Pokemon Go isn't working: How to fix common Pokemon Go problems. Now, if your game isn't running as slick and fast as you'd like, there's a couple of things that could be going on.
All of Coolmath's games are functioning perfectly. If a game isn't working for you, there's a problem on your side that can probably be fixed. ALL browsers should be able to run these games.
- The app's developers haven't reported any server issues or network outages on their part, so it's not like there's a defect with Game Pigeon itself. The reason why users aren't able to play games with peeps from their contact list has everything to do with iOS updates.
- If you’re getting no sound in the game but the sound works fine otherwise, check the Volume Mixer. Right-click the speaker icon in the system tray. Select Open Volume Mixer. Check the volume mixer to make sure the volume for the game isn’t turned all the way down. If it is, turn it up and your sound will start working again.
- See the Why don't my keyboard shortcuts for Game Bar work? A small number of PCs and accessories don’t support the Windows logo key. Check your device manufacturer’s website for more info. If your keyboard doesn’t have the Windows logo key built in, create a custom keyboard shortcut to open Game Bar.
1) If you CAN see the bouncing 'Coolmath' in the blue box above and your game looks like it's up and ready, but you can't get it to start, click your mouse on the game area. Sometimes the game just needs to know you are ready to play. If this box is working, but a some of our newer games are not, they might require the latest version of Flash, so you will need to update Flash to play those games.
2) If you CAN'T see the bouncing 'Coolmath' in the blue box above, then you probably need to enable, or install a program called Flash.
- If you are using Chrome, and it says 'Click to enable Adobe Flash Player', then click on the box and follow the instructions to enable the player.
My Game Pigeon Won't Open
- If you are using Chrome, and it says 'Adobe Flash Player is blocked', here's how to unblock Flash.
- Click on the little icon to the left of your web address in your browser navigation (between the Home button and www.coolmath-games.com)
- Find Flash in the menu that appears and change 'Block' to 'Always allow on this site'.
- If you are using a different browser, you may need to download or update Flash. You can get the latest version here: Adobe Flash Downloads
- If you've downloaded and installed Flash and things still aren't working, then you need to adjust your browser. If you are using Internet Explorer, and your browser warns you that it's blocked some 'active content' on Coolmath, go ahead and follow the directions to allow it.
If the above didn't help, then it may be an issue with your antivirus program blocking the content. Please try to change the settings of your antivirus program.
Problems with Saving Your Progress
If you are having problems saving your progress in Safari on Mac, you may need to adjust your browser settings. This process is a little different depending on your version of Safari and MacOS, but look for Preferences in your Safari menu.
- Open your Safari menu and click Preferences.
- Open the Privacy tab in the new window that appears.
- Uncheck 'Prevent cross site tracking' or select 'Always allow' next to 'Cookies and website data' (what you see depends on your version of Safari or MacOS)
Hope this helps!
