I rooted my 4th NC today (for my sister) and the YouTube App is not working. It won't even open. This was a new NC running 1.0.1 and I used the autonooter process. Everything else seems to be working. Any suggestions?
 
Nevermind. I figured it out. I had to install Titanium Backup and Wipe Data for YouTube. It works now.
 
Hello fellow Charlottean.

Very common question
-Nook Color Tool > Settings > Application Manger > All tab (menu/filter all) > Youtube: wipe data

or

-Use Titaniam Backup > backup/restore > Youtube: wipe data
 
Wow, it's not often that the OP can answer his own question before Rico chimes in.. is Rico getting slow or are the new members getting faster? :eek:

nah, it is just that those answers in the technical threads take longer for rico to type out :)

I must be dense... YouTube quit working (autonooter w/1.10) and I found this tip. When I get into Nook Tools, I don't have an "Application Manger" option. I'm assuming it's the "manage applications" option. When I select that, I have no tabs or menus. I can see all the apps and YouTube is there. When I select YouTube there is no "wipe data" option. The only options I have are to uninstall (which I assume I can't), clear cache, clear defaults and force stop. So is the "clear cache" the option that you were referring to above?

And another question... At this point, I have no way to go back. The back key in button savior doesn't work. If I hit the home button I can go back to the desktop but if I reopen nook color tools, I'm back in the same place. The only way I have found to go back in Nook Color Tools is to power down and power back up. I have a task killer "advanced task killer" and Nook Color Tools is not showing as a running program, otherwise I would kill it. What is the best way to configure the NC so that I have a virtual back button at all times that works?

BTW, clearing the cache as mentioned above did not fix YouTube. So I grabbed Titanium Backup and that approach worked.

Many thanks!
Doug

The tip that I found useful was to 'make sure you log out of YouTube before you exit the app' That includes the initial log in process as the final part of the autoroot. I deleted the YouTube app and then re-autorooted and made sure I logged out of Youtube... No problems now. Hope this helps.

Sorry. I posted both options since I couldn't recall off hand which had the wipe data options. I see now the "wipe data" option is in Titanium Backup > backup/restore > Youtube: wipe data
On your second question if you are using Button Savior, make sure you have usb debugging mode on or the back and sub menu buttons, won't work: Nook Color Tools > All Settings > Development: check (or uncheck and recheck) usb debugging, then reboot.
