java 7 update 17 not working in safari

I am just setting up a new laptop, and installed the latest java 7 update 17. It works fine on Firefox, but will not work in Safari. Before you tell me "dont use java", I have to. My works website uses java for download, so I must have it (until we move to Aspera).


I have checked both the system Java version (latest, and enabled) and the browsers settings. Java is enabled in all places it should be, yet I cannot get it to work in Safari. The Java website even tells me it cant even verify if Im running java or not. This is very annoying.


So to recap:


Safari: Enable Plugins, Enable Java and Enable Javascript is turned on.

Block Pop Ups is turned off.

Java 7 Update 17 has been installed on this computer.


Java:

System Tells me Im running the recommended version.

Security: Is set to HIGH, I even turned it lower at one point.


Ive repaired permissions, rebooted, etc. but no luck.


Any ideas?

you are a genius, I wish I stumbled upon this hours ago.

Thank you thank you thank you.

I needed Java to download Ford my sync update.

The my sync system is terrible, the only problem I have with a new 2013 fusion.

Typical microsoft program--put it out, fix it later, but it has now been out for quite awhile.

It works for about a week then will not recognize my phone.

Thanks again,

Paul
