  We cannot help unless you provide specifics as opposed to vague requests without any details.
  Which videos?
  What are the URLs please?

  The video embeds that WordPress.com supports for all of our blogs – no upgrade required. http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/

  Video shortcodes > http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/#video

  it is not a URL. I am simply clicking on the New post, Video, Fetch Video…then the whole thing times out and I cannot choose any videos from my desktop as I would have thought would be the next step?

  I can tell you did not read the information at the links I posted above.

  The VideoPress upgrade allows you to host and play videos right from your blog. VideoPress is priced per year and per blog. You can purchase it from the Store panel of your dashboard. http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/

  See here for video (without the upgrade):

  If you upload your videos to youtube then you do not need the upgrade.
