New iPad help, YouTube vids won't play.

Just curious, I was just playing around. Found that a lot of YouTube videos uploaded on VEVO won't play. I see nothing in settings that seems wrong.

I think it's content blocking for whatever corporate reason. Am I right?

and vevo videos as well as youtube work fine.

VEVO has an app you could download but I suppose that won't help if you're on a corporate network that's blocking video sites.

Not a corporate network, I'm at home, connecting through my AT&T dsl line, or directly through an AT&T wireless acct.

Thanks,I'll check out the app.

I've found when things aren't working the way they should it sometimes helps to reboot the iPad. Hold the power button then slide to power off and then hold the power button to turn it back on.
