[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1447169, member: 71075"] Have you checked to see which version of the plugin is loaded by the browser? It's possible that it's still trying to load the Java 7 plugin. I've done some testing here. As expected, Chrome won't load Java if Java 7 is the default handler for applets. What's frustrating is the inability to disable Java 7 (the enable/disable checkbox is unresponsive) and with both versions set to be the default, Java 7 takes precedence. So, I'm guessing that somewhere, Java 7 is blocking Java 6 on your machine. I just tried the instructions from Oracle ([URL="http://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_uninstall_java.xml"]here[/URL]) and they worked like a charm. I can now use Java once again in Chrome.
