since i tried to install internet explorer 7 it has seemed to mess up my access to the pogo rooms..when i tried to play games i would get a message saying i should update my java,so i tried doing that,still no access to the rooms,i uninstall the internet explorer 7 and uninstalled and restalled java again and still cant get in to a room..the only games i can get in to play now are the deluxe games...does anyone know what has happened and how i can fix it..im no computer whiz so i dont know what to try next to solve this problem..i just dont know what messed it up..when i click on a room to play a game,it will act like its trying to open up the room,but then i get that java error message coming up every time...help..

I have no idea what happened, but  have you tried to get in using Firefox instead of IE?

arniebear

Make sure Java is enabled in IE, I had similar problem on my daughters computer and Java was not enabled, also make sure you have allowed Pogo in your cookie settings. Go into Tools/Internet Options/Programs then Manage Addons and make sure Java says enabled there, if not enable it.

Mistyeyed

it has already been enabled in those settings,how do you allow pogo access in the cookie settings..im actually able to bring up the pogo site..but its not allowing me in to a room,keeps bringing that error java message up..that offers three suggestions..i checked all three and everything was as it should be..im stumped..

arniebear

Go into your popup blocker settings and then type in pogo.com and add it as an allowed site. 

Mistyeyed

yes,i see where you mean arniebear.i already had allowed access..so now im still stumped..cant figure out what happened..i think something got screwed up when i deleted the cookies..?

arniebear

If all else fails I guess you can try a restore, maybe that will put it right again.  Wish I could think of more to help you  :((

Misty,
I don't know if this will help or not, I found it on the interent. Someone else was having the same problem. This is supposedly posted on the Pogo website somewhere. Go to the help section on Pogo and type in java not working and it has the answers under #6.

"'Java not found or not working' errors when using Sun Java and IE 7

If you recently updated to Internet Explorer 7 (IE 7.0) and are now experiencing 'Java Not Found or Not Working' errors, it is typically due to Java being disabled in the browser. You can manually enable Java using the steps below:
1.Open an Internet Explorer 7 browser window.
2.Click on the Tools menu in the upper right of the window.
3.Choose Manage Add-Ons and then select Enable and Disable Add-Ons.
4.Click on Sun Java Console.
5.Make sure the radio button at the bottom is set to Enable.
6.Click OK.
7.Close the window.
8.Open a new Internet Explorer 7 browser window and go to the Pogo website.
Launch a Pogo game.
Try one that you are sure was not working previously so you can test it.

Java should now be fully enabled and Pogo games should work correctly."

So very sorry Misty 6_6.gif.  I am comp illiterate so I will not even go there, but if you need any help in the mean time...like with this weeks challenges, I sure will help you out.

Mistyeyed

thanks everyone for the advice..i did make sure everything was enabled,i had checked all that out yesterday,thought i would try again this morning and im still being denied access,keep getting the java error,i sent pogo an e mail and they pretty much told me to try what they already had listed on the error page..which i already have..still stumped...does anyone think when i deleted all my cookies that it brought this problem on?

Mistyeyed

sassy i did follow those instructions and everything was already enabled....im puzzled..

I am NO computer wiz, Misty, but I don't think deleting cookies would have done this to you.  I delete cookies ALL THE TIME when I clean out my cache and that problem doesn't happen to me.... nor have I heard the connection with anyone else.  I really wish I could be of more help.  I hate puter problems!  Don't these blasted machines know that we have some serious cheating to do??

arniebear

I also delete my cookies and history daily, maybe a registry cleaner might help.......something is messed up.

I can not find the link, but Homer recommended the Advanced System Care scan.  I downloaded it and it cleans out a lot of stuff.  The link is in here (the tech section) somewhere.

tara,that site,is it a safe one to deal with?   well,i thought i would try the response i received from pogo which was to uninstall sun java and reinstall it,well i did,but no improvement..still cant access any game rooms,keeps giving me that dang error message...hmmm..im stumped..

Mistyeyed

well,i downloaded the advance care and it did clean up a lot of junk,but still not getting access to game rooms..not sure what to try now..i can still play the deluxe games,so guess i will just have to work on ranking out on them...

Magzy

Misty, try turning off all your security for just a minute and see if it will let you play...if it does, then you know that something in your security is blocking it.

The new Java update may be the problem. Now, there is an applet warning (the little yellow triangle at the right, top corner of the "waiting for players" box) that has been messing up my autos. I thought it was something wrong with java, but this is what I found:

This article applies to:

    * JRE version(s):
      6.0



A new warning feature has been added to Java's applet behavior (please refer to the image below). When an unsigned applet opens a new window, outside of the browser, a yellow border appears around the applet along with a triangular warning sign appearing on the top right corner of the applet.

This is a new feature as of Java 6u10. It provides users a warning that a pop-up window has been activated. The yellow border and warning sign will go away once the user move the cursor out of the applet window area.

This has really messed up my auto, especially in Dominoes.

Apparently they think we can't figure out what a pop-up is without their assistance.  :-[

Another reason NOT to update Java.
