This will be the third version of this question
where is the Java 6 download as per support pages.
And please do not show those previous answers
because anyone who has tried them know they do not work
except as a tiresome whirly girly.
Finally got file
noticed the button on the support page in Safari on Yosemite said
Download
I tried it and it worked.
The same? page on iPad said
Email Download Link.
The emailed link is a loop
and never reaches the file location
YMMV
should be fixed.
I don't doubt you're having issues accessing the page, but I am not. It instantly opened earlier in Safari on my Mac under Big Sur. I went to the page again just now on my iPad. Same thing. The page opened instantly and showed what I expected to see.
Did BDAqua's notes help at all? That is, do you have what most here consider garbage apps running? What about an ad blocker? I recently tried Block Bear just to see why it was getting so much attention. It stunk. It blocked so many legitimate sites from opening I dumped it after less than 10 minutes of testing and went back to Ka-Block!, which I've never had problems with.
Besides a different browser, have you tried booting into Safe Mode and accessing the page?
Safari on Yosemite gives a better picture
"Too many redirects occurred trying to open “https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?locale=en-us&viewlocale=en_US”.
This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page
which then is redirected to open the original page."
In other words, the official Apple support page goes
round and
round and
round and ...
and never delivers what it promises.
This is where the official Apple recognized link gets you
Apple's Java 6 is here:
https://support.apple.com/kb/dl1572?locale=en_US
Ignore the icon for Lion. It's for any version of the Mac OS from Lion through Mojave.
Does not work for me
I get Safari cannot open this page
what do you get?
Are you running any VPN, Anti-Virus, or Cleaning apps?
BTW might try this, it's Chrome without google & without Ads...
It may be one of those sites that only works correctly from Safari. Also, you must have the option on in Safari's preferences to allow JavaScript.
Nope, I don't see that version. Not even from the iPad. The button just says Download. I couldn't begin to guess why you're getting such a different result.
Result of button push
And that link goes nowhere.
I will give you an assist for persistence
Java 6 download
