The Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 10 removed the Java plugin from Firefox 5.0. How do I re-install it?

I've just installed Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 10 and can no longer run Java Applets from Firefox 5.0

I'm sure that this is 64-bit
CF 8.0.1 Enterprise Build 3080
I had moved the Java SE 6 to the top in both Plugin and Applications. The
correct version is showing in the terminal window. See below.

CF will not start. I have the activity monitor open, and when I start CF you
see it in the activity monitor for a few seconds as it starts up. When the
message process is completed in the terminal window CF disappears in the

Any suggestions?

Hi, Colin,
My apologies but I forgot to ask 2 questions: (1) What kind of Mac you have
(Intel or PowerPC)? (2) What version of CF are you running and what installer
did you choose (8 or 8.0.1, 32-bit, 64-bit, etc.)?
To start, try the following:
1. Normally you'd shut CF down first ... but that's not necessary for you
2. Open Java Preferences again
3. Select Java SE 6 and move it (drag) to the top spot in both section (Applet
Plugin and Applications)
4. Open Terminal
5. Type java -version (you should see 1.6.0_13 as the new version)
6. Try to start CF again
This may not work (I've had issues with it) but it's technically how it's
supposed to work. With the Java Preferences utility, you're visually setting a
default JVM (you can do it with commands in Terminal but this is much faster
and easier).
If CF still won't start, look for the jvm.config file in your CF application
folder (try /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin or
/Applications/ColdFusion8/runtime/bin -- the latter is where a jvm.config file
is on my machine for a particular version of CF that's installed similar to
yours). You can override the JVM in this file but, hopefully, that won't be
necessary!
Best,
Craig

  • ColdFusion 8 Fails to start after update Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 4

    I have been using ColdFusion on a Mac for years. Now CF fails to start after I updated Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4. I usually start by typing in the terminal window sudo /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin/ColdFusion start.
    There is a crash report but I don't know how to read it. See attached.

  • Java for Mac OSX 10.4 Release7 will not work with eTrade Market Trader

    After the latest update to 10.4.11 wich was the latest version of Java the java applet will not start. Talked to eTrade tech support and found out that their site only supports up Java1.6. Now I am trying to update my Mac Pro to 10.4.10 but can not find the update anywhere that is not bundled with the latest version of Java. Called Apple support, they did not have a solution, so to all you experts how can this problem be resolved ?

    Thank you for your response. I spent 2 hours on the phone with an Apple Tech, he was really good and we went through all the possibilities (thank god for Apple Care Plan). He even got others involved but we all could not come up with anything else than to do an 'Archive-Install'. I did repair permissions several times. My Mac was running great prior to the update, I actually own 7 Mac's and I am very meticulous with maintenance and backing up everything. By the way I love these things. But when the new update came out, I told everybody to backup and then update the Mac's. Now I have 1 Mac that runs 10.4.8 and 6 that run 10.4.11. They all work great and are in great condition, but the only one that can run the online trading platform is the one running 10.4.8 and all the others have the software to access my .Mac account. Since I have these Mac's indifferent locations (so I can travel without lugging one along) I enjoy using all the .Mac features. Everything was so easy before "Java for Mac OSX 10.4 Release 7" came out. I am just really frustrated. I just wish I could go back to 10.4.10. But all the updates are bundled with the Java release 7. Is there any place where I can find 10.4.10 ?

    Has anyone tried REAL VNC client for Mac OSX? Is it worth the money?

    you should not be getting that many crashes and unlike others here i don't see any strong reason to go to 7.2 other than to get to 7.2.1. i very strongly suspect you have dodgy AU's (probably around 218 of them) and if you have a look at your crash log it should show you why you are crashing. if you see an AU in the crash log it is telling you it is causing headaches. my guess is that upgrading is not going to solve your problems.
    just so you know, if everything is running as it should be logic will hardly ever crash. post up the crashed thread from your crash log next time it happens. also make sure that you have the proapp kit latest version.
    i know its deeply frustrating when things are going pear shaped. everyone but everyone feels that the stupid thing should just work and gets the over-whelming feeling that apple is supposed to make products that just work, that we paid good money for that level reliability and if it's going to act like this we might just as well have stayed with cheaper PC's. reality is, once you start throwing thrid party's into the mix it is really hard to keep control of reliabillity. if you took logic back to zero 3rd party plugs and in built audio, it would take fanatical fundamentalist to crash the thing. (having said that - i reckon i could)

  • Problem loading Java for Mac OS 10.5 Update 4.10 on iMac

    Software update has downloaded this update, but when it tries to install it, I get a message that ';it can't be installed because an error occurred during installation'.
    I have the latest 10.5.7 upgrade installed. The only other relevant factor I can think of is that I use Diskwarrior regularly.
    Can anyone suggest how to overcome the installation problem? Is it vital? Can I safely ignore this?

    I saw the same problem, which only went away after rebooting.
    This update is supposed to fix a serious security vulnerability in Java on the Mac.
    On the other hand it seems to cause some problems - for me it removed the Jar Bundler from the developer tools, and caused all my bundled Java apps to use 64-bit Java 1.6, instead of the default set for my system.

  • Please help me to install update  "software Java for Mac OS 10.5 Update 2"

    Several attempts failed. All applications were closed during these attempts. The upload froze each time in about the middle of the configuration process. No problems encountered when I installed this software on my MacBook 10.5.5.

    When using Software Update from the Apple menu, the update is downloaded and automatically begins installation. Particularly when the update is large (the Java update is more than 136 MB), and if your internet connection is relatively slow (modem or DSL), the download can get corrupted by a glitch in the internet transmission. That is why it is suggested that you download the file manually and install it locally.
    To download it manually, go to:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
    find the update you want and download it from there.
    Additionally, after I download the .dmg file with the update package in it, I open Disk Utility and do a Repair Disk on the .dmg disk image. Because it is a relatively small disk check, compared to a hard drive, the diagnostic only takes a few seconds and you can be reasonably assured the download was not corrupted.
    Before installing any system updates, and as an important general practice, you should have a bootable backup handy.

  • HT6041 does anyone have information re: motion 5.1 ? the latest security bulletin describes the need for it but neither  " software update: or the "app store"  seems to have it.

    I've just reinstalled my OS - and all seems to be working fine. I just ran the updates to get caught up with the Apple releases. However, this one install is failing and I've no idea why or how to troubleshoot - any ideas?
    Cheers.

    Resolved. For whatever reason my hardware firewall's anti-virus kicked in and decided this was a corrupt file. However, I by-passed and it seems to have installed without issue - so fingers crossed all is fine. Haven't had issue with any other Apple updates so it was a bit unexpected that this one would get blocked.

  • Photoshop 7.0 for Mac OSX

    I bought Photoshop 7.0 for my Mac OSX and it won't install. The site I bought it from won't return it because the package is open. (duh, I have to open it to install it) but I get a message saying my computer does not support PowerPC. I specifically bought the version for Mac OSX and when I put the disk in. the install icon looks strange and won't work. Is there something I can do to get it to install? I spent $250 on this program and since I can't return it I was hoping to find a way to make it work. The owner of the site I bought from is not being very cooperative about returns. Thanks

    Photoshop 7 is a PowerPC app. That means it was designed for a processor (IBM PowerPC) that Apple discontinued NINE years ago, and ended all support for more than four years ago.  If you have a Mac newer than 2009 there is no way to install this app, because it would require "Rosetta" which Apple stopped supporting with OS 10.7. "Rosetta" allowed PPC apps to run in an emulated environment, and Photoshop was one one that ran terribly in Rosetta, so it would be pretty much a waste of time to try.
    You would be best to try to sell it on ebay and recoup some of your money, but there is no way you'll ever use this with a Mac newer than 2009.
