I did software update, now java in Safari doesn't work.

I ran software update, now Java in Safari and Firefox doesn't work. How do I fix it?

I already tried that.
I am running OS 10.6.8.
I did a "normal" software update (under the Apple icon).. didn't update the OS to a higher level, it's still 10.6.8. But now certain websites tell me that Java is missing or not working. When I go to the Java site, they say that you can only download the newest Java for OS 7 or higher... that Java is automatically part of OS 6 and should have automatically updated when I do a Mac software update.
Java used to work. Now that I've "updated" my Mac software, it doesn't work. And there's no way to download and install Java (according to them).
It's a never ending circle with no solution.

  • Just did software update, now mail won't open!!

    I just ran a software update and now may mail application won't open. These are the five updates that I installed:
    Backup 3.1.1
    iPhoto 6.0.6
    Airport Base Station 5.1
    iTunes 7.2
    Mac OSX Update Combined (PowerPC) 10.4.10
    I don't think I needed to install that last one, about the Power PC....Anyone know if that is enough to keep my Mail App. from openenig? I can still check my e-mail via .Mac, just not through my Mail Appliacation.

    Did you download the correct Combo for PPC, since it
    appears you do not have an Intel Mac?
    If the correct Combo version, then I think you should
    run Disk Repair from the original Tiger install disk
    to check out your hard drive.
    How much free disk space do you have on your hard
    drive, or if partitioned, on the boot partition?

    Ernie,
    thanks for the suggestions. I'm not quite the Mac expert I'd like to be, so bear with me please. How do I know if I downloaded "the correct Combo for PPC, since it appears you do not have an Intel Mac?" Wouldn't my computer automatically download the correct one? How can I check if it's the right one? ALSO,
    How do I "run Disk Repair from the original Tiger install disk to check out your hard drive"? Do I need to insert the original startup disk again, or can I do it without it?
    When doing info on my mac, it says I only have 6.1 GB left available. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!!

  • Just did software update now "must restore" with itunes but am being told it can't be restored

    did a software update on my 5 now it says it needs to be restored but itunes says it can not be restored. "unable to continue withactivation" Does anyone have suggestion s?

    In defense of original poster, I have had so many issues with hacking and bots, etc. - & I am certainly not jailbroken - that it has become ridiculous. There's tons of information out there about this growing problem.

  • Mac OS X 10.6.8: Software update, now skype and chrome don't work, and it seems like the programs didn't install at all even though the computer restarted. Help?

    I just did the automatic restart after software update. When everything came back up, Skype would start but immediately freeze at log in. Chrome would also start, but kill Gmail and facebook pages immediately. Firefox and other applications work. i checked software update again, and it seems to want to me to reinstall all of the things I just updated. I've done it twice but get the same thing every time.

    They should be. They both worked until just now. Also I checked again and realized that everything in the software update had indeed been downloaded. So now its just a chrome/skype problem.

  • I updated iTunes and iPad software and now the iPod function doesn't work--it just displays a large musical note with no controls or songs.

    Why does the iPod on my iPad not work after I updated the iTunes and iPad software? All I see when I touch iPod is a large musical note, no controls or songs.

    happened to me the first time i used the i pod app after the i tunes update.  simply back all the way out - (double hit the home button - the ipod app is one of those things that seems to continue to live in the multitaking bar).  When you restart the i pod app, it should dome back fine.  I do not think (but maybe I did) that I needed to do a full shut down - just fully close and reopen.

  • Java for Safari doesn't work correctly at YouTube

    We are trying to use the Advanced Upload Tool at YouTube, but it does not show us all of our hard drives. Only the Macintosh HD - and we have two other drives we've mounted into one 4 TB drive and that is where we store our videos. I haven't been able to find anywhere to change this.

    HI,
    Try repairing disk permissions...
    Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
    Also, from the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Empty Cache. Relaunch Safari. See if that makes a difference.

    Try this Safari5.1 from the installer package

    The download worked better with Firefox not sure why. At the bottom of the page after the captcha>> slow down load is the Free link,  it took about 4 minutes to download on my test.

  • HT204308 Did software update today and now iPhoto is not working.  I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.3

    Did software update today and now IPhoto is not working.  Operating system is OS X Yosemite 10.10.3

    What OS X version did you upgrade from? What iPhoto version did you have before upgrading? You cannot upgrade a version of iPhoto from a pre-10.10.2 OS X version installation. You needed iPhoto 9.6.1.

    I'm having a similar problem.
    New iPad with iOS6 just downloaded.

    It keeps asking me to fill in CC details, asking for security number, but stays red when i fill in the 3 numerals and when I click done I get a Time Out message.
    This is not good Apple!!
    Looks as if I will have to use my iPad One to purchase from the Apple Store.

  • HT5766 Where can I find the size of a download for a software update now?

    Hello,
    Where can I find the size of a download for a software update now?
    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion (Mac OSX 10.8.3) this information is no longer available in software updates listing you get if you click on the Software Update menu item from the Apple menu.
    I found the download size (often hundreds of megabytes for an individual update and sometimes a set of updates might amount to a few gigabytes) to be very helpful, and now that it seems no longer available (I can't even see it on the web page I came to for more information, thinking the download size would surely be specified there), it is frustrating. My current example is iTunes 11.0.3
    I would greatly appreicate having this information back in the software updates listing, but since it is no longer available there, and I don't know where else to find it, if anybody can enlighten me to its whereabouts, I'd be grateful.
    Thanks and cheers!

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    No data is lsot due to a reset.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • I've spent 6 hours trying to update my iPad, and it doesn't work. It can't get past trying to back up, and just stops and gives an error code. I've deleted the backup, re-synced, and tried again and still no luck. What do I do now?

    I am not running any antivirus software on my Mac, and I have the firewall shut off. Any other ideas? I have not problem downloading all other Apple software updates. I downloaded the latest iTunes software before starting the iPad update process.
