I'm having problems
running shockwave.
If you are having problems either
downloading, installing, or running the shockwave player, please go
to get.adobe.com/shockwave
for help (just paste .get.adobe.com/shockwave
into your web browser).
Some people who installed the most recent
version of Shockwave are having problems with Shockwave while using the
online puzzles. If you are having problems, we suggest you try a
different web browser if possible or contact Shockwave directly for help.
You should also make sure your web browser is set to 32 bits and not 64 bits
as this can sometimes cause an issue.
Also, make sure that you enable Active X
downloads for IE browser users (under the internet options tab).
All of the puzzle pieces
are black.

General Help
Some non AOL users also experience this problem, usually
their browser, either Microsoft Internet Explorer,
Firefox, Safari or Netscape is out of
date. To fix this problem, try updating your browser to the most
recent version or trying a different web browser.
Also, some users have reported problems if they use the 64bit version of
their browser (try changing to 32bits).
Can I save a puzzle and
complete it later?
Yes. The only requirement is that you use
the same computer and browser once you saved the puzzle. Just click on the save
button at the bottom of the puzzle.
If you are having trouble locating a puzzle
you saved you need to open up the same puzzle, same image/level of difficulty, using the same
computer/browser (exactly as you did the first time you started the online puzzle), and then
once the puzzle loads, click on the "load" button on the bottom of the jigsaw
puzzle engine. The saved puzzle should then appear.
How often do you change
your online puzzle images?
We add new
puzzles about every month.
If you ever have any requests, please feel free to let us know about them.
I think I'm missing a
piece, is this possible?
To make the online puzzles more realistic,
there is sometimes a missing piece or two. Just kidding, we would
never be that cruel. However, if you think you are missing a piece,
it is most likely stuck behind the part of the puzzle that has already
been completed. To solve this problem, simply move the completed
puzzle around by left clicking on it and moving your mouse until you can
see the piece behind the puzzle.
Why do you offer these
online puzzles for free?
We have decided to offer these free online
puzzles a way of saying thanks to our customers for their continuing
support of The Puzzle House.
Do the
pieces rotate?
All of the jigsaw puzzle pieces are already in the right
position. There is no need to rotate them.
Can
I make the size of the puzzle larger?
No, unfortunately there is no way to make
the size of the puzzle larger.
