Mac 10.9.5 trying to launch Illustrator CS6 for first time and prompts Java even though I have Java 8 installed.

Mac 10.9.5 trying to launch Illustrator CS6 for first time and won't launch, prompts for Java 6 even though I have Java 8 installed!
Apple says Java 6 is very insecure and not to use it.  I have the latest Java installed.  Why won't Illustrator launch?  What else can I do?

tm,
I believe you should be able to get round the issue by following this:

It is even more thoroughly described in this thread, see post #3 on by gator soup:

  • Trying to run Vertex vprtmupd for first time

    I am trying to run the Vertex vprtmupd for the first time on a fresh install on Linux. I am on 11.5.10.2 and have run the "Quantum Program Update Installer" with no problem ran great!
    I tried to run "Quantum Data Update Installer" and it failed with this error:
    HR_6882_HRPROC_ASSERT
    LOCATION py3vntsetup:2
    APP-PAY-06882: Assertion failure detected at location py3vntsetup:2.
    Cause: an internal error has occurred at location py3vntsetup:2.
    Action: please contact your Oracle customer representative.
    I then tried to run it manuly by running "vprtmupd" and this is what happened:
    Select a Monthly Update Function
    1. - Update Payroll Tax Database
    2. - Exit Program
    Select: 1
    Beginning Payroll Tax Monthly Update Process.
    Enter Data Source: /u01s/app/oracle/appl/pay/11.5.0/vendor/quantum/data

    information entered and retry.
    Press Enter to continue...
    WARNING! The update process will destroy the contents of the
    current database before it creates a new one. Please make
    a backup before proceeding.
    Any idea? It seems like I need the tax database created before the "vprtmupd" program will work. How do you create the tax database for the first time?

    Chris,

  • HT1551 Trying to connect to tv for first time. TV does not recognize device, saying nothing is connected, when it is. Help!

    I am trying to connect Apple TV for the first time. I went to my HDMI settings on my t.v., and tried to update so it would recognize the Apple TV. Everything is plugged in correctly, but the t.v. is saying that no HDMI devices were found. Help?

    not sure about how different tv handle it but i go into the input source settings on my tv
    and choose which input source is the active one
    if i did that for the hdmi port my appletv was connected to and it said no signal then I would suspect that the tv could not handle the resolution the appletv display in and I would test with another tv if the same problem was present there then I woudl suspect that the appletv was defect

  • My browser suddenly always opens on the page it was on when it was shut down last and uses tabs even though I have them turned off. I have tried reinstalling.

    I have my browser set to open on comcast.net webpage and to never use tabs. I have been using firefox for years and am very familiar with it. Suddenly it has started opening on the last page it was on when shut down, and has started using tabs. When I delete Firefox from my computer, it still remembers all my settings. I had this problem once before years ago and ended up having to wipe my entire drive to fix it. I would like to avoid a drive wipe this time. I need to know how to get ALL of the browsers information deleted from the registry so I can get a truly fresh install. And yes, I have tried all the normal avenues and am pretty computer savvy. Please help before I go nuts. I am running the most recent version, but going back to older versions didn't help either. Thanks.
    Bob Smith

    Another possibility is that Firefox keeps crashing during shutdown, and so Firefox is recovering from a crash every time. To diagnose this, you can change how Firefox recovers from a crash: instead of restoring the previous session, it will show a list of what you had open so you can be selective or bypass it altogether.
    Here's where you change that:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''sess''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes''' preference and change the value from 1 to 0 and OK that.
    ''Note: Please don't change any other sessionstore preferences without researching them first.''

  • HT4623 I tried watching YouTube videos stopping all the time and starting up even bought abode flash app just bought this iPad used is it junk

    I cant get videos to just play without stooping and starting on YouTube.Should I update ISO?

    I have noted in several posts as have a few of the others here,, Bob Timmons being one who has tested it, that the new one was no better than the old ones. I bought a new AEBS 5th Gen to test against all my old TC's up to Gen 3.. IMHO they are all about the same.. and my old Thomson G wireless router beats them handsomely at the other end of the house. ie the range is to be frank, pathetic. I don't have a Mac laptop to test with.. so just concluded it needs the exact match to get results like anandtech article..
    I would do the following.
    1. Download and use 5.6 utility.. you are lucky you are still on Lion as ML no longer can use v5 utility.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    2. Set wireless names to short, no spaces, pure alphanumeric. Set a different name to 5ghz. Its range is always short.. so don't expect too much. Make sure the output is set to 100%.. and the region is correct.
    3. Lock the wireless channel for 2.4ghz.. test the available channels.. in Nepal I have no idea what is allowed.. but 1, 6, 11 are the main non-overlapping channels for most of the world. Power output maybe different though and the TP-Link might be set to higher output country.. apple do not allow that. Check what country the tp-link is set to.
    4. The location of the TC must be as good as possible.. The antennas are around the 3 sides but the most important is in front.. try to place the TC so the laptop is facing the front of the TC, with nothing in between.
    I am pretty sure you are never going to get the output any higher than it is now.. I still use the old wireless G Thomson signal in the other end of the house. And even running 3 TC at once (when I am repairing power supplies.. makes no difference.. they are all invisible).
    Either return the TC as unsuitable.. or simply use it as a backup.
    The TP-Link can be used in wan bypass to provide wireless.. just turn off the TC wireless.

  • Using my hotspot for first time and when configuring devise it asked for MAC address

    I dont have a MAC. I want to use this on a  Mini laptop. I am adding my first device. I live in the country and dont think any one elses computer will hook to this hotspot. . I am leaving on vacation tomorrow and need for this too work.

    Personally, I use the MAC filter. Go into network on your mini and you can find that devices MAC address.
    MAC address has nothing to do with Apple.

  • Recently purchased new Mac Book Pro.  Synced iPod touch with it for first time, only purchased songs transferred, non purchased were erased.  iPod was backed up to iCloud.  Is there a way to see songs in iCloud and download to Mac Book?

    I'm trying to buy iTunes for first time and can't answer security questions.
    <Personal Information Edited by Host>

    The page that you posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset (these are user-to-user forums).
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • Hi, I am trying to launch illustrator after downloading it onto a Mac. I go to apps in finder and click on Adobe Illustrator but there are no files - such as configuration etc. What should I do?

    Hi, I am trying to launch illustrator after downloading it onto a Mac. I go to apps in finder and click on Adobe Illustrator but there are no files - such as configuration etc. What should I do?

    Thanks for responding, I downloaded the Creative Cloud Installer which is sitting under Devices in my Finder and then installed the Ai app which is appearing under Applications in the finder. I notice that in the launch tutorial there is the Adobe Creative Cloud sitting in the Apps folder above Ai - I don't have this. Hmm what to do?

    You are genius! I search all over the net and had a long chat with Apple without success. 30 minutes after posting the Abobe Illustrator forum, I have a link that works!! Many thanks.

    I've tried it several times now over the past few days.

    Hi 99jon,
    Many thanks for that. Had been going through this list yesterday and now again today:
    Ref  Solution 1: Lightroom is at its latest update
    Ref  Solution 2: It's interesting how I cannot find the Preferences file anywhere on my mac. (new mac pro, OS 10/9.2) . . .
    Ref  Solution 3: Lightroom doesn't allow me to do anything after the error message appears
    Ref  Solution 4: don't have any Nik Software plug-ins
    Ref  Solution 5: checked permissions and changed all to "Read & Write" - makes no difference
    Ref  Solution 6: I don't have a different user account on my mac.
    Not sure what else to do.

  • I have installed the most recent version of Snow Leopard on my MAC, and I am trying to install Mountain Lion from the Apple Store.  It will not install, because it says I do not have 2GB of memory, even though I have over 200GB available.  Please help.

    I have installed the most recent version of Snow Leopard on my MAC, and I am trying to install Mountain Lion from the Apple Store.  It will not install, because it says I do not have 2GB of memory, even though I have over 200GB available.  Please help.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    One thing is the memory, and another thing is the hard disk space. You are telling me that you have 200 GB of free space on the hard disk, but the App Store is telling you that you have to install 2 GB of memory or more on your Mac if you want to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
    First of all, open  > About this Mac > More Info, and copy "Model Identifier" here, so we can know what Mac you have got and how much memory you can install.
    We recommend to buy the memory in OWC or Crucial (Crucial is cheaper and offers the same compatibility warranty as OWC) because you won't probably have any problem with the memory you buy there
