Java SE 6 runtime fails to install

I upgraded to Mountain Lion from Lion today. When I tried to use Microsoft Word, it started to update Java SE 6 runtime. But at the end, I get an error: "The update 'Java for OS X 2012-004" can't be installed." I can't run Word anymore. The error message continues: "The update could not be expanded, and may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs." But I am getting the same message everytime it tries to install.
How can I correc this?
Thanks for any help you can provide me.

I solved this by going to the following page and made sure that it is the same version of Java (Version 2012-004) and downloaded:

Java Security Configuration Assistant fails to install

Hello,
I have a problem because Oracle Application Server 10g for Windows doesnt install. I have tried several times on various systems, but every time I have the same error when the installer comes to the "Java Security Configuration Assistant"
The command being spawned is:
C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1/jdk/bin/javaw -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -classpath C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1\dcm\lib\dcm.jar;C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1\j2ee\home\jazn.jar;C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1\j2ee\home\lib\jaas.jar;C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1\j2ee\home\oc4j.jar;C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1\jlib\ojmisc.jar -Doracle.security.jazn.config=C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1\j2ee\home\jazn\install\jazn.xml oracle.security.jazn.util.JAZNInstallHelper -log C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1\cfgtoollogs\jaznca.log -realm jazn.com -user admin -oldpwd welcome -newpwd 05f2d5c792fb24147255fbe8169f54594b -oh C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1 -clearpwd false
Only the first parameter is interesting :
C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\Db_1/jdk/bin/javaw
It has a mixture of slahes (/) and backslashes (\), the first half C:\oracle2\product\10.1.0\ is ok but the second half Db_1/jdk/bin/javaw is not compatible with windows (slahes are for unix path only), so it obviously doesnt work because this path with a mixture of / and \ is not correct. At this point, the installation of Oracle AS fails.
Does anybody know a cause for this, or a workaround to get AS installed ? Thanks

The mixture of slashes and backslashes isn't an issue for Windows. I have examined the failure of the assistant, but with the new release of AS10g (release 2), I would like to know if you still have the problem you describe.

After Installing the OS x Mountain Lion some o the softwares are asking for Java SE 6 Runtime. Can someone please help me find a solution.

By default, ML no longer comes with the Java runtime preinstalled. I believe the route to enabling Java if you are going to need it is to run the Java Preferences app found in Utilities. It will inform you of Java's absence and offer to install the latest version and activate it. On subsequent runs, the Preferences app will allow you to fine tune how the runtime operates.
Note that the new default operation is for the applet plugin to be disabled. You need to enable it as needed and it self-deactivates if unused in awhile. Also important to note that Java comes in both 32 and 64 bit versions and you can set the preferred order. Default is 64-bit but I've had issues with some applets failing to run and have had to switch the order.

Installing my updated CS4 on a new I Mac: "legacy Java SE 6 runtime" error when i try to open psd

Bought the original Creative Suite package 1n 2004, installed on my new apple G5. Upgraded in 2009 to CS4 and sometime installed on a 2nd computer. I'm sure I registered each product. I don't have the original disk's, but I have the serial number. I'm trying to install CS on my new I Mac. It fails authorization in the download. I went ahead and downloaded the 30 day trail like suggested. I get the "legacy Java SE 6 runtime" error when i try to open psd. After my first attempt failed and I read the help lessons on deactivation, I believe I have deactivated from the G5, but I'm still getting the same code when trying to open psd.

Download and install: Java for OS X 2014-001

Message "to open MLBNexDefAutobahn, you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to install one now?" I click "not now" and it pops open a second later. It won't go away. Help!

I keep getting a pop up window labled Software Update saying, "To open 'MLBNexDefAutobahn,' you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to install one now?" I click on "Not Now" and it pops open again a second later. It is not going away! Is this a Java virus? I just installed Maverick Wednesday and got a message yesterday on google that "Google would like to take over this computer"??? Please help.
Thanks!

This is not a virus, or any other kind of malware. Some third-party software that you have installed is repeatedly trying to open a Java process called MLBNexDefAutobahn. What that software might be, I don't know. What software do you have that this name might fit with?

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

To open "CS5ServiceManager" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.

Recently updated to OSX Yosemite. Now every time I turn the computer on I get this message.
To open "CS5ServiceManager" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.
I don't know what CS5ServiceManager is. And when I click on the "More Info" button, I am redirected to a blank screen. So I'm confused and a little worried. Is it necessary to install Java SE 6 runtime? If so, I think I can find the instructions on how to do it, but I'd like to know if (1) it is safe to do so and (2) if it's necessary.

Here it is: Apple Java 2014-001. Quite safe to install. Only necessary if you are using Adobe's CS5 suite.

When I try and open adobe illustrator I get a pop up message saying "To open "Adobe Illustrator CS6" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime."

When I try and open adobe illustrator I get a pop up message saying "To open “Adobe Illustrator CS6” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime." it also says "Click “More Info…” to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website." When i click more info it transfers me to an apple page which never loads, its just a blank page. I downloaded Java SE 6 like it says it needs but it did nothing. All of my other Adobe programs such as bridge, dreamweaver, lightroom, Photoshop, indesign, and flash all work except for illustrator. What can I do to fix this?

Go to Apple and look for the Java for OSX 2014-001 link. Download from there and install it.

To open "CS5ServiceManager" you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime. Won't install? Please advise.

Hi Apple Support Communities, I need some support.
After loading Mavericks with lots of happiness primarily to be able to use dictation, see my previous query. Since then I have also had this come up on my Macbook Air everytime I start it.
To open "CS5ServiceManager" you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to check for and install one? I tried yes (many times over many days).
Install.
Finding software. Can't download the software because of a network problem.
There is no problem with my internet connection & I have Java 7. My apologies that I am just a general user & not up with technical issues, would someone please enlighten me on what to do to fix or remove this error.
its now become a tiresome thing that together with not being able to use (download) the enhanced dictation & my imail/gmail problems that makes me wanna buy a PC next time. Major bummer.
Please help. Thankyou in anticipation.

i had the same problem and i fix it installing ccleaner, it is free and an excellent program. You can download it from: https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download
Once installed, in the tab "Herramientas" (sorry but i have it in spanish) you choose "Inicio" and them you pick CS5ServiceManager then you pick in delete option. Basically you are removing of the startup programs...
Hoping to be helpful, and excuse my bad english!

"Would you like to install a Java SE 6 runtime now?" NO!!!

Every 30 minutes or so, the message, To open “java,” you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to install one now? pops on my screen no matter what software I am using. I disabled anything Java in my web browsers, looking at the log in the Console, etc. To no avail. Needless to say, I am greatly disinclined to install an application that Apple decided to drop after experts warned about its security, but how can I stop this pesky message?

To open "adobe" you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime. Won't install? Please advise.

hello, every time i start up my Mac mini i get a message saying To open "adobe" you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime.
But when i press install it says no connection available even though i am connected to a really reliable and fast connection.
Please help - Thank you!

every time i start up my Mac mini i get a message saying To open "adobe"
That's not what your screenshot shows. It shows "java," not "adobe." Regardless, I very strongly suggest that you figure out what is trying to use Java before you install it.

To open you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Why, when I have 1.7 installed?

PREFACE: I've read most of the posts on here that discuss this issue but none have provided a real answer to this.
I'm on Moutain Lion w/ all the latest updates from the App Store.
I've installed Oracle's latest Java JDK (7u11) because of the recent security issue. When I go to Terminal and type in "java -version", it's the latest version of Oracle's 1.7. I don't have Apple's 1.6 version of Java on my system. I've verified that by checking in the appropriate System folder for the 1.6 JRE & JDK.
So all seems to be fine so far and per Apple's recommendation, I'm using Oracle's latest version of Java.
So when I go to run Charles debugging proxy, which is a Java desktop app, I get the following message in a dialog:
"To open "Charles,” you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to install one now?"
If I have the latest Oracle Java version installed, why am I being prompted to install Apple's 1.6 version?
I've had this prompt in the past and went through the install before. Contrary to what another poster in another thread says, choosing install at the prompt ignores the fact that 1.7 is installed and does in fact install Apple Java 1.6. It's an outdated version of Java which I don't want on my system.
Why do I need to install Apple's 1.6 when Oracle's Java 1.7 latest is already there?

You would need to ask the "Charles" developer that question. There seem to be quite a few issues regarding Java 1.6 and 1.7 with the Oracle version causing the most trouble. This, of course, is not an Apple problem to solve. The Java community and Oracle need to sort out their troubles.
You can, of course, have both versions on your system but you need to do some terminal work to switch between them. Apple has a tech support document that explains how to do that.

I have a box that will not go away, it says, "To open JavaApplication, you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to check for and install one? If i push not now, it keeps popping up, if I push install, it says it's not available, help.

I have a dialogue box that will not go away and it seems to have started when I upgraded to Mt. Lion. the box says, "To open JavaApplication, you need to install a Java 6 SE runtime. Would you like to check for and install one? (smaller print) Note: Usw of this software is subject to the Software License Agreement applicable to the software you are downloading. A list of Apple SLAs may be found here: htp://www.apple.com/legal/sla/
Finally there are two boxes to click. One says not now. If I click on that the box goes away for 2 to 3 seconds and then pops back up and WILL NOT go away. If I click on the second box, Install, it says The software is currently unavailable. To install a Java SE 6 runtime later, open Java Application again.
My confusion here is that I have no idea what the java application is, When I click "okay" on that box, the original box pops us again and WILL NOT go away. CGoing to the apple lega web site was no help. My solution so far has been to drag the dialogue box as far to the lower right and out of the way as far as I can. Help.

Does this happen immediately after you log in? If so, one of your login items is probably causing it.

I couldn't launch Dreamweaver CC. An error told me to install "java se 6 runtime". But when I clicked OK I got another error telling me there is a network problem! I found this forum post on CS6 products, so I tried the download link, installed java 6 and presto, it worked! Thanks!
