    I am new to WGT and could play it twice. Now it does not let me play. Whenever I hit "play now" I get a black window, showing the download button for flash player only. Why did it work before? Why not now? I downloaded the latest version of flash player. I tested it as recommended in this forum, the result was "awesome". I am using a MacBook Pro with Safari. iOS is Sierra 10.12.

    I have blocked the AddBlocker, but it still does not work.

    Any ideas from you folks? I would appreciate it very much.

    You say you downloaded the latest Flash Player Blues and I'm assuming you installed it unless it self installed and then rebooted.

    The only other thing I can think of is updating Java that's if it works an a Mac. I'm not a Mac person so I really don't know.

    A real expert will be along shortly and put you right. Atb

    Thanks. It must have been Java. Now it works again. No idea, why I could play at first and then was blocked.

    This chap will more than likely help you if you contact him.

    There are others as per above who will also.

    Do not confuse Java and Javascript, they are two totally different languages. As far as I'm aware, WGT does not use Java. I don't have it installed on my machine and WGT runs perfectly okay.

    Perhaps a reboot fixed your problem Bluesy.  : )

    I had the system rebooted several times, ScottHope (nice name, though). I do not know why, but after installing Java everything works fine.
