I'm trying to upload a video onto YouTube. Whenever I use Firefox to do so, it freezes up. I tried uploading it using IE, and it just says "Internet Explorer cannot display web page."

Also, Firefox has trouble playing anything like YouTube, MySpace music players, pandora.com, etc. Why?

I checked my firewall, and it's turned off, so I guess it's not that...

Does anyone have any ideas?

It's in the scripts of the page. It's different with all browsers. Like for me in opera, I can't use photobucket's photo editor, it just goes blank Disgust

Hope I helped (:

Mine works pretty fine. Shifty It actually just updated into the newest version and I love it more. XD

Maybe you don't have flash? I don't know how to help you.

Have you tried visiting FireFox's website and seeing if it's got any FAQs that may answer it?

You probably just don't have the right things enabled on it...I can't really say what because I haven't been in that situation Shifty

But try Firefox's main site.

Youtube works dandy for me, and I use Firefox. Uploading videos is actually faster than on IE. Maybe it's something with your computer, that's making it slow? Try running a scan on your computer, because I know that when I let my computer get too junky, things run very slow/not at all. /:

I tried searching on Google to see if anyone else was having problems with YouTube and Firefox, but all it says is stuff like "Clear your cache." I tried it, but it didn't work.

I probably don't have the right things enabled on it, like Kevin. said.
I don't know. Sad

Thank you both for the help :]
