It's not my computer/speakers....I have sound! The YouTube videos do play...I just can't here them on Face Book nor YouTube! What's up with that? Using Vista and Firefox.

that would affect all sound, in this situation she has sound on other sites just not on any video sites. That was why I wanted to check on other video sites. try clearing the cache on your browser that can sometimes cause problems like this, if you do not know how to then let me know which browser you use and I can tell you, do you use Internet Explorer or firefox etc? So do you hear music on music sites? http://www.deezer.com/en/index.php try going there and just click on any of the artists/songs and see if you hear the music.

Rosemary, I don't remember if I told you, but my great uncle and his wife built a Sears home. It was a tiny 3 br cottage, with the tiniest bedrooms you ever saw. The largest BR could hardly hold a full sized bed and small dresser, and the closet was so small, it was unbelievable! I have no idea how they put wardrobes in those rooms. It must have been the $500 model! LOL Anyway, I don't remember when they built it, but it was when my mother was young, and she is 89. It's on an island, and they had to bring the pieces down by barge to what was my grandfather's landing and then haul them by mule through the woods to the home site. It had a wraparound porch, that went across the front, and around the right side. I don't know if that was the design, or if they added it. It also had a small back porch. It's still there, but the porch was torn off last time I saw it. My family sold it several years ago, and I hear that it's been remodeled. The feature I best remember was the pushbutton light switches. Later on, my BIL rewired it and changed out all the switches, and he threw the old ones away. I wish he had saved them. I would have loved to have them in my house! My grandmother inherited the house, and she lived in it for many years. We went to stay with her every summer, and loved that little cottage. It has been through several major hurricanes, including Hugo and Gracie, and has stood firm. It really is a remarkable piece of workmanship. I'll never forget sitting out on that front porch with the sea breeze blowing through my hair as a chik I did manage to salvage a wall lamp from the back hall. I have it packed away, and one day I'll put it somewhere special. It would be nice if you could tell me what model it was. The BR''s were all on the right side as you went in the front door, and the LR and DR were much larger than the BR's. The kitchen was long and narrow, and the bathroom and back BR were off a tiny hall off the DR.

Would you explain what you meant by this comment? Did she do something wrong? ”I'd never let her within a mile of any horse of mine.” I realize nobody can do everything, but someone should have pointed out that a horse's mouth is just about as sensitive as yours and the way she hauls on it like it's a runaway truck just makes me wince in sympathy. The most overworked old cart horse would feel that. (Also, wrapping reins around your wrists endangers you, if you should fall.) There are a lot of silly comments on an earlier video about how she pushes away one of the puppies that tries to climb on her lap when she's cleaning something or paring something, but clearly she doesn't mistreat the dogs because they still want to be all over her whenever they can, and they follow her all over. So I don't think she's cruel; I just think someone should have explained a few things before letting her borrow the horse. Maybe given her a half- hour riding lesson. The idea is lovely, though. ETA I don't mind her bouncing around like anyone who hasn't done this much; I just mind that her handling of the reins was obviously quite painful to the horse.

there are various places that have volume controls and mute controls on the actual video there is a speaker icon that you can slide up and down and mute and also in the bottom right corner of your computer is your volume control for your pc it is a little speaker icon if you click on it you can get into the settings for it and check that all sliders are all the way up and nothing is muted there are several sliders to check. Sometimes the mute gets turned on by accident.

do you have sound on other things besides just video, can you play music on it? can you hear anything? it could be only video related or it could be overall volume.
Try different things to see if you are hearing sound at all.
Radio Free New Orleans
Free Internet Radio Stations
that site has a lot of free radio stations you can just click on play and it should open up and play for you do any of those work?

do you know what media player you are using on your computer? I personally prefer VLC player which is free and plays most all formats.
VLC there you can find the vlc installer for windows.

edit to fix link

Try installing vlc it is quick and easy it doesn't hurt to have more than one and if it doesn't help just go to control panel and remove it if you want.
Some videos are in different formats and utilize different codecs you have to have a player that can handle all formats, not all do, that is why vlc is so popular and used by thousands of people over other players, it can handle pretty much anything you throw at it. And it's very safe and reputable.

Good job I know it is confusing when they have a separate speaker control besides the main one on the pc. That's why I always mention that first. That was an easy one.
