I play by hand, too, and I had this problem about a year ago. It was enough to drive you crazy! It was Pogo's problem and it was eventually fixed, but it did take about two weeks. It was infuriating because I only needed like 100 or so red threes to get to my next rank.
Here is what pogo has to say.
A lot of members have recently been encountering a problem with their Canasta cards suddenly disappearing. No, this is not meant to be some sort of magic trick. While we are not absolutely certain why this is happening, we have noticed that most of the people encountering this problem seem to be using MS Java. So we have been telling them how to upgrade to the latest version of Sun Java, and that seems to be doing the trick, or at least fixing the trick.
I love canasta, but I ran into the same problem a while back update your java O0

Now that you mention it, it seemed to have work once I upgraded my java... :-\
It's been so long, I can't remember exactly.
It was so long ago when I finished that game, but I, too, recall having to update java for that one.. I think there's something in the pogo help section that tells you how to update it, if you need.. O0
im trying to avoid canasta. :-\

I played it so friggin much that I got sick of it. I haven't played in MONTHS. I was thinking I would pick it back up again, but seeing as how I forgot to do my damned badges in my secondary name, I'll be busy with those. >:D

I play a bit of Canasta now and again and I haven't seen the disappearing card trick this time around, although I did have that problem maybe a year or so ago like some of the others have said. I didn't do anything with my java and the problem went away itself. But if Pogo acknowledge the problem and say update your java, well I guess it couldn't hurt to try that :) Apparently it's something that can happen in Texas Hold'em as well, a friend of mine says half his cards sometimes disappear while we're playing. For some reason it's only the clubs and spades that seem to disappear lol
That's never happened to me before. I play four player - me and a friend and robots - and we always win, never had that problem.
However, I wish this "magic trick" would happen in Texas Hold'em or 6th Street more and just "magically" replace those missing cards with cards where I can actually win those 'Four Ace's' and so on badges.
I'm done with Canasta. I played with my sister some and she would lose her cards so often that I just double browsed for her. She had a problem with Vaults of Alantis also. She had 8 to 10 tex carters running around on her screen at all times. :)) :)) She never knew what door she was at.
After she got a new computer the problem went away. And she is now using sun java more with it updated.
Thanks everyone I tried Firefox with sun java and now canasta works fine

LOL... awws, I wish I had problems like that. Someone told me I didn't need SJ, only MJ, so I don't have SJ selected... you don't need it for Pogo at least, so I'm not changing it.

Some games and Autos work better with SunJava - its a trial and error thing for me to see which work best with which.
all mine work fine with virtual java.
Someone told me that there is a program that you can see other peoples cards while playing is that true??? :/// :OO

i will be using a cheat for canasta. :)

I can't get my Canasta window to load! I pick the room that I was in and the room never loads?
Anyone else having this problem?

No, but hold on. I've had this problem before with Shuffle Bump not loading and Pogo told me exactly what to do. I just have to remember what name I sent the question in on, so if you can be patient, I'll find it.

k, do this"The following error has occurred:
Wrong Version of Applet
Explanation:
The version of the game applet installed in your browser does not match the one on our game servers.
This can happen if you have installed a newer version from one of our testing sites, or if something has gone wrong with your web browser.
How to Fix the Problem:
If you are using Internet Explorer, follow these directions:
From the Tools menu, select "Internet Options..."
In the Temporary Internet files section (of the General tab), click the "Settings..." button.
Next, click the "View Objects..." button and find the game that you were trying to play in the list that appears.
Select the game and choose "Delete this item" from the tasks on the left (Windows 2000 users should right-click the game and choose "Remove").
Close the windows and restart your game. This should solve your problem."
If that doesn't work, do this:Please try to temporarily turning off your "Installed Applets". This will automatically clear out any applets that cannot be cleared out by clearing your Java and Browser cache.
1. In the Pogo main menu click on "My Stuff" button then press the "My Account" in the drop down menu.
2. At the Account screen click on the "Change Install Games" link
3. On the Change Install Games screen click the "Disable" radio button then press the "Change Installation Preference" button.
Now try the game it should load. Depending on your internet connection it may take longer to load then you are used to. Once the game loads, you should be able to go back to the "Install games" page and turn "installed Applets" back on.
