Does anybody know why I recently had a problem embedding youtube videos to facebook? it only seems to embed the home page and not the video! It just started a couple days ago.
Has anyone figured out why in November 2011 that the video preview boxes are no longer appearing when you share a youtube video in facebook? Many seem to have figured it out, but they are not sharing that information -- saying it's a geek's secret. Can someone please help a non-computer geek figure this out? Thanks.
thanks for this (as of 11/9/11) i have not been able to post a youtube video for the last week (only the link embeds now when i hit "SHARE" (used to have no prob bringing youtube vid onto my fb wall) - this does the trick!! thank-you!!!
Ha ha ha ha... thank you very much. Oh my gosh... that is so easy... ha ha ha... I first tried to click "share" and I can't find "facebook" so what I did is I copy the url link under "link to this video". I am really pissed off when it only appears "URL link" because I really forgot how to post video on facebook. Now I know that I will just copy the "URL link" from the browser and paste it to facebook. It is so easy! Ha ha ha... thank you very much. Whew!
this is actually a better way to post - especially to "Pages" (aka Fan Pages). Seem to have more control this way, as FB can be a bit wonky at times. So thank you for this quick video.
The new facebook layout doesnt have the link to insert video url - how do we post youtube videos now?
II can just post the video url as my facebook post, it will insert the video, but then it will also post the url which is ugly, where as bbefore the url remained hidden
Every time i send or share rather - videos from Youtube or links from websites to facebook - in private message form - the video or link is not showing up in the message to my friends - just a blank message! Please help!
I was chatting with a friend and he was telling me the steps...and then he sent me this link. AND WOW! I DID IT!! ALL BY MYSELF!! (and yes, my kids are rolling their eyes..)
Are you kidding me? When did this guy make this instructional video? How about just search for you video. Then choose the video that you prefer to post. Next, open the video and below the video screen a Facebook/Share link will appear. Click the link. Then choose which page you'd like to share with. The facebook login page will pop up. Sign in then click share. Your video will post as soon as you confirm. Simple. Thank God for links.
@urias22 maybe u cud help me. i used to do that but now it doesnt let me, instead opens a new blank firefox page and has a little icon top left corner click on this and it says page not encrpyted please if you can help appreciate it
theres a glitch on some of my vids cause when i post them , the "play" thumbnail doesn't appear,only the "generic" youtube URL ,somebody said that the recently uploaded videos don't have a "play" thumb nail cause facebook need to create one ,
Wow man ive been trying to figure this out forever. Stupid facebook changing stuff up and none of the tutorials worked but yours did. Thanks man, now im going to spam up facebook with dusbtep >:)
to anyone who had had problems with this, I would suggest trying different web browsers, fire fox, chrome, and IE. Also you are not able to embed video's everywhere on facebook. Try posting it on your wall, make sure that it's not on the newsfeed page, but you would click your profile tab first.
Thx it worked. Ppl say that u should use the share, but it just adds a link, but it did work. (not the share, the share sucks) :D

to anyone who had had problems with this, I would suggest trying different web browsers, fire fox, chrome, and IE. Also you are not able to embed video's everywhere on facebook. Try posting it on your wall, make sure that it's not on the newsfeed page, but you would click your profile tab first.
