Okay, so I was taken aback a couple days ago when Youtube decided to force Google+ down our throats. It's so bad that it's now necessary to have a G+ account merely to comment on Youtube. In fact, it's so bad now that even when I have logged in, I am unable to comment.
So, I'm using Firefox v25. My Youtube account was linked with a G+ account, but I never used G+. Youtube still demanded, when I clicked on the comment box, to log in anyway, using G+, which I did (had to reset the password, because I'd forgotten it). So now I'm logged in. The box doesn't say to log in anymore, but when I click it, and start typing on my keyboard, nothing appears. My keyboard still works (it's wireless) as I'm typing this up just fine. I've tried copying and pasting from a word processor, I've tried using Win 7's Onscreen Keyboard, nothing. So...anyone have any ideas?
EDIT - I've solved it. I first typed a comment in Notepad, copied it by going to Edit, Copy, then going into Firefox, clicking Edit at the top and pasting from there. The box didn't accept pasting by CTRL-V, but only accepted keyboard input once I had pasted by clicking on Paste from the Edit menu.
