What Mac and Mac OS X version do you have and what browser and Flash version do you use?
Has a restart helped?

I had this same problem happening to me. Go to http://www.youtube.com/html5 and make sure you are not in the html 5 trial. That did the trick for me anyways.

For Flash issues:

• Find your Flash version and make sure it's the latest version available.
• Install ClickToFlash (Safari), Flashblock (Firefox) or FlashBlock (Chrome) to control which Flash content plays on websites.
• Use the YouTube HTML5 Video Player to watch YouTube videos, when available. (May impact fullscreen viewing. See link for details.)

YouTube only for the new

Older macs, especially G4 iMac's can't handle YouTube anymore. The video is to much for them but the audio is not.
