Problems playing a game on Pogo

Pogo says that I need the current version of flash player to play the game. Well I downloaded the latest version and i still cannot play the game.
When i went to the screen on Adobe for flash player verification it said it's not installed. I need help.

"User-Agent Strings"
That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook and Pogo can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

After installing Java 7 on my iMac OS X Lion I cannot play certain games in pogo? Please, help me.

Oracle's released update 7u11 which fixes the exploit.

When i click to play a game in pogo, the pop-up is so large, cannot play it. when i bring it in, it cuts off parts of the game, unable to play like this

When I play a game in pogo, the pop-up is so large, I have tried pulling the screen in, but that doesn't help, as it cuts off a lot of the playing area. Any ideas on how to resolve this.

firefox is the latest, or so it says. Always keep flashplayer up to date. Thanks for trying.

Time Warner cable connected me to Worzilla cause I could not play my games on pogo, now it willonly let me into certain ones. Whats the problem?

Time warner cable talked me into conecting to worzilla because I could not conect to my games at Pogo.com. Now I can only get into some games and not all and they put my pogo accounct on facebook and I don't want it there what do I do. I'm ready to delet everything and reinstall.

You are waiting for an apology to something that happened over a year ago? Really? This is why there is a manager in the store. You have a problem with an employee you speak to the manager. Just like you did on the phone. You would have gotten your apology in July 2013.
Here is the information about your upgrade fee.
Upgrade Fee
It is because when you have a problem you (customers) go running to the store and want to take up the time of the reps to fix it. Other carriers have third parties that deal with technical support and those locations are few and far between. VZW provides this directly through their stores. Also, when you subsidize a $650 and pay $200 VZW has to pay $400. Your monthly service fee doesn't begin to scratch the surface of paying that back. Not with all the money that is put into the network and its improvements.
Then over a year later you get someone on the phone who apologized and offered to waive the fee on your phone and you didn't take it? That offer won't come down the pike again.
One thing you should know is that all these employees are people and as such they sometimes come off cross. I doubt that you speak to everyone so sweetly all the time. Cut them a little slack and put this whole thing behind you after 15 months. Either upgrade with VZW or move on.

Firefox won't let me play certain games on Pogo WHY?

Certain games on Pogo will not play. Firefox closes it before it can open . I tried updated the new version of firefox and it wouldn't let me do that either.

Java security actually changed last year, and I'm surprised Pogo is giving you that message in 2015. Hopefully your connection isn't hacked and diverting you to a malicious site.
Could you check this reply from March 2014 about that blocked dialog to see whether this helps with the game:

Problem playing facebook games , being asked to download flashplayer and i have but still cant get on the games

befor downloading firefox i play games on facebook and now i cant play these games , it asks me to download flashplayer and i have done so but still cant play them

You are downloading the Flash installer, which I think itself downloads another installer, which may again download something else that has to run. Adobe's installer is one of the worst pieces of software on the PLANET.
That said, the problem is that you are not actually running the installer and letting it update Flash. Doing so will force you to quit Safari in the process.
Go look for whatever Adobe downloaded to your Downloads folder and run it.

Open GL Problem in Windows Games

I have a problem playing Windows Games under Boot Camp in the native screen resolution of my imac (1600 x 1200.) The graphic card is the ATI Radeon HD 2600
When I try to play Doom 3 and try to set the screen resolution to maximum an annoying error occures: In Doom 3 after restarting the game the screen resolution is back to 640x480 and there is no way to get it startet in 1600x1200. In Medal of Honor the game crashs with a "Could not load open gl" error message. Same error comes in Return to Castle Wolfenstein.
When I set the screen resolution down to 1280x800 everything works fine in all three games and I can play.
I think there is a problem with the drivers from ATI in connection with the HD 2600 and Open GL based games. I first got the error with the patched ATI Radeon drivers that can be found on the net, so I managed to use the original ATI driver from ATI's website. No effect. The error is still there.
Does anyone no, what the problem is? I would be very happy to play the games in high res again. (My Dell PC boosted these games with a resolution of 1920x1200, so this hurts a little bit...)

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
you can not use a resolution that is higher than the native resolution of your iMac display, which is 1680x1050.
Even if only one of the numbers is higher as the native resolution (in this case the 1200, while the 1600 will fit) this resolution is not useable.
Therefor only the next lower resolution can be used.
Maybe with tweaking some settings of Doom 3 (and the other games alike) following these hints http://www.techspot.com/tweaks/doom3/doom-2.shtml you might be able to get the 1680x1050 resolution.
Regards
Stefan

IMac enters sleep mode while playing Blizzard games

About every 20 seconds my iMac enters sleep mode while playing Blizzrard games. When I click the mouse or touch a key on the keyboard the iMac wakes up and the game is still running. This has been happening more frequently over the past six weeks. Now it occurs every twenty seconds. I have turned off my sleep mode settings, reset the SMC, loaded the TechTool Deluxe and ran a diagnostic. When TechTool Deluxe came to testing the video ram the utility crashed. I ran TechTool Deluxe a second time and it crashed again while testing the video ram. My iMac only has this problem playing Blizzard games. I have contacted Blizzard and they don't have an answer. Is it my video card? I have the NVIDIA GeForce GT 130 512 MB graphics card. Any help would be appreciated.

Likely is the Video card, but...

I recently encountered a problem playing POGO games via firefox.

on June 18 Pogo changed the programing on its home page. Immediately after those changes were installed, I was unable to play the embedded games on Pogo when using Firefox BUT was able to play them using Internet Explorer. Here is what I learned today. I have a Zone Alarm tool bar on both IE and Firefox. In both I block website tracking of my computer usage. However, ONLY after I strop blocking facebook connect tracking, can I continue to use Firefox to play those games. I still have facebook connect blocked in IE and can play the games anyway. So, why is it that this setting only prevents Firefox from allowing game play?

What does this setting?
If this is a specific ZoneAlarm setting to block the cookies of web pages (domains) then you need to contact ZA for advice if it behaves differently in IE than in Firefox.

After the last update from firefox I cannot play games in pogo how do i fix this?

I have been using firefox since I got my new imac. Since about 2 weeks ago when firefox updated I can no longer play games on pogo. How do I fix this problem?The pogo web page loads but it won't let me load the games.

I had the same issue. I reinstalled FireFox 3.6.10 and that solved it for me. You can get 3.6.10 here:

Problem playing on POGO since I upgraded. Says there are viruses on this browser

I was playing on POGO and tried to load a game. The message came back from POGO that there were viruses on this browser and because of the risk it could not open the game

There were problems with Firefox 3.6.14 that prevented Pogo games from working, this was not due to viruses. This was fixed in Firefox 3.6.15
What is the full message you get when you try to play a game?

Is the new verson fixed to play games on pogo

after i updated firefox about a month ago i had problems playing games on pogo. i had to install an earlier version i want to know if the problem is fixed with the latest version.

I'm on Firefox 7 and it broke several games in Pogo. I also updated Java which didn't fix it either. 2 games especially have problems that I know of 1 Sweet Tooth, 2 World Class Solitaire. There could be more but these I've bumped into after update.

Problem with MSI Nvidia GeForce 6800 LE (128MB) when playing 3D games

Games problem
I have bought a new MSI Nvidia GeForce 6800 LE (128MB) a couple of months ago and have been have loads of trouble when playing games.
In windows, the graphics card works fine. The computer never crashes and everything is speedy. Movies on DVD, Xvid, Divx all play fine without problem, the most I get is the occasional freezing and then windows will be normal again.
The problem arises when I try to play a 3D game. When I load up the game it goes into the menu screens ok, the computer will load up the 3D engine and it will play for around a minute nice and crisp then the screen will go blank and computer will lock up. Then all the drives will go quiet and the computer will make 3 beeps with the PC speaker. Pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL at this point does nothing, nor does the reset button. I have to turn the power on and off.
I really have no clue why this is happening, I have taken the covers off and kept it in a cool area, hoping that it was something to do with over heating, my computer is not overly cluttered and this has made no difference.
I have also unplugged the CDR, DVDR, USB ports, one Hard drive (storage) to see if it was something to do with the power no getting to the Videocard and then tried to play a game and the same problem arose.
I have two games that I have tried, Tiger woods 2005 and doom III, both of which crash in the same manner.
I have tried to be as detailed as I can with the descritopn of my computer below and the power details I'm not sure about so I posted a picture of the power unit to help.
Many thanks for your help in this matter, I'm desperately trying to get some worth out of this card and feel frustrated that its going bonkers only when trying to play games :/
Please tell me if you require further information about the system.

Firstly, thank you for all your prompt responses, I really appreciate it. From the sounds of it, the PSU is ****
antec
From what I have read, the Antec PSUs have good reliability and ratings. I looked around and saw this one: Antec NEOPower 480W ATX PSU for around £65. I also went read that article posted by Dr Stu, which then stumbled on more articles about PSUs.
I have a couple more questions….
The rating of my system (http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/Power_Supply_Calculator.php) with all the components running came out to be 422W. So do you think that the Antec NEOPower 480W ATX PSU would be sufficient for the computer considering I might add more RAM in the future?
Or should I buy the 500W+ one then?
Does anyone know if the Antec PSUs are quiet? My current q-Tec one makes me feel I'm in an aeroplane.
lucky I read the forum!
I was in Maplins (computer shop) at lunch and thought, that shiny 650W Q-Tec looks nice and there looks like loads of power, that much do the trick. i got to the counter and thought.....let me wait, till i get home from work and read some more on the forum about this PSU issue.
Thanks god I didn’t buy that S***. having read some of the reviews, i would have wasted loooots of money for nothing.
