How can I update Java on my Mac?

How do I update Java on Mac OSX 10? Firefox is telling me my Java plug-in's vulnerable and requires an update but I don't know how to do this on the Mac. It says I need to uninstall Java first - how do I do this??

Please see Apple's page at

"Java for OS X Lion Update 1"
If this helped, let us know.

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

    Since August 2012 updates for Java (and especially Java Runtime Environment, which is what you actually need) must now be downloaded direct from Oracle:

  • How can i find java preferences on MAC 10.8.2

    I recently upgraded to the new Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.2 but I can't find Java preferences anymore. I need to go onto an online banking page but it needs me to adjust some settings through Java Preferences, kindly please inform where can I get to the Java Preferences page?

    The last Java update disabled Java plug-in and removed Java Preferences.app from your Utilities folder.
    You can re-enable Java by follwing this support article

    Or, you can update to Oracle's Java 7 here

  • Hi! how can i update or upgrade my mac 10.5.8

    how to update or update my mac 10.5.8 ?please

    You would have to start by upgrading to Snow Leopard, which you can purchase from the Online Apple Store. Check that your Mac meets the requirements before purchasing (basically an Intel processor and minimum 1GB RAM).
    Then use Software Update to bring it up to 10.6.8 so that you have access to the Mac App Store (in Applications).
    If you Mac can handle Yosemite you can download it for free from the Mac App Store. If it can't you may be able to go to Lion, which is available for purchase in the Online Apple Store.
    Note that if you upgrade beyond Snow Leopard, PPC programs such as AppleWorks will not run.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Yosemite are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)

    You have to upgrade to Snow Leopard first or to perform a clean install of Lion after erasing the hard drive prior to the installation.
    NO OTHER WAY'S ....
