iPad has trouble with Youtube videos When playing long youtube videos on my ipads, they repeatedly pause or I get the spinning circle. This is accessing Youtube with Safari. This happens on my 9.7" iPad Pro and my brand new iPad Mini. Most of the videos are 3 hours long, but typically within 30-60 minutes, it will stop playing and I get the spinning circle and typically have to reload the page. Other times, for testing purposes, I'll let it play and I'll periodically check it and usually it is paused. I don't know if the spinning circle eventually leads to just being paused or not. But it will keep happening every 30-60 minutes, though sometimes it happens much sooner. It is NOT a slow connection! I have a 1 Ghz internet connection and even with the wifi connection, Speedtest will show hundreds of Mbps. Today I even tried attaching an ethernet adapter - it gave me 940 Mbps but the videos still stop! It is especially annoying when it is a live stream and I'm going to miss something during the process to get it playing again. I've tried using "Focus" to prevent interruptions as well as turning off content blockers. I've tried restarting and other things. Nothing seems to work. If it goes a long time, it just seems to be luck and very rare. It does not happen with Safari on my Mac. And it may not do it on my iPhone. At least I know it doesn't do it as much, but I rarely use that. I have done brief tests with another browser, but it does the same thing.

Safari crashing and glitching fix? Oh I just got my iPad Pro 12.9 on 26 October and I’m having problems with Safari. At first I thought it was my Internet connection but I ruled that out and I also ruled out cellular versus Wi-Fi. I’m getting intermittent connection loss through Safari only especially on YouTube. If I use the YouTube app, I do not have these problems, which are resizing content on YouTube to where content is hanging off screen, freezing or non loaded webpages when scrolling even when not on the YouTube website. I can scroll down, then back up and webpage is now blank. I also can’t unsubscribe or edit posts in YouTube through Safari, but don’t have this problem through the YouTube app. I tried clearing browser cache, reset the iPad, delete “everything” and starting over. The problems still persist. So either the 16.1 update didn’t install correctly or Safari is the problem. I prefer Safari due to more efficient use of system resources netting me better battery life. What should I do to correct the problem? So do I need to go to Apple and have them reinstall the operating system or wait for an update to Safari Thanks.

Problems Watching Videos on Safari on iOS 15.0.2 I recently upgraded the OS of my iPad to 15.0.2. Ever since then, I have been experiencing difficulties when watching videos on Twitter as well as a few other websites on Safari. Some times, the videos don't play at all. Other times, the audio plays while the audio either remains static or is completely black. I tried emptying my cache on Safari, but it didn't do any good. Has anyone else encountered these problems? Or is it just me? Any assistance or advice will be most appreciated. Thanks.
