Trouble Viewing Videos

Trouble Viewing Videos - 11/12/19 04:44 PM

I am at a loss. It seems for the past several days all I get when trying to view a video on TFF is "This video is restricted. It must be approved for you to view it". I can view videos on other sites so what is an old low tech fisherman to do? cry

Whenever a video is posted just click the video it will normally take you to youtube.

Sounds like you may be using cellular for browsing. Make sure your WiFi is working correctly.

All is good on browsing.

What is strange, I can can open all other YouTube videos, using Google, Firefox, and Internet Explorer. It is just the videos posted on Texas Fishing Forum. And I can view these same videos on Internet Explorer and Firefox...it is just I can not open TFF videos only, on Google. All other youtube videos open fine on Goggle, it is just those posted on TFF.

Oh, and thanks to dropshot and cast for your suggestions...I just get frustrated with these contraptions at times. hammer Still getting "Video unavailable
This video is restricted. It must be approved for you to view it." realmad

Well after several days wishing I could watch TFF videos, I finally figured it out. It is always something so simple (that's why I couldn't figure it out), like reinstalling my Adobe
Flash Player. Just in case there might be another senior, senior, citizen out there pushing 80, here is a "how to" video:

Good job. I had almost the same thing on my iPhoneX. It turned out that the last update turned off my WiFi and I was using cellular data for surfing. I couldn’t watch most videos and got the same type of screen saying I wasn’t authorized. I only figured it out after AT&T sent me a nasty gram about my high data usage on my unlimited plan.

I hate AT&T.
