I am trying to start an online fictional league using "real" historical players from any era... from the 1870's to 2012. I want to let the team owners "watch' the games played live using the "live broadcast" feature of OOTP 14.

In my "tests," using OOTP 14, I can get the game to create a web page with line scores and highlights that updates every 30 seconds or so. It looks great and it seems to work as explained in the manual.

However, in the Manual, it appears that there should be a link on the page for each game's line score that says "Watch Game," and that if selected, would go to another web page where the individual game is displayed in the home team's stadium that looks like the game screen in OOTP. On this page, an owner could watch individual games unfold, with all the player pictures, stadium pictures, and play by play information.

In my "tests," I cannot get the "Watch Game" link to display as described in the manual.

I have the Mac version of OOTP. I have a MacBook Pro with a2.2 GHz Core 2 Duo processor, the latest OS, 10.8.4, and 4Gigs of RAM.

Is there a difference between the Windows version and the Mac version? Have I missed something in the set up? What am I not doing that would cause the "Watch Game" link to not appear?

I believe my league's owners might enjoy watching games played in "live broadcast" in our new online league. My idea was to play the league games at a specific day and time every week so owners, if they wanted, could watch their team's games and see how their team performed.

Any help would be appreciated.
