Installed new JRE, but old version is still used

I'm running openSUSE 10.3 on a laptop. I just installed JDK 6u3 and JRE 6u3.
When I compile my programs an run them, it says "unsupported class version number". So I typed in "java -version", and it said "Java Version 1.5.0_12".
How do I make it use JRE 6u3 and not JRE 5?
P.S. I can compile the programs using "javac -version 1.4", and then they'll work.

Just FYI that was not a very elegant solution. All you had to do was make the new JRE the default by updating some environment variables. You could have found this solution on Google in seconds.
The above will not work at all.
As initially reported there was an unsuccessful upgrade of JDK and JRE due to an unknown problem.
In Linux distributions, links to Java tools resides in the path */usr/bin* and don't need to set any system variable to straight invocate them since this path is included in PATH global system variable.
If thought on the global user variable JAVA_HOME, it is for "applications" and respecting the developer/user knowledge I didn't mention this fact.

It helps if you provide details - not just a problem
What exactly dod you have and have you done?
What version of iPhoto did you have and what version do you now have? Of the OS? If you are upgrading from iphoto '08 or earlier did you download and RUN the iphoto library upgrader?

I also cannot check for new anymore

It is a two stage update. First update just preps the phone .. not sure what it does really.. most likely removes some Verizon changes to make the real upgrade work correctly. Connect to wifi and check for the update.

My email recently changed and so I updated my Apple ID to reflect my new email, but my Icloud account still shows the old email as the username on both my Iphone and Ipad and for the life of me I can't figure out how to change or delete it.

My password doesn't work with the old email address. When I look for my old email address in the Apple ID support area it says that the ID doesn't exist. Help!!!

You have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated credentials. This deletes the account and your synced data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a different account, your data will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

We have had to change to a new router but the Macbook Pro still reverts to the old router. How can this new one be made the default?

Go to "Network" under system preferences and choose "advanced"
On the Wi-Fi tab you can sort the sequence of the preferred connections.
Then just move your new router to the top of the list.

need help

First boot into recovery and select Disk Utility>First Aid and repair the disk.

I do not understand what "it says in the windows connect to itunes" means?
What is "it" and what is "windows"?
Maybe:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Everytime I try to install a new app, my old email address still comes up even though I changed it on appleid

everytime I try to install a new app, my old email address still comes up even though I changed it on appleid and Icloud....what am I doing wrong?

Settings>iTunes/App Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...now, sign back in with your new ID.

My old email address was hacked and I am no longer able to access it. How can i reset my icloud ID without losing all of my pictures and more inportantly contacts? I have created a new ID but i cannot seem to use it until I delete the old account

You need to use the old ID and password to delete the iCloud account. After you delete the old account, you can sign in with the new ID in iCloud.
Have you seen this.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
iCloud
iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.

Hi,
You might want to look in your control panel for 'Java' icon. It should give you an option to enable java plugin into your browser. Let me know if you still face the issue.

My daughter & I share same iCloud acct for my ipad & her iPhone. She set up a new iCloud acct for her new ipad but my iCloud acct still shows on her iPhone. If we delete, will it remove all her pictures etc(they are backed up to my iCloud)

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If she deletes your account, any photos in your photostream album will be removed from her device, her own photos in camera roll or other albums will not. If there are any photos in your photostream album she wants, there are 2 options available to her:
Copy those photos to her camera roll before deleting your account.
Create a shared photostream album yourself and share it with her.
