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? -
My Ipod Touch Is Stuck On A Screen That Says Ios 6 And I Have Tried Numerous Times To Reset It And It Still Is Stuck On The Screen...I Don't Know What To Do!
Connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
If necessary:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I cannot close or import or any function to iphoto. I have been getting the same message for many days "Photos are being imported to the photo library. Please wait for import to complete." I do not know where the photos would be importing from. How do I get it to proceed?
After Force Quitting, as LarryHN recommended,
Select the iPhoto Library in the Finder. By default it is in your Pictures folder.
Ctrl-click or right-click the iPhoto lIbrary. Select "Show package contents" from the panel, that will pop up.
Look for a folder named "Importing" or "Import". Remove this folder, but don't touch anything else.
Then launch iPhoto again.
If iPhoto now is working again, check the folder you removed, if there are any photos that you want to keep and save them. -
I have tried turning off iclowd and other things that would automatically upload photos but that still didnt work. I can not upgrade my computer because it wants to restart the computer, but iphoto stops the shut down process. It says I need to wait for the download to complete. But I can not find anything uploading. please help.
It has said this for about a month now and I would just hide iPhoto since I could not close it. I have not needed to turn off my computer until now. But now it is a problem because I can not upgrade my computer

I suggest that you try to use Tiny Umbrella to kick your device out of recovery
The link to download Tiny Umbrella is shown below
http://thefirmwareumbrella.blogspot.com/
On the right hand side of the link you will see links to download Tiny Umbrella
After downloading and opening tiny umbrella, Click on exit out of recovery. Hope that works for you. If it doesnt work, try to write a detailed description of your problem and what is appearing on your screen etc and we will go from there. Good Luck -
Can anyone please help guide me in the right direction to finish reactivating my phone?
Connect it to your computer via the supplied sync cable and restore.

Zen Touch wont shutdown and everytime i reset it its stuck on a screen that says 'Firmware Probl
Hi, i searched the forum but theres a lot to look through and i couldnt see a problem like mine, but if this has already been mentioned then if someone could link me that would be great.
Basicly I own a Creative Zen Touch MP3 player and its been working well until today when for some reason, when adding songs to a playlist in Creative Jukebox i got a message saying it could not add the songs. I shutdown the programme, restarted it and the same happened. I shutdown the programme, disconnected the player and got a 'playback' error everytime i tried to play a song. I reset the player but now it just goes to a screen with a picture of a computer screeny box thing and says 'Firmware Problem', i cant shut it down in this state and it isnt detected by the computer so i cant install any new firmware or drivers etc. Im not sure what firmware version i have (how do i find out) but if it helps i bought the player on the 22/0/2004 and havent updated anything for it as of yet.
Any help would be really apprieciated. Thanks.
LozAs per the?BEFORE you post, READ THIS FIRST (FAQ) post take a look here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net.

my 3g fell in toilet thursday, dried out and worked yesterday, now its stuck on a screen that says emergency call. wont connect to itunes, doesnt change when turned off or plugged in, any ideas
If you are eligible for a discounted upgrade through your carrier, this would be a great time to consider it. The phone is most probably permanently damaged.

What should I do if the iphoto keeps on saying that "Plz wait for import to complete" when i click the close button but it is not importing photos? How can I close the iPhoto? I try to switch my mac off but it doesn't work. Thanks.
You should be able to select Force Quit from the menu beneath the Apple icon in Finder
and choose to Quit iPhoto from there, without messing up the Mac OS X in the process.
OS X - Support
Not sure if rebuilding the iPhoto library would help this issue. However if you had to
turn off the computer without the correct method (unplug, etc; instead of menu choice)
the system may have accrued damages and should be checked, maybe repaired by
use of the Disk Utility in the system. Or restart the computer in Safe Boot mode, then
run 'repair disk permissions' while it is running in that reduced mode; then restart after.

•OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
Suggestions on how to use Safe Mode in article, to resolve issues, may be helpful.
There likely are other means to rectify troublesome applications, including reinstall.
Be sure to backup your music, image, video, and other work on an external drive
or suitable device as a precaution against loss should there be a hard drive failure.

I have MacBook 4.1 laptop with a Version 10.5.8 software. Does this software version support iCloud? Can this MacBook be updated to the latest software version?
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. The price is $19.99.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications. -
