On my MacMini, no trouble on Safari, YouTube plays perfectly.

No trouble on Safari or Chrome on the iPad, again plays fine.

But on Chrome on my MacMini, if I click to a YouTube clip, the type is grey bands, and no video?

What button am I not pressing in Chrome?

Ta.

I Phone 6

Do Lcds Last Forever?

I think Youtube still needs Flash enabled on your browser. See what happens when you turn it on. In future the latest version of HTML (version 5) includes the ability to play video so as web sites gradually move to HTML5 people wont need Flash, but for now Flash may be needed but can often be turned off as a default in some browsers.
