You Tube
« on: October 12, 2007, 01:39:22 PM »
I am having difficulty viewing videos on You Tube.  It comes up and tells me that I either have Javascript turned off or I need the latest version of Adobe's flash player.  I've downloaded the flash player, but it is still bringing up the error.

Anyone know how I can find where to turn the Javascript on?

Thanks in advance.

Go to Tools > Internet options > Security > Custom Level, then scroll down to the scripting section - if it's disabled, click to enable it.  :D

Thanks Colin, still doesn't seem to work though  :005:

Maybe I need to turn my laptop off and back on again?

How annoying. Have you worked your way through the Youtube help page ? It suggests uninstalling, then re-installing everything, also deleting your cache...

What security are you using ?  Maybe it's blocking Youtube - check the trusted sites section in it. If all else fails you could try downloading the Mozilla browser.

Thanks for this Colin.  I'm at work at the moment, so will have a look/try this when I get home.

Cheers
