Whenever I try to maximize a Youtube video, nothing happens. I click on the "maximize button" but there is no response.

I can watch Youtube videos in the "minimized" and "theatrical" view just fine. I can watch videos on other websites on fullscreen as well. When I switch to another web browser, like Chrome, I can watch Youtube videos in maximized view just fine.

Hi Chuckk. 1. Go to Youtube. 2. Once the site has loaded, click on the small lock icon in the location bar. 3. Set the "Enter Fullscreen: " permission to "Always Ask" or "Allow".

(Don't forget to re-enable things like hardware acceleration if my solution worked.)

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

Try to "disable the hardware acceleration" in the Flash Player.

Flash "Display settings" window:

None of that seemed to help. I disabled Hardware Acceleration for both Firefox and Flash Player. I still have the same issue.

Jeez O' Pete! That did it! Thank you so much. I have no idea how that got switched off. I didn't even know it was there, and I've been using Firefox for over a year now with no problems.

Thank you again for solving this very annoying issue for me!
