# Referrer Error

 * I am getting the error below when searching for videos.
 * (403) There is a per-IP or per-Referer restriction configured on your API key
   and the request does not match these restrictions. Please use the Google Developers
   Console to update your API key configuration if request from this IP or referer
   should be allowed.. Please refresh the page and try again.
 * I have authenticated and the domain plus ip are in the allowed referrers list.
 * Any ideas?
