Theschles, couldn't you just ask Ian at the office or something?

- Web browser (update)
- Flash player and Java (update)
- Try different web browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, etc.)
- Make sure you're allowing more storage space for the games.
- Make sure JavaScript is enabled.
- Try turning off the add-ons you may have on.
That's all I can think of for now. I've experienced that problem before on Exit Path, but once I refreshed the tab it worked for me.

He doesn't work full time there anymore.

And it would help to know a URL. I posted on his wall to give me one to try out, as this is the first that I'm hearing about this situation.

Im pretty sure that i dont need to update anything becuase i have another computer thats about 5-6 years old that i dont think i have ever updated and my account works perfictly fine on that one, but yet i cant rly do anything on that one because its to slow. But the internet thing, ive allways used safari and it worked fine for me so, i dont think it is that

KingWarHammer -- it would really help if you would provide a URL to a game that's causing you issues, as well as a screenshot of the error condition.

Having outdated things often does cause problems. It's like running Firefox 2 when they have Firefox 6 out, you'll definitely experience problems with it since it's very old and they updated it with a whole bunch of new things. Also, do what theschles said.

King -- might I suggest Jing for the screenshot on your Mac: http://www.techsmith.com/download/jing/

The free version is extremely useful -- comes with something like 2GB / month of data usage on their image & video sharing. I've only exceeded the limit once, and that was because I had uploaded a 40 MB video and then posted the link to a Google forum. We use it heavily in the AG office.

Then I recommend trying Chrome or Opera. All those games work for me and I'm on Firefox 6, not sure why they're not letting you sign in.

Did you try anything else I mentioned? Use imgur to upload a screen shot of what you see when you try to sign in.

The Jing link doesn't work for you on your main computer?

Does it work on the older computer you mentioned? If so, your main computer might be having DNS issues. Check your main computer's DNS settings and consider rebooting it.

Oh, the link doesn't work because it has the &lt> in it, that happens when you just put the link in a post without pressing the link button. Here's the link for it without the &lt>.
