Java Applets Running Games In IE 5.5 and Windows ME

I've got problems running Java Applets on computer. I'm not sure who is to blame for the problem, IE or Windows ME. I find this problem when I go to any site mostly game sites and try to play a game through a java applet. I just get a box with a small white box in the upper left hand corner that has triangles in it like a gif that can't find its image to load on a web page. I have tried the advance settings in IE 5.5, all of the java stuff is enabled and I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Java 2 Platform Standard Edition v 1.3.1 and Java 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition, v 1.3.1. I appreciate any feedback I can get on this.
Thanks,
Adam

I am having the same exact problem and I wondered how you fixed it. Please help--it's driving me crazy!

Applet running problem in ie 6.0 under Windows XP

Applet running problem in ie 6.0 under Windows XP
I have a PC running Iternet Explorer 6.0 running under Windows XP. I have developed an applet using JDK 1.3 which is running fine with applet viewer , but it is not running in ie. I have installed Netscape navigator and Opera 5. the applet is running fine in both of these browsers but somehow it is not running in IE.
Later on I upgraded my JDK to 1.4. It also displays use Java2 (V1.4.1) for <applet> (requires restart) tck marked in Advance section under Tools-Options menu of IE.
I have also tried and set various options in my Control Panel�s Java Plug-in but all in vain. I have searched the sites for this solution but no one answers specifically.
I know it�s a small problem due to discarded JVM in IE under Windows XP but give me solution for that.
Thanks in Advance

Dear I have the same problem .
Applet running problem in 6.0 . Enen I have installed the latest Jre 1.5.
What should I do. I am fedup with this problem.

I have two computers - iMac and PC. What is the EARLIEST version of Acrobat I can run on each system. I am running 10.9.2 on iMac and Windows 8 on PC. Thanks.

Adobe currently supports Acrobat X and Acrobat XI for Mac and Windows platforms. More details about base system requirements can be found here: Tech specs | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and the changes to these requirements with the product updates can be found here : Overview — Acrobat and Adobe Reader Release Notes. So the earliest version would be Acrobat X and the Latest would be Acrobat XI.
Please let us know if that answers your query.

Is anyone experiencing problems with opening mission control from the desktop. Running mountain lion with parallels 7 and windows 7

is anyone experiencing problems with opening mission control from the desktop. Running mountain lion with parallels 7 and windows 7

I had been having a similar problem on Lion with Safari pdf files despite downloading the latest Adobe Reader XI.
I would constantly get the same messages - There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired. And I would get a blank page when I tried to print the pdf if I tried printing from the Safari web page using File - Print from the top toolbar on my laptop.
Then I came across the grey Safari lozenge with action icons.
This allowed me, without downloading the pdf, to print the pdf file direct from the Safari page by using the Print icon on the grey lozenge that appears centrally three quarters down the screen.
Then I discovered that if I save the pdf using the Save icon from this same grey lozenge on the Safari page I can open and print this pdf version from my desktop.
I've tested it with a couple of different pdf files and these methods work using the grey lozenge icons but the same pdfs files don't work using File - Save As on the Tool Bar.

Why don't java applets run when using Firefox 4.0 in a windows limited user account?

Java applications will not run in Firefox 4.0 when the windows user/process only has limited user access rights. The systems, I see this behaviour on have Windows XP Pro SP3, Firefox 4.0 and JRE 1.6.0_24 installed. The java application will run when when full administrative rights are present. This issue did not occur with the 3.6 firefox version that was previously installed.

The problem also exists with the newer Firefox 4.0.1 and Java 1.6.0_25 versions.
Enabling administrative rights resolves the issue ... though this defeats the purpose of using a limited user.
The underlying bug appears to be in the Firefox java plugin detection code. The issue is related to the detection code requiring write access to the HKLM\SOFTWARE\mozilla.org windows registry key. The limited user only has read access for this registry key. The behaviour was identified using the Sysinternals ProcessMonitor utility ... showed firefox calling an interface to create the registry key and getting an access denied response in the limited user case.
A more targeted workaround for the issue is to grant the limited user write access on the HKLM\SOFTWARE\mozilla.org windows registry key. This avoids the need to grant administrative rights to the user and enables the java plugin to be detected. That is, it works on the 2 XP systems where the java plugin wasn't being detected in limited user accounts.

Java applet runs inside html page when opened with http, but no longer with "Open File" menu, why?

Using the "Open File" menu, file:///Users/234866H/Documents/atom/atomic1.html fails to open the java applet atomic1.class inside atomic.html. However, http://atom.curtin.edu.au/igor/atom/atomic1.html works just fine.
I suspect the problem arose following the recent java upgrade. It is also there on Safari.
Testing Java at http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp yields:
"Your Java is working. Your Java configuration is as follows: Vendor: Apple Inc. Version: Java SE 6 Update 51 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Java Architecture: 64-bit"
However, this is an http test, and not an "Open File" test.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I don't know about this specifically but this is what I would try.
Instead of the string "\u7834\u70C2\u7269\u7A0B\u5E8F\u5458..."
Set the encoding type in the String constructor first...
ie:
new String( "\u7834\u70C2\u7269\u7A0B\u5E8F\u5458...","GB18030");
Here is a little class I whipped up to show the CharSets that are available to you..
public class ShowAllCharSets
ShowAllCharSets()
Map myMap = Charset.availableCharsets();
Iterator iterator = myMap.keySet().iterator();
   while (iterator.hasNext())
      System.out.println("Char set name = "+((String)it.next()));
public static void main(String args[])
   new ShowAllCharSets();
}Then use the preset charset String with the specific encoding already set for your menu items.
GB18030 I picked arbitrarily because it is Chinese and you may have to try another.
Good Luck!

Java applet runs w Firefox.. hangs w Internet Explorer

I know I caused the problem, but have been unable to resolve the issue. Attempting to install Java JRE beta (L), the app would not load because (K) could not be found (as a networked install) and removed. Therefore I removed all references to Java in the Registry.
Java 6.10 has been installed and runs with the Firefox browser. (Going to the Java Test site.)
I have re-installed Windows XP SP3.
I have checked the settings in IE and in Java as suggested by the Java Test site.
I have done several other things but won't add to the issue. Suffice it to say none have worked.
Does anyone have any ideas what else I could do?

No.. I mean http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml , but I will go to the site mentioned after I post this reply.

Troubles with opening attachments when user have restristed priviledge to run executable code only from ProgramFiles and Windows folders.

I try to restrict users from executing any potentialy dangerous files. So according to Windows policies I set. Users can run any application from Program Files, Program Files (x86), Windows and all users' desktop folder. Users have no permission to write anything in this folders. When user duble clicks for example *.doc document on his desktop - document opens with MS Word just fine. But when user try to open this document from e-mail attachment directly (selecting open with MS Word, instead of saving) - he sees an error - "This action is restricted by local policy. Ask your system administrator." (not exact text).
So I want, users able to open attachments from Thunderbird automatically, but not able to run any application or link, except Program Files, Program Files (x86), Windows and all users' desktop folder. How can I get this result?
Thanks in advance.
Serious Diman.
P.S. Sorry for my bad english. It's not my native language.

Thanks for answering.
I found out what was happening.
This strange "bug" affects several computers with Windows 7 Ultimate in my case.
When you create SRP (software restriction policies) it creates two default rules for running programs: windows folder and Program Files folder. Manually I add "C:\Program Files (x86)" in unrestricted locations. BUT Windows and Program Files folder linked in default rules not directly, but through registry keys. And this part seems tricky. You CAN run executables from Program Files. You CAN run executables from Program Files (x86). But if Thunderbird or Firefox try to run MSword, or excel or writer for opening *.doc or *.odt or some other downloaded file - running from Program Files blocked by SRP.
So to resolve this problem you just need to replace rules for undirect paths like %HKLM/software/microsoft/windows ... etc% with direct ones, such as "C:/Windows" and "C:/Program Files/". After this all works fine. Attachments and downloaded files opens automatically without problems.

I have a 27"iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. and Windows 7 on parallels 6. My dvd player will not play DVDs. Has anybody else had this problem.

My DVD player will not play any DVDs. Anybody else have this problem.

This has been sorted.Got a new iMac 27" with Lion already installed and DVD player works. Thank you to all who replied. Meloc

Java Applet HelloWorld "Getting Started With Applets" example not working

Hi there,
It's been ages since I ran my Linux CentOS boot of Linux but I am going through the official oracle java applet tutorials, just every time I try and run the "Hello World" applet in Firefox 17.0.3 and I am running the Iced Tea thing for java applets.
Every time I try and run the example from the following code:
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
public class HelloWorld extends JApplet
// called when the user enters the html page:
public void init() // keep apps within the init() function very small as per the http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/applet/appletMethods.html
    try{
      SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(new Runnable()
        public void run()
       JLabel myLabel = new JLabel("Hello World");
       add(myLabel);
        } // end running the application
      }); //end of swing invokeand wait
    } catch (Exception error){ // end user running the app in page
       // System.err.println("GUI didn't work on initial run");
}It keeps bringing up the error "Start: Applet not initialized" I did google that basic error and from what I found I should consult the JavaConsole, I know the console was removed from the Firefox menu quite a while ago. So went to find a way of loading it using the IcedTea one but it keeps bringing up a load of errors in even trying to run that.
Is there anyway of sorting this out? I mean I have even tried installing the one on the oracle website, the plain JDK but nothing seems to work.
Is there anyone that can help me get applets working? I was even going to go as far as to reinstall my distro but I want to avoid that as much as possible.
Thanks and I look forward to any replies,
Jeremy.

in the Getting Started with Java DB tutorial they
tell u how to set ur "DERBY_HOME" (what is that?).
once i press enter after typing this command:
set DERBY_HOME=D:\Java\Java
Phonebook\javadb in my command prompt do i get
any message or does it just go to the next line?type env or set or whatever in the command line to see what your environment variables are set to
they also tell u how to set ur "JAVA_HOME" (what is
that?). The Java installation you want to use
in their example they give u this: set
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\j2se1.4.2_05but in my java folder i have jdk1.6.0 and jre1.6.0
but no j2se1.4.2_05, so which 1 must i choose?It's up to you. I'd go with 1.6
also once ive done this: set
DERBY_HOME=D:\Java\Java Phonebook\javadb this
set JAVA_HOME=D:\Program
Files\Java\jre1.6.0 and this set
PATH=%DERBY_HOME%\bin;%PATH% and then type
sysinfo to verify that the variables were set
correctly i get these errors: 'D:\Java\Java' is
not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file and '""'
is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file any help would
really be appreciated because this is really killing
me!you need to set your path variable - so something like:
set PATH=C:\Program Files\Java\j2se1.4.2_05\bin

Firefox allows Java Applet with elevated permissions

I ended up with a virus on Friday when I selected "View" on an HTML attachment from the GMail web interface. The attachment started up java and proceeded to install the malware "Desktop Security 2010" and make changes to my system startup. I'm wondering how this happened and how to prevent it. My java security settings (Java Control Panel->Security->Certificates->Trusted Certificates) only lists Akamai Technologies and JavaFX as trusted certificates. Shouldn't that mean that I get prompted if any one else signs an applet that tries to run outside the sandbox? What else do I need to do to make sure that NO java applets run with elevated permissions?
I've disabled java via an add-in in the meantime, but what do I need to do to secure my browser properly?
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== I selected "view" on a virus-infected email attachment in gmail

Хорошо. Am now able to enter Cyrillic font into my applet. HOWEVER, another issue remains: After pressing enter to process input, new window opens as expected with correct information displaying in window EXCEPT for drop-down menu bar that should display in green square of open window. http://www.lesbaileyev.com/Project/RFvstem.html I will open another suport question for this new development.

>
I'm unable to understand the archieve="accessdriver.jar">It is archive, archive (only one 'e'). These things need to be correct for any hope of working!
And while we are on the subject, the word is 'connect', not 'coonect'.
But anyway, what I meant by accessdriver.jar, is simply the Jar that contains the sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver ..
Oh, wait a second. I did not look at that classname closely, and did not realise it was a 'sun' class. It is more common to add a 3rd party DB driver class (AFAIU) than use a 'Sun proprietary API' class to access a DB.
>
As far as security file is concerned i will first try to run the applet so that it is able to create and query
data from my ms access database after than i can modify it.>You seem very confused about accessing the DB. Noting that your original code uses a hard coded (file based) path to the DB, I can tell you you are wasting time attempting to access it that way. That will never work when the applet is on the web, since the File path will point to a place on the end user's PC file system that does not have a DB installed! The applet will need to be redesigned.
I recommend you download and install a local server like tomcat, which can more accurately reflect a web environment. Then do all your applet testing via the local server.
1st, before you bother with the applet, you should organise how to access the DB (at least tot the point of doing a simple query) in a web page. Before going any further. This will ensure that the DB is set-up correctly and accessible to a sand-boxed applet.
Your comment about "..will first try to run the applet.. (before) ..modify it". If it is a security matter, it will need to be signed before you can even query the DB. If the applet can be sand-boxed (probably the case) then don't sign it at any time.

Compiling Java Applets

Hi!
I've had some trouble running Java Applets on my server. After some debugging I have found that it maters how and/or where they are compiled.
I have taken a simple HelloWorldApplet and compiled on my server. Then when I try to access it from a client computer all I get is a grey box with no error message.
I then found an applet at the Java home page where it was possible to download the .CLASS file. When I copied this file to my server it works just fine.
So my question is: Should not a simple applet work, just because it's compiled with the latest Java Edition??
The thing is though, when I check the box under Tools > Internet Options > Advanced, Use Java 2 v1.4.1 for <applet> every applet work just fine. But shoulden't a simple Java Applet run without this option?
I run a MS IIS5 server and use MS IE as a browser.
Please help me.
/Fredrik

Should not a simple applet work, just because it's compiled with the latest Java Edition??Don't need to compile/recompile using the latest JDK since each version is fully compatible with old versions but for advanced ones must to use "target" parameter. As example, if one applet is using regular expression API, formerly Regex API, must to compile this way:
javac -target 1.4 yourSource.java .
For simple applets as mentioned in your post, formerly AWT applets, don't need special care, they will work fine in any JVM, any browser any platform since this is the most primitive JVM (1.1) but in some OS the vendor supressed JVM..M$, so you must to use Java plug-in. It just supplies a Java virtual machine to run your applets/applications and in this sense becames the "native" VM. This is the better choice at all that warrants the best performance among VM's.
At this moment you can be sure your OS was deployed without Java support of course and there aren't server constraints (applets run in client side) so maintain Sun's JVM as default and there will be no presentation faults. Moreover M$ JVM has a dangerous security bug and also is obsolete version.
Regards.

Embedded Java Applet NullPointerException in JSPX pages

We have a ADF web application programmed in JDeveloper 11g (11.1.2.4.0), which was migrated over from a 10g (10.1.3.5.0) project
Within the application, occasionally, we need to call a Java Applet which is placed in a public_html/applet folder. The jars show up in the Web-Content tab of the ViewController in the Application Navigator, just like it did in 10g.
The applet tag looks like this:
<applet height="100" width="100" code="applet.SetupApplet" archive="applet/SSetupApplet.jar">
            <param name="debug" value="true"/>
</applet>
I've also tried calling the applet with the Java deploy applet script
<trh:script source="http://java.com/js/deployJava.js"></trh:script>
    <trh:script>
        var attributes = {code:'applet.SetupApplet',
        archive:'applet/SSetupApplet.jar'};
        var parameters = {} ;
        var version = '1.6' ;
        deployJava.runApplet(attributes, parameters, version);
   </trh:script>
When I navigate to the login.jspx page that has this tag, it pops the Java Console open, but doesn't actually run the applet (or show the prompts to allow using the Applet). Instead, the applet is shown with an error and the error says "NullPointerException". I've double-checked the path and it's correct (with incorrect paths, I get a ClassNotFoundException). In the application server logs, I see the following error:
<Warning> <Socket> <BEA-000449> <Closing socket as no data read from it on IPADDRESS during the configured idle timeout of 5 secs>
I created a normal .jsp file that's outside the ADF Faces Context in the applet folder. Navigating to it with the same applet tags does have the Java applet run without the socket error. The same code in 10g works fine.
Is there anything I'm missing?
Thanks.

Hi,
this is how I did it in 11g R1: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/71-adf-to-applet-communication-307672.pdf
