How do I get Java to work?

The trading platform at my stockbroker runs some kind of java (I don't jnow much about java but you see the Sun Microsystems loading screen and the java cup as it launches).
I've never got it to work properly with Safari or any other browser. Can trade on it but a lot of features don't work (eg the yes/no buttons don't show up in dialogue box).
I've downloaded latest version of Java from Apple (though I don't see any java plug-ins in the internet plug-ins folder in my user library?). I always run latest version of Firefox too.
I thought Java was some kind of universal, machine independent thing? Why does it work fine on really old PCs I use at other sites, but not on Macs? I may have to buy a cheap pc laptop just to have full functionality on the broking site.
Thanks for any advice.

hi! I have the same problem! is there anyone can help us?
this is from terminal: java version "1.5.0_13"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_13-b05-241)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_13-121, mixed mode, sharing)

  • How do I get Java Applets working on FF4 Mac?

    My website's photo upload applet uses Java to upload, and ever since FF4 beta releases, all the way up to the final, I get a missing plugin error. This error is ONLY on FF, it works on chrome and safari.
    Screenshot:
    http://img23.imageshack.us/i/javad.png/
    Clicking manual install goes to:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/download-138376.html
    So in other words, the manual install is pointless.
    How can I get these applets working?

    PS. I'm downgrading till this is fixed. FF4 is useless to me without this ability. I always liked FF for the better upload ability over Safari and Chrome, so I'd love to be able to use it. :-)

  • How do I get Java 7 working on my machine

    I hava a Java app at my work that requires Java 7 to run.
    I downloaded and installed the JRE and JDK for 7u40 from Oracle, however when I try to start the app, it still tries to start with Java 6.
    If I type java -version, it shows 1.7.0_40, but when I click on the app in the finder, it gets version 6.
    Any ideas?
    David

    The Oracle JRE is a web plugin only. The JDK is for building standalone apps with Java embedded. Neither one will run packaged Java applications that depend on the built-in Java framework. Apple doesn't distribute a Java 7 runtime. So you're out of luck, if the application really does depend on Java 7. You would have to run it on a non-Apple platform, potentially in a virtual machine.

    On the site my school uses as a virtual classroom, we have the option to "enable HTML creator". I click on the button, and does not come up for my iPad.  It does, however, work on my laptop.  Is there a setting I need to adjust?

    Java is not supported on the iPad, there is no setting to adjust.

  • How can one get java to work with SnowLeopard and FF13

    SInce the install of the most recent Java update (9)  for SnowLeopard (10.6.8) Firefox 13 simply advises that there is no plugin installed.  The behavior the update indicates will take place (where the web page provides the option to enable the plugin) simply has never presented itself. At this point, java is simply no longer available on a Mac running SNowLeopard and using Firefox.  Is there a solution to this other than upgrading to Lion?

    Yes. However, do note that FF is only on the machine for testing, I don't use it, preferring Safari. Any further issues with FF are best answered at http://support.mozilla.org/

  • I have 2 ipod touch's that both have frozen screens and will not reset or show up in itunes. They both froze after trying to update to the latest software version. How do I get them to work?

    I have 2 touch's that froze when trying to update to the latest ios version. Neither respond to restarting the devices. They are also not recognized in windows or itunes. How do I get these to work. I followed all of the instructions on  the apple website and they still don't work. I have verified that I have apple support for mobile devices installed in itunes and my version of itunes is 11.0.1. I am running windows 7 64bit with service pack 1 installed and all of my updates are current. Is anybody else having this problem with their apple devices?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Based on what you've posted, your computer does not have the right tuner.   You need a QAM tuner to record locals from FiOS, or a CableCard tuner to record all local and cable channels from FiOS.
    QAM tuners to record local channels only
    This requires Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250
    SiliconDust HDHomeRun (info on a sale)
    CableCard tuner to record local and cable channels
    This requires Windows 7 + one CableCard from Verizon for $3.99/mo
    ATI TV Wonder Digital PC CableCard Tuner (records one channel at a time) -- $200-$250 on ebay
    Ceton MOCUR tuner (records four channels at a time) -- coming in early 2010 for $400-$600
    Make sure your computer has Windows 7 Home Premium (or better) installed.   That's necessary to support CableCard tuners.

    How do I get iChat 3 working ? Upgrade hints:FAQ
    Trouble Shooting Revisited
    Ok We will start with loading Tiger and iChat version 3.0
    From Panther
    There are or were serveral Add-ons and applications avaiblable to Panther users of iChat that are not compatible with iChat 3.
    These following need to be deleted.
    iCAR - An Add-on that posts an Auto response Away message (produces a 1 fps result in a Video chat)
    Virex for Panther - An Anti Virus app avialable to @mac account users (Produces the 1 fsp problem)
    iChatUSBCam for Panther/iChat2.x - A Add-on utility for using iSight or USB cam with iChat2.x (Incompatible with Tiger/iChat 3)
    iProfile - An Add-on for producing a profile on the AIM server that ichat 2.x could not do (not proven to be a problem but now not needed).
    A clean install of Tiger (not Archive and Install) produces the best results.
    But any install should also check these Tiger settings.
    First, UPGRADE to 10.4.3 as this gets past many Connection issues that became apparent with the basic Tiger (10.4) and iChat 3.0 It updates iChat to version 3.1
    Check Settings
    Don't be complacent that you have not set anything different.
    There are several new things in Tiger that may trip you up.
    These are worth looking at:
    Mac Firewall. Now includes the ability to Block all UDP traffic in the Advanced button (System Preferences > Sharing >Firewall tab then the Advanced Button).
    Also can now open UDP protocol for ports where as the Panther one only did TCP (Check any old Panther settings you Added to the presets).
    The ports should be:
    TCP -5190
    UDP -5060, 5190, 5678, 16384-16403
    There are more ports for Bonjour 5297, 5298, 5353 UDP and 5298 TCP and Jabber, 5220, 5222, 5223 on TCP)
    (Table View see 7th Sept)
    QuickTime. This has a change in the name of the Connection Speed tab to Streaming (System Preferences > QuickTime) Check this is set to be equal to your connection speed (the download one if this is faster). See Apple Doc 301641 Dated 9th November 2005.
    Date & Time. Not conclusively involved but worth eliminating. Set a Network Server and the correct Time Zone.
    Apple Remote Desktop. If this is active in System Preferences > Sharing > Services tab it causes problems for iChat.
    Next, test the actual speed you are getting from your ISP.
    http://www.dslreports.com/stest
    There is a table here of the speeds you need:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301050
    The one you get linked to in the Help menu is wrong.
    Other Known Problems
    There are several other applications that iChat 3 does not seem to like.
    folding@home This is a application that uses spare processor time to help find protein chains for a University.
    PostgreSQL This is a data base application that can be reset to allow more processor time for iChat. See here http://www.murraywilliams.com/blog/archives/000046.html
    Lotus Notes Some people have reported problems with this.
    Make sure any Add-on Video cards or input PCI cards have up to date Firmware
    IF you are still having problems I would do Routine Maintenance Tasks as laid out here.
    Lastly, some routers/modems are SIP aware and give different results in iChat 3 compared to iChat 2.
    This is due to the Operating System changing (like a new computer connecting to the modem) rather than iChat.
    See My web pages: page4 at the SIP Text in a Box section.
    Also for the above try some housekeeping particularly if you do not keep your Computer on 24/7 Gulliver, "kmosx3: Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System maintenance"

    i think apple needs to keep up with the jones here, so far i read at LOGIC PRO FORUMS many saying cubase and pro tools left logic in the dust, 1 year ago already, sad, but true
    in anycase, trye starting one app before the other to see which combination works., other wise i think more apps will fall out of sync with old logic pro
