flash and youtube = crash
I saw a thread here awhile ago about constant crashing when accessing videos on youtube do to a Flash bug.
I browse on a Mac. And, I can hardly watch any flash based presentations because of this bug.
Anyone have a link to that thread or have a solution?
Thanks a bunch.

You can backrev Flash and then ignore its subsequent pleas to update. For me, the symptom was unintelligible chopped-up audio. Rolling back to version 10 solved the issue. You can get it here.
 All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to. My Stuff

You know when they have this sort of bother do they act on it if someone points it out?

Thanks guys. I have flash Plug-in version 10.3.183.23 is installed on a Mac (OS X 10.5.8 ). This is the version recommended by Adobe to avoid the security breach. If I go back, I would be open to attack or whatever the term is. My symptoms are that Safari crashes when I try to watch a youtube video. After the crash it takes a long time for Safari to get working again. PITA Thanks

Just wondering if this couldn't be a combination of factor, instead of just Flash.
As I had mentioned in that other thread, I usually avoid updating Flash most of the time (unless there's a security issue), so I'm still on 11.1.102.62 (same as I mentioned in that thread). My wife's running the latest version. Both of us are running Safari (latest version) - on OS X 10.6.8 though. No issues whatsoever.
I know this doesn't really help, but, anyway...
Good luck fixing the issue.

Rain, I think the change in flash version numbers occurs right at the 10.6 number. So, I'm just under it at 10.5.8.
I still don't know what catlike animal my OS is either:)
I just use it and it works.
till now.

I was accused of Flashing on Youtube once, but there was no clear evidence that it was me.

Leopard. ;) That was good one. Still on Snow Leopard here even over a year after Lion came out and still no plan to upgrade to Lion or the more recent Mountain Lion. I guess I'll upgrade the OS when I buy the next comp. Plus, that'll leave the good folks at Cakewalk some time to work out the installers and fix the issues w/ their soft synths on Lion. ;)

Thanks Rain. Where does it say I'm using Leopard?
I looked in the 'apple/about this mac/software' and all I see is, Mac OS X 10.5.8 (9L31a).
Thanks Rain.

I don't think you'll see it on the actual computer - at least, I never saw it anywhere - except on the install disc.
It's usually one big cat for each new major upgrade.
10.0 - Cheetah
.1 Puma
.2 Jaguar
.3 Panther
.4 Tiger
.5 Leopard
.6 Snow Leopard
.7 Lion
.8 Mountain Lion.
Yeah, I love big cats. :P

Can you try the HTML5 versions? I know in the settings you can select to view YouTube videos in HTML5 browsers. I have noticed they run better than flash does in Chrome.
