RogerH Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Hi Folks, I have a problem getting YT to load and play. I can get most clips working that are posted on here but if I choose something from the web I get boxes asking if I want 'autoplay' and then it produces an error message. It also asks if I want to sign in - I click no. It is driving me mad. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stillp Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 It's working OK for me. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted December 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Hi Pete, I am so pleased that your YT reception is spot on. It warms me to the core to know that others are not suffering in the way that I am. But I still can't get YT. Mumble Grumble Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That happens for me too Roger only way to get it working is to delete all you-tube and Google cookies and refresh the page several times. Sometimes it then works. The fool-proof method I have found is to change the 'user agent' of the browser from the default to ipad mini. It depends whether you have that option available.

stillp Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 What browser are you using? Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted December 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Chrome Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Harbottle Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 I think the message do you want to sign in etc is appearing on most if not all YT viewers. they are trying to get more people to register/post/ PAY for certain things. I just keep saying no. And yes it is driving me mad also!!! Paul Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted December 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Thanks Paul, I didn't want to sign as - most things cost me money. It all works fine on IE. So it must be a Chrome issue. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stillp Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 I'm on Chrome, and it's working fine. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted December 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Hi Pete, I'm sure we do not have a dodgy Chrome pandemic. Something in my machine is playing up. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stillp Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Do you have an adblocker Roger? They can sometimes cause problems with YouTube. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted December 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 I suspect not as I get far tooooo many ad's coming through Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SeanF Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 No problem with signing up to an account on YouTube Roger, especially if you use an old never used email address. This is what I have done. The main reason I like it because it learns the kind of videos you like to view and suggests others you might want to watch. Currently everything to do with Triumph Bonnevilles for me . Keeps me entertained to see what they are suggesting I watch next. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
