All I get is a black screen with message to 'try it later.' I reinstalled both java and flashplayer, I tried stating FF in safe mod and nothing helped. IE works fine and I have the latest FF version installed.

Oddly, I started FF in safe mode and all my issues have now been cleared up - temporarily, this can't be a permanent fix.

I think a lot of us have the same problem. I update Adobe when I turned my PC on, now YT won't work unless I use IE. I prefer Firefox (normally!). I've tried right clicking on the screen and changing the setting to disable hardware acceleration but it's not resolved the problem.
