Youtube videos stop suddenly

My youtube videos buffering/loading is way ahead of what I'm watching. Ive got no problems with internet speed, its fine. And I had no problems before. Recently, this happens, so Im watching my video, no problem, buffering is way ahead as usual, but then, the video suddenly stops. Then that loading circle thing appears and I can no longer play the video. Even if I refresh, the same thing happens all over again. It normally suddenly stops 30 sec into the video even if the video is fully loaded already... HELP PLEASE!

SOURCE: I have a mac air and I am having volume problem.

The problem is that the headphone jack for you Macbook Air is a copy Analog (standard headphones) and Optical (toslink) jack. The jack has a small microswitch that detects when the cable inserted into the jack is a metal analog connector or a fiber optic toslink cable. The reason your seeing the "NOT ALLOWED" sign (circle with a slash through it) is because you cannot not adjust the volume on the sound when the output is in DIGITAL MODE. To verify this, drop down the jack cover on the side of your macbook air and place your index directly in-front of the headphone jack about 1/2" away from it. Is you finger glowing red? That's because the fiber optic LED is turned on and Mac OS X thinks that there is a toslink cable inserted into the jack.
This is a known hardware problem with that type of combo-jack and affects a lot of other Macbooks, as well.
If your Macbook Air is still covered by Apple Care, take it into an Apple store and have them replace the jack. I know this is a pain, but it is the correct answer.
If your Macbook Air is NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, you can attempt to fix this yourself, but be warned, you could break stuff!
Here is a thread at the Apple support forums discussing this issue: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3255575
The above link is good background reading and will help you understand the issue further. The short answer is that many people have inserted a toothpick (other similarly sized NON METAL object) into the headphone jack, wiggled around until the microswitch is clicked off, then normal audio resumes. My 2009 Macbook Pro 17" has the same issue, but I have found that I can take a regular pair of headphones, insert the jack, wiggle it, remove it, reinsert, remove it....and repeat this process until the switch gets toggled. It's annoying, but I have to do this until I get home and can send it back to Apple for warranty work.

U tube videos keep stopping

If it is pausing and then playing again after a few moments, this is just a process called 'buffering'. It is allowing the player to download more of the video before it begins playing again. To eliminate this, pause the video at the beginning and wait for the red bar in the play track to fill all the way. This indicated that the video had completely loaded.
If the video will not play past a certain point, reload the page. Sometimes if a network connection refreshes during a video download, this issue will occur. If it happens continually, make sure you have a steady network connection.

Can anyone tell me why the videos i watch on youtube keep stopping and going and how i can fix that ?

Usually it's due to internet traffic and download speeds of your connection. Pause the video and let the entire video download before watching.

Videos have to load alot while watching

The one that you are experiencing is actually not a problem. YouTube relies on the speed of your internet connection. If you have good speed, it will load or buffer fast. The format and quality of the video that you are watching also affects how fast it will load.

For best results, try getting high-speed internet.

Hope this helps! :D

You tube always pauses, constantly why?

I must say that the video is so slow in buffering and it is the common problem if the internet connection has a minimal speed and you're playing high quality videos. I suggest you change your subscription that suits your need or lower the quality of the video just refer to its control. If you're downloading, I suggest stopped it for awhile if you want the video will play smoothly.

Video keeps on stopping after a circle has come in

Hi,
The video keeps stopping because it takes time to buffer (load) and the the sign about which you are talking is Buffering sign. This is due to a slow internet speed
Once it is fully loaded you can watch it in one go. It is normal and happens with almost all of us.
Good Luck and ahve a nice day.
Rating the solution is highly appreciated.
