Youtube app is missing in my new Samsung UN40EH5300 TV. I have only the shortcut to connect to the web version of Youtube. How to get the real Youtube

you cant...Samsung claims due to FCC new rules that because this TV does not have the chip to support YouTube CC (closed captions) it will not have this app. Samsung has elected to leave this out. Bad move and they have done this without informing customers or resellers. Not even their authorized sellers. The link is via the browser and it will not work very well. It will crash on HD video. Any HD video on the Samsung browser will crash it.

You can use the internet browser on your tv to get to you tube and then bookmark the site. I am able to reach you tube with no problems by following those steps.

There is a menu item "My YouTube" go to that and sign in and it will give you a code you have to enter online but then it should link. Good luck

To clarify, I called Vizio because I didn't get a premium set of glasses or the two sided remote. I also don't have as many connections on the back of my TV. They told me I had apparently gotten an older model. I could return it and try again, but I don't know if it is worth the hassle. I am curious about the apps. I saw one review that said theirs didn't have YouTube but mine does, also Skype. I don't have Pandora though. I am wondering what else I am missing.

I know I'm not helping here, but I wanted to commiserate. I bought this because TONS of reviews blatantly say that this works with Netflix, etc., but it doesn't for me. Except the Video app and the old YouTube app on my iPod Touch 3rdGen. I feel like I must be missing something, but now that I see YouTube plays fine, I'm more confused than ever. Disappointing! Anyone have any ideas what we're doing wrong here? Grrr.... Thanks!

Yes, it has a mini-app to connect to YouTube. I have not actually tried it, but it has an icon just like Amazon Prime, NetFlix, Hulu, Rhapsody, etc.

I haven't tried Amazon, but suddenly my ability to get Netflix, Youtube, Facebook, etc. has disappeared. I have talked with Netflix & with my internet provider...they concluded it's the tv. I've seen the problem in online forums. They say to reset the tv back to factory settings. But I'm going to call Vizio & see if they can walk me through it.

Please make sure you have updated firmware in your samsung TV. Also update smart hub applications using the tools button on the remote. Once you have done the above steps download the Amazon App to your TV. for me Amazon app appeared after i upgraded the firmware and smarthum pair your tv with your Amazon Account. You need to have amazon prime membership to watch the amazon instant videos for free

Mine came with the YouTube app. If you haven't seen it, tap your "App" (black circle with white dots) icon. App icons are shown in alphabetical order. Slide the screen to the left and you should see it towards the bottom of your screen. If it is not there, go to Play Store and do a search for it. Hope this helps.

Netflix has a button on the remote. But both apps are accessible under the "menu" button. You need to select "apps" from the menu screen (it's next to DVR). Also, you need to ensure that your TV is somehow connected to your home network (wired or wireless). Also I recommend downloading the system update for the TV. Some apps weren't available to me until I updated the TV.

I'm not into video functions, but when I did a search for the app, it was not found. Hope this helps

Well the New YouTube App for Android is pretty bad so i didn't upgrade. My wife did and its pretty awful, its slow and it sometime crashes (the old app have none of these issues). My browser was a little to slow for my taste as well so i downloaded the Dolphin browser on Google Play and it seems to be working fine so far. I'd recommend doing the same thing.

I haven't tried to yet but it comes preloaded with the YouTube app. All you should have to do it sign in to YouTube and make sure you have a wifi connection to upload. :)
