YouTube/Flash nonsense
Posted: 2008-06-11 06:33pm
Yeah, so i go to YouTube to try and find some vidoes and it tells me that it cant play them because, either my Java scirpt is off or i dont havethe required Adobe (spell that right?) Flash player. Now, i just spent the last hour or so trying to GET the Flash player, in vain.
At first i did everything i could to try and download it, but it refused to do anything. Everytime i hit the download button it just refreshes the screen, or at least thats what appears to happen. So after fucking around i read that maybe i need to "uninstall" the old Adobe Flash player...ok, fair enough. So i download the uninstaller, because apparently a seperate programe is required to get rid of it, for some reason ( ) and then i THINK i uninstalled it but it offers so little evidence or information one way or the other i honestly cant tell. I went back and tried to download the Flash player again and...nothing, same as before.
So what the fuck is going on? I'm just hoping it's the Flash thing, because i have no idea what a Java script is or how to toggle it off and on, and even then i seem to be getting nowhere with the Adobe shit. Does anyone have any idea what the fuck is going on? I'm hoping it's something simple and easily fixed but i wouldnt know, as i'm utterly computer illiterate. Any help is greatly appreciated.
