Firefox can't find Java to play games even though it is up to date

used to use AOL to play games,but latest Java update throws a runtime error and shuts Aol down. Advised to use latest Firefox to play games. Java is up to date but can't be found when trying to play in Pogo. Any ideas?

Try a direct connection:<br />
Control Panel > Java > General tab > "Network Settings...": "Direct Connection" (enable)

  • Itunes 6.0.4 can't find 80% of my songs even though they're still there

    i'm having the following problem, since upgrading to 6.0.4 on my Windows XP machine:
    net: ~20% of my song files will play as normal, ~80% of the songs in itunes say they can't find original file and i have to manually locate to find, they're all still there in their original location
    did some troubleshooting and manual analysis of the itunes library .xml file and discovered that the difference is that some of my songs were ripped "with track number prefix" and some without. this appears to be the discrepancy
    e.g. the itunes music library .xml file is pointing to:
    C:\...\itunes\itunes music\...\03 Songname.mp4
    when the actual file is at
    C:\...\itunes\itunes music\...\Songname.mp4
    or vice versa.
    Does anyone have suggestions on how to correct? i'm open to all suggestions including e.g. suggestions for how to either update the .xml file or rename the affected files?
    note: re-adding folder to library is not a valid solution for me as it would require deleting the "missing" songs as duplicates and net will delete all my ratings, genre, etc. for the "missing" songs.
    thanks for any suggestions, much appreciated.

    Are these "thousands of files" in an iTunes library that simply cannot be found?
    If so, assuming you know exactly where they are, hold the "Option" key while opening iTunes from your dock.  You will then be given a "Choose Library" option.  Choose it and point to your library.

  • I rented a movie on my computer and transferred it to my ipad mini and can't find it on the mini even though it shows that it is there when I look on the computer.  It is not in my video app on the mini.  Where can I find it to watch?

    I rented a movie on my computer and transferred it to my iPad mini.  I see it was purchased on my computer in my account and the charges for it and can even see where it is on my iPad on the computer but can't find it on the iPad itself.  It is not in Videos.  I have this problem every time I rent movies and somehow I eventually find it but I don't know how it eventually gets on the iPad.  I'm leaving on a trip and want to watch it on the way.

    You move the movie from iTunes to iPad (tap to enlarge image)
    Movie will be moved to the Videos app.

  • My computer and phone both can not find the airport wireless connection even though the status light is green whats going on?

    I have cox as my internet provider and the last couple weeks i have been having a ton of connection problems. The status light on my airport express is green but my computer is saying the connection is timing out and my phone is having issues connecting to the internet even though it says it is still connected to my wireless network. is it my airport express or something else?

    Manually mount the TC in the computer..
    In finder use Go/Connect to server.
    Type in the name of the TC or its IP address.. I recommend you use all names of SMB standard.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric. That will give you much less trouble.
    So AFP://TCname.local (where you use the TCname replaced with the actual network name of the TC. local is the domain by default.
    You can use alternative AFP://TCIPaddress like AFP://10.0.1.1 (default IP of TC as router). This is only useful when the TC has a static IP.
    Make sure ipv6 is set to link-local in all the network adapters in the computer and the TC.
    Then go to TM preferences and you should see the TC listed as a possible target for TM.
    Read Pondini for other issues.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    eg C9 about long names.
    A1 to get log info from TM
    A4 to reset the TM setup.

  • Used the file transfer software from Apple to move music and photos from PC to iMac and can't find the files on iMac even though it was "successful" any help?

    Used the file transfer software from Apple to move music and photos to iMac.  After several hours it was "successful" but I can't locate it on the iMac.  Any ideas for the rookie?

    The music should be in iTunes and your photos should be in iPhoto. What happens if you launch those applications?
    Best of luck.

  • Firefox can't find the server at playfi.sh

    every time that I try to click on a link for Playfish free gifts for apps that I play through Facebook or through an email to a link being offered by Playfish, I get the following message:
    Server not found
    Firefox can't find the server at playfi.sh.
    Check the address for typing errors such as
    ww.example.com instead of
    www.example.com
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    I have cleaned cache, checked firewall, allowed in pop-up blocker, everything and nothing works... I can play the apps with no problem, it is only when trying to collect the items offered as gifts from Playfish.

    You have malware.

  • Can't watch video and play games that require flash player

    I'm using windows7 family premium version
    internet explorer 10 last version 10.0.5
    exploitation system 64 bytes
    flash player verson 11..700.202 the latest one
    So as i say can't watch video and play games that require flash player, they keep asking me to install flashplayer... i did everything i read in the forums, unistall it, clean the memory, reinstall it, disabe active x etc... but still have the problem.
    More specific about my problem is that: let's say that i'm trying to look at you tutorial video under thi forum  Re: How do I fix Windows permission problems with Flash Player? i'm just seeing a black screen.  So I'm able to guess where is the play button so when i push on that place, i can hear the sound of that video.  Second step guessing where is the  enlarge  button, and when the screen is enlarged, magic i can see and hear the video.... So you figure that it's impossible to use my computer like that and guess right all the time, so....
    Second fact, it seems that bug happened after an update (windows or explorer) and i even talk with a microsott tech who was not able to resolve it... But if i'm  undoning  the update and go back to a prior image, i have no problems with flash player anymore... it' been moths that i'm delaying my updates cause i cannot find any solutions.... So Please please please, help me .... don't know what's the problem is and i'm not a pro, don't know what to do.  (Excuse my english it's my second language)
    Thank you

    The first thing I'd try is updating your video driver.
    Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?
    If you still have problems and since you're using Windows 7 x64, please check to see if you have the following Windows update installed:
    KB2670838 – Platform Update for Windows 7 x64
    If so, please uninstall it and try Flash Player out again.

  • Firefox will not show links to flv files. I get the error message for each flv file: "File not found. Firefox can't find the file at (path) .flv." Any mov and swf files in this same path will show. I can see the videos in Safari so the paths are correct.

    Firefox will not show links to flv files. I get the error message for each flv file: "File not found. Firefox can't find the file at http:// (path) .flv." Any mov and swf files in this same path will show. I can see the videos in Safari so the paths are correct.

    Is this a webpage that contains a link to a flv file? Please post a link to the page and tell us which link(s) are the problem flv files or else post a link to the .flv file itself.
    Alternately, click on one of the sample FLV File links on this page and tell us exactly what happens:
    http://www.mediacollege.com/adobe/flash/video/tutorial/example-flv.html
    It might also help if you post the exact error message, including the path to the flv file.
    '''Note:'''
    Depending on how you have Firefox set up, clicking on a FLV File link will either save the FLV file to your computer or Firefox may open it automatically in an external application right after downloading (Firefox may ask you first). Firefox itself can't play FLV files so you need a "helper" application (or a plugin for flv files, if ther is one. You can see if Firefox is already set up to download or open FLV files by going to Firefox Preferences and looking in the Applications list. Find the FLV file type in the list and, if the action is "Open with", it should show the application that can play FLV files (e.g., VLC Media Player or Perian). See [[Managing filetypes]] for more information.

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 27.0 some webpages will not load when I click on them. It gives me a message saying that Firefox can't find the server. I have to click the link several time before it will load and sometimes when they do load it does not show the page right. It is like the HTML is messed up or something. I have tried everything I can think of. I started in safe mode, still did it., I removed add-ons, still did it., I reset Firefox and still did it., I completely uninstalled Firefox and re-installed Firefox and it still does it. I have tried Malware Bytes Anti-Malware scans and Avast boot-time scans and found no malware or viruses. I have found that those websites open the first time with no problems on my IE9 and they used to do so in Firefox 26.0. I'm at my wit's end. The website links are in my bookmarks and are used all the time so they are trusted and my avast is set to allow them. They range from news websites to gun websites and everything I have read says that Mozilla does not filter those unless something has changed recently.

    Try this as a first step;<BR><BR>

  • Firefox can't find the file at (a location is specified) when either "Navigate previous" (and next) buttons are pressed in an HTML5 skin (but OK in IE/Chrome).

    I create HTML5 help projects from a package called MadCap Flare. It uses what they call an HTML5 'skin' that sets the style/layout of the page and also includes 'Navigate previous' and 'Navigate next' buttons. When viewing the help and pressing these navigate buttons in IE8 or Chrome 32 there is no problem, but in Firefox 27 I get the following: (typical error for pressing a button on any page)
    "File not found"
    "Firefox can't find the file at /C:/SVN/FlareEnglishOnLineHelp/Output/HTML5_Help_Modeller_Reference/4attrib/idh_jointinterface_element_meshes.htm?TocPath=Modeller Reference Manual|Chapter 5 : Model Attributes|Meshing|_____2."
    " Check the file name for capitalisation or other typing errors."
    " Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted."
    - Because the files and buttons work in other browsers I'm wondering just what is going on here with Firefox>>>>

    I should correct that last entry and state that the | charactacters are generated automatically in the Toc-Path for each 'book' name in the online help, and are not something manually created, whereas the : characters have come from the TOC book topic names (which were manually entered names and are what we would ideally require). But, because 'previous' and 'next' topics within nested TOC books without colon (:) characters CAN be browsed successfully when just | characters are present in the Toc-Path, the limitation would appear to be solely due to the : characters.

  • My home page is google and it works but when I open a new tab it displays an error message :Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.ht

    I've made sure a dozen times that my home page is set correctly, and when I hit the home button next to the search bar it works and takes me right to google BUT whenever i open a new tab i get the error that my page cannot load and the web url that it keeps trying to remember is in the error message:
    Firefox can't find the file at chrome://quick_start/content/index.html.
    of course the last dot is not the url anymore but the end of the sentence for the error message, but i don't ever use chrome ever on my laptop only my cell so what is going on????? help fix god please!!!!!!

    Do you have the FastStart extension?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
