Comment 1 Andre Klapper 2014-07-05 11:18:55 PDT Thanks for taking the time to report this! Does the problem still happen if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? (Safe Mode disables extensions and themes, hardware acceleration and some JavaScript stuff in order to exclude some possible reasons for problems. It does not disable plugins which are add-ons.) See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode And does this also happen with a new and empty profile? See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Basic%20Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile and http://support.mozilla.org/kb/Managing%20profiles Comment 2 swara_ms 2014-07-05 14:00:15 PDT Hi Andre, Yes I tried opening in safe mode, still i get the crash error. "An error oc
By Martin Brinkmann on June 13, 2014 in Firefox - Last Update:June 13, 2014 31Whenever I tried to play a YouTube video in the most recent version of Firefox lately, it would only display the advertisement before the video for a couple of seconds before a dreaded http://www.ghacks.net/2014/06/13/fix-error-occurred-please-try-later-youtube-error/ "an error occurred, please try again later" message prevented me from watching that video or any other video for that matter on the site.The error message was thrown on YouTube but also on third-party sites with embedded YouTube videos.A quick analysis of the issue revealed that the error message was only displayed in Firefox, and there only if Adobe Flash Player was used to stream the videos to the browser.The HTML5 player error occurred worked without any issues. How to find that out? You can right-click on the video to get information which technology is being used to play it.If you see "About Adobe Flash Player" in the context menu, Flash is being used while "About the HTML5 player" indicates that HTML5 video is used instead.What I did notice as well is that no video resolutions were displayed as available when I used the Flash Player as an error occurred all were grayed out. If you monitor this closely, you will notice that the player tries each one of them and marks it as gray (unavailable).So, switching to the HTML5 player on YouTube resolves the issue. The problem here is that it does not support all videos on the site yet. While you can play many in HTML5 format, some revert to Flash Player if installed on the system.Here is a workaround for thatFirst thing we are going to do is enable the HTML5 player on YouTube. Visit https://www.youtube.com/html5 and click on the request the HTML5 player button.This basically configures YouTube to use the HTML5 player whenever possible.The second step is to disable Adobe Flash so that YouTube cannot use it instead. This ensures that HTML5 is used whenever possible. If you don't disable Flash, it may sometimes be used instead.Open about:addons by loading it in Firefox's address bar. Switch to plugins and change Shockwave Flash to Never Activate from the menu on the right of its entry.You need to block the plugin as you will get the "activate Adobe Flash" prompt instead if you set it to ask to activate.Other things you can tryWhile switching to HTML5 and disabling Flash worked for me, there are other things that you can try to fix the issue.Reload
