I can't click skip ads on YouTube videos. I click it, and it doesn't do anything. I also can't pause certain videos. On other websites, there are times where I'm unable to click boxes.
It's just really bothering me that I can't skip ads.
I can provide more examples.

It only happens on my computer, though.

Hmm. You mean it's working on your phone just not your computer? Or it works on other peoples' computers and not yours? I know that Youtube has tons of problems, so it could just be on their end.

It works just fine on my phone and 3DS.

Have you tried clearing the cache?

A bunch of times. I don't know what the problem is. YouTube isn't a big deal. I just want to fix it so I can click on anything, not certain things.

Huh that's odd, are you using a wireless mouse?

I'm using a wireless keyboard and a wired mouse.

Well I've got nothing then, if you were using a wireless mouse j would have made sure that the USB thing is plugged in properly. Otherwise the last thing if can suggest is turning it off and than back on which I bet you've already done.

I think it's on YouTubes end because I just tried playing a video on my Mac and it would not let me pause it.

Clear your cookies and update flash if you haven't. If that doesn't work try another browser.

My thoughts exactly.
Emphasis on the part about installing Ad-Block as well. That should kill the ads altogether, so that button won't be necessary.
