What happens to java in mac osx 10.9.5
I'm working on a Macbook pro 2,5 Ghz, OS X 10.9.5
Im trying to run a program that works on java, the problem is that since its last actualisation the program doesn't open and shows the message: "Unable to run Java Runtime Environment".
I tried installing and actualising Java to its latest version on Mac (arguably this one: Version 8 Update 40). When I did so, the package didn't get installed and it showed the message: "trying to install Java 1.8.40.27, however 14.9.0 is already installed".
In the troubleshooting discussion of the software page i'm using (Zettlekasten, see: http://translate.google.de/translate?hl=de&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fzettelkast en.danielluedecke.de%2Fwiki%2Fdoku.php?i…), programers suggest modifying the operative version of java from the Java Control Panel. The problem is that i cannot have access to such panel because i cannot find java in my computer. It is supposed to be in the utility folder located in the Applications folder, but it's not there.
My questions, how can i make Java Runtime Environment run in my mac?
How can i access to Java configuration in my computer if there is no java control panel or similar?
I'd be deeply grateful if somebody could help me... in the meantime i just complain on mac's unilateral decision of considering that there are, from their perspective, some useless plug-ins as they did with Java...
Hmm. I didn't have that problem - maybe the order you install them in matters.
I have Oracle java 8u40 and:
Java for OS X 2014-001
both installed - they coexist because they install in different locations.
A visit to the oracle java web site shows I have 8u40, and in the Terminal I get:
java -version
java version "1.6.0_65"
(so that's JRE6)

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

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!

When I copy and paste text in facebook, the text looks fine until I hit 'share' or 'comment' to submit it. Firefox then adds indiscriminate line-feeds within the text and it looks nothing like the original text. It makes it very difficult to read and awful to look at.
This does not happen in Safari.
(Mac OSX 10.6.4 with Firefox 3.6.6).

http://Same problem, 3.6.8 and previous recent versions. I never thought to try another browser but I just pasted into IE and it worked fine. I copied from Firefox to IE and it worked as well. It's just when you paste into Firefox that you get the weird line breaks.

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 ?

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.

Sorry, I don't know where else to post a question like this. I see that the Apple website has been upgraded a bit, but I don't see the smaller menu bar, that used to list the "Made 4 Mac" page that listed 3rd party software and hardware. Maybe they don't want to maintain it, but it seems to have disappeared, with nothing showing up on a search. The downloads page doesn't seem to be quite as complete as the "Made 4 Mac", which typically had anything and everything in 3rd party listed, even stuff that hadn't been developed for awhile.
Anyone know what happened to it, or whether or not Apple has some way of notifying the public about this kind of discontinuation of a service when it happens? Thanks.Thanks, guys. I did try a few searches, but nothing would show. Wouldn't you agree this should be a useful page that should be easily accessed? Some pages show the "old" submenu, while others have the new, cleaner look. Haven't taken a look at the mac.com page yet, I imagine there is some tweaking to be done.
After owning over 35 Macs for work and home over a 20 year period, I am still in love with the technology but am now loathe to be the first to go 'Beta' or even upgrade the OS for the first 6 months. There are always headaches, I suppose it goes with the territory.

What happened?? My mac turned into a PC
Hi - any insight would be appreciated.
Using my gorgeous computer all day,.. as usual... late last night started to watch a DVD...
Then the problem started... in the middle of loading DVD.... it suddenly froze..I could do nothing.. nothing responded... I closed the lid.. when I opened it the fans started, I could hear other strange sounds... but the screen was completely blank... I then heard some mail come through... but still the screen was completley blank..then battery was charging, I was plugged into the mains.. and then the green lights on the key board lit up.. but nothing on the screen. Then I tried to hold the power button down for about 10 seconds, then the computer closed down.. an anxious night, worrying about my beloved mac and all the info on for a big thing on Monday. This morning, switched it on.. and bam everything is as normal... except that this thing happened, will it happened again. My mac has never frozen, long gone are those PC nightmares ..or are they ??? Any insight, or explanation would be great. ThanksHi Jo,
Welcome to Apple discussions! Unfortunately, Macs are not miracle devices. They are manmade pieces of technology and as such, they're not immune to problems like you describe. I have had similar experiences on my Macs at one time or another.
The first thing to try is reloading the same DVD that caused the problem. See if it loads correctly this time. If not, try a different DVD and see if the problem persists.
If everything works fine, I would not worry too much. It's likely the event was a one time thing. -
How to launch an app from Java in Mac OSX?
I would like to launch another application from my Java code which will run on OS X. Doesn anyone know how to do this? I think it involves the "Runtime.getRuntime.exec()" method, but I'm not sure how to tell it which application to launch.
ThanksI dont know about OSX but i can give you a generalized
solution. In all OS's there will be a way to get to
command prompt. It is not really true: MacOS is one noticeable exception! Version 9, like every previous one, was completely extraneous to the notion of "command prompt", because the Macintosh, since its origin to nowadays, has been a "fanatically" User-Centric system: everything is iconic. A side effect of this approach is that MacOS was a pretty hard platform for low-level developers...
In MacOSX things have dramatically changed: this OS is a powerful Unix-like one, with the beautiful dress that only a Mac can wear: and finally, all you Mac users, here it is: the shell!
Of course, in MacOSX (and in MacOS "classic" too) there are paths and executable files.
MacOS1-9 file-system was a very peculiar one: resource fork and data fork for every file, ":" as path components separator (but what "common" user has ever seen a Macintosh path?) and so on.
MacOSX will use an Unix-like filesystem, I guess (I'm not a Mac user, I like every OS for its beauties - and therefore dislike Microsoft products even if often they give me bread).
But the key question is: how do I tell the runtime which file it has to execute?
Fortunately, every modern SO I know adopts a hyerarchical organization of its files. So, indipendently of what is considered the "root" ("C:\", "/" or whatever else), you can "trace" a relative path from your current path (if you use an Unix or URL idiom, "./") and the file you want to reach.
So, if your java app ("JavaApp.class") is placed in a folder called "MyJavaApp", nested in another folder called "Programs" that you see when you click on the "MacHD" icon, and you can manually launch the Mac app you're interested in clicking on an icon called "MyMacApp Program", placed in a folder called "MyMacApp", nested in another folder called "Programs" that you see when you click on the "MacHD" icon (it's the same folder we said before :-) ), using Unix or URL sintax we have that:
your java application is at: [...]/MacHD/Programs/MyJavaApp/JavaApp.class
the Mac application is at:
[...]/MacHD/Programs/MyMacApp/MyMacApp Program
The relative path from the former to the latter is, therefore:
../MyMacApp/MyMacApp
where two dots ("..") are the symbol for "parent folder".
If the situation is similar to above, the code to launch MyMacApp should be something like this:
import java.io.File;
File currentDir=new File("");
//supposing that double dot (..) is the symbol for "parent folder"
Runtime.getRuntime(
new File(currentDir,".."
+File.separator
+"MyMacApp"
+File.separator
+"MyMacApp Program"
).getAbsolutePath()
in a more portable fashion - if you're not sure ".." works
(? who cares? we're launching a native app :-)) )
Runtime.getRuntime(
new File(currentDir.getParent(),
"MyMacApp"
+File.separator
+"MyMacApp Program"
).getAbsolutePath()
);Hope it works... good work! -
What level of encryption does Mac OSX Server use? Is it HIPAA-compliant?
I'd like to setup a network in my private practice and need it to be HIPAA-compliant. It is needed for filesharing (primarily), but also for calendar/contact services, and VPN (remote access). Does anyone know the level of encryption? Also, would it suit my needs?
Can computers other than Macs utilize these services?
Do they need to be running a recent OS?There is no such identifiable thing as "HIPAA compliant encryption" AFAIK, there is only what is considered best-practices, and that's an entirely locally-mandated discussion, and it's a moving target particularly with encryption.
This usually involves a discussion with somebody that specializes in regulatory compliance — the consultant or auditor that Linc Davis mentions would be an example — and what's then selected and approved by your regulatory compliance and lawsuit-avoidance folks (involving your "security official", whoever that may be), and usually what's recommended by an external entity with sufficient insurance coverage that's been formally retained in the organizational "backside covering" or "risk shifting" role.
Here's a summary of the regulations, and here are (some of) the specific details of the requirements.
Not running a current version of OS X in this particular context does seem ill-advised, however. While Best Practices is inherently a moving target, older software versions will not likely be considered Best Practice. Older versions tend to have errors and older encryption implementations, and these can be fixed or updated or replaced in newer versions, after all.
I'd tend to assume that FileVault2 or equivalent will be minimal here (particularly for mobile devices and to reduce the risk of data exposure due to wholesale device theft), though the access auditing and related is going to be central to the discussion. You may well want and will probably need to encrypt specific data, but you're definitely going to need accountability and auditing and access control atop the encryption.
Linc Davis is correct. Engage a specialist here. -

Hopefully someone else can say if it exist or not. Or can give some other information.

Unable to install java on Mac OSX Lion.
When getting promted with a "you must download java runtime"-dialogue box, it says I'm not connected to an internet connection when I most certainly are. I've tried every known method for installing java on this OS, all of them prompts me with the same error-message. As I am posting from my Macbook on this board right now, I am indeed connected to the internet.
... any thoughts? I think this is a tad more hassle than it needs to be.
Best regards,
trymv.Please don't close the thread.
The "solution" misses the point of the problem.
The Java runtime won't install because of some phanton network connection problem. The network works just fine for everything else, but this dialogue box ("To open “Dreamweaver,” you need to install a Java runtime, but you are not connected to the Internet.") keeps popping up, and then you are stuck. -
