Unable to update Java

Okay, the answer to this is pretty obvious. I still have Snow Leopard and have discovered that I cannot update Java because I don't have Lion.  I know I'm going to end up being forced to upgrade because keeping stuff updated is a really good idea. Does anyone know if they are planning to stop supporting Snow Leopard, with all the things that are slowly becoming incompatible? It may not even matter in a year, as nothing may work on it anyhow by that point, but I'm wondering if I should just face the facts and deal with Lion (tried it, couldn't stand the interface). Thanks!

Nobody has a crystal ball.   You'll always have those who still run 10.2 and even 9.2.
The question is how sophisticated are the applications you wish to run, and the websites you want to visit, and whether or not you are willing to keep up the PRAM battery every 4 years, and ensure your hard drives are regularly replaced.  Keeping a clone backup regularly is a good idea anyway.   And upgrading past 10.6.8 will make it harder to run pre-Intel applications, but not impossible.  So decide for yourself, is Lion really worth your while?

  • Unable to update Java to the latest version

    When I try to update Java, when I get to 'Close Programs to Continue', one of the programs I am told I need to close is 'Start'. Doing this means I have to restart Windows 7. The problem is that the Java installation doesn't resume after I've done this.
    Presumably, one of the processes that starts up with Windows uses Java, but I've got no idea which one. I've tried ending various processes in Task Manage, but this doesn't help.
    Has anybody got any suggestions, please?
    Thanks,
    John

  • Unable to update java source in Creator

    I am getting the following error:
    C:\Selenium\java\com\thoughtworks\selenium\ClientDriverPISuite.java:51: generics are not supported in -source 1.4
    (try -source 1.5 to enable generics)
    I have tried all of the solutions found in this forum that I could find. I have changed all of the files that I could find from using 1.4 to 1.5 and1.6. I have restarted Creator and I have JDK 1.6 as well as Selenium and Creator and Netbeans. I have found no easy way to set an update or to update a path to the JDK.

    It is the version application server that is the limiting factor in Creator. You can execute the IDE itself with jdk1.5 but not use jdk1.5 for your projects. Visual Web Pack 5.5 does allow use of jdk1.5 in creating EE5 projects. This would mean upgrading to VWP 5.5.

  • HELP! Newbie: Unable to update fields

    Hello.
    I am teacher of a Java course and I am teaching Kodo JDO to my students. But
    I am unable to update my persistent fields to the DB. I have a persistent
    class Employee with two fields: name and wage. I have the following code:
    PersistenceManager pm = JDOFactory.getPersistenceManager();
    Transaction tran = pm.currentTransaction();
    fillDatabase(pm,tran);
    Employee john = getJohn(pm);
    tran.begin();
    System.out.println("Before update" + determineState(john));
    john.wage = 20000.;
    System.out.println("After update" + determineState(john));
    tran.commit();
    pm.close();
    Employee John never gets updated to the DB. The program has the following
    output:
    Before update. Persistent-Clean-NonTransactional
    After update. Persistent-Clean-NonTransactional
    That is, the field doesn't get dirty.
    I attach all the source code to this message. It's a very simple example.
    What am I doing wrong? How can I persist my updates to the DB?
    Please I'm desperate. I don't know how to do and I need this solution for
    tomorrow afternoon (I have class with my students then).
    Any help would be gretly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Of course, I always advocate the benefits of encapsulation with my students.
    In this example, I declared my fields as public only because I was trying
    with private fields and it wasn't working (I don't know why). So I try with
    public fields to see whether it would work.
    Anyway, I had encapsulated my fields and everything worked OK. I was in
    trouble (the class is only some hours away and some of my students are
    prospects of customers so my image is fundamental). You have get me out of
    trouble.
    Thank you for your help.

    john.wage = 20000.;JDO detects field updates by modifying the bytecode of the class accessing
    the field. When you use public fields, that means all classes thataccess
    the fields need to be run through the enhancer, even if some of thoseclasses
    are not persistent themselves (note: only persistent classes
    should have metadata -- the enhancer uses the presence of metadata to
    determine whether to make the class persistent or just modify persistent
    field access to other classes).
    Because it's a pain to track which non-persistent classes accesspersistent
    fields of persistent classes, we recommend that you keep your persistent
    fields private, or protected and only accessed by subclasses. Plus, as a
    teacher, I would think you'd be advocating the benefits of encapsulation
    anyway :)

    I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help.  I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default.  I am not sure what I am doing wrong.  I have contacted redplum and no one will help.

    No Apple response???  Redplum/Valassis will not help either.  I searched, using the cups error message and though it is Unbuntu, same error so maybe useful...only problem: details would not display unless I join Unbuntu forum.  What a pain to do anything with my Mac or find any help.  I honestly regret buying this buggy OS.
    Anyway, here is what I found, FYI:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=483415
    As the old saying goes: when in doubt, consult the manual. The problem appears to be that I added the printer using the KDE Add Printer Wizard. It was automatically given a "socket" URI instead of an "lpd" one. When I:
    - altered the printer settings at http://localhost:631 (the CUPS admin page) as instructed in the manual for the printer, and
    - copied the PPD file into a second place on the hard drive (as instructed on ubunutuforums, see the link above)
    ..everything started working.
    It's still slower than windows, but I can live with that
    Probably a simple fix. Change the socket I.P. to match the printer I.P. like this:
    socket://192.168.1.86:9100. The thing I'm concerned with using socket:// is that AFAIK the printer I.P. must not change. In my case I'm able to assign a static I.P. address to the printer but it's something to consider.
    I found that the only thing I needed to do was change socket to lpd (and remove :9100 off the end as well). See Solving Ubuntu printer “broken pipe” problem (DocuPrint C525A) . BTW thanks for steering me in the right direction - very grateful.      
    Solving Ubuntu printer “broken pipe” problem (DocuPrint C525A)
    Posted on November 25, 2008
    Are you having a problem with your printer under the latest versions of Ubuntu (perhaps it worked under an older version)? Are you able to print short documents, but not longer, or more graphics-intensive, documents? (e.g. the unfortunate people at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=625493). Do they sit there as Processing for ages and then switch to Held? If you have the same problem I had the solution I tried may work for you too. Firstly, check your cups error log:
    sudo gedit /var/log/cups/error_log
    If you see anything like the following, the solution may be simple:
    [Job 201] Unable to write print data: Broken pipe
    PID 13359 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/socket) stopped with status 1!
    System > Administration > Printing and right click on your printer, selecting Properties. Settings > Device URI
    If you see something like socket://your_printer_ip_address:9100 just change socket to lpd and remove the :9100 off the end. Then click on apply.
    Apparently lpd is a more modern protocol which works with most printers whereas socket is more raw (and potentially faster but riskier in a network situation). Somewhere along the line, the default Ubuntu/Gnome setup for networked printers shifted from lpd to socket. Some primitive printers will have benefited whereas a larger number of more modern printers will have suffered.
    Please correct me if I am wrong (which is highly possible) but the underlying problem could be that socket may make the printer wait a long time for a large file to be processed ready for printing. Some printers, such as the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A, may drop the socket if things take too long to start coming through.
    Changing timeout settings might work but lpd is better than socket so it is the preferred solution in any case.
    If this works for you, please leave a comment to let others know (ideally with a description of the printer and Ubuntu version). Printer may be relevant if it doesn’t support the direct stream protocol properly. NB I may take a while to let your comment through because of the volume of spam. Sorry about that.
    Finally, thanks to sphilli8 for the steer in the right direction at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6245626.

    plugins disabled- java and flash. Unable to update. Have updated from their websites with everything else closed- still no update. Have followed the questions here, nothing works-being told 'The plugin check page is having some bugs today.' does not resolve a recurring problem that has continued for weeks. Would you prefer we all changed to a different browser that a) did not disable plugins arbitrarily and b) enabled updates when these were suggested?
    This should be a simple situation but for some reason mozilla is making it REALLY difficult- not to mention the fact that I had to register just to pose the question. PUH!

    nope, still not working. Have removed all copies of Flash via control panel as the other options did not function. Downloaded latest version and will not install.
    Java still disabled also. This is ridiculous! What is the point of a browser in which there is very little that one can actually browse without plugin problems???

  • OSX: Adobe Creative Cloud unable to update (stall at 50%)

    Hey experts,
    ever since signing up for Creative Cloud I have been unable to update any application as my regular user on OSX. After exchanging 23 emails with the Adobe support in 2013 I finally gave up and created a workaround in the hope that the Adobe developers would finally look into the issue and fix the bug. With the last update of Creative Cloud my workaround stopped working so I took time to do a complete reinstallation of Creative Cloud to see if the bug was finally fixed. It was not.
    The bug:
    -Installation of Creative Cloud and Photoshop, Lightroom etc. through the Creative Cloud app works.
    -Any try to update a CC applicaton (e. g. Photoshop CC 2014 results in the state "waiting" at 50%):
    -Trying to update through the menu of Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 "Aktualisierungen"
    resulted in the following error message:
    Translation: "Update failed. Unable to apply updates. Adobe Application manager is already running. Close all instances of Adobe Application Manager before applying updates. etc."
    What I tried to resolve the problem:
    What did not work:
    -Complete reinstallation of Creative Cloud:
         -Uninstall of all Adobe applications
         -Ran the Adobe CC Cleaner tool
         -Eliminated every single *[Aa]dobe*-folder on my disk including my profile.
         -Reboot
         -Re-installation using a fresh CC download.
    -The common 1st-level-support acts of desperation:
         -Rebooting
         -Checking the file system
         -Fixing permissions
    -The bug even survived 2 OSX system upgrades
    -Even tried to track down the bug myself which I gave up after having discovered the endless chain of Creative Cloud and AAM-Processes executing each other...
    What worked:
    -Installing updates as another OSX user. (Which is cumbersome and to be honest I am unwilling to create a new profile and redoing the settings of all installed (especially non-Adobe) applications because of an Adobe bug...)
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Unable to update apps on iPad mini. I have even restored the iPad and now I can't download any of my previously purchased apps.

    Can someone help me. I am using an iPad mini with iOS 7.0.4 with wifi connection. Have had no problems until recently when I was unable to update apps and then noticed that some apps would open but no data would be available in apps like intelicast and Pinterest. I have restored the iPad and now I am unable to download any of my previously purchased apps.

    1. Make sure iPad is using the latest software
    2. Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
    3. Make sure Time Zone is correct
    4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

    Error: 1013231 Unable to update database while in readonly mode for backup , how can i solve this problem ,plz can any one help on this
    Thanks

    Has somebody set the database ready for archiving, maybe some maxl has been run and the db has not been returned from read only mode.
    Try running the following Maxl (change app.db to match your app/db)
    alter database app.db end archive;
    Cheers

  • Unable to Update Database.

    Unable to update database while in readonly mode for backup
    Unexpected Essbase error 1013231I tried looking at Information Help Menu.
    I could not find the error number.

    Hi Atul,
    Thanks for the help.
    The Readonly error got resolved.
    But still the following error is displayed when I am loading data thru load rule.
    To Brief you up, I had done a database corrupt check using validate command because of the following error. The information map asks you to do the same since the other parameters are in the affirmative ie sufficient disk space, not using addsin, File is present.
    *Unable to Read Information From [C:\Hyperion\essbase\app\SMC\PL\PL-BS-LD.rul]*
    Unexpected Essbase error 1019003
    I used the VALIDATE <error.txt> command and found that the database is not corrupt.
    I also used the export command to see if everything goes well. That also works well.
    Note: I do not have any data in the Cube. I had cleared all data.
    Can you please help ?
    Regards
    Bal.
