I recently updated my Java and now can not play any games on Pogo , I have checked and enabled Java and when I try to enter games it tells me I need Java and when I check my system I have the current Java installed and enabled. 😟
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
The games may not be compatitble with the new version of Java that you have enabled.
If you installed Java 7, I haven't found much that is compatible. It might be getting better, though, as I haven't checked in several months.
You installed the Oracle Java 7 plugin, which is insecure and has been blocked by Apple. To revert to the Java 6 plugin, follow these instructions:
How to re-enable the Apple-provided Java SE 6 applet plug-in
All versions of Java should be considered insecure. Enable Java in your web browser only when absolutely necessary, and disable it as soon as you're done with whatever task requires it.
I tried this and it did not work 😟 Please help!
From the Safari menu bar, select
Help ▹ Installed Plug-ins
There is a list of MIME types for each plugin. Under "Java Applet Plug-in" you should have this:
| application/x-java-applet;jpi-version=1.6.0_37 |
Is that what you see?
I see application/x-java-applet;jpi-version=1.7.0_11
but from the pogo discussions i moved java to the trash and went to an apple site to download a remover for the problem the I reinstalled Java and it is working for the moment but I only tried it once.
Thank You so much for all your help and if it discontinues working I will be sure to let you know.
Thanks Again 🙂
Ok my Java games worked fine untill today not I get the same message: You need to enable Java and I DO have Java enabled...very frustrating!!
Thanks for any help you can offer:)
Java has again been blocked for security reasons. There is no available Java plugin now. Expect this to be a recurring problem. I suggest you eliminate network Java from your workflow as soon as possible. It will never be safe.
