Unable to load many web based games after installing lion

After installing Lion, I am unable to launch several online games (Pogo e.g.). What compatibility issues are being addressed?

I didn't think reinstalling was gonna do me any good except for getting rid of every single thing I have ever installed since getting this MBP.  I'm thinking it has to be something that is on my computer causing this, especially since it only affects my ability to get to this one site and I only started seeing this problem yesterday.
So, I went ahead and disabled all my Chrome extensions and I don't have any Safari extensions at all.  That didn't fix my issue.
I've been trying to run Sophos on here, thinking that maybe I've got a Trojan or some kind of malware, but it never seems to finish a full scan of my hard drive.  That "Plugin" that I mentioned above has me very suspicious, except that whatever that is, it's been on my computer since basically when I first got it.  Maybe it's malicious, or maybe it's just a poorly named piece of software.  In any case, it got updated last night around 11pm, about the same time I noticed my problem.  After trying everything I have, it's hard for me to overlook that as coincidence.
But, where do I go to gain more information about what that could be?  I should mention that this MBP is basically my first Apple computer.  I've been a PC guy (still am mostly) forever, but I finally dove in and got a Mac to start iOS development.  So I'm sure there are ways to get more information than I am currently aware of.
Also, apologies if I posted this in the wrong forum.

  • Web-Based Game Skill System

    Hello everyone,
    I am currently developing a web-based game website using
    Coldfusion 8 and MS SQL.
    Until recentely, things have been going well. But I am now
    stuck on a small issue of using an in-game skill system.
    The way it works (or will work) is that your in-game
    character will have a large library of skills to choose from, all
    of which are accessible throughout the entire game. By choosing a
    skill, your character will begin learning it over a set amount of
    time (the time required for that specific skill). Your character
    will, over time, generate it's own library of learnt skills - each
    benefiting him or her within the game.
    I hope this is all clear so far :)
    So my small (but actually quite large) issue is that I'm not
    sure how to go about storing this list of learnt skills.
    My first instinct was to create a column within the
    "characters" table in which the learnt skills would be stored as a
    list, and then drawn out when actually listed on a page. But I have
    heard that using lists within database tables isn't such a good
    idea, and I would generally prefer another way around the issue.
    My next idea was to create a table listing all of the
    available skills as columns (a kind of library of every in-game
    skill), then the characters would have a single row in that table
    in which they have a "yes" or "no" under each skill column. These
    yes or no answers would then be used to generate the library of
    skills that character has. But this idea is very messy and I don't
    even know how I could use this table in an SQL query...
    I'd really like a simple and powerful solution for this
    issue/problem, and I would be highly appreciative of anyone that
    could help me!
    Thanks in advance,
    Aiden

    "Thanks a lot for your reply anyway :) and I'm sorry it
    wasn't of use
    to me."
    Actually Dan was guiding you down the correct database
    normalization
    path. What you have is a classic many-to-many join. You have
    many
    character records and many skill records and you want to join
    them such
    that a character can have 0-N skills (zero to infinity) and a
    skill can
    be used by 0-N players.
    This is done with three tables. A character table with the
    basic
    details of a character and a skills table with the details of
    the skills
    and a joining table that connects the two. At a minimum the
    join tables
    simple consists of two fields, a foreign key field to the
    characters
    table and a foreign key field to the skills table. Thus for
    each skill
    a character has there will be one record connecting the two
    id's
    together. This joining table can easily be expanded to have
    other data
    about the character-skill join such as when it started, what
    level the
    character has reached in the skill, whatever else your system
    needs.
    An simple Example:
    Character Table
    ID Name
    1 Joe
    2 Sam
    3 George
    Skill Table
    ID Name
    1 Hunting
    2 Cooking
    3 Archery
    Character_Skill Join Table
    CharID SkillID
    1 1
    1 3
    2 2
    3 1
    3 2
    3 3
    Thus with basic SQL join syntax we can synthesize the data
    that Joe can
    hunt and shoot arrows, Sam can cook and George can do it all.

  • Web based Game

    Hi Friends.
    I want to design a web based game. There is a server and two clients. Each client is a player and the server will handle the collaboration between them. I am using Netbeans and jsp.
    First client one will type the url of server and gets connected. Then it has to wait until second client connects. When second client also connects, then I should update the browser window contents of client one. How can I do this?
    If you did not get the quesiton, please e-mail me at [email protected] I shall explain you more clearly. Please help me at your best.
    Thanks.

    A server cannot push to the client, but you can use AJAX to poll to the server.
    Mailing is meaningless. If you feel you have more to explain, just post it here at the dicsussion forum. It's not a contact advertising forum.

  • Why won't the zimbra website load my web based email?

    When I try to open the zimbra email web site with safari, it freezes and nothing is loaded not even the sign-in page. I can load the sign in page on other computers, even my iPhone. Why will it not load on my Mac?

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences. If you are running an older version of Safari select the Security tab.
    Where you see:  Accept Cookies
    Make sure Never is not selected.
    Only from sites I visit is recommended.
    If you are running a later version of Safari, select the Privacy tab instead.
    Make sure cookies isn't blocked there.
    If cookies aren't preventing you from loading your web based mail, you may have better luck using a differrent browser such as Chrome or Firefox.

  • Unable to update apps in app  store after installing 8.1.3

    I have been unable to update apps in app  store after installing 8.1.3
    Is anyone else having this problem?

    Yes, on iPhone, but ok on iPad. It says I have 12 Updates, but doesn't say what they are. I sync'd with iTunes on the Mac and everything is up to date there. I think if there are no Updates in iTunes, then you are up to date. It may be an issue with Notifications. I'm turning Alerts off in iPhones Notifications settings for now so I don't have to look at the number. Welp, now it says 11 Updates.

  • How many free disk space after install OS X lion (10.7) ?

    Hi,
    I would like to know that how many free disk space after install OS X lion (10.7) on MBA i5.
    Many Thanks,
    Eric

    I want to buy MBA i5, I would like to free disk space of MBA 13" i5, Could anyone tell it to me? Thanks
    As you're buing a new MacBook Air, it will come pre-installed with Lion.  The actual installation will be somewhat larger than a "clean" Lion install as it will come with iLife preinstalled.  Obviously, with an Air's limited storage space, you want to be sure that you have enough room for any applications and data that you'll want to keep on the SSD as well.  It is fairly easy to upgrade the SSD on an Air:

    The amount of RAM you have installed is probably more important.  Fortunately, the newest 13" MacBook Airs all come with 4GB standard now.

  • Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......

    Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......it connect with wifi but not with Internet and at the same time iPad 2, iPhone 4 works smooth......help......I have MacBook air without thunderbolt and mac mini

    I had the same problem last night. Boot into OSX and reboot the router - fine. Boot into Windows and wrong. Here were my fixes:
    Firstly, I kept all the settings on my router solid. Just leave them as they are. Boot into OSX and check the Network settings and make a note of your IP address and the router's IP address.
    Second, boot into Windows, then open up your wireless connection settings and navigate through to the properties where you can set the IP address.
    Third: Set the IP address to your routers IP address changing the last set of digits to a value between 5 and 255 (I have 8 devices so I set the last two digits to 10.) This will keep the IP static.
    Tab through the Mask settings to default those.
    Then set the default gateway to your router's IP address.
    Check that the Network Adapter's setting has IPv6 disabled (uncheck the box)
    Finally: Set the primary DNS server to 8.8.8.8 then the secondary to 8.8.4.4 and then reboot the router.
    That's what got my connection running.

  • Apache not starting after installing Lion

    After installing Lion, my Apache local service doesn't start anymore.
    in System Preferences > Sharing, the Web Sharing is not checked anymore.
    If I (try to) check it, it try for half a second, and then is unchecked again.
    No error message. I also reinstalled the last Xcode package, rebooted, nothing.
    What to do? Thank you!

    Commenting out that line simply disables mod_fastcgi (which might caus performance problems under a load).
    In case you really need the mod_fastcgi to speed up apache2 you can easily compile and install it given you have the xcode development env installed.
    (i've chosen the latest version which is a snap but still roughly 2 years old.)
    cd /tmp
    curl -O -L http://www.fastcgi.com/dist/mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0910052141.tar.gz
    tar zxf mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0910052141.tar.gz
    cd mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0910052141.tar.gz
    cp Makefile.AP2 Makefile
    make topdir=/usr/share/httpd
    sudo make install
    this will install the apache mod_fastcgi.so into apples apache2 install and you should be able to continue with a fastcgi setup.
    So far this has worked for me w/o any problem.
    cheers

  • Time capsule problems after installing Lion

    After installing Lion, I need to regularly shut down iMac(Intel) in order to have Time capsule do the next backup. This method allows me to manually back up the automatic function to back up no longer exists. Also unable to connect to the backup disk.

    Mine needs backing up immediately after its just backed up!! Its crazy!! IOS5 was supposed to be free but as a result I had to pay to upgrade to Lion then I had to pay to upgrade to iPhoto 11 just to be able to transfer photos from my iphone!! On top of this, Lion runs as slow as a PC, asks to backup constantly, I'm losing iDisk and iWeb next year and they've removed the bounce facility from Mail. Blinding. Well done Apple - who's brainwave was Lion and IOS5? Bill Gates?

  • After installing lion, my computer is running slower and having delays connecting to network

    please help me resolve my problem.  after installing lion my system was running great for about a week.  suddenly it is having trouble connecting to the internet, running slow and the history pages are appearing without asking for them..  unable to get my homepage when opening up, just get a white screen. if i go to the history, i can get the homepage.  Only able to access my homepage by waiting for ever or getting it from the history.
    please help

    Peter, thank you for responding.  No, I am not referring to the initial start up.  I downloaded Yosemite over a week ago and feel it is running very slow when switching websites.  Also, I have experienced numerous hangups causing me to force quite much more than before.
    I just cleared my Safari history (I am guessing that is what you meant by "clean the old internet-caches" and restarted Safari.  I will see how it goes.
    I uses a file called "Desktop" from my IPhoto library for my desktop pictures. It contains about 20 pictures.  I configured it that way in Preferences, but it seems whenever I shut down and restart my computer it reverts to the generic picture of Yosemite.  As for the question mark and "Update Needed" showing on my startup log in screen, I think I fixed that by changing my password in Preferences.
    No that I have cleared the Safari history, I will see how things go.

  • Where is my I Photo Library in Time Machine Backups as I seem to have lost photos after installing Lion?

    Can anybody tell me how I can locate my photos from I Photo in the Time Machine backups as I seem to have lost most of 2011 after installing Lion.
    Many thanks

    To recover individual photos open iPhoto and use the File ➙ Browse Backups menu option.
    Click to view full size
    That will take you into iPhoto in Time Machine where you can search for the phtoos and restore them.
    To restore the entire library, close iPhoto, go to the Pictures folder, enter Time Machine, go back in time till you get the library you want to restore, select it and use the Restore button.
