Java/font/yahoo games

I recently upgraded to the latest version of Tiger.
Now, when I go to Yahoo Games (specifically Word Racer) the font that is used in the java window that opens is unreadable. Previously, (on Panther) the only browser that would display it clearly was Opera, but now it is the same in any browser that I have tried. (Safari, IE, Opera, Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, Omniweb, iCab).
Anyone know how to remedy?
Need my Word Racer fix!
Maybe I'll just switch to decaf and see if that helps......
Thanks,

We have the same problem in literati. Explorer 5.2 on the old G 3 I-mac is the only browser that works. If safari doesn't work maybe we could call Bill and beg. Our new intel i-mac will not run explorer 5.2.

Problem with java and yahoo games

hello everyone,
i have a mac 10.6.8 with java SE 6 1.6.0_33-603-424 and i have problems with yahoo games.... anyone can help me please, i have a mac 10.6.8 with java SE 6 1.6.0_33-603-424 and i have problems with yahoo games.... anyone can help me please

So here is what comes to pass.
Recall this started as a Lion Safari/5+ environment that SU took to version 6.
Two weeks ago I just updated Flash Player. Today I fire up Java Preferences and I am told that I need to download Java. Did so, intentionally hit the "factory reset" button and then installed the Flash Player from teh Adobe site. The most recent install suggests automatic update but I choose "ask first."
Restart Safari and we seem to be in order
Thanks

Tiny font in Yahoo games... please help, I'm baffled

I am running Snow Leopard and until a couple of days ago, I played lots of
cards in Yahoo games.   Then I went to play cards and the font in the
games lobby was unreadably small.   This only occurs in this specific situation...
in all other applications the font is perfectly fine.    Since this version of
Snow Leopard only allows me to update software, I'm not sure what else to do.
It seems as if it would be a Java issue, but I don't know what to do about it.
Help if you can, please

did you try online chat and see if they can shed any light on it?

Yahoo Games Font un-readable

Hey all, I have no idea what has happened to my safari but when I try to go to a yahoo games page, such as pool. I end up getting some weird font and the game is totally unplayable. how can I change the font that the safari uses while using java to I can read it?
heres a screen shot of what Im talking about:

any help would be most appriciated
notes: I also tried to update my java and that didnt work.

Alexander,
If you're using Tiger 10.4.8 or later you should have upgraded to Java for Mac OS X 10.4 Release 5. If you're unsure which Java version you have, open Terminal and enter at the prompt:
java -version
If the latest version is installed you should see: java version "1.5.0_07"
One thing you might try for the font trouble... Under Utilities > Java > J2SE 5.0, double-click on Java Preferences and make sure the "Smooth all text in Java applets" box is checked.
If you have the earlier Java 1.4.2 version installed, there's a similar font smoothing check box in its preferences.
See if that has any effect... Good luck!

How do I get my security settings to allow access to yahoo games I have been playing for years and now can't play with this P.O.S. update 26.0 and Java update?

I recently updated my Firefox browser to version 26.0 and my Java to version 7 update 51 and now I can't access any of the Yahoo games I have played for years. I get a box that says "your security settings have blocked an untrusted application from running. Also, the box has two other lines; Name: ygames_applet and Location: http://yog10.games.sp2.yahoo.com. After all this time, this browser and my Chrome browser both give me this crap when I try to log in to yahoo games.

Java applet window blocking yahoo games

not a devloper, but I really need some help handling this java problem. when I log onto yahoo games, bar that says "java applet window" blocks the bottom portion of the screen. how can I get rid of this?

Java update (3 days ago) won't let me play yahoo games anymore. I've tried moving java security to Medium and adding web address as "permissive use". Still nothing. I'd really like a fix. Really, apple? What's your beef with yahoo games?

Installed Java update three days ago. Now, can't play yahoo games as it's now blocked by security settings. Already have tried moving Java security to Medium and adding yahoo.games.com (including web address of game) as a "Permissive exception". Also tried removing java and installing older version. Still nothing. Really Apple?!? What's your beef with yahoo games?

csnorth,
all of the older update versions of Java SE 7 can be found here. If 7u45 also didn’t work with your Yahoo! games, you can choose from any of the even older versions there as well.

I have Java set up as a plug in but cann't get into yahoo games. Where is the firefox button when I have the browser open? Only button I see gives me close, resize,

I have java installed and properly working as a plug in. Why can I not get into Yahoo games and play Card Games? Where is the firefox button when I have the browser open? Only button that looks like anything for firefox allows me to restore, move, size, minimize, maximize, and close. That button is top left hand corner location.

I recently purchased a second hand new macbook air, although it was second hand to me the previous owner had never actually turned it on.
Something doesn't make sense here, though I'm not saying the previous owner is lying....
Time to send your serial # to iTS and let them see what's happening here.

Unable to increase display size in Yahoo Games Java applet; zoom doesn't work.

My father is vision impaired. He play texas hold em in Yahoo Games. Once the game java applet launches, he needs to make the card display larger. I can't find any way to do this. he's using a PC with Windows 7.

It's unclear if the problems discussed happen after OJC compiles, or Javac compiles, or both. We have uncovered a bug in the compilation of jspx files using OJC. There is a chance that this bug fix will fix the problems mentioned. Email me at keimpe.bronkhorst AT oracle.com if you want to try out a patched OJC. This is not an OJVM fix, so if you compile with Javac, I can't help you at this time.

Upgraded Java: Yahoo games won't load

Just upgraded to the very latest Java (JRE-7U51) and each time I try to play an online Yahoo game, I get the following message:
Application Blocked by Security Settings
Name ygames_applet
Location http://yog34.games.sp2.yahoo.com
Your security settings have blocked an untrusted application from running
I've uninstalled it and re-installed it, but it's the same thing each time. Anyone know what I can do about this?

Roger Barre
Sorry to hear you are experiencing this problem with Java. As for Java, avoid the new update (Java 7 Update 51). You can uninstall Java and then revert back to the last working version (Java 7 update 45) to get apps that use java working again.
I would suggest and I hope my post won't get taken down from Apple for advertising. Google "AppCleaner" a Mac must have! Use this utility to remove java and all of it's component files from your Mac. You can then revert to the last working version of java by running the JRE-U45 installer.
Life is good again

HT5559 java is blocking yahoo games for security reasons- how can i change this

I updated to java 7 and now my yahoo games will not work, how do i fix this?

i updated to java 7 and now my yahoo games will not work, how do I fix this?

kathieaross,
click on the Java pane in System Preferences. When the Java Control Panel window opens, click on the Security tab, and set your Security Level to Medium — that will allow “untrusted” applications (i.e. those without certificates from a trusted authority) to run. Press the Apply button in the lower-right corner to confirm the change, then press the OK button to close the window.
Apparently your Yahoo! card games don’t have certificates associated with them, which is why the default security setting of Java SE 7 Update 51 didn’t allow them to run.

Why won't the new java update JDK 7 run on yahoo.games?

I have OS X 10.9 and am unable to run Yahoo.games with the new java JDK 7 update...can anyone help?

That's really up to Yahoo. Why are you posting on the 10.6 forum?

I cannot access Yahoo Games on my Mini after the latest Java upgrade. This has happened before. Any ideas? Thanks!

When I try to access Yahoo Games Bridge the system will not allow me to download the applets necessary. This has happened before after a software update and it is a complete pain. I can go back to a old version of Java but the security is apparently not good. Any ideas? Thanks!
Jack

Thanks lllaass but I have enabled Java. I did manage to get into the site by setting the Java security level to the lowest setting. There was a warning but it did let the site load after I excepted the risk. Thanks again!
