fuck off.

Nothing I use will get youtube.

The goddamned tv, which I do not use, for anything, gets youtube and nothing else will.

And everything comes through the same router?

Only one we have.

Of course, everything's working hunky dory rfn.

In 5 minutes...who knows?

It is the original and still most powerful diagnostic. Execute
