  In order to view videos on your iPad, you will need to actually upload the videos to your blog – the TED videos you’ve embedded are Flash, so that’s why the iPad won’t play them.

  Thank you for your response. Is it possible to leave the VideoPress player there (because I like the way it looks on the computer) and include something to the edit page, so the video will play on iPads and iPhones too?

  VideoPress should work properly on an iPad. Can you please clarify which posts you’re having trouble with?
