computer help wanted

When trying to view utube I get the following error message

Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.

Java is enabled and used ok by other programs and I have downloaded/installed new flash player. My 4OD tv player also refuses to work. Any ideas please am stumped.

You'll get no sense out of me either Roger

Laurie will be along later, I am sure she'll have some sensible suggestions if no one else gets in first

Try this:-

Flash install problems - how to fix Flash player installation problems such as the Youtube error - Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player.

Or:-

Download Flash Player 9 (Complete Standalone Installer) - free download of the full Flash Player installer

Or try Firefox.

Wildman, I'm supposed to be working but a client failed to arrive

and I've just seen this...have you checked your Firewall and ensured that both the new Flash Player and the latest Javascript app are enabled / approved to access life beyond the Firewall

The Firewall can cause a lot of these problems - check it carefully, make sure the correct apps are approved on its list, and then reboot the system. Its worth a try. I'll be back online much later this evening to help if I can, if that didn't work.

Hi Laurie, not just Young and beautiful, but brains as well. Thanks don't know why firewall settings got screwed as working one day but not the next, now all fine many thanks.

Flattery works wonders Wildman

Oh excellent. I love it when a plan comes together (oh dear such taglines rather show up ones age methinks......

)

Now if we can just solve Linda's vanished wireless setup I can relax for a while

Laurie.
