crossword cove/ keyboard

★★★ Newbie

Because of security issues with java and the Mac I just upgraded my computer to Mt Lion.  Everything seemed to be working okay and then I went into crossword cove and my mouse works fine but my keyboard does not allow me to type in words.

I am using Firefox and not Safari.

Thank You for your help

Apple blocked Java. There will be fixes on June 18th with tthe new Java release, 7.25.

 

Here's a workaround for CROSSWORD COVE:


If you click on the blue button next to the Menu button, it will put the clue list next to the puzzle.

Highlight each clue & then you can type in the words. It takes a while but you can complete the puzzle

& get credit for it.

Or you can try clearing the Java cache, click on the letter that you need & then hit "return".

The letter is then in the grid. 

 

This also worked when typing in Scrabble.
