  • HT1222 The update "Java for OS X 2012-006" can't be installed

    Hello - When updating software I get the following message:  The update "Java for OS X 2012-006" can't be installed.  You don't have permission.  I am using the admin user on this computer.  Any ideas?  I have problems in the past and had to clear cache - could this have caused some permission issues?
    Thank you!

  • HT5493 Advantages/Disadvantages? to update: Java for OS X 2012-006

    See there is an update to uninstall Java, but then click on webpage to download new Java from Oracle. Wondering if this is a good thing or not.

    Works here. Apple's no longer supplying the Java Runtime Environment component or managing it. Oracle is.

  • Cannot update / install java for OS X 2012 - 006 on 10.7.5

    after reinstalling/restoring from lion restore disk, on boot, system requests me to install java for OS X 2012 - 006
    with automatic download failed :
    after downloading the install file from downloads archive I got also bad response :
    I did also try to repair permissions and found many problems all with the same start route like this:
    ACL found but not expected on “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/....... and more ”
    please some help, thank you

    thank you baltwo for your reply
    well, the download of the files I mentioned before (second screenshot) ... the library files I just removed also before without success (not mentioned before, right) ... and now I tested other ways more and found a temporary solution ... I write down the steps for other users:
    1) first try: downloading the lion 10.7.5 combo update from apple downloads was not corrupted and was working fine, the itunes, java files where still corrupted and not working ....
    2) tested downloads of other web-pages -> all safe and working
    3) restart/reset router and airport = no success for requested apple downloads
    4) unplugged router/ethernet and download over airport only the apple-files through SU and was working ! success !
    so remains the question of all this why and how ? it's not the provvider, it's not ethernet, it's not apple download page ... ????
    however ... at the moment I'm safe and I hope everybody else with this problem finds the solution in the same way

  • Java for OS X 2012-006 Problem Failed Installation

    Hi, I have this problem with my Java for OS X 2012-006. I wanted to use a Java using application, but tells me to install a new version of Java (2012-006).
    Startup runs fine but then says that the Installation Failed.
    I tried this multiple times then gave up. I searched Google and it led me to:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5493
    I downloaded it, Mounted the DMG and ran the .pkg
    I agree to everything and then ran Install. Then the error "The Installation Failed" with a warning sign comes up, telling me to contact the software manufacturer.
    So i go on to the Java website, Searched up Installation Fail "Java" and then told me to Uninstall and then Re-Install.
    For Uninstalling, the files were not there. So I Ignored it.
    I then donwloaded Java 7 Update 10, but soon to be the same error as the Java OS X 2012-006 error.
    My Computer is a Late 2012 Macbook Pro 13-Inch.
    Is there any text that logs what I am doing in the installer? If you tell me where that is, i'll give it to you.
    Thanks for reading. And Please help.

    And This was when i installed Java Version 7 Update 10

  • HT5367 Why does Java for OS X 2012-006 lead to this article!!!

    On Apple.com -> Support -> Downloads, searching for Java for OS X 2012-006, opening the article to download leads to Java for OS X 2012-005.
    So I can't download the Java, and it's telling me I have missing content.
    Could use please fix this?
    Regards

    No I did have Java 7 installed.
    Then I uninstalled it, using the guide from here: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_uninstall_java.xml
    It worked fine with 1.6.0_35 untill Apple released 1.6.0_37, then it just stopped working. In Safari, FF and Chrome.
    Tried installing Java 7 again now that 1.7.0_9 had come out to see if that solved my problems, but no that was equally screwed. So uninstalled it again.
    Where Java should run it just says "missing addon" or rather since it's danish "manglende tilbehør".
    I daily support people with their computer, and I'm close to saying I have to reinstall my mac to get java working again, and that's just dumb.
    If they would just link to a proper download article so you could download java 1.6.0_37 for mac os 10.8 then the world would be a but more peachy.

  • The update "Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 12" can't be installed.

    When I try to update the Java in my mac os x 10.6.8 using the Software Update, I get the message:

    You're confusing the browser plug-in with the JVM.

  • Java for OS X 2012-006 says "A newer version is already installed"

    ...which is true.
    I downloaded the latest Java update today on OS X Lion 10.7.5 (and some other updates).
    I also updated to the latest Java from Oracle (so I was running 1.7 u9 and 1.6 u37). But, the Apple Java update today looks like it got rid of /Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences, so I was having some trouble trying to figure out another problem.
    Fast forward a bit and I've hosed up everything. I have Oracle 1.7 u7 installed, but need the Apple 1.6 stuff still. However, when I go to install it, I get the error above: "Alert: A newer version of this package is already installed."
    However, at this point I've deleted a bunch of files in /System/Libraries, in /Libraries, and there is no /usr/bin/java or /usr/libexec/java_home, etc.
    Where in the world does Installer find the previous version and know it's already been installed? Can I somehow make it forget it installed it once and just have it reinstall?

    OK, I think I fixed it (sort of).
    I had tried editing /System/Library/CoreServices/JavaVersion.plist and adding in an older version of Java, but maybe it was looking at the timestamp of the file? I eventually downloaded an earlier version of Apple's Java and manually extracted the packages/contents into a temporary directory. Then I copied over a few directions/executables into the reals /System/Library/Java* areas.
    I re-ran the 006 update and it stuck. I'm guessing the JavaVersion.plist file was it but I don't know for sure (would love to know for sure how Installer.app knows what is installed, where it looks, etc).
    I think this also blew away my Oracle Java 7 install, but that's okay for now because I think I can reinstall that easier.
