go to youtube, check to see if you have the mute button on the YT player. also check the YT vol control.
YouTube uses Flash.
Check to see if you have the latest version.
You might want to just reinstall it and see if that fixes it.
What browser do you use?
XP?
Do you get audio for MS Player videos, for example?
You gotta give us a tad more info....
Some people post silent videos on YouTube, just video, no sound. I have seen that before.
Or are you having this problem with every video on YouTube?

Candidates I support: Doug Hoffman for Congress, NY 23rd (PayPal), David Harmer for Congress, CA 10th (website for info). Please, spread the word about these important special elections on November 3, 209: New York’s 23rd congressional district and California’s 10th congressional district. |
Lose Windows Player and get something like GOM, no matter what happens.
Set your Firefox settings to clear your cache and history when you exit (History won’t affect sound but it is a good safety measure)
Firefox, Preferences, Privacy, Check “Clear history...” Press the Settings button and check everything
Reboot your computer.
Think I may have found the problem.....
Foxfire 3.5.3 (latest one) is not compatible with the Adobe Flash newest version..... (per message when I tried to update Flash)
Tried opening another browser (Opera - an older version) and it works perfectly.
I have heard that Youtube is removing sound from some uploaded files that have copyrighted content within them...such as a popular song used as background music by someone who does not have permission of the artist or recording company to do so. That may be what you are experiencing.
