Why is one video not playing?
If only one video gives you trouble, just try that one video again later. It usually clears itself up by the next time you visit.
If you want to try fixing the issue immediately, here are some steps you can take:
1. Refresh your screen and try playing the video again.
2. Clear your browser's cache and cookies. These links may help you:
-Go here to clear Flash cookies (click "Delete All Sites," shut and re-open the browser then try playing videos again.)
-How to clear your browser's cookies.
3. Try a different browser. We recommend that you download and use Google Chrome. Get it here.
4. Try watching on a different computer/phone/tablet.
5. If none of those work, please just try the video again in a few hours.
I've received some emails from you. How often do you send me stuff? Will I be "spammed"?
Right after you first sign up, you'll get a welcome note and then another email every few days after that to tell you about some of the cool stuff available here.
After your first month, you'll usually get a couple emails each week. We always send an email when we release new content and try to bundle other bits of information in those to keep your inbox from being overloaded.
Remember that you can simply unsubscribe using the link from any of our emails.
How does the "Remember me" feature work when logging in?
Checking the box next to "Remember me" when you log in will automatically log you in each time you visit any page on TopSpeedTennis.com for the next 1 year. This makes it easier for you to access our site and content.
Of course, if you are visiting us from a computer that other people have access to, automatically logging in may not be the best option.
When you check the box and log in, our site will set a cookie to remember you when you return to the site from the same computer. To disable the cookie, just click "Logout." You'll need to re-enter your email address and password when you return to TopSpeedTennis.com.
Why doesn't the "Remember me" function work when I log in?
Your browser is probably set not to accept cookies, which are required for this feature to work. You'll need to change your browser's settings. This page my help.
It’s also possible you last logged in on a different computer or in a different browser and chose "remember me." That set the cookies on that particular computer or browser, which won't carry over to a different browser or computer.
Why am I not getting all the emails you send?
There are generally 3 possible reasons this could be happening:
- Some of them are going into your spam/junk mail box. Please check that.
- Your email service provider is blocking the emails before they even get to you.
- You are using Gmail, and our emails are showing up in the Promotions tab. To move our emails to your Primary tab, use the simple steps below.
To make sure our emails show up in your Primary tab in Gmail, simply do this:
- Drag one of our emails from the Promotions tab to the Primary tab and then click "Yes" in the yellow box that shows up afterwards.
- Right-click on one of our emails in the Promotions tab, then choose "Move to tab" and choose Primary then click "Yes" in the yellow box that shows up afterwards.
Videos are stuttering or starting and stopping. What should I do?
- First, you may notice a dramatic performance improvement by quitting unused programs, closing extra browser windows or tabs, and turning off any background applications that could be using up bandwidth.
- Refresh your screen and try playing the video again.
- If the video is HD (indicated with a white "HD" icon in the play bar area), your computer and internet connection may not be able to handle the video smoothly. You can turn off HD by clicking the "HD" icon and then choosing one of the lower resolution options (like 360p) instead of "auto".
- Allow the entire video (or most of it) to load before you play it. You can do this by clicking the "Play Video" button in Step 3, waiting until you see it appear and start to play in the screen area, and then pressing the pause button. It will keep loading while it is paused. You know it is fully loaded when the timeline at the bottom of the video turns gray all the way across. "Choppiness" usually happens when the video plays faster than your computer and internet can get it from our server.
- Contact your internet provider and tell them what is happening. It is possible they are not routing you to our videos in a proper manner.
Note that if you turn off auto HD from one video, none of the other videos will play in auto HD mode until you click to turn it back on on one of the videos.

I can't hear the audio or it's way too loud! What's going on?
Some videos are recorded with slightly different volume levels but don't cause significant issues for most members.
Depending on your computer, operating system, speakers, browser, etc. you might experience larger variances.
When adjusting the volume, remember there are often three places to look: your computer's internal settings (usually an icon can be clicked in the bottom-right of your screen), the volume control on each video (see below), and your speakers.
Below, you can see where the volume control is on each video.



What do I do if the videos aren't loading and/or I'm getting an error?
- Be sure you have done all operating system and browser updates.
- Reload the page and try again.
- If you are using an Android tablet or phone, you may need to click the full screen button on the video after loading it.
- Clear your browser's cache and cookies. These links may help you: clear cache | clear cookies

How can I use Chromecast to watch your videos on my TV?
Apple / iOS
If you are using an iOS device, you will need to install a browser app that supports Google Cast / Chromecast.
I tested this one, and it worked; though, you should use it at your own risk:
Video & TV Cast for Chromecast: Best Browser to cast and stream webvideos and local videos on TV & Displays
Android
If you're using an Android device, you can probably get it to work. Since the exact instructions may differ by device, I'll just post what we've figured out for a Samsung Note 3 and Note 5. However, the process for other devices is likely similar.
- Ensure your Google Cast / Chromecast app on your tablet/phone is connected to the Chromecast device on your TV or monitor.
- Open the page on Samsung Note 3 or Note 5,
- Click play button on a video (which plays in full screen mode),
- Tap the screen while it's playing,
- Click the Chromecast symbol in the upper-left of the screen.

Why didn't I earn a badge after completing a level?
There are a few reasons why this might happen:
- You have already completed that level. This could happen if we add new video lessons to a level that you've already completed. After we add those, it may look like you still need to complete them to finish the level. But you will have already earned your badge at that point. You can only earn a badge once.
- You forgot to mark one of the lessons in the level complete. Go back into each lesson in that level and ensure you've clicked the Mark Complete button.
- The level has a "More Coming Soon" lesson in it. We use those to prevent you from completing a level because we're planning to add videos to it in the future.
If none of these apply and you believe you've earned a badge you haven't received, contact support@topspeedtennis.com so we can help you investigate.
Why can't I mark this level complete?
There are a couple of reasons why this might happen:
- You forgot to mark one of the lessons in the level complete. Go back into each lesson in that level and ensure you've clicked the Mark Complete button.
- The level has a "More Coming Soon" lesson in it. We use those to prevent you from completing a level because we're planning to add videos to it in the future.
If none of these apply, contact support@topspeedtennis.com so we can help you investigate.
Why didn't I get points for the video I just watched?
There are a couple of things that may have happened here:
- You've already watched that video. Our system tracks which videos you've seen and only awards points to you once per video.
- You didn't watch enough of the video to earn the points. You must watch over 70% of it.
- Sometimes it takes a minute or two for the points notification to show up on your screen. Give it a bit of time and see if it pops up for you.
If none of these apply and you believe you've earned points you haven't received, contact support@topspeedtennis.com so we can help you investigate.

Many people already have them, and it's just real easy for us to incorporate it into our website rather than building something new that probably won't be as good anyway.
So, please just take a couple of minutes and sign up for your Gravatar here.
