Latest Java 7 update 25 prevents JMF from working in Web Start application

Has anyone else had a problem getting the JMF to work in a Web Start application since updating to Java 7 update 25?
I can successfully run our application on my local machine via Eclipse and the webcam image loads. When I run my application from Web Start it does not load any image and errors out with the following error:
java.lang.NullPointerException

Hi - I have exactly the same issue. Referring to Java 1.7_25 release note, i have also included permissions/codebase attributes in jmf jar manifest file but it did not help. With the permissions attributes i dont see the warning missing permissions, but it not solve the actual problem. JMF throws following NPE exception in my case
Exception in thread "JMF thread: SendEventQueue: com.sun.media.content.unknown.Handler" java.lang.NullPointerException

Looking for a good Javascript to let me know if the "Enable applet plug-in and Web Start Applications is enabled" is disabled or enabled within Java Preferences?

If this code could work on Snow Leopard as well, that would be awesome. I have a code to tell if Java is enable or disabled on any web browser, but it does not detect if the Java Preferences "Enable applet plug-in and Web Start Applications is enabled" is enabled or disabled. Just looking for a specific code to tell if this option is disabled or enabled.
Thank you

Launch Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences.app by double-clicking.
EDIT; But I think you are confusing this with JavaScript which has nothing to do with it.

Does anyone know if I can download this version of Java - for OS X 2012-005 - the new Java update is a total mess for me and is preventing me from working remotely... :-( really need to go back to older Java, don't have the Time Machine set up ... Thx

I wonder if it's a variation of this, of which I've seen many different symptoms...
http://km.support.apple.com/library/APPLE/APPLECARE_ALLGEOS/TS4135/TS4135_01-osx _1072-login_window-001-en.png
Resolution
Move the mouse or trackpad cursor over the center area of the login window so you can see the user icons. Click on the icon of the user that you would like to login as, type in the user's password, and press Return.
If the login window is configured to show only the name and password fields, type in the user's name and password into the fields, and press Return (even if you cannot see the rest of the login window).
Additional Information
This issue will not occur if the display is not sleeping when the account is logged out. Use the steps below to confirm that the account is not configured to log out automatically while the display is sleeping:
Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. Click the padlock to unlock the preference pane and enter your admin password. Click the Advanced button at the bottom, then see if the option "Log out after N minutes of inactivity" (where N is the number of minutes) is enabled.
Open System Preferences > Energy Saver and configure Display Sleep to occur after the account is logged out, by dragging the slider to a number of minutes that is greater than N was set to in the previous step.
Important: If automatic log out is not needed, disable "Log out after Nminutes of inactivity" in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. This will also prevent the issue.

I wanted to know if you are asking for the html version or you want the html itself. ..I want you to post the complete, (but short & validated) HTML used to test this applet, directly into the thread - with code tags. I'm really not sure what you mean by the HTML 'version'. The only thing I can associate with that is HTML Spec. 3.2, 4.01, 5.0 etc., but I cannot see how it relates to anything I mentioned (and in any case, the 'version' should be obvious from the copy/pasted HTML).
..The website is our client website and this problem is coming during login. I won't be able to share the credentials with you. I don't want any 'credentials', but I will expect that if you are serious about solving this problem, you will set up a version of the applet at a public URL so others can see it fail if they think it will help solve the problem. Of course, what you do is up to you, because ultimately it is your problem, not ours. (I just thought I'd stress that last part to indicate to you that it is your onus to encourage people to read, experiment & answer.)
The only change I need to do to make it work is enable update 23 and disable update 24 in Java Control Panel.Have you tried searching the bug database for hits? There were some security updates in 1.6.0_24 that affected a number of things, including copy and access to the Robot. Perhaps there was a bug introduced at the same time.
..Unless I have misunderstood & what you are trying to do is somehow related to (yet) another security bug fix. ;)

Latest Java Update Loses JarBundler, Breaks Some Bundled Java Apps

Hi all,
I installed the latest Java update this morning. After installation, the "Jar Bundler" program was gone, and I had to re-install Xcode to get it back.
Also, one of my bundled java apps now no longer works. I can launch the same code from the command line using "java -jar <my jar file name>", but launching the same bundled jar file gives the following console error:

I have discovered my problem and solution.
The JavaApplicationStub file in the app bundle was configured to run x86_64 which the library does not support. This is apparently new to the latest release of Java.
In order to solve the problem, use the lipo tool. Here is what I did:
lipo -remove x86_64 JavaApplicationStub -output JavaApplicationStub
In addition it is also recommended that the LSArchitecturePriority key be added to the info.plist. I added the following to the main properties:
<key>LSArchitecturePriority</key>
<array>
<string>i386</string>
<string>ppc</string>
</array>
This specifies the allowed architectures in their preferred order.

Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

Office 365 Error: We're sorry, but (program name) has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly. (Program name) will need to be closed as a result.

Today we had this error code on starting Office programs out of the blue. We've had this error in the past and we know what caused it, but that action wasn't taken. I've already read other posts, but no "Answer" provides a real solution to a clear
problem with Office 365.
The error: "We're sorry, but (program name) has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly. (Program name) will need to be closed as a result."
It offers "Repair Now", then the two following options: "Online" or "Offline". Neither are effective.
In the past we used the Office 365 Fix It tool, but uninstalling and reinstalling Office on a regular basis is unacceptable. Resorting to web apps is also not going to happen.
Running Win 7 Pro 64 bit, fully updated.
We're starting to get fed up with this broken software. Paying monthly for programs that don't work is ridiculous. Any real answers would be greatly appreciated!

Locate your Office application and check the setting of Compatibility.
For example,
Right click on Excel (.exe) > Properties > Compatibility > uncheck all the boxes, click Ok and check if it helps.
To access Excel (.exe), open the following location:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\Excel.exe
Or
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\Root\Office15\Excel.exe
Try to open Excel and check if it opens.

Safari won't load pages after latest java update

I did the java update last night and now there are a lot of web pages that don't load. I also tried Firefox and Opera so I believe it is the latest Java update not something else.
Is there a log some where that I can check to see if there are any error messages or other indications of what is actually happening?
Java for MAC OS X 10.6 Update 1

HI,
If you are running 10.4.8 then you need to update your system software to 10.4.11. And make sure you have the 2009-002 Security Update installed. Open System Preferences/Software Updatess - Installed Updates. Make sure that update is there. If not go here and download and install ...
http://support.apple.com/downloads/SecurityUpdate_2009_002__Tiger_PPC
Then repair disk permissions...
Quit any open applications/programs. 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.
And ... from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences - Security.
Where you see: Web content make sure the top 3 buttons are selected.
And ..
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Could be a 3rd party plugins causing the problem. Go to ~/Library/Internet Plugins. Move any 3rd party plugins to the Trash and restart your Mac.

The latest Java update breaks some vital applications

The latest Java update breaks some vital applications. I have reverted back to 7u45. But now, every time a java applet is used, the "later", "block", "update" window appears and stops the applet from loading. I must have this older release. Oracle does not throughly test their updates. Note: the apps the update breaks are actually Oracle apps.
I have checked the "do not ask again until next relesse" box every single time. Worthless.
Is there a way to stop Java version checks? I even have the box deselected for check for updates; ignored by OS X. I WANT CONTROL! Stop checking!
Ideas?

We are facing the same issue. We suggested all out customers not to install the updates Java 7u65 or 8u11 until there is a workaround or fix.
The wrong look & feel is causing the following problems:
- Either icons or text can be display on a button. Currently the majority of buttons are displaying an icon. Therefore the workaround is to set the text at least.
- Scroll-bars are displayed within all cells of a table column. The circumstances are not clear when these scroll-bars are displayed.

"Lync 2013" error we're sorry, but outlook has run into an error that is preventing it from working

Hi -
So I've an legal Office 2013 version running on my Surface Pro 2, which works fine.
I installed lync client 2013 (not from the appstore, but the desktop version) and on first sight, seems to work as well.
Now comes the issue - when I want to join a meeting, the following error comes up:
"we're sorry, but lync has run into an error that is preventing it from working''
I already re-installed Office and Lync several times - but the error keeps coming and it getting really frustrated because I cannot join any meeting.
Tim

Hi,
Please check if the Lync conference add-in is active in Outlook.
You can check with the following steps:
Click File button on Outlook, Options--Add-Ins. Make sure the Lync Add-in for Microsoft Office 2013 in the list of "Active Application Add-ins". If it is in Inactive Application Add-ins or Disabled Application Add-ins, active it and then restart
Lync client and Outlook to test the issue.
If the issue persists, please also delete Lync user profile and Outlook profile to test the issue.

Is it ok to download the latest java update:

Is it ok to download the latest java update? I thought I had heard of a problem with them?

The Java 6U35 (1.6.0_35) that you currently is rather old, so you should either update to the latest Java 6U41 or Java 7U15 version to be protected against security vulnerabilities.
You can find the latest Java version on the Oracle website.

I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
