Where do I get Java Runtime for Snow Leopard

Hi,
I'm doing some design work for a programmer. and last month he told me that mine was probably outdated, and that I needed the latest JRE (version 7u5) to run his .jar app. I don't really want to use a PC for that...so I'm trying to get this running on my Mac.
I went to oracle's website and the latest update is for Lion, I don't know where to find the latest one compatible with now leopard. Does anyone where this is?
And another question, does anyone if that installing JRE if this could compromise the security of the Snow Leopard?

Why not? It's a simple thing to dual-boot and you get to run the appropriate Java JRE on your Mac. The only expense is the $20 Lion costs and the time to DL if from the MAS. Do note that you have to get a redemption code via e-mail from its online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. That allows you to run both OSs, get the job done, and, when finished, you can always erase the Lion volume, leaving you exactly where you are now. BTW, if you do DL Lion, quit the installer and save a copy of that Install Mac OS X Lion.app so you don't have waste resources DLing it again, either to reinstall it or recover it. The ill-designed installer deletes itself during the installation process.

  • Where do you get jnlp.jar for Mac Leopard 10.5.5

    Hello,
    I am trying to use Persistence in JNLP on a Mac 10.5.5 with either 1.5 or 1.6. I have searched
    my local disk the Mac developer web site and this website for "jnlp java Mac Leopard" no useful results.
    Where can I get a jnlp.jar file that works on a Mac?
    Rinaldo

    I was able to get the question answered on the mailto:[email protected] list.
    My friend http://www.google.com/search?q=jnlp.jar+mac+java&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t answered it.
    Greg also provided some very useful information, especially the mdfind javaws.jar command
    http://lists.apple.com/archives/Java-dev/2008/Nov/msg00052.html
    I see that in JDK 1.5, javaws.jar is included. For now I will assume that the javaws.jar classes have been moved to javaws.jar
    jar tvf ./Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/lib/javaws.jar | grep jnlp

  • I have 10.5.8, how and where do I buy the disc for snow leopard?

    I have a Macbook that I bought a few years ago, and I have the os x 10.5.8.  I want to upgrade to the snow leopard and cant find where to buy the disc or downlaod.  I want to update so I can get icloud to use it with my new iphone.  Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard isn't available for download. You need to buy it from the Apple online store (in the US 800-MY-APPLE). It will be on the legacy product list. Once you install it, you can use Software Update to bring it up to the 10.6.8 release.

  • Where do I find retail install for Snow Leopard?

    Like, I keep seeing the upgrade packages on the store.apple.com but I don't see anything to just buy a fresh Snow Leopard OS to install on a hard drive that is totally blank. The Family Leopard pack for 49.99 just seems a little cheap to be a full install instead of an upgrade... I would like to find the full install but I am not seeing it on the apple store site.. maybe I am just blind....
    BTW, this is on a macbook.

    Apple does recommend that you purchase the Mac Box Set if you're upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard, but in this situation, you can get by with just the Snow Leopard disc, Single User ($29) or Family Pack ($49). Despite it's much lower price than previous Mac OS X operating systems, the disc does indeed work as a standalone installer.
    I've sold hundreds of licenses of Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and I have yet to get a complaint.

  • Does anyone know where to find and download xcode for Snow Leopard?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can register as a free Apple developer in http://developer.apple.com, access to the Mac Dev Center and download Xcode 3 from there with Snow Leopard compatibility. This is the only way of getting Xcode 3, apart from the Snow Leopard disc or the DVDs that came with your Mac

    iWork '09 is still available from the likes of Amazon.
    Your experience is why I never trusted downloaded versions when there's a physical DVD available.
    It may be possible to reactivate with your code, but I can't advise you as to how.

    Make a good backup or clone (CarbonCopyClone or SuperDuper) before upgrading as things sometimes go bad.

    and
    HP PN: 518819-001 Rev.B
    I've had my Mini 110-1000 running our music system for a couple of years, no complaints.  When I wanted a CD/DVD drive, I purchased a DE8A4L external USB drive directly from HP.  It didn't come with a driver disc.  When I plug it in, the USB subsystem does not enable it.  Device Manager shows a yellow exclamation point, saying, "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware..."   It is running Windows XP Home Edition SP3.
    What gives with this device?

    Following up on tactic 2) above, I upgraded the BIOS from version F07 to the latest version available on the HP download site, version F19.  This went well, but unfortunately the system still does not recognize the device.
    When I try to Device Manager, and select the DE8A4L DVD device, and try "search for a device driver", it says it cannot find a better match for the driver already installed.
    This Mini 110-1000 only came with 1 Gb RAM, and Windows XP Home.   Is one of these a critical limitation for running an external USB DVD drive?
