On a YouTube page, I click SIGN IN (in red at top right). A new tab

where I came from and so on). Anyway, It says
Sign in
Continue to YouTube
Email or phone
there isn't a Password box, though there is a NEXT button.
So I enter my email, and either press enter, or click NEXT, Nothing
happens. (I was expecting to get a new screen prompting for password or
something.)

John, I use SeaMonkey Suite (think Firefox plus Thunderbird plus ...)
and, many years ago, I was trying to get into something like youtube.ca
which used a log-in icon supplied from google.com .... and I had set up
my SeaMonkey to not download links/buttons/etc supplied from other
sites, so I had no way of logging in .... until I went into settings
and allowed my SM to get things from other sites!!


Thanks for replying. Good thought.

I don't use Chrome so don't know if it has a similar setting or not,
but might be worth a look!

I only have these (Chrome calls them "Extensions"), and I don't think
any of them would be blocking in that way:

Blank New Tab Page
Easy! Show Title Plus
EditThisCookie
Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on (by Google)
Show Title Tag
Video DownloadHelper

I don't think any of these would block a logo. As for a general Chrome
setting, I can't _think_ of a Chrome setting which has such a blacklist
option, though there may be one; since Chrome itself and YouTube are
both Google products, I don't imagine they'd fight each other!

Though if anyone knows otherwise, please share! It's tedious having to
switch back to my ancient Firefox (in which YouTube videos don't
actually play) to leave comments and similar.
