Can anyone use Youtube? or even better, can anyone update version of Youtube?
When I try to play any video, I get the error (Sorry, this video cannot be played). When I search Google. I see that there should be an updated version in the Market, but there is nothing there. I also tried to update with AppBrain but still doesn't work.
Any help?
anyone ??????????
Works for me, both the original and the updated version I got in the Android market.

you are probably in a region where youtube is not available on the market. I had the same problem, when I searched for official youtube app in the market, it doesn't appear. What I did was, I searched the updated youtube apk on the net, downloaded into the sdcard and installed it from there.
hope it helps.

mine works fine, both versions.
Thanks, I found all the google updates and updated but the error is the same. I'll look for problems in OpenDNS as I suspect that the problem is there.
nope, wasn't opendns but it worked after rebooting with the new updated version. I hope it stays like that.
I've searched around (and even tried the method mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086213&highlight=music) but to no avail: Even with my music invite (and I have uploaded music, and can access it without issue from a browser, or from my Thunderbolt) and the updated app, I still don't have an option for settings in the options menu in the music app (I just have "Shuffle all," "Hide now playing bar," and "Help."). When I go into applications, it shows that the music app version is 3.0.1, but I'm stuck without any means of connecting the app to the service.
Would appreciate any help.
I noticed that too. I checked my google sync options, synced and restarted my xoom and it worked shortly after I rebooted it. Now it shows up as an option under google sync.
I needed to go into the music app's settings and choose which google account I would use. Once I did that all my music appeared.

Thanks, I went ahead and tried that, but it didn't have any effect. Did you have music as an option under google sync before what you tried, or did that only appear after your reset? I can't get it either way.

How did you get into the music app's settings? That's basically my problem, I have no means of getting into the settings.
Usually when an app does not work properly especially after an update, the first thing you can try is going to Tablet Settings > Applications > Manage Application > Music then clear data and reboot and try again. Not sure if that will help here but worth a shot.

On my Xoom I was able to get into the app's setting without any issues. On my d2 I couldn't get into the music app's setting until I uninstalled and then installed it again. Might have to try that.
Your music version should be V3.0.1.339. I you just have version v3.0 you don't have access to the cloud.
The "Settings" feature is not present in the v3.0 version.
You have to update your music app via the US marked = use market access to do this.

I didn't have an option when I did the sync the first time. I also tried to update the music app but I didn't have an option to do so. Once I rebooted and I'm assuming it reloaded my google account to detect my music beta then updated the music app. Another thing you could try is signing out and signing back into your google account.
All right, I've tried stopping the music app, clearing data, and trying again. I also tried stopping the app, clearing data, uninstalling updates, soft resetting, then updating music again through the market. Still doesn't give me an option for settings.
When I check the version, I see 3.0.1.
Would anyone be willing to upload the apk they're using? I'm hoping that might help...
This happened to me when I got my invite. I uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared cache, data, uninstalled, resinstalled etc etc...it took a couple days before I saw a "settings" option in the menu. Now my problem is I can't get Music Manager to upload all my stuff when I want it to.

I've been trying it since I first posted, clearing the cache, resetting, uninstalling, reinstalling, etc. but with no luck so far. I guess I'll keep trying until someone comes up with a solution.
I just got my invite and I had this problem too.
The solution is to uninstall the app with titanium back up then reinstall through the market.

I got so excited when I read this...right up until I tried to uninstall music with Ti Backup...I click the Un-install button, which turns yellow, then hangs. Forever (ok, I only gave it a couple of hours, but I assumed that was enough).
Thanks for the suggestion though, at least I have a new angle now.

Google just released the new update for Youtube app in Android Market.
After I updated the app on my Nook Color, running on CM 7 RC, I found that Youtube app failed to load any clip at all.
Does anyone have this problem? I also have Nexus 1 which is updated as well but doesn't have such a problem.
Any ideas? Is it possible to downgrade Youtube by uninstalling it?
** My Nexus 1 recently has a new Market app but my NC is yet not upgraded. Is it going to be a big matter for a rooted NC?

I have the same problem, it keeps loading and never actually loads the vids. So good thing i made a back up before upgrading. I cleared app data, wiped dalvik/cache and still a no go. It seems other phones are also having problems with the update. I
All these new google apps are messed up -_-

Working OK here; CM7 nightly (151).
Hmmm. I just realized that Google AD, which plays right before the clip, is loaded and played. However, the clip I touched in is having a problem: "There was a problem while playing. Touch to Retry."
In the moment the HQ button appears, unchecked it. Videos will play in low quality fine. Waiting on a fix.

Reading the rating comments for the Youtube app in the market, it appears that this problem isn't limited to the NC and is occuring on several other platforms also.
I have only been able to get 1 video to play correctly. While watching my router's status lights, I can see that the videos are downloading but all I get is the spinny arrow or the "Touch to retry" error.
I just noticed when I went to the market website that Youtube is now listed as not compatible. Adobe flash as well. Funny when you consider they are both part of the stock setup. It's pretty clear Google is blocking apps not so much based on the device but whether it is rooted or not. Question is, all rooted devices or only those with CM7 on them?

Same here I saw a new YouTube update on my G2, this morning, and when I went to update it on my nook, it wouldn't allow me to update.

Another thing I noticed with the Youtube update is the restriction of certain videos from being played on mobile devices. Luckily, I had a backup of a pre-screwy Youtube and market update sd image and things are running fine again.
It really makes me wonder what is going on behind the scenes at google to cause them do all of this.
Yeah I'm having the same problem. Reverted to a backup and it's working again. This is on the latest release candidate.

It's working fine for me. I even played a HQ vid with on problem. I will say that when I clicked on one of the front page videos it just sat and spun its wheels but when I searched for something it played without any delay.
What version of CM7 is everyone using?
I am running 7.0.3 and was having problems with the updated youtube.
7.1.0-RC1 here.
yeah, youtube 2.2.16 will not work on my nook, but works fine on my htc aria. not sure why
nook: cm7 n155 / aria: cm7 n162
Same here. Running cm7 rc1 off of sd card. Some videos ran fine others didn't. Revered to old version on backup.

Nightly 151 off sd card here. Everything working fine with updated youtube. Every vid I tried played ok.
Same problem here with YouTube 2.2.16 not playing High Quality (HQ) videos on the Nook Color running CM7. Those of you who say it's not playing anything, your YouTube app may default to HQ video. As soon as the video downloading spinning circle appears on the screen, tap the screen in landscape mode to see the toggle switch to turn HQ off for that video. The low quality video should load up after you turn off HQ.
Anyway, last night I remembered that in the early days of rooting the NC we had the same problem with HQ video in the YouTube app. I tried the fix for that old problem last night and it worked on 2.2.16. All I did was sign out of my YouTube account, force stopped the app, cleared cache and data, and rebooted the NC. After reboot open the YouTube app, accept the TOS, and it should work. When everyone had this problem earlier this year, it would sometimes come back and we'd do the routine again to make it go away. I don't know what eventually solved the problem last time (an update fixed it?), but maybe the same behind-the-scenes permanent fix will solve the problem with 2.2.16.

Tried this - some videos are playing now in HQ but not others. Strange. For example I selected one artist and two of her videos would play but two wouldn't. After rollback to 2.1.6 they all play.
When I have a situation like this where the updated version of an app works much worse than the prior (Skype, Okcupid notably), I roll back and then use Titanium to force-detach it from the Market.
Even if there wasn't a problem playing videos with the new update, I still would roll back to the previous version.
I find it irritating as hell that this new version of the Youtube player has incorporated the "do not play on mobile devices" block on some videos. I did not like this "feature" on the Youtube Ipodtouch app and never could figure out the reasoning behind it.
On the official Sony Support site, they suggested to uninstall Facebook App and to re-install it - and some suggested to clear its data and try again, all these are temporary solutions
I downgraded my Facebook by uninstalling the current version and installing an older version. The version I have chosen is version 5 (current in July 2004 is v.12) - V.5 allows me to choose which app I can play the video on and gives me the possibility of downloading it as well (through ES Download App)
It looks old, I lost the function of adding a picture into the comments (can do it on PC anyhow) otherwise I am happy with this version
Here you can get it, (you can try newer versions for the video error issue like V.6 or V.7 as well or even V.9) as I was looking for the version that allows me to download videos (you can see all other versions at the bottom of the page in the following link)

And other solution use Facebook on browser...

^ which for non-root users is also the best way to avoid frequent wake locks caused by the Facebook app.
mine doesn't give me a error message on facebook when play a video anymore,....
all i did was "clear cache", "clear data", "uninstall", reboot and installed Facebook from the Play Store
Any Facebook beta user here? Since yesterday's 15.0.0.0.2 update, video problem looks to be solved.. I am even getting lockscreen notifications just like iphone.. Can anybody plz confirm?

Seems to work for me. Thanks
After 17.1.2.A.0.314 update, the error is gone at the first few seconds of playback. The error message comes out at the end of the video playback. It means you can watch the whole video without error, only when the video ends the error message comes out.
after 3 days without a error video glitch,... that error message came back again,.... i guess that uninstall method is only a temporary fix,... (im still on 17.1.1.A.0.402)
I can confirm joining the beta program and downloading the beta via the play store has resolved video playback
Didn't reboot or clear anything, just upgraded and it's working now
The FB app is crap. Has always been and will probably always be. I use FB via browser.

I found a link somewhere I forgot, but basically just log off facebook.
Go to setting>App, then slide to the left tab for all apps, scroll down close to bottom to look for Xperia with Facebook, disable that app.
I tried on mine and it works.

This seemed to work for me but need to give it a couple of days to be sure.
Thanks guys ..
I have tried all the above mentioned solutions, they were all temporary as I said in the OP .. Downgrading the FB application also gave the the chance to be able to download any video posted over FB, so it is not just a solution for the error message it is an added bonus
I too have the video playback error. I solve it by clicking Internet setting in Wireless &network. Hope this helps.

Something that would surely fix the issue is reinstalling the stock firmware. That may be a little drastic, however I am sure it will work. I know my way with fixing software issues but mostly only on rooted devices. Good luck!
