  • Java plugin for firefox

    Hi All !
    I hope this is the right forum. I have installed java plugin for firefox
    I try the website javatester.org and I get a message saying:
    Your security settings have blocked an untrusted application from running.
    If I understand this correct this is not a firefox message but a java message
    so...
    I have used the java control panel and added the site to the site list
    I also lowered the security settings to medium
    Restarted the browser and tried again but no luck, what am I missing ?
    Appreciate your feedback !
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Did you activate the JDK java for your browser in the java plugin config.

  • [SOLVED] Can't Find IcedTea7 Java Plugin for Firefox

    Hello everybody,
    I'm new to Arch (have used Linux for some time but never got too deep into configurations and such). I've always just used proprietary versions of Java in the past, even on Linux, but now that I have a really cutomized Arch box, I'd like to try and support OpenJDK+IcedTea.
    I followed the Wiki instructions by installing jre7-openjdk, jdk7-openjdk, and icedtea-web-java7 packages. All I want is to link to the plugin for firefox. However, I don't actually see the .so plugin file anywhere, nor do I know how to see where pacman installs things.
    I have a folder /usr/share/icedtea-web/ that contains the files about.jar, about.jnlp, netx.jar, and plugin.jar.
    I remember .jar files are Java archives, but I actually have no idea what to do with them or how to use them as I'm not too familiar with Java (but I do run browser applets using the plugin).
    I apologize for my noobness in this, but can anybody help me figure out how to find or acquire or extract the .so plugin file for firefox?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Great, thank you so much! Actually, it was already fixed before I read your reply, but it's still informative (I wasn't sure how to find file lists for pacman packages).
    I just removed and reinstalled all the java packages and it worked. I might have done it in the wrong order or something when I did it the first time. I wasn't sure if the web test on the Java website checked for the Oracle plugin specifically or just a valid JRE implementation, but it worked, so I guess OpenJDK is working great so far.

  • Java plugin for Firefox and Chromium just not working

    Hi Arch Users
    I have been suffering with the IcedTea-Web for a while now. My banking service (in their stroke of genius) use java on there online service. So a problamatic plugin means that I am not able to use the website while on Linux.
    The issue is not specific to the bank's website. Doing the following is also problematic:
    1. Go to www.java.com
    2. Click on "Do I have Java?"
    3. Click on Verify Java Version
    4. Chromium does nothing after setp 3, Firefox has a small notification (bottom corner) saying Applet Started but nothign really happens (waited for 20min).
    Searching the Forums, showed people with similar problems with an older plugin. An idea I did get was to use the latest branch and compile it. So I changed the PKGBUILD to download the latest using:
    hg clone http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea-web
    ./autogen.sh
    ./configure --prefix=${_jvmdir} \
    --datarootdir=/usr/share \
    --with-jdk-home=${_jvmdir} \
    --with-firefox=/usr/bin/firefox \
    --with-chromium=/usr/bin/chromium
    So currentely my FireFox reports the IcedTeaWeb as: IcedTea-Web Plugin (using IcedTea-Web 1.4pre+r6e622e87010e). Unfortunately the issue remains.
    Please can anyone suggest me a way to overcome this issue. Currentely I have to use VirtualBox to run a browser in Windows (very very painful)!
    A while back I did contact the bank, informing them of the issue was met with a simple "We dont support Linux".
    Cheers!

    Will there be a fix for Firefox's problems with Hotmail. I have gone back to 3.5.9 but mostly I am disappointed by the lack of action on this serious problem where a major and critical feature of a major international website is unavailable in the Firefox browser.

    We've reached out to the Hotmail team and they've determined that this is a bug in their code. (It was masked by a timing issue in 3.5 that was fixed in 3.6.) We've worked with them to develop a fix but they may not have deployed it yet.

  • The Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 10 removed the Java plugin from Firefox 5.0. How do I re-install it?

    I've just installed Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 10 and can no longer run Java Applets from Firefox 5.0

    Dear Craig,
    Macbook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB RAM
    I'm sure that this is 64-bit
    CF 8.0.1 Enterprise Build 3080
    I had moved the Java SE 6 to the top in both Plugin and Applications. The
    correct version is showing in the terminal window. See below.
    Last login: Thu Jun 18 11:27:09 on ttys001
    Beta-4:~ Colin$ java -version
    java version "1.6.0_13"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_13-b03-211)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.3-b02-83, mixed mode)
    Beta-4:~ Colin$
    CF will not start. I have the activity monitor open, and when I start CF you
    see it in the activity monitor for a few seconds as it starts up. When the
    message process is completed in the terminal window CF disappears in the
    activity monitor.
    Any suggestions?
    C
    Hi, Colin,
    My apologies but I forgot to ask 2 questions: (1) What kind of Mac you have
    (Intel or PowerPC)? (2) What version of CF are you running and what installer
    did you choose (8 or 8.0.1, 32-bit, 64-bit, etc.)?
    To start, try the following:
    1. Normally you'd shut CF down first ... but that's not necessary for you
    2. Open Java Preferences again
    3. Select Java SE 6 and move it (drag) to the top spot in both section (Applet
    Plugin and Applications)
    4. Open Terminal
    5. Type java -version (you should see 1.6.0_13 as the new version)
    6. Try to start CF again
    This may not work (I've had issues with it) but it's technically how it's
    supposed to work. With the Java Preferences utility, you're visually setting a
    default JVM (you can do it with commands in Terminal but this is much faster
    and easier).
    If CF still won't start, look for the jvm.config file in your CF application
    folder (try /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin or
    /Applications/ColdFusion8/runtime/bin -- the latter is where a jvm.config file
    is on my machine for a particular version of CF that's installed similar to
    yours). You can override the JVM in this file but, hopefully, that won't be
    necessary!
    Best,
    Craig

  • Haw to get java emblering plugin 0.9.7.5update for Firefox

    Haw to get java emblering plugin 0.9.7.5update for Firefox ?

    Java Embedding Plugin
    You could just download it through macupdate.com or go to sourceforge and get it from there.
    Is there some specific reason you would need java at all?  These days the recommendation is to turn java off -- at a minimum in the browsers or more globally using Java Preferences (in Utilities).  This is due to potentially future trojans finding even more holes in java to sneak through as they did recently with a now-sealed hole utilized by the Flashback trojans.

  • I uninstalled Java get this messag - Missing JAVA? For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Java. Please upgrade to the latest version.

    I am using Windows 7 premium 64-bit. I have uninstalled Java completely through Windows program manager. There is no Java in my list of plugins. Every time I update my plugins I get the following message - "Missing JAVA? For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Java. Please upgrade to the latest version." I cannot find Java anywhere on my computer. Checked every troubleshooting website I can find but there seems to be no solution.

    hello, is this happening on the plugin-check page - https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ ?
    if so, you can probably safely dismiss this warning since it's likely a mistake. when java isn't present, the site will give that warning message though a webpage cannot detect if this because of java being blocked or if it isn't even installed on the system.

  • Why is Firefox unavailable for Android tablets that do not have the Android market?

    I own a Padigital Planet Android tablet, which can not use Google's Android Market, but the only link for Firefox for Android points to Google's Market.

    Hi,
    The Pandigital Planet tablet doesn't meet the minimum requirements for Firefox Mobile support and isn't currently listed as a supported device. For minimum requirements, see
    https://support.mozilla.com/kb/will-firefox-work-my-mobile-device
    Following is a direct link to the application, but note that you may not receive update notices in the future so you'll have to keep Firefox up-to-date manually (if it is even compatible, which I believe it is not). http://bit.ly/fennecftp

  • I cannot get adobe to download most recent flash or reader for Firefox nor can I find a plug-in for either

    After my laptop crashed the second day of class, I had to send it away for repair for 8-12 weeks. I have had to reset it up from scratch and have set-up Firefox. There is a online college math program that they recommend using Firefox with. In the past I have never had a problem with Adobe anything. The program also requires the newest Adobe Flash Player and Reader. I have repeatedly tried downloading, rebooting and restarting the the downloaded .exe files for both (making sure there is only one version running at a time in the file folder and in task manager background). I have used all possible settings for adobe products permissions to work across all firewall, antivirus, web protection, Mozilla and my computer systemin general, even Internet Explorer (Hate it).
    The files download to my downloads file folder through Firefox, however, when I double-click to install them I get the "Do you want to run", "yes", then "Windows smartscreen is unavailable do you want to run anyway, "Yes", then absolutely nothing happens. No wizards, no installing, nothing or I get a "Only one single instance of this file must run." and again nothing. Tried it with nothing open, but the "install" and with the browser open. Neither works. It's usually listed in |Task Manager Background apps, but uses no memory, no CPU, nothing.
    I've also tried contacting the school program's IT division (3 hours) nothing, the program itself's IT department (2 hours and they disconnected me) or the best anyone could offer was use another browser. Can't get the only other option, Chrome, to work on my computer at all! I've tried all Mozilla and Adobe support/knowledge bases/zines, etc... I'm just a Joe schmo not a developer or IT person and a 4 finger typist at best. What I am is 2 weeks behind in my online class and ready to pitch the f#$***g thing across the room. I was able to borrow a laptop from a friend until I got mine back, but that isn't an option anymore.
    Also tried finding an older version - no luck, All support sites keep telling me to find the Firefox "Adobe Plug-in" and just update from there. I have searched all Mozilla Plug-ins, add-ons, etc... but nothing, just download(s) for non-adobe flash players that the math program won't use. No matter How much I try to get it to.
    AUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Help.

    For Flash, could you try downloading the "full" installers from this page:
    https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
    In the first table, there are two rows for Windows: one for the ActiveX control for IE, and one for the plugin for Firefox. You might want to grab both. And try the .msi files instead of the .exe files to see whether those work better.
    Will either of those install?
    It's odd that on a newly rebuilt system your More System Details shows that you have a user.js file, which is an optional settings files used to override your previous session settings. This is not part of the standard Firefox installation, so if you did not create that file yourself, you may want to investigate or delete it. This article has more information on that: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].

  • New Tabs for Firefox will not open unless clicking on a link while browsing.

    To expand on what the question is, Every time I try to open a new tab, it just doesn't work. New tabs only open when I click a link that also opens the page in that link in a new tab. Even when I try to do the same thing through the file menu and Ctrl+T. Otherwise, Firefox is running normally. Yesterday, I downloaded a program called "FLV player" that I knew came with an ask.com toolbar but for some reason, switched ask.com to the homepage for Firefox. After that, I switched the homepage for Firefox back to its default page.

    '''''Ask Toolbar''''' can cause that problem. Uninstall it.

  • Skype Click to Call for Firefox 7 Installation Nig...

    All info as of Oct.08.
    Hi Guys:
      I would like to start by telling you that I'm newbie to this community as not a Skype fan user and haven't used the application since its June version 5.3. I didn't upgrade my Firefox browser on its due time either as rather use Internet Explorer most of the time. All these three are installed on a Windows XP Home SP3 system. 
      Due to some IE7 settings misconfiguration early this week, I decided to use FF6 again while restoring IE to defaults, which means that plugins and toolbars are disabled or uninstalled in the process. After reinstalation and updating Adobe Flash, Java, etc.. noticed that the Skype Toolbar was definetively lost (uninstalled) to IE.
      FF Add-ons Manager was showing the Skype Plugin (still version 5.3) as disabled, not compatible and with no updates available. I then proceeded to upgrade FF to NB7 recently released 27-09, and then applied latest update 7.0.1 released 29-09, but no change to the Skype Plugin upon clicking on update all add-ons and plugins.
      BTW, release notes for this FF update 7.0.1 states: "Fixed a rare issue where some users could find one or more of their add-ons hidden after a Firefox update"... making me more confused and to look deeper into FF support, but with no success. I also tried FF Add-on Compatibility Reporter to no avail.
      Therefore, it was time to go to Skype and as I usually first learn about latest changes, opened on (blogs.skype.com/garage/windows/) first, to find that there were two releases (an update to V5.5.119 (which I did) and an upgrade to a new build 5.6) on the same date (29-09) of FF's update to fix "hidden add-ons" - what a coincidence to add confusion -.
      In both versions' release notes you can read that changes include: "Updated Skype Click to Call browser plugins and the addition of support for Firefox 7"... but no further explanation. Sorry guys but it was at that moment when I learned about that "Click to Call" name (formerly known as Skype Web Toolbars) which totally different from what I was searching for, making me do some more clicks to search and understand the difference between the installers provided.
      I believe (and suggest) that if in that blogpost 29-09 in respect of the 5.5 update, the poster (Raul Liive) would have included a link to the Click to Call support page, it would have been a lot more easier for Firefox users to update their Skype installation, even though, it is not true that Click to Call "is automatically installed in Mozilla Firefox" as suggested in that support page. It only installs in Internet Explorer. In order to also install it in Firefox and/or Chrome, you must download its installer from that page.
      At least this was my experience which could be taken as a quick reference - Installation Troubleshooting Guide (Provided "AS IS" and subject to Mods' approval):
    - Opened Skype 5.3 and clicked on the Updater to get version 5.5.119 installed.
    - Opened IE7 and verified that new Click to Call 5.6.0.8312 was present in my toolbar.
    - Opened FF7 and verified that old Skype Plugin 5.3 did not changed. Tried to update it again from within the application with no results.
    - Opened Control Panel > Add or remove programs, and verified Skype 5.5.119 correctly shown, but Click to Call was not. There it was still showing "Skype Toolbars 5.3.7280".
    - Closed all applications and proceded to remove Skype Toolbars from Control Panel.
    - Restarted the system and opened CP, IE and FF to verify Skype Toolbars successfully removed.
    - Optionally - ran CCleaner.
    - Downloaded Click to Call Installer and ran it to install it in both, IE and FF, which done   successfully.
    - Opened CP to verify it was then showed correctly as "Skype Click to Call 5.6.0.8312".
    - Opened FF to verify it now shows the plugin correctly as above with no imcompatibility 
    warnings. Made a test call successfully. Did same from IE.
    *Notice: Please note that there is actually only one Click to Call installer (v5.6.0.8312) available at Skype.com, no matter what Skype (supported) version or browser (support for IE, FF and/or Chrome only) you are using. Also notice that when you open your browser for the first time after installing CtoC, a new Skype advertising tag will be opened... Don't worry, it will do it just once. A second advertising window will be opened after your Skype app opens when you make a call from your browser... at least it happened on my first test call and don't know if same for further calls (free account).
      Sorry guys - long story - but hope this to be of any assistance to the community.
    Cheers,
    RickCP

    Would also add that after doing the above troubleshooting you find any problem with your Click to Call feature just installed, or simply need to install or activate the plugin to another browser (one of the 3 supported for Windows) you are also using, you can run your Click to Call Installer again to choose between the following options provided:
    Change:
    Lets you change the way features are installed (and on what browser are to be installed).
    Repair:
    Repairs errors in the most recent installation by fixing missing and corrupt files, shortcuts and registry entries.
    Remove:
    Removes Click to Call from your computer.
    Cheers,
    RickCP

  • Java plugin causing Firefox to crash

    I installed the newest Java plugin today and it asked me to restart Firefox. Now it crashes as soon as I open it. It will not open in Safe Mode because it won't stay open for more than half a second. I tried re-installing it and restarting my computer and it's having the same problem. I can't open about:crashes because it won't stay open.

    Make sure that you've installed the 32 bit Java version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.
