Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I have mac OS 10.6.8. Recently, youtube videos won't play. screen is black. i have loaded and unloaded and loaded flashplayer ad nauseum. if the problem is solved elsewhere (not on youtube), youtube remains unhappy with this exception: SOME videos MAY load but MOST DO NOT.
Fix needed, please!
And i have done the cache and the cookie solution. we are on round 3 now. i suspect a bug. ?
