You have to download whatever thing it is you want to see, and ot takes aaaaages!

I'm using it on my iPad - or rather i'm not using it at all because I justwant to open the app, find the programme and then click play. I don't want to download anything, I just want to watch something. Now. When I click on it.

Like I do on iPlayer.

It's rubbish and I don't bother with it.

I think it must depend on the programme, as Graphista suggested ^^

"Oh wow thanks - so I shouldn’t really ever download stuff to my iPad and instead I should just watch it via streaming instead - thanks for flagging that." No worries - I learned the hard way clogging up my first laptop when films etc were first available for download. A "techy" friend put me right bless her.

I'm always asking her advice now as some apps are horrendous for being data heavy.

"which have all now gone." They haven't they'll still be on the hard drive, should be easy enough to find using Siri or the tablet's own (not the browser) search function - sorry not very familiar with iPad
