- Rated 3 out of 5by syn294, 5 years agoAlways got this error message: An error occurred. Please try again later. (Playback ID: nKXJSBrXjhF2TUc9)
or something similar when playing youtube videos. If i left it for a couple of seconds, the video will just play by itself anyway, but nevertheless still kind of annoyingDeveloper response
posted 5 years agoHi syn294, We're not able to consistently reproduce this error on YouTube. Could you check to make sure your filter lists are updated? If the issue persists after updating your filter lists, please reach out to us at help@getadblock.com and be sure to include your debug data: https://help.getadblock.com/support/solutions/articles/6000087856. In the meantime, reloading the page seems to be the fastest way to dismiss the error message (disabling EasyList will stop the error but will also allow ads to appear). --AdBlock Support - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15069092, 5 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13958735, 5 years agoI've used this Adblock in multiple browsers, usually good. Having issues Mar 2020, Adblock is blocking entire videos on YouTube... Found work around to get videos to work, disabled "Easy List" in settings...

Firefox has been my steady browser for many years, but that changed today. FF had been a safe haven in a stormy digital search engine war, but today I noticed the hijackers they are trying to force upon me. Their alternatives for search engines , for me, are unacceptable despite their popularity. Engaging the searcher, etc. I prefer, they make it very difficult. Frankly for me it has not been possible! Point is that MY devices work FOR me. I tell THEM what to do, not vice versa. So today I let FF go her unfaithful way as I begin life anew with another search engine for my partner. vdsavell
- Rated 1 out of 5by Teg, 5 years agoEvery time I close firefox, I have to go back into options and reapply every block list, as it defaults to no protection at all.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15728422, 5 years agoWith the most recent update sometime in 2020, this add-on is now broken. It no longer blocks video ads on YouTube, it doesn't block ads on some sites and you can no longer block ads by selection. I don't know what the developers were thinking by updating to this broken version, but they need to rethink that change. 1 star.

posted 5 years agoHi, We believe this is an issue related to being unsubscribed to our primary filter list, EasyList. To enable EasyList, please click the AdBlock button in the browser toolbar and select Options. On the Filter lists tab, select "EasyList". Refresh the page where you were seeing ads. This should resolve this issue but please reach out to us at help@getadblock.com if the problem persists. --AdBlock Support - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13818546, 5 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by sindy, 5 years agoThe new permissions are just too much for a product that no longer works as advertised. I'd advise everyone to look around. There are programs that are better. Too much greed with the permissions, I'm turning this off.

"We believe this is an issue related to being unsubscribed to our primary filter list, EasyList. To enable EasyList, please click the AdBlock button in the browser toolbar and select Options. On the Filter lists tab, select "EasyList".
I did exactly as written and it has worked. So I recommend every one who has said issues give this an attempt before totally giving up.
Also, thank you to developer for informing about this. - Rated 1 out of 5by brb7mam, 5 years agothe new update dosn't block adds anymore if you didn't update then don't

- Rated 1 out of 5by smph, 5 years agoThis worked very poorly (Firefox). It didn't block ads until I did so manually.
