Hey stewarjr15,
Thanks for the question. Try downloading Java for OS X 2014-001 from the following link, as it may resolve your issue:

How to download and install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime?

After installing Yosemite, I get a message on startup to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. I click on the "more info" button to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download site, but the site does not load. What can I do?

If you need to install Java legacy SE 6 runtime, first, you can try going to the website associated with the software (app) that you are trying to run and see if they have any support options. If there is nothing available for you, you can try this link (it worked for me anyway): users can download Java 6 here
I was trying to run my Finale program (music notation software) for the first time after the Yosemite upgrade, and I got an error message that said I needed to install Java legacy SE 6 runtime. After searching a few other places online with no success, I found this link on Finale's website (www.makemusic.com) and clicked on "FINALE," then "SUPPORT," then "SUPPORT SOLUTIONS" and I typed "Java legacy SE 6 runtime" into the search bar. The #1 search topic that came up is titled, " Java 6 SE Update Required Message when launching Finale or PrintMusic." After clicking on that, There was this link to install Java legacy SE 6 runtime: users can download Java 6 here
If you click on that link, it will download the update. You will then go to your downloads folder, click on the file, and then it will step you through all the usual installation prompts. This link is trustworthy, so no worries there! I hope this helps!

To open "CS5ServiceManager" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.

Recently updated to OSX Yosemite. Now every time I turn the computer on I get this message.
To open "CS5ServiceManager" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.
I don't know what CS5ServiceManager is. And when I click on the "More Info" button, I am redirected to a blank screen. So I'm confused and a little worried. Is it necessary to install Java SE 6 runtime? If so, I think I can find the instructions on how to do it, but I'd like to know if (1) it is safe to do so and (2) if it's necessary.

Here it is: Apple Java 2014-001. Quite safe to install. Only necessary if you are using Adobe's CS5 suite.

I need help with this, is anyone out there experiencing the same phenomena?

HT202912 I can't open Adobe Illustrator CS6 without installing the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. I can't get/find the right legacy Java SE 6 download website.

I'm trying house Adobe Illustrator but I keep getting this message " To open Adobe Illustrator CS6, you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime" It also reads "Click More Info. to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website". When I click "More Info." it just takes me to a site for some version of Java that still can't open Illustrator!!!!!! What's going on here & how can this be fixed ASAP???? I have work to do!!!!

I'm having the same issue. I keep getting:
"Too many redirects occurred trying to open “https://support.apple.com/kb/dl1572?locale=en_US”. This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page."
Is there another link somewhere?

When I try and open adobe illustrator I get a pop up message saying "To open "Adobe Illustrator CS6" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime."

When I try and open adobe illustrator I get a pop up message saying "To open “Adobe Illustrator CS6” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime." it also says "Click “More Info…” to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website." When i click more info it transfers me to an apple page which never loads, its just a blank page. I downloaded Java SE 6 like it says it needs but it did nothing. All of my other Adobe programs such as bridge, dreamweaver, lightroom, Photoshop, indesign, and flash all work except for illustrator. What can I do to fix this?

Go to Apple and look for the Java for OSX 2014-001 link. Download from there and install it.

Photoshop CS5.1 error - you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.

I have PS 5.1 on my Mac. After I installed Yosemite, it will not work. I get an error saying "To open “Adobe Photoshop CS5.1.app” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime." According to Java, I have the latest Java. I contacted Apple and they said to uninstall PS 5.1. I reinstalled with no change. Any ideas? FYI - PS 5.1 work on my Macbook with no errors.
This is frustrating as I cannot use the software. Any help is appreciated.

Install this:

Reinstall CS5.1

I am unable to axcess any adobe software since OS X YOSEMITE took over my laptop. I keep getting this message, "To open Adobe CS5" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. Does anyone know what to do. My efforts have not worked.

and - check with Adobe - would strongly suspect you need to upgrade CS. Strongly consider Creative Cloud, access to the entire TypeKit alone is amazing.

To open "Adobe Photoshop CS4" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.

I have updated my system to Yosemite and when I try to open Adobe CS$ i get this message. To open “Adobe Photoshop CS4” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. I have followed the links and installed Java for OS X 2014-001 includes installation improvements, and supersedes all previous versions of Java for OS X. This package installs the same version of Java 6 included in Java for OS X 2013-005.
When I again try to open CS4 I get the same message To open “Adobe Photoshop CS4” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.
Can anyone assist please?
Thanks Colin

you may need to uninstall CS then reboot, try to see if it allows you to update your JAVA
APPLE'S JAVA
Java for OS X 2014-001
SUN MICROSYSTEMS JAVA

then reinstall CS4
I ran into something similar with CS6 where it needed to come off and go back on
technically CS4 is not supported by Adobe and reported to be problematic with Yosemite.

I get the message, To open "Adobe Illustrator CS5.1.app" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. What to do?

Sorry, I didn't say it damages Java.
Yes, I know. You were quoting from a post on Adobe's site.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it wasn't since Mountain Lion.
Yes, I think that's correct. Apple stopped installing Java as part of the OS after Lion. If you check the installers for Mountain Lion through Yosemite, there are a lot of root Java processes OS X still installs, or Java wouldn't work at all. It's just the actual runtime environment no longer installs. The user has to do that.
that the application files are damaged. They are not talking about JAVA itself.
What application files? Do you mean the Adobe apps themselves? If so, yes, it's been reported that the CS5 and CS6 apps in particular usually need to be reinstalled after upgrading OS X to Yosemite. That's actually an old problem that isn't a Yosemite only issue.

Justin,
In addition to what mo said, some have found that the page with the direct download link,

may turn up blank to start with, so it may be necessary to reload the page.
