HT5267 I was instructed to install an update for Java yesterday.  Whenever I try to use it now I get a message 'plug-in blocked'.  How can I get it unblocked?

Since downloading the update recommended by Java yesterday, whenever I try and get into the crossword where I used it, I get the message 'plug-in blocked'. How can I 'unblock' it?

The newly discovered zero-day flaw in Java 7 is so serious that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has warned users to disable or uninstall it, and Apple has disabled the Java 7 plugin on Macs through its OS X anti-malware system, in order to protect users from a potentially serious security issue.
You should disable Java (if not already done) until either the US Department of Homeland Security, or Oracle, declare it safe and Apple restore the facility. Javascript should not be disabled (it has nothing to do with Java).
However, if you need the Jave 6 JRE and plug-in, MadMAC0 has posted at
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20107182?ac_cid=tw123456#20107182
Apple has also posted (Oct 22/12) the approved solution for restoring the Java 6 plug-in:
Java for OS X 2012-006: How to re-enable the Apple-provided Java SE 6 applet plug-in and Web Start functionality.

    Actually it sometimes gets a little further, the display will dim and the pointer will appear and then whoop it will turn off. if i do a verbose start up, it will finish all the steps, the white screen will appear and dim and then it will turn off.

  • My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?

    FYI Mac OS X is not designed to be installed on additional Macs, unless you purchased it from the App Store, in which case you can make as many copies as you wish and install it on as many Macs as you own.
    From the Recovery Disk Assistant -
    Notes
    If the computer shipped with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, the external recovery drive may only be used with the system that created it.
    If the system was upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion purchased from the App Store, the external recovery drive can be used with other similarly-upgraded systems.

    Ive just updated my iPhone4 to the IOS5 software and i have lost all my apps? why? and how can i get them back?

    When an iPhone updates, it wipes the whole device clean and then reinstalls the software and then the backup. Obviously you didn't create/couldn't create a backup either via iCloud or iTunes. You can get your apps back when you go to App Store>Updates>Purchased and download the apps you want.

    Everything should be on your computer.
    You should be syncing contacts and calendars with your comptuer regularly.
    You should be transferring all itunes purchases to your computer regularly.
    You should be importing all pics taken with iphone to your computer regularly.
    Most especially before any update.
    Have you failed to do this?

  • I updated my ad to iOS 6 and now my App Store app does not work, how can I get it back

    I updated my iPad 2 with the latest iOS 6 and now my App Store application does not work right.  The only part that does work is the genius, and the purchased, but I cannot search for any new apps now have the categories come up.  I don't know how else to search for apps, and I don't know how to download this as it was pre installed.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off".

  • Got Display driver via Windows Update for Windows 8.1 and try to use it for Windows Server 2012 R2

    Hi Everyone,
    the following driver cab is from Windows Update:
    https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=5be01620eea95d8c&id=5BE01620EEA95D8C!138&ithint=file,.cab&authkey=!APDi54-R1Ob5IWQ
    It includes this display driver:
    Intel(R) Q45/Q43 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)
    My problem is: I can't install this driver on Windows Server 2012 R2.
    I tried the following, nothing worked:
    a) pnputil -i -a intel.cab
    b) Extract cab, update the device's driver in device manager, select "search for driver software in this location"
    c) copy the files in system32/, system32/drivers, syswow64/ from a Windows 8.1 system to a Windows Server 2012 R2 system
    Isn't it true that any Windows 8.1 driver should also work for Windows Server 2012 R2 (same os version)?
    Thanks for your replies.

    my fiance and i share 1 icloud account on 2 iphones, after the ios 7 update he can now see all my text messages that I type on his phone, how can i fix this?  I don't see any of his, just the other way around.  The icloud account is in my name.

  • I Loose my windos xp. Installed windows 7 and get old data. Where (or how) can I get the old Firefox profile where I have my bookmarks? Thanks

    I loose my windows xp. Install a new Hard drive with windows 7 and a new Firefox. I have acess to old HD data. Where can I get the Firefox profile with old bookmarks?

    See the following article: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles|Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

  • I updated my iPod touch 4 to the latest OS and now the admin doesn't come up. How can I access the iPod admin?

    I have unplug and plugged in my iPod to my pc 100 times and admin never comes up. When i go to iTunes I don't see anyway to
    get to the iPod admin.  I copied quite a few of my CD's into iTunes but can't find a way to sync the player with the itunes on my computer.
    I don't like the new update...it changed the look and feel of everything...for the worse.

    Many people haven't yet figured out the new default interface in iTunes 11 but it's not that difficult. To get to the iPod information so you can sync, click the iPod button in the header bar at the upper-right, e.g.:
    Or go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" and the interface will then look substantially like it did in earlier versions. If you are running Windows and don't see the menus, press Control-B or go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":

  • When Firefox 30 updated it knocked out my note unit that used to be on the right corner near the other control, can I get it back

    The note add on I am looking for was designated by a square in the right hand corner. It had all my doctors phone numbers and appointments etc., and I have lost the lot since the upgrade. The other thing is I can remember the name of add on, all I can remember is Firefox asked me to install it, I didn't go looking for it.

    HI nibar7,
    Thank you for your question, I understand that there was an add on that you had in the right hand corner that is no longer there after an update in Firefox. Please try [[Re-enable add-ons that were disabled when updating Firefox]] to see if the add on is still installed, but not longer active.
    However if this add on was not compatible with the new update, it is removed in the update process. Please check to see if you have a back up of the profile from before the update.
