Sounds like you either don't have wap enabled on your account (my problem last yearon ATT) or your TCP settings are wrong? Did it work before or is it a new phone?

Try changing Browser configurations, Browser Identification should say blackberry.
Make sure your going to the mobile version, Make sure WAP is enabled.

I dont think that matters. I'm pretty sure browser identification is meant for analytic purposes. For example, if you put it as blackberry, when you visit a site and the admin checks their analytics, it will show that a bb visited the site.
Are you accessing YouTube via the web browser or one of the YouTube apps out there?
I would the web browser to be hopeless (And frankely slow) at playing videos.
I used a app called Player For YouTube - works a treat and is free of BlackBerry App World. I found only some videos don't play, and that is due to YouTube itself and no the BB handset 99% of the time.
you should find a thread with instructions for fixing the settings on your phone to make youtube work. I had the same problem and it fixed it.
good luck
Same problem as OP. Just tried Youtube Optimization thinking "Alleluia! I found the solution!" But nope...Still no luck...I kinda gave up on this issue a while ago...hoping to find a fix one day though...

FINALLY SOLVED !!! And it was the stupidest thing ever!!!
Called Fido (my service provider) and spent an hour and a half with their ignorant technical support department only to hear "sorry sir it seems like a problem with the actual YouTube website", there is nothing that can be done about it...
Being the hard headed person that I am, I decided to take it from the start and check all my setting...
Turns out my APN settings weren't right...I feel like such a ****** because I've had this problem since I got the phone last December, but hey, all is well that ends well...From today on, I'm a YouTube abuser!!! Thank you for your help shansmi!!!
