Ok Squiddy, whenever is great, I've just arrived home (it's 9 PM) been out all day. Haven't even started Dailies or todays challenges yet so I'm in no hurry at all. Just so ... so ... happy to know the Java issue is solved. Whenever we can all get together is good. Happy Challenge Day!!

So Squid was able to open one active version on her computer. I was able to open one on each of my two computers. We both updated to latest version of Java. I had success with Mozilla Firefox, which I just updated as well.

- March 03, 2013, 11:16:25 AMThanks so much hotpink ... and everyone else. Tried it all and still can't get into Spades with IE, Chrome or firefox. My sister is having the same issues and we've both put each reply to trial but so far nothing seems to work for us. I guess this is one badge I won't be able to get unless someone else can get in there and do it for me. Thanks everyone ... thanks a million .. such a GREAT site!!

- March 02, 2013, 07:58:17 PMHey there,
I was having major issues with Java a month ago as well. I deleted the most recent version and reinstalled it but from the offline version which is under the Java downloads page and it finally started working. Here's the link: http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp. I'm assuming you're using a Windows system so it's the first two options at the top but click on the Windows Offline link. It takes a little while longer to download because it's the old school way but it'll be worth it. Once you've installed the program (which was saved to your desktop) and you log into Pogo it might look like it's not going to load when you first start a game but just give it a good 15-20 seconds and it will come up whether you play in-browser or with the window popped out. If it doesn't it's usually because the whole page wasn't allowed to load so you can refresh the page and it'll work.
If you use Firefox with any kind of frequency, you should also go to main menu (orange Firefox tab on upper left hand side), click on Add-Ons, select the Get Add-Ons tab and type Places Maintenance in the search box. Install it, close the browser, open it up again and go to Add-Ons once more, select the Extensions tab and go to Places Maintenance 1.3 and click on Options. Under Preset select All then press the Execute button (it's super quick.) From then on, whenever you have issues loading on Firefox just go back to Places Maintenance and select all and execute and it'll put everything back in order.
I hope this helps.

DARN SPADES!Hi Snap,
I lowered the Security Setting to Medium then to Low but it still wouldn't let me put a check mark in IE Box on the Advanced Page.
I have Chrome and it does exactly the same thing as IE.
I also have FireFox but havent tried it yet .. I guess I should at least give it this one last shot? lol.
I went to Add/Remove and the only Java installed is 7 update 15.
I have no problem (yet at least) of getting into any other game room.
Could it be it's just this game ~ SPADES ~ causing all this havoc?
Thanks so much for all your advice ...
... so, so much appreciated!!Posted by snap20
- March 02, 2013, 06:56:31 PMIf you can't select to enable it in IE on the control panel, it isn't going to work. I'm not sure why it would be grayed out. Does it allow you to check it if you lower the security setting? Try lowering it to medium or low, and check the advanced page to see if you can check the IE box.
Do you have Chrome or FF installed? Maybe give one of those a try.
Just to verify you are using Java Version 7 update 15, correct? You can check your Add/Remove programs (where that is and what it's called depends on if you use Win7, Vista, 8 or XP). If you look in that list and there is more than one Java program, you should remove anything older than the 7 update 15. If Java FX appears, remove that too.
I tried to run the game in IE (I have an old version though, since I never use it...Version 7) and it froze, then just completely shut down the browser. LOL. So i'm not sure what's going on with IE and Spades.

I tried lowering it Snap but it made no difference .. I cannot get into Spades. Really don't know where to go from here ... thanks everyone!!

- March 02, 2013, 05:31:46 PMSnap ... that Java drop down box won't allow me to do anything other than click YES or NO and then it freezes, ugh!
I will take your advice on setting my Java Control Security Tab to Medium before trying Spades, and then back to High again after completion.
WHY WHY is this only happening in SPADES? Anyone know?? Frustrating!! lol.
Thanks so much to both of you for everything, am VERY grateful for all help offered!!!

- March 02, 2013, 04:04:56 PMThe checkbox would be in the notice that pops up on your screen when you try and load spades.
Here's something you can try, in the Java control panel choose the "Security" tab. Choose "Medium" as your security level. Try that. If you are able to play spades like that, go for it, but after you done with your badge, I'd move it back to the recommended high setting since everything else seems to work with it set to high.
If that doesn't work...then...uh...we may be in for a conundrum.
