I heard Youtube videos work fine in 3G here in Finland. But I´m using a wi-fi connection and can´t get those videos working. When I click the video link (in m.youtube.com), Real Player starts, it shows that it’s loading and then there comes text: “Unable to connect. Server timeout.”
I think wi-fi preferences might cause that. Does anybody have a solution?

Jari on 7 September 2007:

Thanks for answering, but that doesn’t work either. I tested also in 3G-network and it works there. Pretty strange that some people can use it in wi-fi and some not. Maybe I’ll have to continue browsing forums.

There is a new phone going to arrive soon….it’s Nokia N96 and later Nokia N98!

Not sure what Nokia company is upto? and why they are releasing so agressively, without any knowledge of patience.

Hey all, I had the same issue with youtube getting a server timeout on N95 8GB on O2. I found that you need to make sure the Real Player connection is different to the web connection. So on mine I’m on O2 WAP for real player and O2 Postpay WAP for my web browser. I presume that it means the phone can’t have two programs using the same connection but hey I’m no phone expert lol. Anyway it works for me, good luck to anyone who’s having trouble.

solution to “unable to connect to server” and “server timeout”

i was very frustrated with this problem too until i found a post on another website that said to change the settings in real player. and here it is as follows:

realplayer>options>settings>streaming>proxy>use proxy>NO

i don’t understand why this works but it does enjoy. also check out m.youtube.com its just for mobile phone users or mobitubia

Possible solution to “Unable to connect to server - time out” situation. Have N95 8gb UK with T-mobile and had problems connecting to Sky Sports. It turned out that my settings in Real Player had changed to my wireless network at home since I played around with the WLAN network, so I had accepted it to use the SKY wireless network at home as a default access point. Wrong decision from me I have now discovered.
Under settings I changed the access point to Web’n'walk and Sky mobile tv works very well !!

Anyways, I still have trouble using Windows Messenger and accessing my hotmail from the phone, so any help in that department would be greatly appreciated. I had three ‘Messenger’ icons in my application folder and I tried to delete them all but am only able to delete one of them. Two still there and I cannot remove them to try from the beginning.

Thanks guys.

if you have the”disconnected re-connect again”.first you will be only able to watch you tube videos via wifi unless you have full internet accesss with your service provider.make sure you change the settings in realplayer(network settings, ———————————————————————————N95 FOR LIFE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH YEA IT HAS 8 GIG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JuicyJones on 28 May 2008:

so far I have been only able to watch videos on surfthechannel.com it’s not youtube but at least you can see what streaming looks like on your n95 no matter what settings you use. I wonder also is there maybe another player application that can be used with the n95? maybe realplayer is the problem. I will see what I can find and report back later.

JuicyJones on 29 May 2008:

If the above doesn’t work an easy solution is to download mobitubia from http://www.mobitubia.com

I tried it and all the youtube videos seem to work just fine with this application. also remember when you use the “search engine” in the program it will display 13 or 14 results. You can pull up more if you push the upper right navigation key on your phone. I found that out by accident. Have fun…oh and let me know if this works for you… jj
