Pogo games incompatible with Leopard?

My wife's G4 running 10.4.11 will not power up. She played Pogo games on that machine with no problems. She tried to play games on her Pogo account with my G5 running 10.5. She can get around on their site but when trying to play games it will not load games. The screen says "Games Loading" but they don't. After a while the screen goes away.
I have searched for answers and have tried some of the "fixes" to no avail (delete caches and such).
G5 10.5.8
Safari 4.0.3
Java J2SeE 5.0

Do you have the latest version of Adobe's Flash Player?

  • IDVD version incompatible with Leopard?

    Purchased Leopard OS and installed it in my Mac mini. Had no installation problems and all software updates installed with no grief. Leopard upgraded iLife components to v 5.x and they all appear to work except iDVD. The Leopard installation disk seems to have installed a version incompatible with Leopard OS. "You cannot use this version of the application iDVD with this version of Mac OS X."
    Any suggestions on how to make iDVD work? Yes, I know that I am the last one on the block to update to Leopard. I really am an old-timer and buying a new Mac is not an option. I didn't spot a post on this subject but if I missed it please direct me to it.

    There is the assumption that Apple applications would not be made obsolete by upgrading the OS. e.g. Even AppleWorks which is no longer supported by Apple still works with Leopard OS.
    Aaaah, the hidden costs of upgrades...
    You can right click and get info on the program itself and you should be able to determine if your version should work with Leopard. My iDVD is v7.0.4 Only version 6 or 7 are compatible with Leopard.
    Appleworks has many versions, but if I google: leopard appleworks problems - I get way too many hits to feel good about continuing to work with it. Pages seems to be able to be able to open .cwk files and they need to be converted.
    A lot of people think that iLife is free, but it's actually part of the purchase price for the computer. Some people want to try installing iLife 09 on the older OS and come across the same issue in reverse because 09 requires Leopard.
    In addition, iMovie 09 doesn't work on PPC Mac's even if they are running Leopard.
    Apple's price for iLife 09 is $79 and they had a bundle for both Leopard and iLife for $169 but it's too late for you to get the bundle.
    If there is any easy (inexpensive) way to get iDVD to work on my Mac mini, please let me know.
    Amazon has iLife '09 on sale for $56.49

  • IDVD incompatible with Leopard

    I recently upgraded to OS 10.5 Leopard and to my surprise iDVD reports that it is incompatible with the version of OS (iLife '05). However when I went to look at buying iLife '08 I find that iMovie has a minimum requirement of G5 processor or greater. So if I upgrade to fix iDVD I will break iMovie (or at the very least I am paying for software I can not use)
    So I can't upgrade and I can't go back. I guess the middle ground is iLife '06 but that does not seem to be readily available anywhere and where I did find it they want $99 which is more expensive than iLife '08.
    Anyone got some ideas?

    If you purchase iLife 08, you can use the other apps except for iMovie, and you should be able to download iMovie 6 for free. http://support.apple.com/downloads/iMovieHD6

  • Canon CD Tray incompatible with Leopard?

    Hi,
    I'm a "happy" owner of Canon's iP4200 Pixma printer and I've occassionally used it's CD-Tray C for printing CD labels. This worked fine on my PC but ever since I got my Mac Mini with Leopard, I haven't been able to get it to work. Causal printing (even in color) works all fine, but as soon as I set up LabelPrint, pick the right tray, the right disc type and everything, it just coughs up an Error 1001 (claiming the CD isnt in the tray or the tray isnt in there) and it just pushes it out of the printer physically.
    From what I've read, this is a casual problem for Mac owners, but everybody has been able to solve it by printing the actual file to PDF in the past; and then printing the PDF itself. This does not work for me, it gives me the same error (and it does the same when printing from Adobe Photoshop).
    This makes me think it must be either a driver error or something in Leopard; I do have both the latest Leopard (10.5.1), the latest Canon drivers (4.8.3) and the latest LabelPrint (1.6.0)
    I could print the covers over the network from a Windows notebook, but Mac-printer sharing only works with the Apple LaserWriter driver which is both slow and does not of course support any features like CD tray printing etc. Installing the printer with its correct Windows driver and trying to print over it just results in it not working; Windows printer queue is empty and so is the Mac's.
    Do I have to buy another printer? And god **** it, what brand if not Canon? Is it even possible to print properly with Canon on Mac?
    Thanks for any replies!
    Daniel

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    See my printer FAQ*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/printersx.html
    which may have some solutions for you.
    Also note, printing labels for CDs is unwise. It has nothing to do with Mac or PC. Labels shorten the length of CDs. http://www.macintouch.com/cdrfailure.html covers that and much more. Basically for CDs, you should buy CDs that are prepackaged in a jewelcase, and not a spindle, and make your own jewelcase inserts or write on the jewelcase exterior the contents of the CD if you want to prolong the media life.

  • 1st gen iPod incompatible with Leopard?

    I have a 5GB gen. 1 iPod which still works fine. However, when I hook it to a Mac running OS 10.5.7, it slowly goes to heck, taking the whole FireWire buss down with it. I then have to power everything off, unplug power to all FW devices, and reboot to get the Mac running again. Any external disk drives then need to be repaired with Disk Utility before use. This happens with three Macs, a new Mini, a white MacBook, and a G4 Cube. With a G4 tower running 10.4.11, no problem.
    I tried repartitioning and restoring the iPod with ver. 1.5 software, which iTunes says is current. No difference. Anybody else run into this, or have an ancient iPod working with Leopard?

    I have a 10GB clickwheel iPod that I've been trying to update just to use for some simple mp3 spoken word files and a handful of songs. Not trying to load entire iTunes library on it. Is the clickwheel not compatible with 10.4.11? I've used disk utility to erase and reformat my iPod, used iTunes to restore several times, and unchecked almost all my music just to se if I can get a handful of files to update onto my iPod. I don't care that it's not sleek and brand new, but I certainly hope I can use it still for basic stuff. I'm wondering if it's no longer supported by iTunes 8+ and OS X 10.4+. Does anyone know for sure and can provide an answer? If it should be supported, anyone have any other suggestions? It seems like it tries to update, but after I see the message that 6 of 100 or 11 of 100 songs have been copied, it just locks up and that is it. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Plug-ins Incompatible with Leopard?

    I've downloaded numerous 3rd party plugs & Garageband (version 4.1.1) doesn't seem to register any of them after dragging the plugs to library>audio>plug-ins>components. I've never encountered this problem with any other OS/version of Garageband. I can live without most of my Waves plugs for awhile since they currently don't support Leopard, but desperately need a deesser and none (including Spitfish) will register. Is this simply just a compatibility issue? If so, are there any known [free] 3rd party developers that support Leopard?
    Thanks.

    I've actually noticed that several third party plug-ins such as various iZotope aren't visible in GB08. The list incldes Guitar Rig 2, which I used with no problem in the previous verision of GB but it's nowhere to be seen in the list of plug-ins in GB08.
    I still use Tiger.

  • Quark 7 incompatible with Leopard?

    I've recently bought a new iMac 24" 2.8Mhz which came pre-installed with Tiger.
    I 'migrated' all my files and apps from my G4 - checked a few out - which worked ok - then upgraded to Leopard.
    When I tried to run Quark 7 I got a message requesting a new validation code (as the app had been moved). I got a new code from Quark and the app appeared to set itself up ok.
    However, when I tried to open an existing Quark file I got the whirling pizza.
    After several minutes I had to do a 'force quit' to exit
    If I try to create new file. I get the page specification box, then a window appears 'Bug Reporter - gathering system information" - then Quark shuts down.
    At this stage I uninstalled Quark and tried to reinstall it from the original disk.
    This time I got as far as inputting the Validation code - which the setup routine appeared to accept - then the installation routine just bombs out.
    I reckon the only option I have is to clear everything. Re install Tiger. Migrate my apps and files again. And see what happens when I try to run Quark in Tiger.
    Upgrading to Leopard - only when I'm sure Quark is working - my be the solution. Then again I might find myself back to square one.
    Anyone else having problems with Quark and Leopard?

    Had originally migrated Quark to my new Intel Mac then upgraded to latest version.
    Uninstalled the lot then downloaded latest complete package from Quark website.
    Problem solved

  • What games come with in Leopard ?

    Hi,
    Can anybody tell me what games come with Leopard and where are they kept please?
    Thx George UK

    Games are definitely one area where OS X comes up short. There's always the tile game widget that comes with dashboard (if you like that sort of thing). There are also some pretty good game widgets on the apple downloads site (including minesweeper, mastermind and even some simple arcade games).

  • Pogo games will not load with firefox 3.6

    1 Mar 11 firefox automatically upgraded to version 3.6.14, This version is incompatible with running pogo games. I have two machines that I needed to re-install firefox 3.5.17 in order to run pogo

    I too have the same problem. I went back to an older version of firefox in order to get my pogo games to work. I would imagine that any site using the java applets will not work with firefox. There is something in the new update that causes the applet to crash or break when started in the newest full version of firefox. I hope they get this bug fixed soon, I like to keep my software as up to date as possible.

  • 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+

  • Firefox 4 does not work with Pogo games at all!!! Plus do not like the layout at all either. This version really sucks!

    Firefox 4 does not work on any Pogo games, neither did the latest version of 3.6.14 and since downloading the beta version of 4 I've had nothing but troubles and pages either not loading or taking forever to load. I do not like this version at all.

    After trying everything else under the sun, I finally figured out that the problem was with the Adblock Plus program. Some of my games were not loading at Pogo.com, like Boggle, even though I made sure to clear all the caches and made sure my pop-up blocker wasn't on, the games still wouldn't work. Then I read something about Adblock Plus could be blocking some applets causing some games not to load properly and that's exactly what the problem was. The Adblock Plus preferences are found under the Tools button.I could've just disabled the Adblock Plus, but that made me a little nervous, so I just unblocked the items that were for the specific game that wouldn't load. To do that, I went to that particular game page where the room choices are. Not sure if you have to have Adblock Plus opened or not, but I did in a seperate tab. Then I hit cntrl + shift + V and it opened up the items that were blocked on Adblock Plus. The items in red are the items that are blocked. I just clicked on those to unblock them and the game loaded like a charm. Hope this info helps.
