How do i fix this 'Missing Plugins' problem?

Post by fenderrio »

Hey guys.

I'm not sure if you've had similar problems with this, but for quite a while now, any site with a built-in media player, or even some large images of a certain type, have been unable to load; and all i get is this drop down option from the top of the screen telling me i am missing some plugins (???) , and helpfully offers to download the required ones i need... only to say every damn time, that they are not available!

At first it was a minor annoyance, and now its just pissing me off. I have tried searching around for solutions on the net, but don't really know what to look for. I somehow think it must have a simple solution...

I'm using firefox as a browser, if that makes any difference...

Can anyone solve my problem?!

Thanks a lot.

Ok, it works in IE fine and dandy... but i like firefox! haha

If you have firefox, try this site:

http://www.musicroom.com/se/ID_No/05316 ... ?kbid=1070

see if you can see the preview piano script page in the middle.

Cos i can't see it all with firefox.

at the bottom of the page
If you cannot see the score above, you need to install the Scorch sheet music viewer. Click here to start the installation. We advise you to check your printer set up now before you buy. You will only get one chance to print your music after you have purchased it. If you have difficulty printing, please see our Digital Sheet Music FAQ. Note: Scorch for Internet Explorer running on Windows is installed automatically as an ActiveX control. Some versions of Windows XP automatically block ActiveX controls. If this is the case, Internet Explorer will display a message directly underneath the Address bar. Click on this message to enable the install.
