Told I Need Older Version Of Java

Hi, I started having issues in a chat environment after recently installing Java which came with OpenOffice. I was told for my browser to work as before, I needed to get an older version of Java. Is it possible to have different versions, or do I need to uninstall the present (uplevel) one? Thanks.

Check a source such as Amazon or eBay, or try following these instructions.

What are you missing?
I inherited this app and signing the third party jars is how it was setup, I was wondering the same thing too, why was it necessary to sign the third party jars?
The applet runs in either JRE 1.6.0_13 or JRE 1.6.0_27 depending on the other Java apps the user uses. JRE 1.6.0_13 does not have the mixed code security (so it is like is disable), but JRE 1.6.0_27 does have the mixed code security and the applet will not launch with mixed code security enable, so we have to disable it. With all the hacking going on in the last two years, is important to improve security; so this is a must.
Yes, I always clear up the cache.
Any idea on how to resolve this problem?

Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Java - I need older version

I am using a proprietary program that only works with an older version of Java. Before I start using Chrome or IE so that I can actually use my program, I thought I would give Firefox a chance to tell me how to fix this.

This problem is on your Windows 8.1 system?
Depending on how obsolete it is, you might be able to set the plugin to "Ask to Activate" so you can activate it on demand. Older versions, however, may be hard blocked. To check on that, open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins. Then find the "Java(TM) Platform SE" entry and see whether you can select "Ask to Activate".
If so, when you visit a site that wants to use the plugin, you should see a notification icon in the address bar and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an infobar sliding down between the toolbar area and the page.

HT5045 Is there a way to install older versions of Java, like Java 6 Update 26 on Mac OS X 10.7 ?

We have an application that worked fine on Java 6 Update 26. Update 29 broke the application. Even though we have fixed the problem, for people using older versions of the application, there is no recourse, if they have upgraded their OS to 10.7. So, is there a way to install Java 6 Update 26 on Mac OS X 10.7 ?

Hello,
I have a client that just started working remotely and needs to do payroll via her Mac OS X 10.7.5 system via a web browser. The payroll system appears to be ADP/Kronos as far as I can tell. We first tried using Safari and it said the plugin was missing so we downloaded the latest Java and installed. When we tried to run it dumped the following error. (see below)
At this point we decided to try Firefox and rather than a dump we found the message Java 1.6.0_07 required.
At this point we went hunting for an older version of Java and did find one only to be told if was specifically for OS X 10.5.x. My client is running OS X 10.7.5.
I have other clients running Windows that have multiple (older) versions of Java installed including 4, 5 and 6 all on one machine so I'm not sure if this is possible on Mac OS X or not.
Note I am not in charge of the payroll system and have no way of updating that side of things. I may recommend that my client contact her internal Help Desk or revert to using a Windows based system as I know for sure that would be capable of handling these requirements.
Thanks, Jason

TS3489 Can the older version of Java be restored to the Mac OS X 10.4.11? I have a new MacBook, but I like using my older desktop model for certain things.

Although I have a new MacBook, I also have an older desktop Mac OS X 10.4.11 (which I still use) that just recently "stated" the older Java plug-in has been removed and the newer version needs to be installed. The Mac OS X 10.4.11 doe not appear to be compatible with the updated version of Java. Prior to this week, my grandchildren have been able to play some online early childhood games with this computer and I have been able to watch the occasional YouTube video. Can the older version of Java be restored to the Mac OS X 10.4.11?

I'm not familiar enough with the Mac to know where your history is. Hopefully another Mac user can chime in.

HT5946 Is it possible to downgrade to an older version of Java?

Ever since I upgraded Java to version 1.6.0_65 (Update 17) it will not work. I am reluctant to upgrade my operating system (OS X 10.6.8) as everything else works fine. I have a not so new macbook pro (Intel core 2 duo) 2.53Ghz 32Bit (with 64 bit kernal). I can't find an older version of Java on the apple website (or anywhere else)
Thanks!

Ok. I have found that I can get this version of Java to work if I uncheck the box "Keep temporary files to ensure fast access" under Network in the Java Preferences. I don't really understand why but it works so I don't really care.

Silent Uninstall for older version of Java 2 RE.

Is it possible to do a silent uninstall for the older version of Java 2 RE, specifically, RE 1.3.1_11? I know that we can for the newer versions.

A silent uninstall of a JRE isn't supported until
1.4.2.Thanks for your reply. Was this because InstallShield was not the supported installer?

Hello helenennnnnn,
you could use Java Archive Downloads - Java SE 6 for example.
Good luck!

Installing older version of Java on OSX Lion

I am trying to install an older version of Java on OSX lion 10.7.3. The latest update conflicts with matlab, I want to revert to java version 1.6.0_37. I have downloaded the version I want but when I try to install it ( click on the *.pkg file) I get the message : A newer version of this package has already been installed
Any work arounds?

Give Shane Ross' blog entry a read:

It is on a different topic but see how he tricks the software into installing without removing an old version. You might could do the same if you follow those steps.

How do I get different and older versions of java plugin to work

I want to use firefox at my work, my company uses a program that uses java. But the programmers at my company aren't really good and when they check for the java plugin they check for the specific jre-6u21 instead of the generic with 6uXX. Sometimes I have to use another version of the program that requieres Version=1,4,2,06. They work fine with iexplorer.
If I update to the current version (update 24) Firefox can't find the plugin. Explorer just gives a warning that you might be missing important security updates.
Can Firefox give a warning or run with the latest version instead of looking for the missing plugins?

This is what Oracle has to say about the problem: [http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/other_jreversions.xml Download older versions of Java]
If you install an older version in Firefox it will be listed in Tools | Add-ons | Plugins and you can disable it there. But as Oracle mentions, using older versions potentially exposes your system to attack such as the one mentioned here: [http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Java-SE-6-Update-24-fixes-floating-point-bug-1190818.html Floating Point Bug]

Should I remove older versions of Java from Add/Remove Programs?

I have about 9 or 10 older versions of Java mostly version 5 updates 2-11installed in the Add/Remove programs section of Control Panel. Should I remove these or leave them installed before installing the next update 6.2?

Yea, you should definitely remove them via the add/remove tool.
Sometimes if you are developing for different versions you might
have more than one - but in most cases more than 1 or 2 is
unnecessary.

If you open the /Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences.app then the available Java Virtual Machines will be listed. I have a newer mac with 10.6.8 that has latest Java 6 version installed on it and an older macbook pro with the lastest Java 6 Virtual Machine version and the previous Java 6 Virtual Machine version .

Warning for users of older versions of Java thinking of upgrading to 10.6

I'm a pediatric oncologist and I use a MacBook Pro at work for many aspects of patient care. We have web based system that allows us to look at radiology scans from any computer via a browser. This system requires Java 1.4.2 to work -- it will not work with newer versions of Java.
In OS X 10.5, I would simply switch to Java 1.4.2 when needed and back when I was done. Unfortunately, Snow Leopard only installs Java 1.6. This leaves me completely unable to look at scans from my MacBook Pro.
Off the top of my head, if there was a way to take the Java 1.4.2 package from OS X 10.5 and install it on OS X 10.6, and to use Java Preferences to switch between Java versions, that would be a great solution for me, even with the understanding that Java 1.4.2 is EOL'ed and that no updates would be expected.
Today I contacted Apple Support, and the official word is that there is no way to install Java 1.4.2 under Snow Leopard, and that my only option at this point in time is to go back to OS X 10.5.
Unless someone can figure out a way to hack Java 1.4.2 from OS X 10.5 into Snow Leopard, that is.

I was able to get Java 1.4.2 working with Safari in Snow Leopard tonight. Here's how to do it.
1. Install Java 1.4.2 as outlined in this link:
http://wiki.oneswarm.org/index.php/OSX_10.6_SnowLeopard
Alternatively, extract Java 1.4.2 from the Java For Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4 installation package, and install it in a similar manner:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Javafor_Mac_OS_X_10_5_Update4
2. Make sure that Java 1.4.2 is the first 32-bit application in the list. Under Java Preferences, my list reads:
Java SE 6 64-bit
J2SE 1.4.2 32-bit
Java SE 6 32-bit
3. Open Safari in 32-bit mode via the Get Info window for Safari. This is where I was getting screwed up. It finally occurred to me that Java 1.4.2 is a 32-bit application, but if Safari was opening in 64-bit mode, it wouldn't use the 32-bit Java apps.
Once I opened Safari in 32-bit mode, Safari was able to use Java 1.4.2.
