1. Enable Plug-ins

Safari > Preferences > Security


Web Content:

Click in the box for "Enable Plug-ins".



2. Check whether you are currently in YouTube HTML 5 trial.

At the bottom left of the page uncheck the box for


"You are currently in the HTML5 trial".


3. Reset Safari.


Click Safari in the menu bar.

From the drop down select "Reset Safari".

Uncheck the boxes next to all items.

Check the box next to "Remove all website data".

Click "Reset".


4. Turn off Extensions/Plug-ins if any that may interfere with Flash working properly.

Safari > Preferences > Extensions



Best.

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 4.

1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select


 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player Advanced

and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.


2. Triple-click the line below to select it:


/Library/Internet Plug-Ins

Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select

Services ▹ Open

from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password.

3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:

Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.

4. If you get a " missing plug-in" error, select


Safari Preferences... Security

from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.


5. Select

Safari Preferences... Extensions

from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

6. In the Safari preference window, select

Privacy Remove All Website Data

Close the window. Then select

 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player Advanced

and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
