Posted January 15, 2016 Hello, I really hate asking for help, but since this is the only tech forum I have used and trust I didn't know where else to turn. So I didn't really change anything that i know of, but when I just went to youtube it looked very basic, as if it was only running off of html and not css, but to be honest I am not that experienced in programming languages to locate the problem. This only happens when I use firefox. Here's an image of what I see : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 15, 2016 Yup, didn't work clear cache if that doesnt work, reinstall firefox when downloading, make sure to click systems and languages and then down the 64 bit one (English US) Workstation: Intel Core i7 6700K | AMD Radeon R9 390X | 16 GB RAM Mobile Workstation: MacBook Pro 15" (2017) | Intel Core i7 7820HQ | AMD Radeon Pro 560 | 16 GB RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 15, 2016 Yup, didn't work This happens at my college whenever there is an SSL error on one of the domains hosting a resource. I'd guess your version of Firefox must be behind in expiry dates for root certificates. Either that or Google may be actively working on the site. Try updating your browser or downloading a different version of Firefox (Waterfox/Nightly/Dev Edition) or just use a different browser. clear cache if that doesnt work, reinstall firefox when downloading, make sure to click systems and languages and then down the 64 bit one (English US) Just to let you know, only the installer .exe is 64 bit, not the actual Firefox binary. Mozilla only recently compiled a real 64-bit firefox binary during December last year, and that's still in BETA as far as I know. Waterfox is the only working 64-bit variant of Firefox as far as I know.

Yea this sounds very possible, but I have done many things to this version of firefox and don't really wanna reinstall firefox. Is there a way I can fix the issue with my current version of firefox so I can use yt normally ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backup your firefox user profile folder, which can be found in %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles Uninstall Firefox, re-install, and then restore your user data. The profiles folder contains themes, history, logins, extensions, addons, but NOT plugins e.g. flash, silverlight.

Ok I will Backup and replace the folder after i have reinstalled firefox, thanks for all the help guys ! I will make sure to copy the links too.

Also isn't there a chance that this could return the issues with yt ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 15, 2016 It's an issue with Adblock Plus blocking a CSS on YouTube. Either wait for them to fix it, add an exception or use something better, like uBlock Origin. There were posts on /r/firefox about it. I own and use, sorted from newest to oldest: SteelSeries 6Gv2. Microsoft SideWinder X4. Mionix Naos 7000. Zowie EC1 Evo. Microsoft SideWinder X8.
