Has anyone updated to Java 8? Any issues? Is it needed?

What is it for and why do I need it?

It will only be specifically needed if you have an Application that requires it.
Java 8 is the latest version and has a few performance tweeks...

    Has anyone updatd to Java 2 SE 5.0 Release 3 in order to play Pogo games?  My games won't load on my iMac.

    I have tested Struts successfully on iAS6.5. I have no problem in running the application. There is no issue with 6.5. can you provide the logs while running the struts.war file, so that I may be able to find what the exact problem is.

    I had this problem.  I held down the power switch to power down completely.  Takes a few seconds.  Then use the power switch to turn on.  Might take a couple goes.

    I wish I fully understood your post, but perhaps you should try re-downloading. Are you trying to download the 10.7.3 update? If so, then try downloading OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo).

  • Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Yes, BUT...
    ... there are many problems that are really easy to eliminate by replacing the Hard drive, including ones that have nothing to do with actual Drive Hardware failure. These include corrupted install of Mac OS X, its EFI partition, clobbered partition tables, or the appearance of Bad Blocks in a critical area.
    Any of these problems can sometimes be eliminated by re-initializing the entire drive and writing Zeroes, and re-installing from scratch. The trouble is, this process takes hours to complete, and is not guaranteed to be successful -- you may still need a new drive after all that effort.
    I learned from my Plumber that consumers have no appetite for solutions that might work, and detest return visits for any related problems whatsoever. You or your friend may have had your drive replaced, not because it actually failed, but because the situation was troublesome, and the provider thought you would not tolerate anything less than a crisp, complete fix on the first attempt. And based on the cost of technician time, it may have even been cheaper that way.

  • Has anyone with sprint have time/date issues as well as imessage function automatically turning itself off?

    has anyone with sprint had time/date issues as well as imessage function automatically turn itself off?

    Im having the same problem, I updated my Iphone 4S to 6.1.3, shortly after that my phone had no audio. It was working fine one minute and then stopped. Was listening to music when sound gave out on me. It wont ring, phone just vibrates even after turning off vibration option. I've tried all the options listed and nothing. My phone has never been jailbroken either. If I connect the earphones is works perfectly. On one of my last calls received, phone's ringtone was heard for about 2 seconds before muting and just vibrating. Ringtone sounded perfect, speakers did not sound damaged. 
    What else could be done? I've read several post regarding this and it seems like Apple has no solution to this yet. Very dissappointed.

  • In Office 2011 the function "share it by e-mail" seems to be disabled. that happened recently, just after the apple update regarding Java. Any idea on how enable this function again?

    I was able to get to a support person who helped me fix this without charge. I guess it was my bad for not trying the right way to access support.
    Anyway, they answer is this.
    I had to create a new account on my computer. When I logged into the new account it immediately wanted an AppleID. I used my daughter's e-mail address for the AppleID. This setup the internet accounts correctly with her iCloud.com e-mail address. I was then able to access e-mail in both the browser and Mail. Not that complicated but nothing that I would have easily thought up on my own.
    Thank Apple Support!

  • Has anyone used SFTP/ssh via any process in OWB?

    Has anyone used SFTP/ssh via any process in OWB?
    We need to SFTP a file from an SFTP server(unix) to our OWB environement.

    You can use the FTP operator in a process flow. Configure it as such -
    Command - /usr/bin/sftp
    Parameter_List - ?${Remote.User}@${Remote.Host}?
    Script -
    lcd ${Working.RootPath}
    cd ${Remote.RootPath}
    get myfile
    bye
    You have to configure the operator to define remote and working locations.
    There is another example for this in the documentation -
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/casestudies/10gr2/ftpprocessflow/ftp_linux_to_winxp.html
    I personally prefer scp to sftp as in my experience OWB handles errors better with it.

  • Has anyone updated ipad 1 to 5.1?

    just wondering if i should. i remember all the problems with the last update and im worried. Also has anyone did 5.1 to ipod4? for both please let me know if you have had any problems....thanks/

    Was able to update iPad 2 and iPod Touch 4th Gen OTA to 5.1 with no problems.
    Both devices have been working great since updating to 5.1 with no issues thus far.
    I updated both devices to 5.1 the next day after it was available, and again haven't been experiencing any issue(s).
    Also, both my devices even power off faster, when it would take each device sometimes up to 15-20 seconds.
    iOS 5.1 is GREAT!!!!!

  • Has anyone found a solution to the issue of default email account on iPhone continually changing?

    I am seeing an irritating problem with the default mail account, calendar and contacts list on my iPhone 4.
    Every so often (I think it happens randomly after syncing or even just connecting the iPhone to my iMac without syncing) I notice that some or all of my default email account, calendar and contacts list have changed away from my desired default (which is my Exchange account).
    The iPhone is running iOS 4.3.5 (8L1) and I'm using iTunes 10.4.1 on my iMac.
    I found this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1639451 dating back 2 years to the days of iOS 2.1 without any solution. Googling hasn't helped me find any answers yet.
    I have 5 accounts set up on the iPhone - a MobileMe "Find my phone" account that's only used for that purpose, not email, a GMail account, a couple of vanilla IMAP accounts and my main, Exchange 2010-based account that I use for mail, contacts and calendar.
    Most frequently after a change I find that the default email has switched to the GMail account, the calendar and contacts lists have switched to my iPhone and most of my Exchange account mail folders are empty and have to re-sync when I tap on them.
    I know from Googling that other people have been seeing similar issues.
    Has anyone found a workaround or solution?

    Has no one found any solutions to this?
    Or at least what causes it (so that it might be avoided)?
    I find it difficult to believe this issue has existed so long in iOS without being addressed!

  • Has anyone solved the Yosemite and WebEx issue

    Ever since upgrading to Yosemite, my WebEx service has become unstable, I get varying issues from complete failure to connect, to bouncing WebEx icon on my tray, through to occasional connectivity.  This issue seems to be well known, certainly within my office I am not alone with this issue. Apparently, there is an issue with Pac files and how Yosemite interacts.  Has anyone found a fix for this ?

    So why won't my password work?
    A quote from another thread:
    "Long story short the Apple Genius Bar rep told me that they KNOW it's a software flaw, but unfortunately, they have no way to fix it, other than restoring my phone to factory settings" (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3407403?start=15&tstart=0)
    I am not the only one with this problem. I was hoping someone had a solution or even a helpful suggestion.

  • Has anyone seen this Java "Click Me" program?

  • Has latest update fixed the "blue rectangle" issue?

    If today's update did not fix it, is there any news as to when this bug will be fixed?  I'd really like to be able to turn the GPU back on. 
    Also--separate subject--the new version seems to have some catalog issues.  It didn't update the latest LR 5.7 catalog but some slightly older one.  All sorts of minor issues result.  Don't know if anyone else has had this kind of problem.

    Ive had Samsung galaxy s2 and i miss it. Unfortunately ive sold it for an iphone 4s and id say im not so satisfied. Even though IOS is somewhat better than android, android team can really fix the issues pretty fast and clearly with an expected result, unlike apple.
    As for the battery. Battery on MY iphone 4s *****, its still same ****** 5.01 had, and its draining in 6 hours of normal usage. Couple phone calls, text messages, surfing in internet and boom, its depleted. Usually i have to charge my phone once a day, but sometimes even twice. As for SGS2, i even could go 3 days without a single charge, however im not sure anymore with ICS firmware.
    Im selling off my iphone 4s and excited about HTC One X, i have a strong feeling about that phone.

  • Has anyone updated the software for 10.6 Snow Leopard and found that their printer no longer scans or prints?

    Last October, I bought a MAC desktop that uses MAC OS X 10.6.8 and an HP 1050 All-in-One Printer J401a.
    Everything worked beautifully until messages kept popping up about downloading critical MAC software update. Eventually, I succumber to the persistence and took the 7 hours required to do the download.
    Since then, the printer refuses to scan. A mesage informs that "HP Utility quit unexpectedly" and a report is being sent automatically to Apple.
    A few days ago, I got an engineer to have a look. He re-ran the HP disk 3 times and managed to get the scanner to work, but only once. His second visit did absolutely nothing and now even the printer doesn't work.
    HP informs that this is a problem with MAC OS X 10.7 and suggests downloading a correction.
    Has the Apply update turned the 10.6 to a 10.7?
    I have un-installed HP and disconnected the printer.
    What can I do to get this important facility back?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Even after the 7 hour update download the MAC OS X still says version 10.6.8 and nothing appears to have changed except printer and scan errors. I've uninstalled HP after 3 futile reloads and disconnected the printer.
    Any suggestions?
    Lis
    Right 10.7 is a purchase of a new oeprating system. Software update will not upgrade your computer to 10.7.
    The Software on the disk is very old software. Ushally it's a good idea to download the latest software from HP. As such, have you tried downloading & Installing HP Deskjet Full Feature Software and Drivers - Mac OS X v10.5 and v10.6?
    You may need to go into system prefrences, Printers, and delete the printer, and then re-add the printer.
    When opening the scanning software; it's really important to open the right program. If you look in the HP software folder there should be sevreal programs. There should be a program called scanner select or some thing similar. That's the one you want to open. it will have you select the device you want to scan from; then it will give you the option to open the scanning program.
    if that dosen't work, do you have any other mac or pc computers? the reason I ask; is that the printer could be having a hardware issue. if you try the scanner / printer with another computer; and you still have the issue, then you know it's an issue with the printer it self and not your computer.
    My HP all-in-one scanner died about 8 months into owning it. I couldn't even use the built-in copy button on the printer to make copies.
