I have installed the latest versio0n of Java but cannot enable it in FF because it doesn't show up in the Plug-in list. Any ideas?
I have FF v21 on an SP machine (SP3) and installed the latest update to JAVA (7) but cannot select it to enable it because it isn't in the list of Plug-ins even after restarting FF and re-installing Java.
After the first failure I uninstalled Java completely and installed the latest version including JavaFX. That didn't work either.

I have already tried FF Help page, but as I stated in my question, JAVA isn't on the list of installed plug-ins, therefore I can't select it to enable it. But when I download JAVA a second time and try to re-install, it tells me that the latest version is already installed on my computer (but apparently NOT in FF)..
What I need is a process to make sure it is installed within FF..
Thanks....
Firefox is a 32-bit application, so it can't use the 64-bit plugin. I dont but i thing u use java 64-bit,plz try to install java 32-bit
According to the JAVA website, the standard download is 32 bit. To get the 64 bit, there is a totally different download process. I have always used the standard download so I am running 32 bit Java.
Any other ideas?
Try to run the Java installer as Administrator to make sure that the needed registry keys that Firefox uses to scan for plugins and find the Java plugin.
