Download and install java - help

hi all,
i am just entering into the world of java.
i need some help in downloading and installing java.
i found a lot of downloads like j2sdk and jdk6update7 and some more.
i downloaded both and installed one and tried to run a sample program.
in jdk i couldnt find javac compiler
in j2sdk i could not connect the path variable
i am really confused to start things - can anyone help me for a kick off start in java (in win xp)
cheers
mike

Hi,
From your message, i think u didnt set the classpath dats y the javac din work
Go to your jdk directory\bin file
Eg. C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_07\bin
Next set the environment variable
My Computer -->Properties -->Advanced-->Environment Variables
Look for path and add the jdk directory\bin into it and u can start using javac to compile.
Best Regards

    Bank of America requires Firefox 5 on Mac for their CashPro online treasury management. I need to find version FF 5.0 to download and install. Help! I just need a link to version 5.0 so I can install it. The website throws and error when using 6.0.#. BofA Tech Support said I needed to downgrade and that was the ONLY solution. I hate large corporations. If someone could provide the link I would appreciate it.

    All versions:
    ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
    BUT keep in mind that the older versions aren't supported any longer and are missing hundreds of security patches that are in the latest versions of Firefox.
    thank you

  • Downloading and installing Java

    I recently got a new computer with Win XP Pro with SP 2, and I tried to run my old jdk 1.2.1 apps (like appletviewer and javac), but none of them work. For example, if I run "appletviewer drawTest.html" from my command line like I've always done it, I get an error msg saying that "appletviewer.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close" with the option to send an error report to Microsoft about the problem. I am assuming that my old jdk 1.2.1 does not work with Win XP like it did with my old Win2kPro, and that I need to d/l and install a new version of the Java Development Kit. The problem is, I've been "out of the loop" so long that when I go to the Sun site, I don't know which file to d/l. Would it be the JDK 6u1 or what? I'm sorry if I sound really dumb. I'm still a n00b, and your help will be greatly appreciated.

    You should be fine downloading version 6 of the JDK. Since there have tremendous changes and deprecations since 1.2, you should get a more valid warnings when you run your applet but not his kind of error.

  • Can you establish a Java enviroment w/o downloading and installing JAVA?

    Hello,
    I am a fifteen-year-old, JAVA compatible teenager in Northern VA. I am trying to find a simple and easy way to run a JAVA application (using the ".class" files, of course) on a windows platform, hopefully without have to go through a complex install procedure. Is there some way to do this? Is this what the JRE is for? The Java plug-in? Any and all help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
    -Stephen Mouring Jr.

    Basically, the JRE is as easy to install as any other application. You just double click it, run though the wizard, and bingo.
    The easiest way to distribute the JRE is to burn it onto CDs, and give them away with your app. Then users won't even have to download it. You could call it a driver ;-)
    Installing the Java applications can be a bit harder. The easiest way to do it is with Java WebStart (included with the JRE), but IMO this isn't really reliable yet.
    Distribute your apps in a JAR file, and make a self extracting exe that can copy the JAR to the Program Files directory, and copy a shortcut to it onto the desktop. That is, at least theoretically the easiest way.
    The hard part is not installing the JRE. The hard part is making your app invoke the JRE. Basically, to make your app have an icon on the desktop and everything automatically, you'll need some kind of installer. How you go about this really depends on what kind of user base you want to distribute apps to.
    Hope this helps.--

  • How to download and install Adobe Help?

    I have recently noticed that my Adobe CS5 Apps have begun to no longer start Adobe Help when clicking on the "Help..." menu but directing me straight to the web.
    Is this expected behaviour?
    I am in need of offline help here and would greatly appreciate any assistance in solving this. I tried to locate the Adobe Help download package but could not find it anywhere.
    Thanks!

    Have you downloaded the content in Adobe help.exe, if the content is avaiable locally then it will look online.
    So, download the help file first and then select the option to view the contact Locally.
    Check these Link , they may help :-

  • Just downloaded and Installed, can't find javac.exe

    I think the subject pretty much says it. I've downloaded and installed java. Trying to follow the tutorial, but I cant find a "javac.exe" file on my computer?
    What did i do wrong?

    Dont be impressed of the download-time. Forte is very nice, but you need much RAM and a good processor. I use 300Mhz and 128Ram, in this case it was definately to slow. now I use JCreator 2.0... it�s free and has not such nice functions like Forte, but it opens in 3 seconds, while Forte always needed about 1 min !

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • My updates are failing.  Adobe application manager may be damaged.  I have downloaded and installed a new copy and the problem persists.   Please help.

    I am trying to update Photoshop CS6 in order to read my camera's RAW files.  It is a camera that is supported by Adobe Photoshop CS6.  However, when I try to get the Adobe Application Manager to update the software, it fails to do so.  (The spinning wheel tells me it is checking for updates and then quits, saying that "Update Failed - Updates could not be applied.  Adobe Application Manager may be damaged.  Download and install a new copy of Adobe Application Manager.")
    I have tried to reinstall the Adobe Application Manager 8.0, which gives me the following error message "We've encountered the following issues.  Installer failed to initialize.  Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."  However, when I go to the link provided to download the Adobe Support Advisor, this piece of software NO LONGER EXISTS. "
    The Adobe Support Advisor has been discontinued
    The Adobe Support Advisor tool was used to analyze installer log and system information associated with installation errors. The tool has been replaced with improved installation support mechanisms. Please visit Adobe Support section for Knowledge base articles around Installation."
    So, I have gone to the forums and took the recommended step to update my software manually - getting the update Photoshop_CS6_13_0_6upd-2.dmg.  However, this update also fails stating that my Adobe Application Manager may be damages.  Download and install a new copy of Adobe Application Manager.  Which puts me right back where I started.  
    I have also taken the step of completely reinstalling Photoshop CS6.  This did not solve the problems outlined above.  
    Please help!

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
