    Can't add or edit YouTube annotations


    I recently tried to add an annotation to a new YouTube video and edit an existing one, but neither feature is working. Both choices are gray when I click on "annotations." This problem occurs both with Firefox 46.0.1 and IE. I tried clearing caches and cookies to no avail, and restarts don't help. Is anyone else having this problem? The YouTube forum is mum on this problem. Thanks.

    :)

    Win 10 'PHOTOS'

    Id expect to add a caption or annotate my photos. I cannot guess which location a feature was photographed. I assume I'm a bit dumb because I cant find the 'annotate' button and there MUST be one. Help?

    Can't add or edit YouTube annotations

    Lots of Youtube forum complaints

    here
    &
    here

    The most common fix that I saw was to use Google Chrome - but that wasn't 100%

    Thanks, Slartybart. Chrome let me modify existing annotations and create new ones.

    Interesting.
    Why would Chrome do what IE could not ?

    Good question. And what Firefox can no longer do, even in its safe mode. I suspect the answer has something to do with the fact that Chrome is a Google product, and YouTube is also Google-owned.
