Re: Can't play videos? JavaScript / Adobe Flash error message

DaveyMacnail

Hello, my name is Dave and I am from The NETHERLANDS.

I have the same problem on my computer ("An error occured, please try
again later"), when using one of my players and I already tried many
suggestions from other people.
Nothing works.

Now I tried the way, Liz has written and it did not work either.

Maybe the problem is at YouTube's site.

Hope to read some new suggestions.

Thanks and regards from Dave.
