[MacBook] Java crashing/not working on some sites

Posted by Aam December 25, 2011 0 comments

Suddenly I am having trouble with Pogo games that use JAVA. The games won't load. (Games that use Flash load properly.) Their tech support responded quickly but the problem remains.

I am running 10.6.8 and this problem occurs in Safari, Firefox and Chrome.

I have Java SE 6 on my computer. The Electronic Arts tech said they do not recommend uninstalling Java on Macs ( they recommend it for Windows), but he also mentioned Java 29.

Is there something I can do myself? Should I reload Java 6? There seem to be several sites out there that offer free downloads but I'm a tad confused as to which one is "legitimate".

Or should I just wait until after the holidays and contact my local tech support person to look at my laptop?

Thanks.
Elaine

Happy Holidays!
