Would you like to check and install one? I try to install but get the error" download error". As far as i know I'm using Adobe Java 7. None of my CS5 suite works anymore............and i really dont want to upgrade to a monthly cloud service fee as i hate this policy with a passion.

You just have to install Java 6, as Java 7 is not compatible with Adobe CS5. Download and install Java 6 from the Apple site > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US Finally, you should be able to open your Adobe CS5 apps

This goes for Dreamweaver CC on Mavericks!!!!! THANK YOU!

I couldn't launch Dreamweaver CC. An error told me to install "java se 6 runtime". But when I clicked OK I got another error telling me there is a network problem! I found this forum post on CS6 products, so I tried the download link, installed java 6 and presto, it worked! Thanks!
