Java 8 update 45 on OSX 10.9.5

I simply can't update to Java 8 update 45 (latest version). I'm running on OSX10.9.5
I download it, install it, get a success confirmation, yet when I get to test if the installation worked, the Java page says that my version is out of date, and prompts me to run the whole process again.
I have tried Safari, Firefox and Chrome, neither works.
(I need this Java update to run a tax income program actually, it's not even for websites)
Can anybody help me?
Thank you!!

Yes, I ran into the same issue. The update routine is not working correctly. Just download it from the Java site and run the installer.

  • After installing Java 6 update 11 for OSX 10.6, unable to open .jnlp files.

    Appears to download application then quits without an error message. When clicking on the .jnlp file again, nothing happens. I can go into java preferences and remove the application from the cache, but it does the same thing, redownloads the application then doesn't open it.

    After doing some research, I found a plugin for Google Chrome that will put current page you are on into an Internet Explorer wrapper with Java 6 installed in it. Its called Rndr and I have tested it on OSX 10.8 and 10.6.8 and it appears to launch any java plugin or .jnlp webstart app in the browser itself.

    Hi,
    Any one that was having this issue will be happy to know that what you read on google is incorrect apple didnt block java at all they blocked the older versions to make people continue using the new versions
    please install java 7 update 17 then go to the below link
    http://java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp
    it will say " inactive plugin" to begin with but if you click the text it will then work close safari and test the link again
    it should then come up and say "your java is working and up to date"

    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
    If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main screen.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode.
    *The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

  • 'A file or directory doesn't exist' error during java stack update

    Dear All,
    I've done a fresh installation of solution manger system on IBM iseries box (OS400 & DB2 combo).
    As part of post installation activity, I've updated the kernel patch, updated the ABAP stack to sp4, and am currently doing the java stack update.
    I'm struck with one error. The log file shows:
    Feb 23, 2012 7:54:35 PM  Error: /usr/sap/SLM/SYS/global/j2eeclient/META-INF/SAP_MANIFEST.MF (A file or directory in the path name does not exist.)

    Please suggest a solution.
    Thank You.

    Hi,
    This is an easy solution:
    From the OS command line, do WRKLNK, go to /usr/sap/SLMS/global/j2eeclient,  at the top where it shows the directory, do a copy on this. Then at the command line type MD, do F4, paste the directory name in the first line, then after j2eeclient add /META-INF'
    IMportant*** Make sure the full directory name is in single quotes.*
    *On the next 2 lines change INDIR to RWX.  Then press enter and re-run your job.  If you have any problems let me know.

  • Java 7 update 51 cause the following error: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to java.awt.RenderingHints

    Since I installed Java 7 update 51 accessing the EMC VNX Unisphere Console cause the following error: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to java.awt.RenderingHints.
    I rolled back to Apple Java 1.6 -005 now I am getting the following error: plug-in failure.
    I think this is cused by the fact that the EMC console application has been written for java 7 and not java 6. Has anybody faced and solved the "java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to java.awt.RenderingHints." error ?

    Hi Yaakov,
    The error is thrown from the  eclipselink.jar:2.5.1 which is a JPA provider .
    Is the above jar bundled in the Oracle Product you are working upon or was this downloaded from external site ?
    If the jar is bundled with the Oracle Product, go ahead a log a SR with Oracle Support with Toplink product group to drill down on the issue, as the issue is happening internally or thrown by the Eclipselink implementation and we've no control....
    Hope it helps!!
    Thanks,

  • Webstart no longer works after update from Java 7 Update 67 to Java 7 Update 71/72

    Hi,
    We have an application that is launched via Webstart.  Last year, we had to make a bunch of changes to the application in order to work with Java 7 Update 45.  It has been working fine up to and including Java 7 Update 67.  However, it is no failing with Java 7 Update 71 and 72.  Upon launch it is giving the error below. I have searched online and found other articles related to the AccessControlException but they are about 7 years old.  I also tried adding this to the java.policy file with no luck.  Any ideas or help would be appreciated to determine what I can do to get this to work for update 71.

  • Mavericks (10.9.1) blocking Java 7 update 51

    I am trying to play the NY Times Java Acrostic.  Every couple of months I have to update Java in order to get the applet to load (I get a message that my Java is out of date). This time I updated to Java 7 update 51, installed it, verified that it is successfully installed. But every time I try to click on the Java Acrostic, I get an error message where the Acrostic normally is located reading "Error. Click for details." I click and get a box headed "Application Blocked. Click for detais" with a red stop sign icon (the first few times it was just a white "i" in t blue circle icon) that states "Your security settings have blocked an untrusted application from running." There are three buttons: Details, Ignore, Reload.  "Ignore" and "Reload" accomplish nothing. "Details" gets me a "Java Console" box which reads:

    The Times is stumped. I went to Safari Preferences (Security) and both the Times website and Java Applet are set to "Always Allow." Java Preferences' Security tab is set to "Medium" as several tech websites instruct (apparently this is a HUGE known issue with the latest updates to Mavericks and Java).  This did not happen until I updated Mavericks to 10.9.1.

    I'm not an expert, but I've gotten around this problem in the following way.
    Go to the Java Control Panel
    Click on the Security Tab
    Look for the Exception Site List toward the bottom, and click "Edit Site List"
    I added these sites to the list. Not sure if all are needed, but I was able to do the acrostic afterwards.

    You may need to quit Safari and restart it.  Good luck.

  • Java 7 Update 9 don't work in mac os 10.7.5

    I have Mac OS X 10.7.5. I have installed Java 7 Update 9 as confirmed by the Java Control Panel. When I go to java.com and try verifying installation I got no response, so there is a problem with my installation. I have reinstalled Java and I have deleted all temporary files via the Java Control Panel, as suggested at java.com. But still Java is not working. What can I do? Thank you for any solution!

  • Java 7 update 17 not  working on Mac os x 10.7.5

    Hi,
    I am trying to get my Java working on my mac os x 10.7.5, but everything is saying that the plug-in is inactive, or java applets just continuously load. My java is enabled and up to date, as is my safari. I have read about all this stuff saying apple disabled java then renabled it without telling anyone. What exactly is going on and how can i get java to work?!?! I have tried fiddling with its settings, uninstalling, reinstalling, downloading chrome, etc etc and nothing seems to have any affect. Is there a way of reverting to some old software in either safari, java, or something to make this work as it used to until it decided to not one magical day?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jen 

    Hi Jen,
    I am having the same issue, from what i am reading and understanding is apple and there in genius ideas decided to block Java because its apparently a security risk - a joke i know!
    see i had my course materail for tafe all working then i decided to do the update that kept popping up since then it doesnt work, i installed java 7 update 17 on my old mac book pro and it works perfectly the only thing that is different between those 2 is safari my imac is running 6.0.3 and my macbook is still on the one before that..
    i am still currently working on a way to enable this again unless apple relise that this was a completly stupid idea and come to there sens before i come up with away then ill keep you updated when i get it working
    so for those who are reading this and havent updated yet my advise if you need java for online games or course materail or anything really DONT UPDATE
    thanks

  • Upgrade to 18.0 has disabled Java even though plugin checker says Java 7 Update 10 is up to date, yet webpages using java display "missing plug in" error

    Attempting to install the "missing plug-in" using the Firefox prompts results in Java 7 Update 10 being installed, re-installing it is successful and does not resolve the issue, Firefox 18 refuses to allow/display java content even with the proper updated version of Java installed.
    This problem ONLY occurred immediately following this mornings update to Firefox 18.0.

    Context:
    Yesterday: Java working fine.
    This morning: Update to Firefox 18.0
    Java will not work, not at all even with Java 7 Update 10 installed, not even the "verify java version" applet at http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp will display.
    When attempting to view/display any java content the "missing plug-in" error bar at the top of the page displays and attempting to install the required plug-in via that method does not resolve the issue even though the correct version of Java is installed and the plug-in checker verified it was "up-to-date".

    Hi
    Sounds like you may have moved the RMX library folder?
    Is RMX fully updated (for Lion)?
    Check your hard drives for a file called SAGE:
    It (or an alias of it) is normally found in the <USER>:Library:Application Support:Spectrasonics.
    Note that on Lion, the <User> Library is 'hidden'... quickest way to get there is to hold down Option (Alt) whilst using the Finder:Go menu

  • Java 7 Update 11 Not Working with Firefox

    For me, the problems described in the thread "Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox? " Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox?
    are continuing with Java 7 Update 11.
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Firefox 18
    The problem is that "Java(TM) Platform" is missing from the plug-in list.
    I've uninstalled Java 7 Update 11 and reinstalled Java Update 9 which correctly installs the plugin and restores Java functionality which was broken immediately upon installing both Java 10 & 11.

It cannot be enabled, because it simply is NOT there. A suggestion was made the jre7u12 will be the "fix" for this issue ... so I installed the Update 12 Preview and it sis ALSO broken, no "Java(TM) Platform" in the plug-in list.
    The ONLY Java version that actually works for me is jre7u9.
    As far as installing Firefox 64bit ... I see no future in installing a browser that has been discontinued.
