Do I need to reinstall java for mac after maverick upgrade

I just updated to maverick on my macbook pro and everything works fine. When i went to the preferecne the java option wasnt there so I searched it in finder and saw all the folder for it still there. I still have the download too. When i went to play minecraft it said I didnt have it. So I was wondering if I need to install java 7 agian. Also im only using it for the game should I do anything else in terms of security?

The short answer is.. No.
However, keep near by those SYSTEM and APPLICATIONS DVDs that came with your computer, just in case anything goes wrong.
... FYI... make sure to check SOFTWARE UPDATE after the install, for any updates to your iLife applications that will make them more compatible with Lion.

Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.
Actually, you cannot download Snow Leopard. You downloaded a Snow Leopard updater.

I want to reinstall firefox for mac after uninstalling, but now whenever I download there is no corresponding file in my computer. I want firefox, help!

I was having lots of problems with my firefox and the upgrades never worked on my mac, so I uninstalled. Now whenever I try to reinstall it through the homepage (and the more page that lists versions by language and OS--I am using Safari to download), the download "finishes" but there is absolutely NO file anywhere on my computer that represents a downloaded file. No .dmg pops up on my desktop; even when I search my computer there is virtually no file. I've tried this now about 20 times. I just want to use firefox!

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].
<b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

Slow Mac after Mavericks Upgrade

So this has been brought up multiple times in this community, but I wanted to give it a shot with my specific info. I have attached my EtreCheck results for more info about my system. I downloaded Mavericks right when it came out, and I have been struggling with this macbook ever since. Many times it will take between 3-5 minutes to simply open an application like Mail or Safari, and when I restart the computer the problems never seem to subside. I have reset the SMC multiple times. The first reset I did, it seemed to fix the problem, but that only lasted for a few hours. After that, no reset has done anything at all. I'm thinking about upgrading my RAM to 8 GB, but I want to make sure that will actually fix the problem before I shell out the cash for that, and I was told to come here to see if anybody had any ideas. Additionally, when I look at the hard drive storage, it is indicating I have 16 GB of movies, which I know is not the case so I'm not really sure what is going on there, or maybe that is the problem. I have a windows partition that is completely filled, and have also thought about deleting the partiiton if that would alleviate some of the problems. Thanks for reading this and any help you can provide!!

Did you check your hard disk for errors?
Back up your documents and everything else important to you, not that there is any reason to believe your hard disk may be failing, but the symptoms you describe may presage an impending disk failure, and you should have backups anyway.
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
If you have a backup that you created prior to using CleanMyMac, now is the time to use it. For Time Machine, boot OS X Recovery, and at the Mac OS X Utilities screen, choose Restore from Time Machine Backup. Choose a date preceding the installation of CleanMyMac.
If you do not have a backup, create one now, verify that it is a viable backup of your essential software and files, then erase your Mac completely, reinstall OS X and your essential software. When you reinstall your essential software, you must do so from their original sources, not from a backup that may have been corrupted.
Using CleanMyMac2 to remove files and components of files it considers "junk" will corrupt a Mac. Nothing less than erasing your Mac and rebuilding it from the ground up will undo the effects of having used it, and its developer's instructions for uninstalling it are not completely effective. I know no other way to recover from having used it other than these recommendations.

Emails lost when moved from inbox to 'on my mac' after Mavericks upgrade

Hi, upgraded my MBP to Mavericks at the end of October. Everything seemed with the mail app at the time. A couple of days after i noticed that mails that appeared in the inbox that weren't cleared in that same session that they appeared would only show the subject line and nothing in the in box. When i tried to move it to 'on my mac' i would get an error indicating that 'it could not be moved the mailbox on my mac.' Read around discovered that doing a 'mailbox rebuild' would fix that. Then i started to notice that nothing appears in the 'on my mac' mail folders after the date of the upgrade. When i drag and drop from the inbox to the follder, the mail seems to move. But when search in the folder for it, its gone. And of course its gone from the inbox since imoved it. I only use the mail app to check my icloud email. No gmail.
Where have all my mails gone? Any one else seen this and know how to fix it?
Thanks

Please let me know if you find a solution, I should not have trusted Apple and stayed with my old operating system, but now too late!

Can't print wirelessly since Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4

I have an HP Officejet J4680 All-in-One, and have been printing wirelessly from my Macintosh (OS 10.5.7) since I purchased the printer in December 2008. However, after I installed the Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4, I suddenly lost the ability to print wirelessly. I've spent hours on my own and on the phone with HP trying to figure this out, with no success. When I uninstall and reinstall the printer, I can get to the point in the HP Setup Assistant in which the network configuration has been successfully downloaded to the printer (I see an IP address, Subnet Mask, etc.), but then I get an error message of "Device Not Reachable . . . please make sure that your Mac has access to the network and retry." My Mac does have access to the network because I can get on the internet wirelessly.
I've tried entering the IP address manually, etc.--but nothing has worked. It's as if the printer is on the network, and the computer is on the same network, but they somehow can't talk to each other. Anyone else notice this problem, and how do I solve it?? Thanks in advance for your time!

Hello Laura C. I haven't noticed any problems with my wireless connections to my Canon printers, at home or at work, and I have the Update 4 installed. I also cannot think how this update would have impacted your ability to connect to the printer, except maybe due to a reliance of the HP software using Java to operate. But this should not have stopped your existing connection from working, only a new connection...
Apologies in advance if you have already been through the following, but if you were successful in entering an IP address manually, I would then check that you can get a response from the printer. The best tool to use is Ping. Open Applications > Utilities > Network Utility. Here you will see the Ping tab, as well as several other IP tools.
Before you select Ping, select Info (it probably has defaulted to this). This pane shows you the current IP address settings for your Mac. Since you are using wireless, change the drop menu from en0 (which is Ethernet) to en1 (wireless). This will show your current IP address set in the Mac. Make a note of this.
Now select the Ping tab and enter the IP address of the HP. Change the number of pings to 4 and press the Ping button. If the addresses are correct and the network infrastructure working you should get a response. If you get something like " 4 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss", then that would explain the unreachable message.
The biggest cause of this symptom is subnetting. To explain further, an IP address consists of two parts, the subnet and network address. The subnet is determined by the subnet mask. If you have a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the your subnet is the first three sets of numbers in your IP address and the network address is the last number. For example, an IP address of 10.0.1.10 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 has a subnet of 10.0.1 and a network address of 10. For devices to communicate on a local network, they typically need to have the same subnet and a different network address. Can you confirm the subnets for the Mac and printer are the same and the network addresses are different.
If you get responses to the Pings, which indicates the IP addressing is okay, the other services like firewalls can stop some printer utilities from working correctly. Have you checked your System Preferences > Security > Firewall setting is set to allow all incoming connections?

ColdFusion 8 Fails to start after update Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 4

I have been using ColdFusion on a Mac for years. Now CF fails to start after I updated Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4. I usually start by typing in the terminal window sudo /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin/ColdFusion start.
There is a crash report but I don't know how to read it. See attached.
Please help, I need this working for my job.
Thanks...Colin

Dear Craig,
Macbook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB RAM
I'm sure that this is 64-bit
CF 8.0.1 Enterprise Build 3080
I had moved the Java SE 6 to the top in both Plugin and Applications. The
correct version is showing in the terminal window. See below.
Last login: Thu Jun 18 11:27:09 on ttys001
Beta-4:~ Colin$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_13"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_13-b03-211)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.3-b02-83, mixed mode)
Beta-4:~ Colin$
CF will not start. I have the activity monitor open, and when I start CF you
see it in the activity monitor for a few seconds as it starts up. When the
message process is completed in the terminal window CF disappears in the
activity monitor.
Any suggestions?
C
Hi, Colin,
My apologies but I forgot to ask 2 questions: (1) What kind of Mac you have
(Intel or PowerPC)? (2) What version of CF are you running and what installer
did you choose (8 or 8.0.1, 32-bit, 64-bit, etc.)?
To start, try the following:
1. Normally you'd shut CF down first ... but that's not necessary for you
2. Open Java Preferences again
3. Select Java SE 6 and move it (drag) to the top spot in both section (Applet
Plugin and Applications)
4. Open Terminal
5. Type java -version (you should see 1.6.0_13 as the new version)
6. Try to start CF again
This may not work (I've had issues with it) but it's technically how it's
supposed to work. With the Java Preferences utility, you're visually setting a
default JVM (you can do it with commands in Terminal but this is much faster
and easier).
If CF still won't start, look for the jvm.config file in your CF application
folder (try /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin or
/Applications/ColdFusion8/runtime/bin -- the latter is where a jvm.config file
is on my machine for a particular version of CF that's installed similar to
yours). You can override the JVM in this file but, hopefully, that won't be
necessary!
Best,
Craig

Failed update: "Java for Mac OS X 10.4, Release 6"

In successfully updating to OS X 10.4.11 from 10.4.10 the subject java update, "Java for Mac OS X 10.4, Release 6", came up from Software Update. In trying to install it, it stalled at the very end of the installation. It again failed on a second try. Later on, using Spotlight, I checked my existing Java version to already be Java 1.4.2 plug-in settings -- the target update from java 1.4. Do I really need this Java Release 6? I'm running Sarafi 3.0.4 and Netscape 7.2. Thanks.

I'd be suspicious about an aborted partial install myself, have you tried the stand alone installer?
I'd Verify the HD, Repair Permissions, then get...

Blocked by Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 3

Hi!
My Java application which uses network connections to external hosts now fails with errors like these:
connect failed: Connection refused
write1 failed: Broken pipe
write2 failed: Broken pipe
Done.
As this worked just fine prior to Apple's "Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 3" I think this update is the reason for my problems.
Can anyone explain what I need to add to my code to overcome these problems, please?
Alternatively a URL to such a tutorial would be welcome.
It seems the additional security of Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 3 means I need to add "something" to my working code (which, incidentally, still runs unchanged on an un-patched Mac)

Deary me
Embarrassingly, +mea culpa+
Amazing what doing it over with a reboot between the OS X patch and Java update can do with a final reboot - anyway, that seems to have fixed it.

HT5243 It says on the "Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8" pg that this download is for all users and supercedes all earlier versions. Yet to the right is says you HAVE to have 10.6.8 as a requirement. WHICH is it? Is it for all versions of 10.6 or not?

It says on the "Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8" pg that this download is for all users and supercedes all earlier versions. Yet to the right is says you HAVE to HAVE 10.6.8 as a requirement. WHICH is it? Is it for all versions of 10.6 or not? Why isnt this made more clear?
And question is STILL not answered. WHICH is to be downloaded and used?
I would like an answer.

Thank you for the clarification! It is really kinda circle-speaking to state on an information page to put forth info people need in that manner. It really does add to the confusion and frustration when you need a simple,
straight answer, such as you gave, and you dont get one. Kind of like that . . other... software company....
This rabbit hole still continues, though. I'm going to ladder it out, just to see for myself:
Have: MacBookPro / 2.4 GHz/ Intel Core i5/ running OS X 10.6.3 -
Need: latest version of Java, so Flash update can be loaded;
                              (want html5 to be the standard so badly, but client wants Flash)
Attempted: Tried to find Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 2 on Apple website. No Joy.
        Found:   Update 2 is proper update for Mac OS X 10.6.3. Could not find download on Apple website;
                       - No Joy.
Attempted: Tried to find Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8. Half Joy. Confusing, no straight info.
        Found:   In order to install update for Java, must update OS X from present 10.6.3 to 10.6.8
Attempted:   Tried to find update to OS X 10.6.3 to 10.6.8. on Apple website.
how far does the rabbit hole go?

Can I take it from your question that you needed to turn Java off?

As WZZZ and 71 say: you will know when you need it.
Java applets may be re-enabled by clicking the region labeled "Inactive plug-in" on a web page. If no applets have been run for an extended period of time, the Java web plug-in will deactivate.
seventy one - no, I only wanted to know if I should bother with this particular Software Update which has recently appeared.
Klaus - that is what worries me. If the Java web plug-in deactivates, does that mean it will not operate when I need it, i.e. banking websites?
WZZZ - thank you for that input, it answers how I will know when I need it.

What if I need to reinstall Java?

I made the mistake of trusting a Java applet and the site downloaded a .jar which apparently corrupted the " javaws cache". I went into the java cache and deleted the items that were installed and no longer get the error but I am concerned that i don't have a complete java...

Java for Mac OS X 1.5 Updates 2 & 3. Are they additive?

I need Java SE 6 on my Mac (Mac OS X 10.5.6) to run a Java tutorial on Eclipse. After searching around, I have these questions:
1) Is Java SE 6 avialable with OS X 10.5.6 (or earlier) update?
2) Are Java for Mac OS X Update 2 and Update 3 additive (i.e. Update 2 is pre-requisite for Update 3)?
3) If answer to 2 is TRUE, and I've installed only Update 3, how should I proceed to get all the latest update to Java for Mac OS X 1.5?
Thanks in advance.

2) Are Java for Mac OS X Update 2 and Update 3 additive (i.e. Update 2 is pre-requisite for Update 3)?
Almost all Apple updates will include any previous updates in the latest updater.
3) If answer to 2 is TRUE, and I've installed only Update 3
If 2 is true then you could not have installed Update 3 because it would require Update 2.

The Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 10 removed the Java plugin from Firefox 5.0. How do I re-install it?

I've just installed Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 10 and can no longer run Java Applets from Firefox 5.0

Dear Craig,
Macbook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB RAM
I'm sure that this is 64-bit
CF 8.0.1 Enterprise Build 3080
I had moved the Java SE 6 to the top in both Plugin and Applications. The
correct version is showing in the terminal window. See below.

Beta-4:~ Colin$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_13"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_13-b03-211)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.3-b02-83, mixed mode)
Beta-4:~ Colin$
CF will not start. I have the activity monitor open, and when I start CF you
see it in the activity monitor for a few seconds as it starts up. When the
message process is completed in the terminal window CF disappears in the
activity monitor.
Any suggestions?

Hi, Colin,
My apologies but I forgot to ask 2 questions: (1) What kind of Mac you have
(Intel or PowerPC)? (2) What version of CF are you running and what installer
did you choose (8 or 8.0.1, 32-bit, 64-bit, etc.)?
To start, try the following:
1. Normally you'd shut CF down first ... but that's not necessary for you
2. Open Java Preferences again
3. Select Java SE 6 and move it (drag) to the top spot in both section (Applet
Plugin and Applications)
4. Open Terminal
5. Type java -version (you should see 1.6.0_13 as the new version)
6. Try to start CF again
This may not work (I've had issues with it) but it's technically how it's
supposed to work. With the Java Preferences utility, you're visually setting a
default JVM (you can do it with commands in Terminal but this is much faster
and easier).
If CF still won't start, look for the jvm.config file in your CF application
folder (try /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin or
/Applications/ColdFusion8/runtime/bin -- the latter is where a jvm.config file
is on my machine for a particular version of CF that's installed similar to
yours). You can override the JVM in this file but, hopefully, that won't be
necessary!
Best,
Craig
