Why cant i watch videos on youtube when using google crome?

it says my java script is off or i need a new flashplayer but when i use internet explorer it works please help|||If you keep getting "HELLO, YOU EITHER HAVE JAVASCRIPT TURNED OFF OR AN


OLD VERSION OF ADOBE'S FLASH PLAYER....GET THE LATEST FLASH PLAYER":





don't bother downloading and re-installing the latest Flash over and over and over again.


You will get absolutely nowhere doing that, because that is only adding to the problem.





There can really be only 3 possibilities:


1) something is wrong with YouTube


2) something is wrong with your cache


3) something is wrong with your Flash





1) YOUTUBE:


Your problem may fix itself within a couple hours, or by the


next day, because YouTube often "shuts down" a bunch of


their own servers every single day without warning anybody,


in order to update all kinds of stuff. During those occasions,


it's really YouTube's data transmissions of "Java" or "Flash"


that are poor -- not your reception of it. This often causes a


"time-out" or "run-time" error and can sometimes be solved


by either hitting the "F5" key, clicking the "Refresh" icon or


clicking "Back" and "Forward" on your browser.





2) CACHE:


If the following day your YouTube is still stuck and showing


you those awful "JavaScript" and "Flash Player" messages,


it's possible that your sub-directories of "temporary internet


files" and "cache" memory are full, and can't take anymore.


This typically results in videos being totally unable to buffer


and make it onto your computer screen.





"Temporary internet files" are 1000s of tiny bits of websites


permanently put on your computer's hard-drive. They'll stay


there forever and ever, gradually plugging up your computer


much like hair slowly clogs a sink drain, until you get rid of


them once and for all (or at least everytime things go awry).





Because your computer now has such little space in which


to "cache" a video, YouTube will mistakenly think that your


JavaScript is off or that your Flash player (unable to absorb


any more videos) is old -- meaning Flash 7 or older.





The solution to all that is to exit YouTube (but not your web


browser), then clear your "cache" of all its "TIFs", "cookies"


and "history". (See below.) After that, shutdown and reboot.





3) FLASH:


Nothing about watching YouTube has really changed in the


past 2 years. (Technically, you could still even use Flash 8


if you wanted to.) It looks like the newest Flash players are


causing many YouTubers a whole lot of grief, especially all


8 variations of version 10.





It's absolutely nuts that there's 10.0.525, 10.1.218, 10.2.26,


10.2.54, 10.12.10, 10.12.36, 10.15.3 and 10.22.87. Usually


most updates are good for only 1 thing:...software conflicts.


I have never strayed away from 9.47, and there are a bunch


of "flashers" who still live by 9.45. Think of those 2 Flashes


like Windows XP compared to Vista. Please have a look at


the "Asker's" response to this other "Best Answer" of mine:

Note 1: if you've got Google Web Accelerator or something


similar to it...dump it, burn it, trash it, disable it, uninstall it,


-- do everything you can to get rid of it. GWA conflicts with


YouTube. Clicking "Don't Accelerate This Website" will not


help you whatsoever. Also, most "Messenger" applications


have a way of mucking up YouTube.





Note 2: longer videos may require "Flash" and "Shockwave"


in order to play properly.





Note 3: a very odd fix that once worked for me was altering


the URL from "www.youtube.com" to simply "youtube.com"


(or you could even try "ca.youtube.com").





Note 4: there's always the strange possibility that you may


have gone through the whole process of downloading Flash,


BUT DID YOU ACTUALLY INSTALL IT afterwards?





I hope that my info and long answer are quite helpful to you.





Google Chrome


鈫?Tools (wrench) 鈫?Clear browsing data...


[x] Clear browsing history


[x] Clear download history


[x] Empty the cache


[x] Delete cookies


Clear data from this period: 鈫?Everything


鈫?Clear Browsing Data|||Each web browser you have needs its own separate plugins. Open up google chrome, go to google.com, and type in "download flashplayer". It'll be either the first or second link. Once its installed, you'll be able to watch youtube videos.|||You need to install the Ad-Ons. For Firefox goto Tools then Add-ons Then Get Add-ons and search for flash. Once you install it you will be able to view videos.








Best of luck
