(Views currently stand at 418,562). It is suspected that info gleaned from the page may be used in making the decision to go wider with release!

Forbes girl Report post Posted October 4, 2011 AMAZING INITIATIVE! If Sam can make a difference so can we ! I keep hitting the video but the count doesn't seem to go up; how do I clear my cache? Theresa I just cleared mine. Go to TOOLS and under that you will see CLEAR RECENT HISTORY which includes your Cache. Click on that and a sign that opens up and make sure Cache is checked. You have to clear your Cache to get the YOUTUBE video to count you again. It will take a while to clear out, especially if you have not done it before. It will be quicker next time. ~HUGS~ Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forbes girl Report post Posted October 4, 2011 OK, I cleared out my Cache, Browsing history, etc. on Internet Explorer and FireFox, which is what I use the most. The trailer video count hasn't changed on YOUTUBE since I first saw it. What gives? I couldn't get it to change. I got three thumbs up right after I wrote my comments. At least I did something right. LOL! I'm "ascottishlady" on there. BTW, I hate that word count. I went over and had to change what I wrote. ~HUGS~ Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladyfran Report post Posted October 5, 2011 I shared it with a few friends on FB and e-mailed it out to family members....cleared my cache but still hasn't changed the numbers and I watched it 5 times so far! Franmnie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sara Report post Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Okay, so I keep trying to add a comment and/or "like" the video and I get a red error message. I think I broke it... Edited October 5, 2011 by Sara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forbes girl Report post Posted October 5, 2011 Something is fishy here....the numbers 419,410 hasn't changed in hours. I know gals have been going there and they are not being counted. I am going to try it without using the link on the first Post. Maybe by using the link it doesn't count. I know I am grabbing at straws here but I'm trying to get this problem solved. Clearing out the cache hasn't worked either. ~HUGS~ Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phoenixgirl Report post Posted October 5, 2011 OMG we blew it up! Now I can't even get ON You Tube. No, the numbers haven't changed, but I think that's a cache/cookies thing. Anyway, can't get on just yet ... I think THAT sends an awesome message right there. Lisa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

heISmyGspot Report post Posted October 5, 2011 WTG GALS AND PALS! I don't know what the deal is with the counts not going up. I just viewed from a completely different computer (was at the office and am now home), but the count remains the same. I'm sure the hits are logging SOMEWHERE -- the uploader of the vid has to be able to get accurate info, so I'm not that concerned. WE know we're hitting it! I know when the counts WERE working, we increased the number by a thousand in an HOUR! So, keep pushing TEAM GERRY! We need to show the Big Wigs that Gerry's fanbase can come together and GITHIMDONE -- erm, GITRDONE! ETA: Mike just tried to log in to cast his vote, and, as Lisa indicated, he got an error message indicating that youtube was down for maintenance. (He could view the vid, he just couldn't log in to comment). Hopefully, this is part of the "issue" for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GBPhanatic Report post Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Apparently when a youtube video is hit too many times or spammed, it freezes up. This is to prevent the owner of the video from hitting their own vid to up the hits. Why this is a problem I have no idea. So I guess when everyone may have been viewing it all at once, caused it to stop or freeze. Delene By the way, there is a way to fix it but it has to be done by whoever made the video.
