Cannot install Java 7 update 11 on 10.8.2

On 1/15/2013 update 11 for Java 7 appeared. I tried to install it on 10.8.2 Mountain Lion. I ran the installer and it says that installation was successful, but it really doesn't install. Java provides a check to answer the question "do I have Java" and the check shows that it is not installed. I have tried this several times with both a Safari browser and a Firefox browser -- same negative result. I worked yesterday for 2 1/2 hours with people at the genius bar of an apple store with negative results, even after reinstalling 10.8.2 and then trying to install Java 7u11. I sent feedback to Java but so far no response.

Folks,
I've been seeing the same thing. And I have three platforms, iMac, MacBook, and MacBook Pro. And all three have the same result. Needless to say I think I've become an expert on doing OS X clean installs (LOL).
@marc265, I will attempt your process and post my results.
However, this is how it went down for me:
I had cleaned installed the OS and began making sure it was patched through Apple. I then began installing Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEPv12) per my work requirements. It could not execute LiveUpdate because it needed Java. I did a Terminal command and as found, no Java installed. OS X offerred to download and install from Apple. I installed and ran the Terminal command (java -version). It now showed Java 6 installed.
SEPv12 updated, problem resolved.
I go to my NAS (WD My Book Live), and I am unable to open directories. Error states Java issue, needs most current version. I check with Apple, and I have most current available (unless I'm unaware of a special link to some download). No updates on App Store. So I go straight to Java. Get teh download 7u11, and execute. It updates and states, "Successful." Reattempted to access directories via Safari located on my NAS, same Java error. I go to Terminal and execute the "java -version" and it state v6!
I tried the Java test (oracle.com site) and it says Plug-In blocked.
I verified Safari and Java settings - No go thus far.
But what is weird is that OS X keeps responding that v6 is installed after I keep reinstalling v7u11.
I hope I didn't loose anyone with my rambling.

I recently installed Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin, and now can't play any videos from any website in Mozilla, but Google Chrome works.

Cannot play any video from any website in Mozilla after installing Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin. However, I can play videos from Google Chrome and also from Internet Explorer. For example, when I'm trying to play a you tube video in Mozilla, a black screen comes up with following error message: "An error has occurred. Please try again later."
(This is like the Wizard of Oz -- when the man comes to the little window in the door and says to Dorothy, "Come back tomorrow." )

This may be caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update.

Failure to install Java 6 update 20

Today, as well as for the past month, I have been living without Java because every time I try to install Java 6 update 20, and any other update before that, it was interrupted during installation and to try again later, but it still will not work later. Does anyone know how i can fix this problem?

Hi Priscilla,
afaik B1 native do not use Java at all. It only requirer MS .net framework. So perhaps you use an addon, which requires Java.
Then you should ask the addon manufacture.

I cannot install the new update iOS 8.2 on my husban'd Iphone 4S

I cannot install the new update iOS 8.2 on my husban'd Iphone 4S.
I hit "Install Now"
"Agree" to the terms
And then it does nothing, but freezes up. I swipe away the page to try again with the same results over and over.
Solutions I have tried:
I also have connected to iTunes, to download the new software, and no luck!
A system reboot by powering the phone off does not work. There is plenty of free space on his phone.
On the other hand, My Iphone 4S updated no problem doing exactly what it is suppose to do with updates.
So any help would be appreciated.

Try resetting the device: Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Slide to Unlock screen redisplays, hook the device up to iTunes, make sure that your husband's Apple/iTunes/iCloud ID is signed on to iTunes, then try the update again.
Cheers,

Install Java for Updated Maverick to 10.9.5

Updated N95 software now cannot install Java apps

Hi
I recently (like yesterday) upgraded my N95 8GB to software version V20.0.016. Restored my content. My Gmail and Opera applications were no longer installed so I downloaded them but cannot install. Every time I try and install software either via my PC or directly I get the extremely informative message 'Unable to install'
Any assistance gratefully received.

Marylanda....perhaps you need to reread the original problem. The problem has nothing to do with rearranging apps within a collection. The problem is that when plugged into iTunes (to sync) and trying to remove apps under that format, the "remove" button is no longer available to click. It's "grayed" out. You still have the ability to Install apps that way but not "remove" them.
I had a friend suggest that I turn off Restrictions on my phone, thinking that might be causing the problem. However, even after doing that, I still cannot "remove" apps while plugged in to iTunes.
Someone really needs to help with this situation, since it appears to be happening to more and more people.

I cannot install Java 6 on my i mac with mountain lionoperating system.

I recently updated from snow leopard to mountain lion os.
I cannot open the internet.Every time i open my internet i am prompted to install Je 6 runtime software which i think is not ain the ox mountainliopn?
How do i go about installing it Please help!

Go to the Utilities folder in your Applications folder and open Java Preferences. If it opens just fine, check the box labeled "Enable applet plug-in and Web Start Applications." (For security reasons, Java will be disabled after 30 days of not being used. If you enable Java here, I highly recommend you disable it in your web browser, as it has proven to be a serious security issue.) If not, you will be prompted to install Java. Click the Install button.

Can't install Java 7 update 11 on Firefox 18.0

I had Java 7 update 10, which has the 0-day exploit. Oracle released Java 7 update 11. I installed that and uninstalled Java 7 update 10. Now I can't get Firefox to recognize Java. It tells me that Java needs to be installed, but when I try to install the plug in (Java has been installed twice now), it fails. Now I have no Java.

There is no JAVA/FX in the add / remove - also cannot even remove the JAVA that is listed!!1
Thanks for any help

I cannot uninstall itunes version 10.7.0.21 from my laptop use of that I also cannot install the new update.

I cannot uninstall iTunes version 10.7.0.21 from my laptop (windows 7), therefore I cannot install the new iTunes version....!
Every time I try to do it, a "message" from the windows installer pops up saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable", I try to find the installation package "iTunes.msi" but I can never find it either...!
The funny part is, I can still use this version, but I would like the have the update, which can make my computer much faster than now!
Can someone help me out??

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Cannot download Java 7 update 9 32-bit

I am trying to download the most up to date version of Java (Java 7 update 9 32-bit) on a desktop computer running Windows 7 Pro (SP1). I have attempted to use both the online and offline methods of running the update procedure with no success.
I have attempted to delete all previous installations, and there are no listings for previous versions of Java in the “Programs and Features” control panel, and there is no separate control panel to install new versions of Java with.
Despite all of these attempts I continue to get the following message after the installer has been loaded:
“The wizard was interrupted before Java 7 update 9 could be completely installed. To complete installation at another time, please run setup again.”
Any help/suggestions are appreciated.

Its Windows 7, not Windows 95So what does this have to do with anything? Although what you are implying is valid, there are still some cases where reboot is necessary. This is especially true for example if the Win MSI installer is not used properly and/or if a file is unreleasably locked during the installation.
The fact that files may be locked during an installation is still possible (although should be rare). The problem is less about rebooting and more about people understanding what they are doing. Some users (people running the installers) don't close all processes which might have file locks on the software they are trying to uninstall (or update). If they would just ensure that all processes which might use the JRE (e.g. browsers) were closed (double check in the task manager) before running the installer, the installer won't complain and reboot would not be necessary.

Cannot Install Java

I recently purchased an HP computer with Windows Vista premium. I am having so much trouble trying to install java. I've tried to install java 1.4.2, 1.5, and 1.6 but all give me these same error messages (in this exact order)
Failure Setting File's Time/Date Stamp
Java(TM) Update fails to apply changes to your system
Error 1722 There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program run as part of the set up did not finish as expected. Conttact your support personnel or package vendor
These happen when I install the online or offline version of the download.
Does anybody know a way around this? Can it be fixed?
Thank you

There is at least one other report of a 1722 error that involvs HP and Vista. See the 3rd entry here:
http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&c2coff=1&q=java+hp+vista+compatibility
Take a look at the HP support forums or customer service pages.

Cannot install programs or updates

when i try to install software or updates, when it gets to the stage where you are asked to select a destination volume, i have no choices. just a blank white box. and the continue button is disabled, until i select a destination. but no volume drive is showing up. thus i cannot continue with the installations.
any one know whats causing this problem?

Follow Carolyn's suggestions, particularly regarding repairing your hard disk from the install disk.
Only when this has been successful should you bear the following in mind when updating/installing:
There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them 10.4.10. compliant. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.

Must install Java 6 Update 7 plugin.

We have a web app that is a core component of our business and it will only run with Java 6 Update 7, It has been tested up to Update 17. From what I finding through the forums, helps and other sources it seems the Firefox 19.0 will not allow this plugin to be installed. I can work with this mess related to allowing one website access to the Plugin, but if Firefox can block the install of the product I would hope that there is some method to over-ride the hard coded language that does not allow java 6 installs if they are older than Update 31.
I would simply switch browsers but there are other considerations that makes the browser swap a bit problematic.

Old Java is not safe on untrusted or compromised sites, so you should be cautious about using it on the wilds of the web. You might consider creating two parallel instances of Firefox, one for your app (with old Java) and another for regular browsing (with newer Java or no Java) in order to limit your vulnerability.
That said, for your "vulnerable" profile, note that Firefox uses a data file to identify unsafe add-ons. By default, a new blocklist.xml is downloaded every 24 hours. This article has more info on the file and related settings: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Blocklist.xml]. For anyone disabling the blocklist, it becomes more important to take manual action to root out old other insecure plugins manually. The [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugin Check site] can help with that.
Regarding running multiple Firefox instances/profiles in parallel, see, for example, [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/922363 Two Firefox at the same time, (one with images, other without)?]
