HT202912 I get the message "To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment" Do I need two versions as this article suggests?

I just upgraded to Yosemite on my 2010 MacBook Pro.  When I reboot I get the message "To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment" and I've also seen the same pop-up once while running OpenOffice.  And now while composing this post. 
Yes - I followed the link and installed the Oracle version of Java, version 8, and the test page confirms that I have the current version running. 
I read some threads on discussions.apple.com but didn't like the answers. 
I found this:  http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac-software/advanced-tips-for-mac-os-x-yosemit e-3582877/
and tip # 10 seems to answer my question.
Anyone else have experience on this?

Most likely, you have either the Facebook video calling plugin or the "NexDef" plugin for watching baseball streams. Both depend on the Java runtime distributed by Apple. If you no longer need the plugin, remove it. Otherwise, install Java.

  • I keep getting this message.To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment.

    Every few minutes the message comes up on my screen. To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment.  Is the new iOS running with java. if not how do i stop messages?

    Troubleshooting:
    I have since unchecked the option Enable Java content on the browser in System Preferences > Java > Security - I will report back if the prompt still reappears, but I think it should be gone now.
    Follow up:
    I have since sent a feedback to Apple and I recommend you guys send it too, more people reporting will get Apple's attention on the issue.
    Issue:
    For me, this issue started after updating to Yosemite, I keep getting a prompt window on Chrome 38.0.2125.122 with a message "To view this web content you need to install the Java Runtime Environment, but I do have Java installed."

  • Os x yosmite shows this message at startup: To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment.

    so I've just downloaded and installed OS X 10.10 YOSEMITE on my mac this morning and I find the design refreshing, however when I do a reboot of my mac this popup message always shows up: To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment. here's a screen shot of it
    it is really annoying, and quite bothering on my part. I tried clicking the "more info..." tab as instructed by the popup/ notification, which led me to the webpage of java, and this is a screenshot of what I got
    so I've downloaded the .dmg file of the Java 8 update and installed it on my computer, did a check on my safari browser settings to see if the Java plugin is activated and, it is. Hoping that that the trick I rebooted my mac again and voila! the same popup appears again. I hope you could help me on this one guys, any suggestions for a quick fix would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    Here are the specs of my mac:

    This is a user forum. Apple probably monitor it but they are not on here answering questions.
    Not sure what you mean about the hidden information-i mean cheese how much info is 'gleaned' across the net and its nothing to do with the OS and don't get me started on the behaviour of some OSs!. You can set your machine to not give feedback to Apple.
    Not sure what does not convince you in what Casey Rey said-its a fact there is a download.  Download it don't download it ,what is you want Apple to explain? They made a decision not put JRE on OS X by default -i think there might be some licensing thing about it with Oracle going on. If you need it you need it if you don't you don't. Its like saying you wont install MS Office unless they explain why thats not on the machine by default.
    Who sold you the machine with the faulty screen? Apple on line? The Apple store? An Apple Dealer? How long have you had it? If i buy a Ferrari with a dent in the door and i knew it had a dent in the door it would be funny to say 'when this Ferrari breaks i am switching back to Porsche because they don't have dents in the door'

  • Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Are you trying to install the 32-bit version on a 64-bit machine, or vice versa?
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • You need to install the Java Runtime Environment

    I am sorry to ask this but for some reason the search feature won't work so that I can find the answer that has been posted to this question. So I guess there are two problem. I type in the question and I see that there are solutions to view but my computer won't go to the answer. I am just going to re-ask.
    I get this error message every time I turn the computer on "To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment." I have the latest and I have only gotten this after installing Yosemite. Can you please tell me how to get this to go away? Thanks Marilou

  • Safari 8 error: "...you need to install the Java Runtime Environment"

    Ever since upgrading to Yosemite and Safari 8, I continually get the error "To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment" and, although I did do so the first time I got the error, and Java tells me I do have the latest version installed and running, I continue to get this error constantly.
    Is there a way to stop this, or at least find out what content is causing it? I can't put my finger on any particular content that causes the error.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It makes no changes to your data.
    Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    java -version
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    If the Apple Java runtime is installed and up to date, you should get three lines of output below what you entered, the first of which is this:
    java version "1.6.0_65"
    Is that what you get? You can then quit Terminal.

  • Viewing flash web content on N97

    I've just got myself the new N97 (love it, btw). The web browsing is far better than what it was on the N95. (personal opinion). The only problem: I can't view flash web content. I can find the Flash player, but I'm talking about embedded flash videos on websites. For example: Visit www.family-secrets.net, my own website. I'm using an embedded flash player to play videos. I can't view these on my phone. I was under the impression that the N97 did come with the ability to play flash web content. Was I wrong? Or am I missing something here?
    Thanks,

    I recently did a system update and installed Yosemite on my Mac. Now I am unable to open CS5 at all. The error message I get is this: "To open Adobe Photoshop CS5.1, you need to install legacy Java SE 6 runtime." I have tried downloading this and it still gives me the same mess

    In the details it is mentioned that it is an outdated version of Java.
    Is this a security risk that i need to live with to get CS5 to run with Yosemite?
    Also i need to reject messages from Java in the future about updates, or not?
    thx for any input
