  • Open the page in incognito

  • Log out of your Google account in the browser (or check to see if the account is "restricted")

  • Change to a different browser

  • Change device

  • Change the source of the Internet connection



If the issue persists, please check out the information below ⬇️

Potential blockers:

👇 1. Your YouTube account is not signed in, or 'Restricted mode' is enabled on your YouTube account.


Since the source of the livestream is YouTube, not being signed into YouTube account or having Restricted mode enabled can impact livestream availability.

Please note that it is a common complaint online, it's not that MyEdSpace videos or Livestreams have adult content, but sometimes it can block livestreams because Google hasn't had time to analyse the livestream's content, and so might flag the video as having unknown, potentially adult, content.

Please open https://www.youtube.com/check_content_restrictions and review what the YouTube tool reports about where the restriction comes from.

👇 2. The other reason for the issue might be caused by the age restriction setup for the student, or using a school device or internet connection.


In this case, changing the device or the source of the internet connection will resolve the issue.

Beyond that, it could be any ad blockers or VPN's enabled, which could impact an individual user's content visibility on the browser.

Please check whether any of the possible reasons is related to your device/browser. and try to change them or switch them off.
