Hi I want to play online games, I have the 5.1 mac explorer installed and runs quite fast, but I cant play any online games. Error says somewhat like no plug-in or java installed , can anyone help, Mac OS 9 w/update installed, 500mhz 192mb model: M5521 imac g3 powerpc blue color crt, 2000 series

*To play games using IE*, try the following:
Update to Internet Explorer (Classic) 5.1.7
Internet Explorer 5.1.7
Internet Explorer v5.1.7
"WARNING:" Microsoft ended support for Internet Explorer for Mac on December 31st, 2005, and is not providing any further security or performance updates.
Accordingly, as of January 31st, 2006, Internet Explorer for the Mac is no longer available for download from Microsoft.
==========
Once a week in IE Edit>Preferences, delet History, Empty Cache (if you have cable set Cache to 0).
Once a week Go into the system folder>preferences folder & trash the following preferences:
finder
ASLM
PPC Registration Database
Cache.waf-found inside the MS Internet Cache folder
MRJ Cache folder-a new one will be recreated.(If not found go to System folder>Application Support>MRJ Cache folder-trash all you find inside-(DO NOT TRASH THIS FOLDER)
Download Cache-found inside Explorer Folder
Downloads.html-found inside Explorer Folder
History.html-found inside Explorer Folder
Rebuild your desktop w/extensions off. Use Techtool Lite or Trash*Desktop - may delete Finder comments to rebuild your desktop w/extensions off. Does a better job than manually & you avoid all the finger gymnatics. You just have to hold down the shift key to shut off extensions.
Restart to turn the extensions back on again & empty the trash.
If you want to rebuild manually, see KB article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=10182 Rebuilding Desktop File and Icon Recovery.
If the above does not work, then dump the %#&*X@ & check out other Mac browsers
iCab v3 is a pretty good online game playing browser. You do not have to do all the TLC stuff mentioned above for IE.
BTW: Which online gaming site are you having issues with? Post the link/url for OS 9.x users to test for you.
Happy gaming!

HT1338 i've been getting an error when trying to play online games saying that i need to have the browser in 32 - bit mode. my browser is in 32 - bit mode but the msg keeps coming up and not running the game

i've been getting an error when trying to play online games saying that i need to have the browser in 32 - bit mode. my browser is in 32 - bit mode but the msg keeps coming up and not running the game

I dunno, that doesn't make any sense to me.
I just shut down and rebooted into the SnowLeopard partition and took a peek at the preference panes. There are only 3 that run in 32 bit only. They are all 3rd party, and none of the prefpanes are non Intel. Like I said, I have never owned a PPC machine. Anyhow, SnowLeopard doesn't even have an iCloud prefpane, or a combined mail, contacts, and calenders prefpane, and the ML security and privacy prefpane is all new as well. The software update prefpane is Intel and 64 bit in both SnowLeopard and Lion.
As to the triple boot, unless I'm totally mistaken, what I have here is, in essence, 3 seperate descrete computers in one box. All using the same hardware. but one at a time. I wouldn't know how to get more than one running at the same time, without using a virtual machine, even if I wanted to. (Which I don't) I do sometimes transfer files from one to another using the shared folder, but other than that, they do not interact. How could ML system preferences be trying to launch prefpanes from a totally different machine?

I'm connected to the Internet but I can't sign in on Skype or play online games?!

My parents changed the channel for the BT home hub and I am online the wifi config is all green but I can't play online game or Skype as it says I'm offline?! I have gone on advanced settings and updated my mac and restarted it but still no working but it works fine on my phone! HELP!

Am a newbie but somethings may work here, Go to dock preferences and to network and to your airport connection window.
You have a green light signal in network status window? If it is yellow or red it is unavailable. If your connection is full of traffic, this may effect connection.
In window you may need to type in optional search domains. Your provider should tell you this no one else~ They would also walk you through your connection failures. If it is yellow and you connect to your provider's router and don't have your own router, this number may not appear in your connection information. You need to tell them their router is down so they can fix it. They may not find out if pings come back. Pings may also be cached (I am not sure but it might) so it may take them a while to find out if you don't tell them. I would call your provider. Maybe empty your preferences in your browser. You may have cookies or garbage to empty there. Use another browser.

Cant play online games anymore

Hi,
Ever since I installed the new update for OSX, I cant play online games. Warcraft says "unable to connect to battle net". Medal of honor just crashes when I click "browse servers". Quake 3 says "no response from master server". Was working fine just a few days ago and the only change I can think that I made to my system was installing the OSX update. Could that be the problem? anyone else having this problem, or know how to fix it?

Have you tried this yet?
1. Click on the Go menu in the menu bar and select the Home menu item.
2. Open the Library folder.
3. Open the Preferences folder.
4. Look for and delete the Preferences file and the Battle.net file if it is there.
What ports do you have open in the Firewall and Router?
In order to connect to Battle.net and allow others to connect to you the following ports need to be opened:
Diablo: TCP and UDP Port 6112
StarCraft/Brood War: TCP and UDP Port 6112
Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition: TCP and UDP Port 6112
Diablo II/Lord of Destruction: TCP Port 6112 and Port 4000.
Warcraft III: TCP Ports 6112 to 6119, unless you have changed the default in the Options/Gameplay screen for port forwarding.
Some firewall programs have preset ports available in their configurations that are often necessary to be open. One in particular is a connection to your DNS server. This usually takes place on UDP port 53.

Nokia x6 - how to play online games.

Hello, i have got a question.
I was trying to play Online games such as MafiaWars, or other online multi player browser game. And with no results, on standard browser even page doesn't load, it does but i could seen just white screen.
Does any one have solve that problem?
I am writing to You just to get discussion about that problem. If anyone have something usefull to say please answer that question.
Regards, David. Thanks a lot.

I know that farmville could be played if you use Skyfire as your browser, but doing so would need hell of RAM management from you. Use of memcheck, KillMe, an ideal set of installed apps that will not eat RAM while running or installed, etc.

Open ports on new airport extreme to play online games

hey, i have the new airport extreme and i wanna play online games.
how do i open ports with the utily that came on disk.
i have no clue how to configure it.
i tried in bridge mode, but than the airport starts flashing amber and other users in house wanna surf on the net aswel.
kind regards

Airport Utility -> Manual setup (Cmd+L)
Internet -> NAT
Enable a default host
Then in Internet -> DHCP
permanently assign the default host IP to the machine you're going to play the games on.
This is what other routers call the "DMZ" address. Be sure to run a firewall on that machine!

Flash Player having problems while playing online games on OS X Mavericks

i use mbp mid 2010 with os x mavericks 10.9.2 and while playing online games, it usually happens some freezes and delays. when i play same game with same browser on windows 7(bootcamp) there is no freeze and delay. i have made lots of search about this and made some optimizations on flash player settings but the problem continues. i use both chrome and firefox on both mavericks and win7 (bootcamp) but having the same problems on mavericks every time. the game is very slow with freeze and delays on mavericks. will adobe make a real effective upgrade about flash player for macs.

Hmmm... Win 7 will run faster than Mavericks with 8Gb. Even my Vm of 7 runs faster once I get it past all the startup processes.
It may or may not be a connectivity problen since Windows uses a different protocol, even though it's on the same hardware. Usually though, what affects OS X will affect BootCamp too.
What browser?

Safari not allowing me to play online games

Hey all so when i try to play online games from like adult swim or any website at all none of the controls work I can't click on anything when im in the window for the game and also safari freezes up my computer. i have downloaded all the latest software updates from windows and safari and yet nothing seems to be working. Help me out please..

Safari isn't preventing you from playing any game; the game developer is doing that by only coding for Windows IE. So until they change that, you should use IE to play games, or try using the Develop menu in Safari to choose IE 6 or 7 as the User Agent to see if they will run that way.

Getting "error -50" when trying to play Online Class DVD-Rom

Hello everyone,
So the way my online statistics class lecture works is a DVD-Rom gets popped in my comp, and it opens the browser as the DVD-Rom menu. Then I click a chapter and a quicktime movie/video player window is supposed to pop up and play my lecture. It doesn't work on my computer. I am running a high quality computer that has the capability to run a full-fledged professional recording studio. It is really annoying that this won't work. My error says: "error -50: an unknown error occured". I tried updating, uninstalling, and re-installing. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Hi
This is an easy Q: to set - but there is no simple and plain answer only a lot of more or less plausibly suggestions.
Error -50 = paramErr Error in user parameter list
Can there be any external hard disks - if so How is/are it/they formatted ?
If so it Must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) if used for Video.
UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most but not for VIDEO.
What this means in Your situation is above me.
• free space on internal boot hard disk 11Gb is on the limit to work when You select Export and might be it.
Video used - there are several video formats/codecs and iMovie can not use all of them, they evolve to fast.
• So try to find out by opening a raw video in QuickTime-player and then open Inspector (cmd+I) and read
Video Format/Codec: nnnnnnnn
What does it read ?
Pictures
• in what format ? .jpg, .bmp, .tif, else ?
Audio
• from where/what format ? iTunes, .avi, .mp3, .aiff, else ?
I convert all audio to .aiff - in iTunes I burn out as an Audio-CD .aiff (not .mp3) and use the files on this in my movie projects.
Some times it's needed to trash the "com.apple.iMovie.plist" file in You USER-Library/Preferences (not Library on Root level (when opening Macintosh HD) - but the one in Your home folder.
Many users has not observed that there are TWO libraries.
• Library - at root level
• Library - in user/account folder - THIS IS THE ONE to look into
from Luke Burns
I fixed the problem.. but it was very, very strange. I had a very long section for credits and set the line spacing to 1.0.. for some reason this caused it. I removed it, and it worked fine. I put it back, and I couldn't preview or play the video.
I don't know why that could cause that big of a problem, but it did..

Jerky Connection - Impossible to play online games...

I recently switched over to BT ADSL internet. My connection with my old ISP was fine and had no problems. However now my connection seems very inconsistent which is particularly noticeable during online games because data is constantly being transferred.
Instead of the game characters moving around smoothly as usual, they jerk from position to position. My ping is fine though (<20). I made a short video so this can be seen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoTqO6-oLfE
This problem is not constrained to just gaming though. Webpages sometimes seem to 'hang' until I refresh and suffer occasional short disconnects. If I ping google.co.uk for example, you can see various losses and lag spikes:
Here is the status of my line:
Is there anything un-usual with these results? Things I have already tried include:
- Resetting Router
- Different Router
- Different Microfilters
- Different Computers
- Disabling Antivirus and Firewall
- Port Forwarding
Using a wired connection with an iPlate and BT Home Hub 3.0. Im a new customer and clearly something is not right - playing games online is virtually impossible. Ive already tried BT online help but seems if I want any more advice than "reset the router" I have to call a premium rate number!? Does BT block any ports or throttle the connection at all? Would it be possible for a BT engineer to come and investigate the problem and maybe fit a new socket?
Thanks for any advice, Ben.

your connection speed appears ok for your current attenuation but there are a lot of crc/hec errors and errors seconds for a conenction time of only 12hrs. with number of changes you have tried each requiring a reset I am surprised that your noise margin is still only 4.5db
I see you use an iplate so must have an NTE5 master socket. have you tried connecting to the test socket with a new filter and see if that helps. if you do conenct to test socket can you repost new stats please.
can you also run btspeedtester and post results
try quiet line test dial 17070 option 2 should hear nothing and best with corded phone if cordless then dull hum normal

MBP runs HOT when playing online games

Hi,
Yesterday I was playing online flash games and istatpro reports the fans were running at 4500rpm (they were very loud). Today I am running the same game and the fans don't run higher than 2800rpm with the cpu temperature at 92 degrees Celsius. Is this cause to be concerned? I got this macbook pro about a month and a half ago so if something is not functioning right I have free genius repairs.

Oh and random question: is it advised to keep the lid open when doing that graphics intensive stuff? Does that allow it to cool easier?
Yes, I'd say that's advisable when you're doing demanding work (or play) with it. All of its internal air circulation takes place through the vents below the display hinge, but it would certainly be able to radiate away more heat from its top case surface with its display open. You can also improve cooling by raising its back edge an inch or so to allow freer air convection underneath the bottom case.
When you're just emailing, word processing, working in spreadsheets or doing other low-demand tasks, the machine will stay quite cool in clamshell mode. No need to open it then.
