i installed the 3.0 update and it worked fine. but when i played youtube videos, it would kick it back to the restart screen. i reformatted the ATV and reloaded the 3.0 and it still wouldn't work right, so now i've gone back to 2.4 and it's working fine.

any ideas?

I can't get any of the content to load - favorites, most watched, top rated, etc etc... just a spinning wheel and no progress (on 3.0).
 
Well, I'll assume that you have entered your YouTube user name and password into the Apple TV. If that is the case, try logging out from and then back in to YouTube from the Apple TV.

You assumed correct. Logged out and back on to the YouTube account, still nothing. My ATV, doesn't seem to have a network problem, because I can view trailers and see Flickr accounts without any problems. BTW, I'm not having this issue on my other ATV, that has the 2.? version of software.
 
2 reboots of the ATV, seems to have fixed the problem.
YouTube seems to be working like it should.
Thanks everyone for their suggestions.
