Uh . . . what do you mean? It sounds to me like you downloaded Java. If so, if you just view a project the java player will automatically start.

Re: How to get Java on scratch

But when I go back to scratch it says the sme thing,"you need Java to view prodject",or something like that. Anyway I to Java.com and installed it to my computer, but it is not working on scratch. But I solved that problen a long tine ago. I just downloaded it and opend the folder to view it, Then I just exit out.

Re: How to get Java on scratch

Maybe you should get rid of that java, and then re-download the latest version, sometimes if Java games or scratch projects don't work it's because your java is too old

Once you have Java installed onto your computer please run the installer. After, that Scratch projects should now be viewable online! If not try what was previously suggested which is to Un-install Java, and the Re-install it! Hope that helps! big_smile

Re: How to get Java on scratch

If Java fails:

1. Make sure you are definetly getting the NEW java. Some links may be outdated and cause you to get an old Java. Be sure to restart your computer (sometimes helps.)
2. That doesn't work? Try it in a different browser, it may be a problem with the one your using.
3. Still doesn't work? try clearing your cache. (Computer may still be loading the "you don't have java" page)

If none of these work, Java may be working incorrectly for you...
I don't have this problem myself.
