Hi tonyhil,

To watch YouTube videos you need to have Adobe Flashplayer installed for your web browser. Here is the link to install it.
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

If you already had it installed and have just lost the ability to view YouTube videos then it is usually wise to uninstall flashplayer before re-installation, to fix the problem. Sometimes if you re-install before uninstalling flashplayer it doesn't fix the problem. I think it is likely the installer won't over write existing flashplayer files, so if there is a corrupt file it leaves it.

The following link goes to a page on the Adobe Website that gives details of uninstalling and a link to their uninstaller.

I hope this has been helpful.
Kind Regards

You need to download flash player. After installing, restart your browser. It's available for free here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/

Try installing a newer version of your browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, chrome, etc) And also install the newest version of Flash Player for your browser.

I want to up load a video but it wont let me log in

You don't need to log in to load videos on Youtube. Maybe try to click on the compatibility view icon on the url line, the icon that looks like ripped paper in the middle, and controls if your browser is using compatibility view or not.
Otherwise, maybe try to uninstall and reinstall the internet explorer browser, or update to ie9 or ie8 if it hasn't been done so in the past. Try another browser like Chrome or Apple's Safari, to test to see if you can view videos on Youtube that way.
Remember, downloading videos is not an option on Youtube, technically, because it's a 'streaming' site not a download site.

OK?

I cant watch youtube videos on my lg pop gd510??? i would like to know how???

Thanks for visiting FixYa!

First, you need to know that your phone's operating system is known as 'Flash UI' which has no DivX/XviD video support. However, to determine if you can view YouTube videos on your phone with YouTube's web based mobile version, visit m.youtube.com in your phone's browser.

If you cannot view YouTube videos there, go to: m.opera.com (on your phone) and download the Opera browser to your phone. You may be able to watch YouTube videos using Opera.

I have a basic virgin mobile i can do email face book etc but cant view utube through face book. Can it be done? Any help please contact. [email protected] thanks

If you are viewing through your browser then you probably will not be able to view youtube videos because most basic phones do not support flash, youtubes video format. If there is a video you want to watch you can try going to m.youtube.com which is the mobile site and may work.

Youtube wont play..

If you have an iphone 3G there is a direct connection to an iphone friendly version of youtube but you can of course still access youtube from safari.. however be aware that if you do not have a wi-fi connection or at least a good 3G connection you may not be able to view any youtube video due to lack of bandwidth
