Re: Not able to play a video? What's your error message?

damiansearles

I am also having the problems with only one of my videos(We're sorry
this video is no longer available )
All my other vids are fine and no one can view the vid either (

I have tried everything described in the help forums and as I can't
contact YT directly I have no idea what to do......
Any ideas???
