View Full Version : Can't play worms on my Macbook
When I try playing on my macbook, the only thing that comes up is the WORMS logo(un-animated) with a message that says "If your game fails to load please upgrade your Flash player or enable Javascript in you browser."
I do have Javascript enabled on the broweser, and I have upgraded the Flash player but it is still not working...
Is there a mininum version of certain Flash players I should know about?
ver 0.0.147

This same "bug" affects me too. Difference is that I have (k)ubuntu installed on my computer.
Link on below says:
ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 11.4 (WIN AND MAC) AND 11.2 (LINUX) - 32 BIT AND 64 BIT DEBUGGER (AKA DEBUG PLAYER OR CONTENT DEBUGGERS) AND STANDALONE (AKA PROJECTORS) PLAYERS FOR FLEX AND FLASH DEVELOPERS.
10/8/2012 – Updated debugger and standalone versions of Flash Player. These players contain fixes for critical vulnerabilities identified in Security Bulletin APSB12-22 . The latest versions are 11.4.402.287 (Win and Mac) and 11.2.202.243 (Linux). All users are encouraged to update to these latest versions.
(Modified this, because my answer didnt pass authority.. :( )
Hey guys, the version of Flash you now need to play is Flash 11.3. See the below link for the download...

Hope this helps. Let me know if you get it working! :)

The text behind Your link says:

So, the 11.3.xxx is not available for linux users. There is a duplicate report here: http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=58780 (maybe can be removed)
It appears that I need an Operating System Upgrade or two in order to download that version of the Flash Player...
I don't suppose you could hook me up with some free Mac OS downloads, ey ElBobbo ;]
?
I'm currently running on version 10.4.11...

Maybe this is only "windows only" game, as usual.. :o

No, I think you just gotta be running Mac OS 10.6 or higher... which I don't have either =/

Cassidy, I have this problem with my Mac too at home! Turns out I've been running v10.5 and was completely unaware that the newest one was 10.7! Similarly I've been running Firefox 3. Upgraded it....Firefox 15!! Whoops!

I'm trying to get the new stuff on my Mac and have got no idea how to get 10.7. I need to get 10.6 first, but it would seem that doesn't exsist anymore, so if you find a way, let me know too!! :)

I actually called a customer service rep the other day and he told me too, in order to upgrade my OS(Tiger-10.4), I need to first get 'Snow Leopard'(10.6), then 'Lion(10.7)'. both are 20 bucks each... and In order to run Lion properly, You need at least 2gigs of RAM... either version may not be available from the Apple store website.. but what I was planning on doing once I get the funds and RAM installed, was just calling Apple customer service again and ordering it over the phone or find an Apple store nearby and see if they have what I need...

Snow Leopard, that's the one I need to get too! Cheers for the info Cassidy. Good luck in your quest. :)
