  Hi,

  Vimeo videos previously running fine on iPad and iPhone WordPress are not working now.
  They are working fine on PC.

  Thanks,

  Paul

  They’re working just fine for me on an iPhone 4S and an iPad 4.

  Perhaps it was just a temporary glitch?

  Thanks for your fast reply.

  I have found that if I try to review my posts in the WP app on iphone or ipad the videos don’t run. But if I simply search via the net and check out my blog not logged in, they run fine.

  Is that normal?

  Thanks again

  Paul

  That’s probably normal. :)

  Vimeo investigates the browser being used and determines if the video can be played. They’re a bit more familiar with Mobile Safari than the WordPress app’s built-in browser.

  Thanks so much for following up. I can be reassured that all’s well with the videos.

  Cheers
