Keep getting warnings that IE will not be supporting Youtube for much longer so I have opened up Mozilla Firefox browser, but I can't get my Youtube playlists on Firefox. Is it a complicated job, or even is it possible to transfer it?

Your playlist is linked to your Youtube account and totally independent of your browser. If you simply go to http://www.youtube.com/ and log in to your account (via the blue button at the top right) you should be able to access everything associated with your account.

Where are these warning coming from??
I'm on IE and I've never had any warnings.
If you did want to switch and use firefox, I'd assume that all you need to do is go to the youtube website using firefox and then simply log onto your account ... all your playlists are in your account .... aren't they ??

Thanks chris I'm finding my way around firefox atm, favourites etc. I'll check for the blue button. I have accessed Youtube by the symbol on the firefox opening page but it doesn't show my playlist, as it does when I open it on IE.

Gizmonster my IE 7/8 browser is going out of date. According to Youtube message it also tells me on BTwebsite too. IE9/11 makes this laptop chug like and ole engine. I can only support 32 bit,IE9 is for 64? bits I think.

>>>as it does when I open it on IE

That's probably because you've got IE set up to log you in automatically. Log in with Firefox and ensure that the 'Remember me on this computer' box is checked when you do so.

Ah .... I see. I'm on IE10 which is prob why I'm not getting the same warnings .....

Chris you are right about being automatically logged into Youtube with IE. I've found my way in on Firefox now. Thank you.
Methyl, I have Windows Vista HP Notebook 2.00GB, 32 bit operating system. I have seen where I can upgrade Windows Vista, but not sure what that means. As I mentioned earlier I tried IE9 and the laptop became hot and chugged like an old engine half expected it to blow up, so I reverted back to IE7 (I think)
I've also wondered, now that I'm on Firefox whether that is equivalent to IE7/8 and whether I'm overloading it anyway. Sorry to bring so many questions into this you I'm grateful you took time to respond.
