Youtube not working in Safari
Hello, this is my first post.
Recently I have been experiencing a problem with running youtube videos in the Safari browser. It started to happen spontaneously about 1-2 weeks ago, and so far has not changed.
If I click a video to play (embedded like in faecbook or on another website or directly from the youtube page), the video tries to load but it never does. Usually, the page reloads (like if I had clicked the refresh button) a few times, then times-out. All other tabs currently opened in Safari are affected as well, just like I have clicked refresh on each tab. When I click on a tab to open it, it refreshes and I have to load each page separately.
The youtube video never loads at all, and usually i have to close the browser completely...
I thought this might have been a problem on the youtube page, but no one else is experiencing these problems...
I also tried to update Abode flash player, but this made no difference. My software on the mac are also up-to-date.
So far I havent found a solution to this problem so any help is appreciated. I think the problem is with Safari, so I was thinking to reinstall it, but so far have seen on these forums that this is not so easy to do.
Please help! 😕
