Every time I go on the AARP games site (http://games.aarp.org), it notes that my plugins need to be updated. I agree and go thru all the procedures of installing the plugins. They download but the steps of installing the plugins never become active. So where did the files go and can they be installed manually? Also the plugin for QuickTime says it is for Windows, but the download is for the MAC. Anyway, I really miss playing the AARP games, but how do I get them to open. The site opens, the games come up, I press play and nothing happens.

Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the Mozilla Plugin Check site.

Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions. If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow Update button or a red Update now button, please update these immediately.

To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.
