Why does my iPad take so long to load YouTube videos?
I don’t even bother to watch anything longer than 5-6mins, because it won’t load!
It takes forever and sometimes won’t even load, like it barely moves.
Some times if it is short, like a minute or two, it still freezes up.
Why!!.?? I just bought my iPad 3 weeks ago and it was always like this.

I know there is a website telling ipad users how to speed up youtobe video on ipad. I got a ipad, too. At the very beginning, I am also confused about the speed of converting video to my ipad. Now I use ipad video converter to convert my video. It is good! http://www.ipad-video.biz/how-to/how-to-speed-up-youtube-on-ipad.html
There are a couple of reasons the first being YouTube is Flash based and Apple or Steve Job that is doesn’t want Flash to be the main thing. The other is have you used the Apple App for the iPad download it and install it and see if that helps make it run better.

If it still freezes up think of looking into your Network speed test it and see how fast your connection is and tweak that.
