Help please need to install java update 3

Just updated to java update 4. I have medical software on the computer and it breaks. I need to roll back one version. Can anyone help me out with this? 10.6.6 OS

OK, there is a method, but it is risky at best. Backup your data before proceeding*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
Note where it says on these instructions rm -rf:
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/joshy/archive/2007/11/howto_removej.html
Change that "f" instruction to i (the letter I as in I am).
So you would say:
sudo rm -ri /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/(whatever the version is that is newer)
If you are unsure of the version, look it up first by typing:
ls -aF /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
And determine which ones are newer.
Answer 'n' to the rm once files are listed that you don't want. Careful not to go trigger happy with the 'y' as it automatically takes every 'y' response as an affirmative.

Java should be downloaded directly from Apple:

Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.
Actually, you cannot download Snow Leopard. You downloaded a Snow Leopard updater.

HT1338 I use gotomypc and since I downloaded mountain lion I am unable to launch the program. It says I need to install java but when I go to "software update" it says there are no updates. Any ideas?

Ever since I updates to mountain lion I can' use gotomypc because it says I need to install java. When I follow the instructions to install by going to software update there is nothing to update in the app store. How do I manually install java?

just found an answer on another feed
Re: mountain lion java
In spotlight, type in Java, and click on Java Preferences in the list - it will then start downloading and installingthe new version. (my java version is now 1.6.0_33-b03-424)

Safari 2.0.4 says I need to install Safari update 1.3.2

I have an I-Mac G-5
I am installing H&R Block Tax Cut program. It tells me that I need to install Safari update 1.3.2 to use Tax Cut online support. Although I already have Safari 2.0.4, I tried to install Safari update 1.3.1 any way. I tried installing 1.3.1 before installing 1.3.2 and I got this message from Safari.
"You cannot install Safari Update 1.3.1 on this volume. This software requires OS X 10.3.9"
I already have OS X 10.4.8 so I don't know why it will not let me install the Safari update. Isn't the higher version number the latest version?

How do I un-install Java updates

How do I un-install Java updates?
Everyone I work with that got the Java 1.6.6 update that went out last night has lost the ability to access database servers. We need to un-instill that Java update. Does anyone know how to do this?

The specific database connection problem turned out to be an issue with the MS SQL database driver from Microsoft with this specific Java update. A working open source option can be found at http://jtds.sourceforge.net/ if anyone else runs into this problem.

I need to install Java SE6 plug-in but Java says I need OS X version 10.7. The most current OS upgrade is 10.6.8. Anyone have any ideas how I can get 10.7?

10.7 is Lion. You can purchase it and download it from the App Store.

Fedex Site says I need to Install Java to Print

I'm trying to print a fedex label and it's telling me I need to install Java. It takes me to this page on Oracle's site: https://www.java.com/en/download/mac_download.jsp I thought Java was already installed. I OS 10.9.3 Before I do the download I wanted to make sure, do I really need this or is the Fedex site just reading my computer wrong? Is there any risk to downloading this? Isn't it kind of stupid that Fedex has to make me do this extra crap when plenty of other sites can print out labels just fine (that last question was rhetorical).

Figured it out. I tried using Safari rather than Firefox and it worked fine. No need to download anything.

Need urgent help please PS + Lightroom instalation

Hi,
I bought some days ago the Monthly pack of Photoshop and Lightroom (12,99/month)
Before I had the trial version. A friend of mine told me to unistall ADOBE programs before buying the Photoshop and Lightroom. I did it, or better I thought I did it. When I check in the Application I found them there and when I click on the Uninstal the program pop out a window with the message "you have to download the latest version of Adobe Application Manager". I did it, but when I try to delete the old Photoshop the window pop out again and again, and it doesn't let me download and install the Adobe Creative Cloud I bought
PLEASE PLEASE ANYONE WHO CAN TELL ME WHAT I HAVE TO DO?

IreneOO I would recommend you begin by completing the steps listed in CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html. Once those steps are completed then please see Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html for information on how to install the Adobe Creative applications included with your membership.

Please help: Utility used to install the update failed with exit code {0}.

Hi,
I admit to being a relative newbie at Solaris 10 administration, so please exercise forbearance on my behalf.
I have just installed Solaris 10 11/06 on my laptop x86. Everything went fairly smoothly. I used the Installation Check Tool 1.2 to decide if my machine was adequate to run the OS and with the exception of a NIC driver, it was. I downloaded the sfe driver and configured networking and it seems to work exceptionally well. However, when I run Update Manager in JDS (the only way I know how to run it), it fails to update some of the packages. Sometimes, if I retry the same packages, sometimes it will eventually work. But it keeps failing with the following error on a consistent basis over the last several days:
Utility used to install the update failed with exit code {0}.
I hunted around on the web and the results were not promising. Is there a log somewhere that will give me the actual error or do y'all know of a quick fix.
Thanks,
Will

Need to install an update for Adobe Flash Player, Help?

How do I install an update for an Adobe Flash Player on my Mac Mini?

Installing the Flash Update on your Mac
This is what I had to do to install it; I'm using OS X 10.9 Mavericks; you may get different results if you're still using Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion (earlier OSs)
I encourage you to do backup your system, download and install the Free, most current operating system for Macs, Mavericks OS X 9.
At some point, Adobe Flash will offer you the opportunity to update itself. It's a good idea, to do so.
Step 1 will be to download the Update .dmg file, which installs the update.
It will probably be in your Downloads folder; double click on it.
When the folder presents itself in a new Finder window, double-click on it.
At some point in the Install, it will pop up a notice to Shut Down Safari/Opera/Chrome/Firefox (all Browsers). That's easy.
It will also likely insist that you shut down a Dashboard Client. Only the Dashboard Client won't show when you try Force Quit (Option-Command-Escape).
Here's what I had to do, to make it work; there may be a more efficient way, but I didn't find it.
Here's what worked for me, and I'm going to spell it all out the Dummy way, 'cause that's how I need things done for me! : )
Click on an empty space on the Desktop to activate Finder. In the Finder Menu (top) click on the GO tab (top menu) and scroll down to Utilities. Click on the Activity Monitor. In the CPU tab (any of them will work), Click onDock and, holding the Command button (Splat) next to the Space Bar, click on all incidents of Dashboard Client. They're easy to find-- they all have a little grey folder icon to the left of them.
Click on VIEW in the top menu, scroll down to Select Processes, and click on that. The window will simplify and isolate, showing only the selected processes that are keeping you from installing the Flash update.
Then click on the big red stop sign at the top (Quit Process).... (This didn't work for me. No 'Stop' sign.)
Alternately, once you've 'collected' the appropriate files, click on and select each one individually, go up to View in the top menu, scroll down to Quit Process. After a brief pause, it will quit. Quit all of the processes selected.
Make sure everything else is closed and then try to install the Flash Player again. It should work! (Fingers crossed!)
'Always a good idea to Reboot, afterwards, and you should be good to go.
