HT1338 java 7 11 okay for mountain lion??

HI
I am reading that there are problems in Java 7 for Mountain Lion.
I am not able to open any youtube or ASIC video clips. It says "blocked plug in" then has a black screen
Do I download Java JDK 7 then do I download the update JDK 7u11?
Will it then run on my mac and will I be in danger of security breaches eg trojans?
Seems like Apple are not supporting this and not offering any alternatives.
The salesman on line at Apple assured me that there would not be any problems or concerns in running Mountain Lion from 10.6.8 and I find youtube doesnt work
Thanks Trickietrev

jre-7u11-macosx-x64.dmg
This was the link that i used from your suggestion above it was 11 not 2
As per my posting it still did not run youtube clips and Killhippie suggests that it could be the flashplayer.
Perhaps flashplayer needs a new install or upgrade???
thanks Trev

  • Where do I find the java update for mountain lion?

    I have been all through the app store and can't find it.  The Java site says the update must come under Apple through the app store.
    TIA

    Go to Applications > Utilities
    and double click on
    Java Preferences.app
    It will ask if you want to install the runtime.

  • I attempted to download Java for Mountain Lion and it had no positive effect. ~Marlin

    I attempted to download the Java enabler for Mountain Lion (version 10.8.2) and it had absolutely no effect. How should I proceed?
    Thank you,
    ~Marlin

    Open Java Preferences.app in the Utilities folder. It will tell you what version you have, allow you to download it if not present, and allow you to enable it.

  • HT1338 The latest update for Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.3 keeps asking for Restart, but does not update.

    The latest update for Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.3 does not update.  Keeps asking for Restart but no update.

    Yup, I'm experiencing the exact same thing. 
    I (and many others) are experiencing the same or similar issues with the 10.8.3 update.
    I've sent an response to Apple but have not yet received anything back (yet). 

  • HT1338 qualifying for mountain lion

    Does anyone know how long it takes to receive the email confirming you qualify for Mountain Lion?  I bought a Mac within the qualifying time period.

    Beyond what is posted at Apple (which does list Snow Leopard as an upgrade, and does list some specific requirements), please check back after Mountain Lion is released; it's not announced yet, so particular details beyond what's posted are likely under non-disclosure.

  • HT1338 Please tell me if my MacBook is OK for Mountain Lion !

    Please tell me if my MacBook Lion 10.7.4 is OK for Mountain Lion !
    <Edited By Host>

    You should never post your Mac's serial number in the open. Anyone can call in and use that to get service, parts, etc. I've asked the hosts to remove them.
    But no, your Mac will not support ML. It was built in 2007 and is maxed out at Lion.

  • USB/Flash support for Mountain Lion

    What App is availiable on app store as USB support for mountain lion? There was one 'USBmate'. Is it okay? If not please tell me how to get the USB support. I have downoaded installation of ML but have not installed it because backups have to be on external HDD. Please help me.

    I don't know to what you are referring. I think you mean a bootable USB flash drive for installing OS X. If so, then know there is no such thing for Mountain Lion. There was for Lion, but it is no longer available. Apple never included any installer disc for computers with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed.
    Reinstalling Lion or Mountain Lion is done through the Internet Recovery - OS X (Lion/Mountain Lion)- About OS X Recovery.
    If you download Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store you can save the installer application and make a bootable installer from it:
    Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
    Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.
    As an alternative to the above you can try using Lion DiskMaker 2.0 that automates the process.

  • Need to Install Safari 6.0.2 on a white Intel core duo iMac. Had to throw out 6.0.3 because of conflict with required software. Downloaded wrong version that was for Mountain lion (I am running 10.7.5). It installs but won't open.

    Of course I can't throw it away since I get a message it's part of the sytem. I can show package contents and throw those away, but evidently not a good idea!!

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
    Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

  • Is it possible to upgrade to lion or do I have to wait for mountain lion?

    Is it possible to  still upgrade to Lion or do I have to wait for Mountain Lion later in July?  I currently have Snow Leopard and upgraded RAM to 4GB on an older iMac Core Duo in order to use iCloud features in Lion.  Also, I'm wanting to upgrade iMovie and iPhoto, but I'm having difficulty finding a download link that will let me do it online without going through the App Store, and it says I need to be running 10.7.  I feel like I'm in an "obsolete" double bind until I upgrade to Mountain Lion and it isn't possible yet.  I'm wanting to use iMovie 8 or higher in order to download AVCHD video.  I just bought a new camera that shoots AVCHD and I can't download any HD video,  nor can I find any of my old video which used to be on iPhoto and would open w/ Quick Time.  User friendly Mac is no longer so intuitive.

    Yes, you can purchase Lion as well as iPhoto and iMovie from the App Store. But before you can do that you must update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 by installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 update. Then you can sign into the App Store with your Apple ID and password, locate the items you want, purchase them, and download them to your computer.

  • What are the real minimum requirements for Mountain Lion?

    What are the real minimum requirements for Mountain Lion. Currently running Snow Leopard. I have a late 2006 Model: iMac6,1. Specs: 2.33 GHz Core 2 Duo, 3 GB 667 MHz DDR2, and the optional nVidia GeForce 7600GT c/w 256MB GDDR2. The advertisement is stating a 2007 model as the minumum, however the fastest 2006 Gen Plastic iMac should be faster then the slowest 2007 Gen Aluminum iMac7,1?

    From a previous posting from some else, I saw it was the 32bit versus 64bit video card driver being the issue. I was wondering if the optional video card I have installed also was limited to the 32bit issue. 64bit drivers exist for the 7600 GT GPU.

  • I installed 6.0.2 on OS10.7.5 and now Safari won't open.  6.0.2 is just for Mountain Lion.  How do I revert to 6.0.1?

    I installed 6.0.2 on OS10.7.5 and now Safari won't open.  6.0.2 is just for Mountain Lion.  How do I revert to 6.0.1?

    I do have a cloned back-up, so I tried to just copy Safari 6.0.1 back onto my main drive—wouldn't work.  Got a message that the System needs Safari and I can't touch it.
    I'm trying to find a simpler way to revert than clone backwards, which takes a lot of time.  And actually I never use Safari.  I'm a Chrome user.
    You are correct that I downloaded 6.0.2, rather than using software update.  However, with many other pieces of software, if you try to install over the wrong system, you get a message telling you that the installation can't be done.  Apple could have saved a lot of trouble by using this message.
    I have three machines of different vintage, so one is on 10.6.8, one on 10.7.5 and one on 10.8.2.  I am usually pretty careful about software updates and which system is needed.  Unfortunately, in this case I used CNET download, and the description of 6.0.2 said it was for Lion and Mountain Lion.
