How do I enable HTML5 on iPad 2 so I can watch tv online?

Actually, your iPad supports HTML5. What you're really seeing is a Flash video, which is not supported on iPad.

Check the App Store to see if the site you are trying to watch from has an App in the App Store.

If that doesn't work, there are Apps you can buy that do, with some limitation support Flash. Photon, Puffin and iSwifter. Buy the paid version, not the free "Lite" version.

You're welcome

Joesif, I was trying todo the same in new Zealand but got the same message. I saw your post then the answer of rbrylawski and checked out the applications. I read a bit and photon and swifter didn't seem to be what I needed to watch but puffin worked so I'm off to bed to watch tv show I missed on my iPad. Thanks rbrylawski!!

Thank you thank you!! Puffin seems to be the way to go with tv on demand in new Zealand. Cheers
