• Answer:

  This type of situation often occurs whenever YouTube HQ shuts down most of their system for stupid things such as: constantly changing their "Inbox" display back-and-forth; removing their very own blogs only to put them back again; or "upgrading" their look (usually resulting in a downgrade). It's never a good idea to experiment with things you may not know about, such as "uninstalling/reinstalling flash player", "disabling/enabling java scripts", "changing firewall settings", "removing antivirus programs", toying with your registry or installing different browsers -- because they won't help you. Your computer/YouTube was working fine before, right? The first and best option should always be to try and work with what you already have -- rather than disabling, erasing separating, uninstalling, altering, downloading, installing or changing things (which may make things worse for you). Your type of problem often corrects itself within a few hours. But if it doesn't, then it could be a situation with your "cache". (That's why your channel page may sometimes look normal, but not a regular video page.) Whenever YouTube seems stuck or displays things weird, I always empty my cache of all "temporary internet files", "cookies" and "history". Things are usually okay afterwards. If you're not quite sure how to do this, or if you want several other tips to help make YouTube run faster (without having to change anything), then please contact me; I will lead you through the whole process in plain English and very easy and understandable "baby steps".
