Why can i not open pop up windows ?

When trying to play games on Yahoo I get error message- application blocked by security settings-
I have uninstalled Java and reinstalled the latest version.

In the message that comes up, what is the explanation given for the security block? I assume it's not the one about needing to update Java. Could you either post the message or a screen shot of the message in a reply?
The latest update to Java introduced some stronger security restrictions, so that might explain it. You might have noticed in the past a little warning in the dialog where you approved the page's Java applet to run that it was unsigned or some other issue. Those unsigned applets now are completely blocked if you have set "High Security" in the Java Control Panel.
''Try clearing Firefox's cache, and emptying the Java cache before relaxing Java security.''
(1) You can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) To clear the Java cache, first open the Java Control Panel (in the Windows Control Panel in the Programs category, at least on Windows 7)
Then see this article for details: [http://www.java.com/en/download/help/plugin_cache.xml How do I clear the Java cache?]
The reload the page and see whether Yahoo! offers an updated applet that doesn't have the security problem. Any luck?
To check/change your security level, open the Java control panel, then see this article for more information on the slider and where you can enter site exceptions: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/jcp.html#security
You might try this:
(1) Move the slider to Medium temporarily
(2) Reload the Yahoo page and see whether you get a dialog to approve the applet and save the site as an exception
(3) Move the slider back to High after saving the exception, assuming you trust the source
Does that work?

  • Why can I not open a new window but I can open new tabs in V3.6.16?

    I am running Firefox 3.6.16 on both my PC and my laptop. The program works fine on my PC, I can open both new windows and new tabs. However, on my laptop I can not open a new window. Tabs open just fine, but when I try to open a new window nothing happens. Also, when I close the program after trying to open a new window the program is still running but I have no Firefox window to work in and therefore have to go through the Task Manager to end the program. And when I re-open it, I get asked if I want to restore the session or start a new session. Is there a way to

  • Why can I not open multiple playlists/windows in itunes? Ugh!

    I have used an ipod in the past and was always editing playlists. I would open multiple windows and drag and drop between them. Now, with my iphone i would like to be able to do the same thing but apparently apple thinks this feature is useless i guess? itunes 11 has removed it? I tried "upgrading" to itunes 10 to reclaim this great and underated feature and to no avail.
    It told me that my library or user something or other was created with a newer version of itunes, so now im back with the "downgrade" of itunes 11. I mean, do i need to use media monkey exclusively? And then deal with my iphone thinking its being pirated everytime i want to hook it up to my computer? This is crazy! It's no wonder people jailbreak iphones. But i shouldn't have to, and apple needs to put that simple multitasking with multiple windows/playlists feature back into itunes.

  • Why can I not open some attached emailed pdf files?

    PLEASE HELP ME! I HAVE TO OPEN THESE FILES MY BUSINESS DEPENDS ON IT! why can I not open some attached pdf files and others are ok?

    PDF files are extremely reliable. You may have a software issue. I have the problem on 2 identical systems with the exact same specs. The problem occurs at the same exact interval. It may be a windows update. We have had to re-install software form the DVD in each instance. This fixes it for awhile and then it recoccurs. Adobe acts as if they have never heard of the problem...imagine that. I'm the only one with th problem.
    This is happens with CS6 volume lic product.
    If you dont own Adobe product it will be even more difficult to find and answer as the reader is used my so many people.
    We know we have the problem again when we double click opn a PDF and nothing happens. SOme have reported that reloading does not fix the problem.
    Wish I could help you. I am looking for answers to this issue right now and phone support is a 30 minute wait.
    Very frustrating.

    Why can I not open files saved on a server?

    I think I figured it out.  I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine.  Whoop Whoop.  Thanks for your help.

  • After upgrading to 3.6.12 my browser is not opening pop-up windows and while closing the browser giving a message that some tabs are open and shall the same be closed? I have not encountered this problem with eralier version. Is there any known issues?

    Some of my web pages open a new pop-up window for entering credentilas and display sensitive information. After upgrading t0 3.6.12 i found that firefos is not opening pop-up windows (earlier version allowed). When I close the browser, it gives a quit message saying there are unclosed tabs and windows of firefox. shall they be saved for next time start.
    Also observed that the memory usage (from Task manager)is very high compared to earlier ones and the process is not closed even if I close the browser.

    3.6.13 is also behaving similarly.

  • Why can I not open PDF-files in InDesign CS4?

    Hi,
    Well then, as I wrote in the headline... Why can I not open PDF-files?
    I get a notification that says that either the file is already open (which it's not) or it is missing a plug-in thingy for this kind of file.
    So, how do I know which plug-in thing I should chose from Adobe which will solve my problem?
    Could it be enough just to update the program? I tried with 6.0.6. upgrade but it wouldn't even open up. I'm not so good at this type of computerproblems (choosing upgrades, plug-in etc.). The program is not upgraded for a long time, unless it do it automatically, but I think we've chosen it not to....
    Please help!

    You need to have Application manager installed.

    The version error messages are really screwed up and out of sync with the new naming (CC) system. CS8.1 would be CC2014 version 10.1
