Firefox v23 on Mac and OWL Space Audio Recording

Mac Users

If you have updated Mozilla Firefox to v.23, your audio recording may no longer work in OWL Space Tests & Quizzes.  If it is not working, please update your Java Running Environment (JRE).

*Before going through the download procedure below, make sure that the problem is not your audio input.  To set your audio input, open System Preferences -> Sound -> Input.

Steps to update your JRE

  1. Go to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
  2. Click the Download button under JRE (Far right).
  3. In the next page, click to accept license agreement.
  4. Choose the JRE to download.  I recommend
    Mac OS X x64 50.62 MB jre-7u25-macosx-x64.dmg
  5. Go through a typical application installation in your mac.
  6. Just to be safe, restart your Mac.

This should allow you to record.
