Also, everything I have read is don't try to uninstall Java...too linked, too many shared files. So, I simply don't do any more updates from Java, and oddly, Java tells ME that all updates have been done. Despite my requiring I be notified before installing and rejecting that last one, maybe two. When I clicked on update today in Java Settings, said I was up to date, yet I rejected this a.m.'s request to install latest update.
Also, seems as though my disabling Java in browser, but allowing java scripts has caused me no problems.
Again, can't even put it on iPads. Says does not support the program.
So...right now, if it ain't broke....
I won't use it for streaming quotes, since that is only place I used full program. When I did use it, it tells you you are opening Java and do you want to run it. So I just don't use it. Don't need it. I can get streaming quotes elsewhere. At Scottrade, they find it an issue with Scottrade that two major parts of their platform are not Apple-friendly.
Nowhere, do I see an easy way to uninstall Java 7. If someone has one that doesn't require typing in all kinds of commands and removing elements....it should come with uninstall, but it doesn't and of course it can't just be dragged to trash.
