Iphone 4s is not playing videos?

I was going to watch a youtube video in the YouTube app but it didn't play. I was confused so I downloaded another YouTube app. The video did not load again. Annoyed i gave up. Later i was on snapchat and i tried to watch a video on the company owned area it didn't load. Later I went on safari to try to watch a video online and no matter how many times i clicked play it wouldn't play. How do i fix this?

  • Why isn't my iPhone playing videos? So I have an iPhone 5s. It's about a year old now, and all of the sudden it starts to crap out on me. This started yesterday, where it wasn't playing video content via Internet. It wasn't playing YouTube, Instagram, or tumblr videos. It even wasn't playing soundcloud audio. I don't know what else to do. I've tried deleting and re installing the apps, and disconnecting and reconnecting to the Internet, but none of that has worked. Any tips?
  • Why aren't YouTube videos playing on iPhone anymore? So up until a few days ago I've been able to play any YouTube video on my iPhone 4s as long as I was in "desktop version" for YouTube. I use YouTube's desktop version on my phone because a lot of times the mobile version does not support the videos I want to play. But recently, for most videos in desktop version, I keep getting the message, "sorry this video is not available on this device". Why did this suddenly start happening and what might I do to fix it?
  • Why are YouTube videos not loading or playing on my IPhone 5? This problem has been persisting for a few days now - basically, every time I attempt to play a YouTube video, whether it is through the app or the actual URL on Safari, the screen stays black and never loads on app, and the loading wheel continually spins on the video. Is there a solution to this issue?
