Do you have a firewall and anti-spyware program that are running all the time. Do you have a anti-virus program running all the time. Have you given permission to allow the pogo games to run in each of the programs.What browser are you using. Have you always had this problem or did this just happen after downloading a new program or updating a older program. all thes thing and more could cause you problem, so it is important to know everything in order to help you.Have you talked to the people at pogo games and have they told you anything to help solve your problem. They are usually the best source of information since they use the games everyday. Thank you and have a nice day

Pogo.com want load at all...just a blinking screen

Hello there and welcome to fixya
If games on Pogo don't load for you, load very slowly, or give errors such as 'Please wait, Loading,' see below for information on the most common causes (and links to instructions on how to address them). It could be as simple as clearing your Java Cache or Browser Cache, or it could be related to other programs such as firewalls and anti-virus programs

First, let's try to rule out some specific issues (If you're a Mac user, please try this FAQ.):
  • If you are trying to play one of our Flash games, like Poppit!, Word Whomp, Mahjong Safari, Family Feud, Claire Hart: Soul Searcher, just to list a few, and they will not load then you may need to install the latest version of Flash. To install the latest version of Flash simply go here and follow the instructions - http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
  • Does the game that won't load have a Weekly Challenge going on, especially on Wednesdays?

If you can rule the above issues out, here are the next troubleshooting steps to try:
If Java is installed on your machine but not enabled

If you're still having issues and you're certain that Java is installed on your machine, it may be disabled. All mainstream browsers have an option for enabling Java, which ensures any applets that use it will function properly. For a complete list of per-browser instructions for enabling Java, visit http://www.java.com/en/download/help/enable_browser.xml.

Here's what to do if clearing your java cache/browser cache and making sure your Java is updated, doesn't resolve the issue.


Anti-Virus Programs/Firewalls and Pogo

The most common causes of problems that players encounter when playing our games are simply caused by anti-virus, firewall, ad blocking, and pop-up blocking software. The easiest way to determine if one or more of these is the cause of the problem is to simply disable them and see if the problem goes away. If the problem goes away, then the next step is to figure out how to configure the software to still protect your system without preventing you from playing our games. In this case, you should refer to the software's manual or help files for detailed instructions on how to make the desired changes to the software.

Some common symptoms of this include:
  • "Cripes!" Errors
  • "Server too Busy" Errors
  • Cards disappear or do not appear
  • Other graphics do not appear or are distorted
  • "Game Loading" indicator never goes away
  • Profiles never appear
  • Table windows never open

There are also several types of maintenance steps that can be taken on a regular basis to try and prevent problems from occurring. This includes deleting Temporary Internet Files / Browser Cache and deleting Game Objects. We only officially support a few browsers as they are the most common and compatible with our site. They are: Internet Explorer 8 and 9, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari for Mac OS X (and later versions of these browsers as applicable). If you do a search on the help site for "Cache," you will find instructions on how to clear the cache for those browsers.

Aol and pogo game not loading

  1. Open Internet Explorer (even if you normally use the AOL or MSN browser).
  2. Click Tools on the IE toolbar.
  3. Select Internet Options.
  4. In the middle of the Internet Options window, click the 'Settings' button in the middle in the Temporary Internet Files section.
  5. On the Settings screen, click the View Objects tab. This is where your browser stores the actual game applet.
  6. Look for any files in the list that are Pogo games. Things like 'PopFu by Pogo', 'Freecell by Pogo' and so on, and delete those.
  7. Click Yes to confirm the deletion of each file.

Installing or re-installing Sun Java
  1. Go to the Sun Java Download page at www.java.com.
  2. The steps may vary as Sun updates this page periodically.
  3. Click the Download button that is usually on the right side of the page.
  4. Click the Begin Download button.
  5. Next you may encounter a warning message that instructs you on 'Installing the ActiveX Control'. Please follow the instruction to allow the installation.
  6. If you see a Security Warning for installing the J2SE Runtime Environment, click Install.
  7. Next you will be prompted to read and accept the license agreement. After reading the agreement click next to 'I accept...' and click Next.
  8. When prompted, choose 'Typical' installation, and click Next.
  9. When the installation is complete, you may be asked to restart your computer now or later. Choose to restart it now.
  10. After your computer has restarted and you are online, go back and try to play again.
Once you are sure you are using the latest version of Sun Java, please follow these instructions to delete the Java cache and objects if you're using Windows.
  • Click the following things in order: Start -> Control Panel -> Java -> 'General' tab.
  • Click the Delete Files button located in the Temporary Internet Files section.
  • Make sure all three boxes are selected, and click OK.
This should probably be done whenever you encounter a problem with the way a game is functioning. Restarting your computer after doing so can also help the performance of the game.
