Does the latest MacBook Air OS come with  Java Development Kit, version 1.6?

I need to purchase a laptop  to use for an online Java class.  The website I was given to download JDK 1.6 does not include a download for Mac OS.  I have heard that JDK 1.6 is part of Mountain Lion.  Can anyone confirm that, and if so, how is it accessed?  Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Java doesn't come with Mac OS X since the Lion release, so you will have to install Java manually after setting up the MacBook.
You just have to install Java 6 from Apple > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572

    A new MacBook Pro from the Apple store or online Apple.com will most likely have Lion 10.7 installed.

  • Does macbook air computers come with antivirus protection?

    I bought a mac book air 9/2013.  Do macbook air computers come with antivirus protection?

    Do macbook air computers come with antivirus protection?
    Its operating system does. OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
    A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
    Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
    Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
    Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
    Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
    Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
    Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
    Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
    Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
    Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
    Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
    Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
    Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
    Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
    Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
    Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
    If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
    Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
    The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
    OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
    Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
    If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
    Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
    Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
    Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

  • Will the Creative Suite CS6 run well on the latest MacBook Air?

    I am in the market for a mac and I would like to know how much performance would I be sacrificing for portability in choosing an Air. I currently run a Dell Studio 15 with a 1st-gen Quad-core i7 1.6gHz with 8GB of RAM. Obviously I cannot compare the two for various reasons, so that is just a gauge for what I am accostomed to. I have been told that an Air can run Photoshop, but not everyone pushes the program to the same degree or in the same way. Is there a quantifiable threshold for what the MacBook Air can handle in Photoshop, such as performance editing RAW files vs performance doing 3D work or Animation work? How does it perform running Photoshop and say, Illustrator, at the same time?
    I understand it may be too soon to tell...
    Signed,
    High Expectations...

    Since you're asking about Photoshop performance on the latest MacBook Air, you'll get more responses if you post in the Photoshop forum.

  • How well does the 2013 MacBook Air 13" Handle Adobe Creative Cloud Program's?

    How Well Does The 13" MacBook Air Handle The Adobe Creative Cloud Apps?
    I'm A Visual Communication Student But I Would Like Extremely Portable Setup Hence The MacBook Air 13", The Main Program's I Use Are:
    Photoshop
    InDesign
    Illustrator
    And I Also Use Dreamweaver & After Effects From Time To Time.....
    How Would A Top Spec 2013 13" Air Cope Running These Program's??

    What about the backpack? Did you have it in one often?
    College and notebooks = backpacks usually 9 times out of 10,  was that the case?
    Your MacBook Air doesnt like roommates in your backpack
    Many collects students or people in general are fond of using non-idealized backpacks (without a padded laptop compartment) along with their books. Sandwiching books around your notebook etc. is an extremely bad idea and can leads to your LCD screen being destroyed when heavy textbooks are pressing against same, or when dropping your backpack, these books slam into your Macbook causing great potential for damage.
    ~"large white blotch and pixilated lines running down the screen."
    That indicates a significant impact.
    ~~"They kept telling me it was "excess pressure". I told them it was impossible, it would be normal pressure"
    What do you mean by "normal pressure"   ANY pressure to the LCD is abnormal pressure.

  • Does the adobe photoshop elements 11 come with an instruction manual

    does the adobe photoshop elements 11 come with an instruction manual

    Are you just starting with PSE and no previous experience? If so I sympathise because I found the Adobe Help function very frustrating and unhelpful because it is features based rather than functionality in grades of expertise.
    Start with tutorials on the Organiser work space and then Editor work space to familiarise yourself with the functions of the work spaces. However be aware that the you will not grasp full functionality until you have used PSE for a while.
    If you are starting out wanting to process images then I found the concept of "workflow" the most useful way to approach PSE. That is;
    Import images from camera
    Sort images into ones worth processing. I use my camera's software to do this. Use a star rating. (PSE recognises this).
    Import to PSE for processing
    Process RAW images (if applicable).
    Process converted images (PSD of TIFF probably the best). Use guided edit to start with.
    Save processed images to JPEG for printing.
    Hope this helps.

  • Does the photography package (Photoshop & Lightroom) come with cloud storage?

    Does the photography package (Photoshop & Lightroom) come with cloud storage?

    Hi
    I'm really puzzled by conflicting information regarding cloud storage. 2GB seems like a really tiny amount. I assume, therefore, that people must only use the package for editing photos and then must use another service to store them in the cloud, as 2GB surely only amounts to about 500 photos, which I'd use in a couple of days. What would people's typical workflow be?
    I'd read somewhere that there's unlimited lightroom web storage, but this seems not to be the case.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

  • Does the 5th gen iPod also come with the fingerprint ID scan ?

    Does the 5th gen iPod also come with the fingerprint ID scan ?

    All the lock schemes on iOS devices are just "privacy locks." If a determined individual with any degree of competence and resources has physical access or control of your iOS device, you're screwed.  For example, there are devices in the hands of law enforcement that can read the data off a "locked" iOS device almost instantly. You can bet there are dishonest people who have access to similar equipment.
    Your real security in this kind of situationi is not to lose your device.  It's a lot like keeping track of your wallet.  If you lose it, you're in trouble, but we're pretty good at keeping track of this kind of thing. Not perfect, but pretty good.
    In other words, the fingerprint scanner is fine, and more convenient.

  • Does the 2012 MacBook Air overheat or get hot to touch?

    I currently own the original MacBook air, and running a basic word document for like 20mins causes my MacBook to get really hot and the fan is quite loud. But I love the MBA so I was wanting to know has this problem been solved with the new MBA? Or does it still overheat. And how much can you do before it get really hot? Like can you run programs like CAD without it heating up?

    Install iStat pro (download from the Internet) and it will display your MBA internal temperatures and fan speed.  Then open Activity Monitor set to show 'All Processes' and '%CPU' to display values from High to low.  Look for applications using a large CPU percentage.  You may be experiencing a 'runaway application'.
