New i mac cannot load pogo games

Have a new imac can not load pogo games

I unpacked my new refurbished imac today (my first apple) and of course one of the first sites I went to was Pogo. None of the games I tried would load; they would say they were loading then poof. I googled to try to fix it and nothing I found helped. One site said check your pop-up blocker. I did that and popups were blocked but after I unblocked them it still didn't work. Another site said to update your java. I did that; still no go. I ended up fiddling with the java and exiting Safari and going back on and finally it worked. I'm not sure what exactly did it either. All I can suggest is fiddle with your Java.
Not all the games work though, still can't use Word Whomp or Texas hold 'em.

    So in simple terms, the fix invovled ensuring the nvidia module is loaded before the bbswitch module. I'm not sure about the necessity of the things that follow but the fix may possibly also require removing bumblebee and possibly requires removing nvidia from repos and building the driver downloaded from nvidia.
    This fix could be completely unrelated to the problems I was having with arch but I cannot verify the fix on arch specifically cos I installed every distro under the sun trying to get it all working and I got it to work on a non arch distro.
    So... I'm not sure if I should really mark this a solved because I haven't/can't verify it on arch and technically the solution involved changing to another distro but in fact, I know it has absolutely nothing to do with arch since I saw the same behaviour on 3 other distros. If I have time, I will reinstall arch and verify but for the moment, I have a lot of work to catch up on now that I have a working nvidia driver I can actually use for dev
    Anyway, what I think is going on is there is some bizarre issue with bbswitch that stops the nvidia driver from being found because on the current distro I have installed, if I have no bbswitch, no bumblebee and no nvidia modules loaded or services running etc. I can modprobe the nvidia driver and all works fine. I can then modprobe the bbswitch driver and that works too. IF I modprobe the bbswitch driver first and then modprobe the nvidia driver, I get this error that says the nvidia module cant be found. The location it prints is in some updates directory whcih is odd too because I installed from nvidia source and never installed updates at all and made sure that there were absolutely no repo nvidia drivers or updates etc.

  • Since the new firefox download was done I cannot play pogo games

    Yesterday firefox added download-since then I cannot play pogo games - what do I do

    Mozilla are aware of the issue in Firefox 3.6.14 and are working on a fix, no timescale but they are planning on a quick release. Firefox 3.6.15 will fix the issue with some Java applets not working, which has caused many Pogo games to stop functioning.

  • Firefox is preventing Java from loading Pogo games which require it

    I have just updated to the latest Firefox and now java is being prevented from loading Pogo games which require it. I have unchecked the block popups box and enabled java script but each time I try to load I get a message on the java concol saying permission denied. I went to IE8 (yuck) and the game loaded fine.
    Help please.

    For as much as I spend on membership there I don't need these problems... I DIDN'T update my FF it happened automatically which * me off since i like to wait until all the bugs are gone...

  • I just got a new itouch and cannot load any music or media onto it using the newest version of itunes.

    I just got a new itouch and cannot load any music or media onto it using the newest version of itunes. Every time I try the loading bar at the top says "finding purchased items" and then everything locks down and I have to force quite out of itunes. How do I make this stop???

    Make sure the computer is authorized. From the iTunes menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.

    And try disabling anti virus software and turning off the Firewall, then try syncing with iTunes.
    Disable antivirus software

  • I cannot load certain games which I have always played. This has now been happening for over 2 weeks. Once in a while they will load, but very rarely. I checked my flash, it does allow 3rd party

  • I cannot get pogo games to load

    I need help getting pogo games to load. I am allowing pop ups but the game rooms still will not load.
    I have the latest Java updates and Apple updates on my mac.

    Go to Applications > Utilities > Java Preferences
    1) Click the "Enable applet plug-in and Web Start applications" box
    2) Click the "Advanced" tab and click the "Hide Console" box (Turns on the Java console without display it)
    For future reference, these forums have a powerful search function.  I found the answer by searching Pogo Java.  You could have done the same.  Second, this is a forum for the MacBook Pro Hardware.  Please place future questions in the appropriate forum.

  • What's going on with JAVA, Can't load POGO games?

    Please let me know about JAVA.  I can't get POGO games to load and some chat rooms on other websites won't load ????

    Java 7 updated  for 10.7-10.8
    Released Feb 1, 2013,  fixes 50+ security flaws
    http://www.esecurityplanet.com/patches/oracle-responds-to-java-security-flaws-wi th-50-fixes.html
    Download and install
    https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_mac.xml
    For Java versions 6 and below OS X 10.5-10.6 machines
    Apple supplies their own version of Java. For Mac OS X 10.6 and below, use the Software Update feature available under the Apple menu to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac.
    https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_6.xml
    Java SE 6 End of Public Updates
    After February 2013, Oracle will no longer post updates of Java SE 6 to its public download sites. We highly recommend downloading and installing Java 7.
    If your considering upgrading OS X from 10.6.8 to 10.8 via AppStore to run Java 7
    Be forewarned no PowerPC based programs or driver software will run any longer.
    Check here BEFORE you upgrade OS X!
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Alternatives if you must run Java 7
    If Apple disabled Java 6 in 10.6, and you can't upgrade OS X to 10.8, then your pretty much done with Java in OS X because Oracle won't issue updates for Java 6 anymore.
    However you can install Windows 7 and continue to use Java 7+ there until support for Windows 7 ends in 2020.
    Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?
    If your on 10.6, I very highly recommend the free Virtualbox for the virtual machine software as it gets updates, VMFusion and Parallels have moved on with only 10.7+

  • Cannot access POGO games.Downloaded 6.0 and it says it is not compatible with Java Console 6.0.22, java console 6.0.23 and Norton Toolbar 2010.9.06. Pogo needs the Java Console to run. What version of Firefox can I download to access the pogo games.

    the following is the error message I receive when accessing pogo games:
    The connection was reset
    The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

    The Java plugin (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) is used to run Java applets.<br />
    The Java Console extensions are only needed if you want to check the code for errors and debug Java applets and are not needed for running Java applets as a visitor.

  • I cannot play Pogo games for the past two days, get various reasons and cannot talk to someone who will help

    I am a member of Club Pogo and the past two days have been unable to play the games by using Firefox. The most frustrating thing is that I am old, cannot follow ALL of the instructions and feel I need to talk to a real live person to take me step by step to the proper categories so I can once again play my games without all of this hassle. PLEASE send me a phone number so I can enjoy my games.

    Pogo games usually use the Java plugin.
    Do you otherwise have problems with Java?

  • IPad cannot load large games

    I am having problems loading large games like Smurfs, Snoopy etc. Game will load for awhile then just return to my home screen. Never had such an issue until recently - and I did not change any settings.

    Try closing all apps completely and then see if those games work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
