I can't access youtube in firefox. There is no error message. I'm using leaopard on a mac.When I type in youtube.com, nothing happens, the page is completely blank. youtube works in safari. other websites work fine. Works in safari, just not firefox.

I tried many of the solutions offered for not being able to access youtube but no solution so far. I have uninstalled flash and realplayer and disabled noscript and some plug-ins and still nothing. If I try to access youtube without these items, I don't even get a page saying that I need the flash plug-in, it's just blank. I have re-installed an older version of flash, 11.2. flash was an still is working fine on other sites, I have re-installed firefox. I have tried things like using html5, nothing works. I have read through these help pages and found nothing that helps so far.

Please help, I have been trying to figure this out for a week and am at my wits end. I need to be able to access youtube in firefox.

Are you blocking *.ytimg.com? That is where the content is coming from for YouTube.
