First, check if the YouTube app is working properly. If it is not, the problem might be due to an outdated app. Make sure the app is up to date and installed on your phone. Another cause of YouTube problems is an extension on your browser. Remove the extension and try the app again.<\/p>\n<p>Another problem that can cause YouTube video streaming problems is a spotty connection. There are many reasons for a spotty connection, but a simple device restart may be the first step. This method should work for any video-streaming problems you&#8217;re experiencing on your Android phone or tablet. Once you&#8217;ve restarted your device, open YouTube and play a video to see if it has fixed the problem.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_causes_of_YouTube_outages\"><\/span>Common causes of YouTube outages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first thing you should do if you&#8217;re experiencing outages on YouTube is to restart your system.

Windows has built in Proxy settings to protect users from online threats, but sometimes these settings can interfere with a website&#8217;s ability to connect to your computer. To disable these settings, follow these steps:<\/p>\n<p>In order to disable proxy support, go to the Chrome settings menu and select &#8220;Clear browsing data.&#8221; If the problem persists, delete your browser&#8217;s cached data. If this doesn&#8217;t work, try clearing your cached data and cookies. Next, you can update your browser. Click on the Help menu and choose &#8220;About Google Chrome&#8221; from there. If this still does not work, try installing the latest version of the browser.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why YouTube Isn&#8217;t Working Today If you&#8217;re experiencing an outage and want to know why YouTube isn&#8217;t working today, you&#8217;ve come to the right place.
