Are you trying to embed a Youtube video into an AB page or are you trying to save a Youtube (or other) video to your computer?
If it's the former, and you're using a Windows PC or laptop, you need to IGNORE the 'Share' button on a Youtube page. Instead, you should copy the URL that appears in your browser's address bar. (Click on the address to highlight it. Right-click and select 'Copy'). Then come to an AB post, right-click where you want the video to appear (preferably allocating it a separate line to anything else in your post) and select 'Paste'.
Note that the foregoing won't work on mobile devices (such as iPads and phones) because the address will take a different form. (You need to be using one that includes 'youtube.com', rather than one with 'youtu.be' in it).
If you're trying to save a video to your computer, there are three ways of doing it. One uses a browser extension (so we'd need to know which browser you use), one uses a specific program that you install onto your computer and one inlvolves making the use of online copying services. Further info available on request (if that's what you're trying to do).

Android Tablet? Hmm. Some downloads need flash player installed and this may not be already installed on such a tablet. Firstly does Ytoob tell you why it is not loading? Secondly is the bleedin video being sourced at a reliable and safe site? Loads of dodgy crap out there Theland you know. If you need a pointer to an Android compatible Flash player I can help.
Now I'm more confused than ever!
As I wrote in my first post above, you can't embed a Youtube video into an AB page from a mobile device (such as an Adroid tablet). That's because AB's server looks for 'youtube.com' in the address of a video in order to embed it into a page, whereas Youtube serves up videos to mobile devices with addresses including 'youtu.be'.
The information in my second post relates to storing a copy of a video locally on your tablet, so that it will always be available for you to play (even where you've got no internet access).

Theland if you are trying to post a YToob video onto the bank, you need to send the URL to the AB answer box. Now the url is that bit of code in the grey box at the top that starts htps. You need to be able to firstly copy that url and then paste it into our box (sorry ladies) . That means that you need both the ab window(tab) open and the YToob window (tab) open at the same time. Once you have copied the url from the toob you open the ab tab and paste the copied url into the answer box. Now you need to know how to copy the url from the toob on a bleedin android tablet, and how to paste it ........off to close my cloches up and to charge my glass.
Okeedokee Thel, now you have to do some kin work. I think that if you touch once in the little box at the top of Chrome (where you type URLs or search terms). This will display and highlight the entire URL. Then, touch and hold to bring up options to cut, copy, or share. Choose the copy or copy address option then paste it here.
P.S. If it is one of those crap videos I will be round to strangle you. (^_*)
