Hello Lxbdifjr,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you are unable to watch YouTube using Safari on your Mac. We are happy to help.


Have you ever been able to watch YouTube using Safari? If so, when did it stop working as expected? What is the exact error message, if any, you receive? Which macOS version is installed on your Mac? Have you made any recent changes to your Mac? These answers will allow us to isolate the cause and get on a path to a resolution.


If you haven’t done so, we recommend using the steps here to clear your browsing history: Clear your browsing history in Safari on Mac - Apple Support


We also recommend using the steps here in section titled “Restart” to restart your Mac: Log out, sleep, wake, restart, or shut down your Mac - Apple Support


Let us know the results.


Take care.
