  If you do a forum search or just look at the YouTube tag you’ll see there are a lot of people having problems with YouTube today. Follow the instructions you see in the other threads https://en.forums.wordpress.com/tags/youtube

  I’ve answered the question in detail half a dozen times already. It’s there. If you don’t want to follow the instructions, then don’t, but don’t blame me.

  If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first. If you are, try clearing your browser’s cache http://www.google.com/support/accounts

  The shortcodes work every time for me. It takes less than 30 seconds to post one. The video embeds that WordPress.com supports for all of our blogs – no upgrade required. http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/
