Trouble installing Jdeveloper on mac os X

I have downloaded the .jar-file to install Jdeveloper 11g on my mac. I have also installed the latest JDK-kit, I think. It's a little difficult to understand, but I downloaded it from Appels site and when I look under the specified place, Java SE 6 64 is at the top.
I've tried to follow the installation instructions but get stuck all the time, it's a tad to technical for me since I'm not a hacker yet!
This is what the instruction says: "To streamline your installation process, the JDK you wish to use with the product should be the one you use to start the installer program. In that case, be sure the desired JDK is the first one in your system PATH, or reference it explicitly on the command line."
I don't know what first in your system path is, or how I reference it on the command line. Thats the first problem.
I don't know what it means when it says : "To launch the platform-independent installer, enter: java -jar jdevstudio11113install.jar." Enter where???
I've tried dubbel clicking on the install file and it seems to be working al right untill I come to the JDK Selection part. Here I've tried browsing and selecting every map that has something to do with java, but all I get is that is't not the right "home" or what ever. I've tried googling it and found the pathways people have used, but nothing works! I've found the "hat contains the child folder bin, which in turn contains java.exe." but I have no .exe-file, since it's a mac.. I've found a file that's called 1.6.0.jdk that's in a folder caller Java Virtual Machine, but it doesn't work.
I really need help!!

Yes, very many times. However, the instructions there are for after installing. But, since nothing else works, I tried that to and couldn't get it to work ether.. Not my day.
I can't enable the root user, because I have no Edit meny in my Directory Utility application, I have tried for over an hour with that. My menues doesn't have that button.
And, I also cant understand if I write in all the
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/
su root
mkdir jre
cd jre
mkdir lib
cd lib
ln -s ../../../Classes/classes.jar rt.jar
at the same time, or if I hit the return key for every line break..
I'm feeling quite stupid now..

    i am not able to instal jdeveloper on my macbook air which has mavericks 10.9.3 version please help me

    If it originally shipped with 10.6.8 or earlier, install iPhoto from the computer's original disks. If you don't have those, ask the seller for them or phone AppleCare and order replacements.
    If it originally shipped with 10.7 or newer, upgrade the computer to Mac OS X 10.9. If you don't want to upgrade it, go to the Mac App Store main page, choose Support under Quick Links, contact Apple, and see what they say.

  • Trouble installing .plugin files (Mac)

    After hearing everyone rave over Twixtor for the past few years, I finally decided to give it a shot. I'm having trouble figuring out the installation though...
    I hope the documentation isn't a predictor for the quality of this plugin. There is nothing here in the way of installation. I ran the installer, which when finished sent finder windows into focus. i see the (.)plugin files and a few pdf's, but they don't show up in my premiere effects. After searching a few sites, I copy/pasted the files to my "MediaCore" folder (/libraries.../cs6/mediacore) which did bring them into my effects within premiere. I spent a few minutes toying with some settings (a la a youtube tut) and rendered my work area. I was pretty aggrevated to find a watermark every few frames when it was done.
    I contacted support, who in turn sent me the pdfs I already had (no install guide as far as I can see). I responded, asking for some detailed help and haven't gotten a response since this morning.
    Am I missing some step? If I double click the .plugin, a termal window opens - is this how I need to install them?
    Note: I found another post explaining the After Effects install process. For that I simply drug the plugins to the "plugin" folder under AE CS6 -> Plugins in my applications directory. The plugin works perfectly in AE (no watermark issues). I'd really like to get it working in Premeire though, just to save me a step in my workflow.

    Hi oramr,
    Were you able to install all the software correctly? I am not sure if this is what concerns you, but I got some information from this doc Install Adobe Creative Suite 5
    "Note: Discs labeled "Content" contain optional, nonessential files that are not required to install the product. For example, a Content disc can contain ReadMe files, tutorials, or example files. You can install this content manually by copying it to your hard drive when you want to access the material. Most content can be copied to a location of your choosing. For instructions on installing fonts, see one of the following documents:

  • Trouble Installing CS4 on Mac Book Pro with Lion 10.7.3

    Hello,
    I'm having trouble with this. As instructed by Adobe I'm working with the original CD to install this to my laptop. It goes
    up to installing Adobe Air, about half way through the whole installation and then stops. I have tried resetting the permissions- I'm installing in the root user account. This was what Adobe tech help had me do to successfully install Light Room 2 first and then
    an update.  The update was more compatible apparently with Lion.
    Any ideas of what is going on? I wonder if this has something to do with Lion?
    Thanks for any ideas.

    Hi,
    Based on your description you are doing it right.
    This happens to everyone, where you are skipping a step without noticing it.
    Start again from the beginning..
    Or maybe CS4 is not supported on Lion 10.7.3 >?
    Cheers

  • Trouble Installing Lr4 onto Mac Laptop

    Mac MacBook Pro meets all Lr4 stated requirements.  It has a core-duo Intel processor, running Mac OS 10.6.8, has
    plenty of RAM & hard-disk space on a SSD drive & 1440 x 900 ppi resolution.  Once Lr4 is installed, the icon is
    covered by a grey circle with a slash, stating it is not supported. 
    When Adobe 800 customer service is contacted, the script readers in India state that Lr4 is not supported on a SSD drive.
    I find this unbeliveable, especially given the latest Apple offerings come equipped  with otional SSD.

  • Anyone having trouble installing microsoft office mac home student ?

    keeps saying i have to shut down safari, but even once i've shut safari down it still doesnt go to completion....  :S

    Another point of interest at the end:    If you see a blue, horizontal, oval light on the Dock under the Safari icon then Safari is open.  The same applies to any application for that matter. 
    Clicking the red button at the top left corner of the window does not Quit Safari.  Instead it closes the window.  To properly Quit Safari, click the Safari menu, then click Quit Safari.   Alternatively, Command-Q is the keyboard short cut. 

  • WTF ? Where's JDK ? Struggling to Install JDeveloper 11g (11.1.2.4.0)

    Hi Everyone !
    I"m struggling to re-install JDeveloper 11g (11.1.2.4.0) in my Mac OS X Mountain Lion (Version 10.8.4). Can someone please assist me with this issue ? I believe I might have ran into this, with an earlier version; but recently had computer problems and to wipe my system and upgrade my HDD and Memory. So, I'm back to square one and need to install this pursue my independent Java 7 programming self-lessons.
    If this questions seems trivial or beneath you, I apologize in advance. I'm just a newbie wishing to improve myself through the acquisition of new I.T. skills.
    God Bless.

    Frederick ,
    May I know what is the error that you are encountering ? .  Hope the below info might help you
    nstallation on Mac OS
    Some additional steps are required to install JDeveloper on Mac OS beyond what is documented in the installation guide. Please refer to the installation guide (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26098_01/install.1112/e17074/toc.htm) for additional details on installing JDeveloper for Mac OS X.
    1. Make Java 6 the default VM.
    Run Java Preferences (in /Applications/Utilities/Java)
    Move the Java SE 6 (64 Bit) to the top of the Java application versions list (General tab)
    2. Create a symbolic link for classes.jar (requires root access)
    To enable root user:
    For Mac OS versions older than Snow Leopard, simply open the Directory Utility app from Applications - Utility
    For Mac OS versions Snow Leopard and more recent:Go to System Preferences - Users and Groups. Click Login Options, and then the Join button (enable configuration changes if necessary). Then, proceed by clicking Open Directory Utility.
    Ensure the settings are unlocked (click the lock if necessary)
    Choose Edit > Enable Root User and provide the root user password.
    Note, you can return to this same screen to disable root user after creating the symbolic link
    Create the symbolic link from a terminal session:
    Note: You may need to repeat the steps to create the symbolic link after installing a new JDK.An additional step is required to successfully run applications on Mac systems that have Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4 installed (8681385):
    Open the jdev.conf file. The file is located in the MW_HOME/jdeveloper/jdev/bin/ directory.
    Add the following line to the jdev.conf file: AddVMOption -Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/tmp
    Thanks

  • Installing Jdeveloper 11g on MAC OS 10.4.11?

    Has anyone successfully installed Jdeveloper 11g on MAC OS 10.4.11? I've found examples Jdeveloper 11g on MAC OS 10.5 but nothing on 10.4.11.

    The issue is not so much with JDeveloper but with the JDK. There isn't a supported (easy) install of JDK 1.6 for Tiger, and the current JDeveloper requires it. There are some hacks around if you search for JDK 1.6 and 10.4 or Tiger, but JDeveloper/Weblogic are quite complex and I just imagine there would be issues with SoyLatte or whatever other JDK was used. I am going to finally upgrade to Leopard I think, seems easier and more of a sure thing to get JDeveloper/Weblogic working correctly so I can work on the road as well as at my Linux workstation in the office.

  • Having trouble installing Adobe Flash player 17.0.0.134 on Mac OS 10.10.1.  Currently have 16.0.0305 flash player installed

    Having trouble installing Adobe Flash player 17.0.0.134 on Mac OS 10.10.1.  Currently have 16.0.0305 flash player installed.  I've tried quitting Safari.  Have not uninstalled currently Adobe as yet.  How to fix?

    Sorry, when I try to install Flash Player 17.0.0.134, it will begin initialing, then stop saying "Installation Failed" and to press "Finish".  It then directs me to troubleshooting.  I made sure I quit Safari as per their instructions, but have not gone as far as "uninstalling" my current Flash Player 16.0.0.305, because it looks like I will screw something up in the process.
    Hope that information helps.
