Why don't any of the controls work on my mac? Once I load minecraft I can't do anything outside of the game because it locks my cursor (and yes I tried pressing escape). The only way I got out of it was to manually shut down my computer. I was using safari on OS 10.6.1 if that helps

"Q: What are the spawnable avatars (called a mob) in single player mode for?"
Does this need to be updated to reflect new updates?

A couple questions for you guys
1. If one account bought Alpha, will other accounts that haven't bought it be able to log in and play on the computer that downloaded Alpha?
2. If two computers are sharing an account at the same time, will they be able to play multiplayer together?
Might have a couple more, please answer. Jax-Kenobi 16:33, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

FAQ proposal: anaglyph
I think it bears mentioning that Anaglyph Minecraft needs red-blue and not the more common (and superficially similar) red-cyan glasses. It's mentioned in passing on the Survival page that anaglyph is included but I don't think many people would come across the info if I put it there. Any objections?

- I use red-cyan and works perfect.. Does minecraft realy needs red-blue? Chrunchstick 14:54, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
- I have both kinds. I get afterimages through the cyan lens, but not through a blue one.Sockatume 12:32, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
FAQ: CHARACTER SKINS
I read up on it in the FAQ already because something happened to my game, not bad, but i would like to know if it is reversible... and WHY it happened?
Long story short, I launched the game one day, and my character.. is a creeper, in skin anyways. i don't blow up (thank god) but I have no idea why, or how this came to be.
Help?
- Sign your post please.
- This is likely due to a skin being uploaded through minecraft.net. Check your account, and if necessary re-upload the default (or your favorite custom) skin. Darkid 20:27, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
Minecraft Update 1.8
The Minecraft update 1.8 has made me unable to play Minecraft (In Browser Mode and Download). It keeps on showing me this:
Bad video card drivers!
-----------------------
Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode. This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.

How do you activate a Nether portal?
How do you activate a nether portal?
I have been trying to activate one,but I don't know how to activate it. I know I have to make a frame,but I don't know how to activate it. I am sort of new to the game,I've played for about... 5 days now.I guess I am really into it.So I don't really know how to activate one.
you use a flint and a piece of iron to make a flint and steel then you set the inside of the portal on fire and it acctivates it. hope that helped!! Jessica
