when i installed a new version of macromedia (i think it was maybe flash though) i had to close down the browser i was using during the installaiton process

perhaps restore default internet settings? maybe its blocking something it shouldnt be...

IE. doesn't work with firefox either.
it used to work. i don't know what is going on. it installed the new files properly because when i click to install them again the little movie plays, showing they are installed.
i'll leave it for a bit to see if it fixes itself.
thanks

Uninstall flashplayer and java from control panel. Download and install the latest versions, without any programs running in the background. If nothing works upgrade to IE 7 Beta 3 (click here to download)

Flash Player

Java

Hope this helps

still having problems....
anybody?

I'm having the exact same problems with Youtube. that message always appears...despite having a new computer.

I also have a box popping up saying that it's a 'Syntax error' and that 'SWFObject is undefined'.

Anyone else have any suggestions...I've been pretty pissed, cause I love youtube, and not being able to watch videos from there, ticks me off....

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance

i figured it out. theres some bugs with x64 bit explorer.
basically i uninstalled flash
then reinstalled with 32bit explorer.
flash still doesnt work in 64bit ie, but im more than happy to use 32bit explorer

There was a bug in firefox. They fixed it with the latest 1.5.0.6

Hey, I don't quite understand what you were talking about...so...does that mean I should uninstall flash and install 32bit explorer....how exactly do I do that...and exactly do I check what bit I have for my Internet explorer....

Much help is appreciated.

Quite simply, if you don't know already, then you have the 32 Bit version of Internet Explorer. You can't uninstall Internet Explorer either

 

[sk1001]

this is correct, your probably running 32 bit windows, in this case, i have no idea how to solve the problem. sorry!

lol simple problem complex answers...

ok go to youtube and install flash player in IE then follow the steps. after it is installed. Close the browser and open it again and go to youtube.

if u having java problems go sun site and download the runtime files.
