Youtube failing on Xbox 360

R3b3l Command3r · Oct 19, 2019

Yes, I know the console is massively obsolete, but I've kept it as a streaming device for my other TV. For the last few days, Youtube has ceased to function. 9x outta 10 it simply fails to load, with an error screen that says "Youtube is unavailable right
now. Please try again later." The 1 time is does load, it won't play videos at all ("Something went wrong Please send us a report to help us fix it") and all of the tabs on the left side are nothing more than the universal square symbols for "this emote is
unsupported by your device." I have uninstalled/cleared cache/rebooted/reinstalled/rebooted numerous times but this fails to resolve the issue. Internet is connected (Cat6 ethernet) and working fine (Hulu and Netflix function well.)

Has Youtube finally outgrown my tired old 360?

They probably have stopped updates for the 360 app i too still have a 360 but most off the games i had were available under compatabilty list so i have my games on the new console.

Hey there MaelDiarra11!

Have you tried a power cycle since your YouTube trouble started? Hold down the power button on the Xbox One for 8-10 seconds, once it's off power it back on and try giving the app another go. If you're still having trouble after that try uninstalling the
app, power cycle once more, and then re-download it.

Let us know how it goes
