how to install legacy java se 6 runtime for mac 10.10

This is the one, Download Java for OS X 2015-001, download and then double-click to install.

hahaha... circumstances brought me to this thread this morning and while it's early, your comment provided me the best laugh of the day so far. 🙂

Ez

I have downloaded version 8 update 144 but some apps do not open and ask for the java SE6 runtime

Hoy can I download it

This is the only link that worked for me

Download Java for OS X 2015-001

Best,

HI, 😎

I solved it by installing the java SE8 Oracle. I went to take it directly from the site: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.h tml

Applications are split.

All the adobe application and other.

I hope you will solved your problem😉

Your message is unclear.

Says to run SE 6, not SE 8.

Applications are split? What do you mean?

I mean with the various applications, all applications that you had already installed in your mac before the new system Yosemite.

I know that asks java SE 6, but the oracle site led me to install this version java SE 8 compatible with Yosemite. Now all my applications work properly and do not see the request to update the screen.

much easier is this apple link ....---> Java for OS X 2014-001

much easier --> Java for OS X 2014-001

So, by updating/upgrading to Yosemite, we must install a lesser version of JRE which is not as secure as Java SE 8.

BTW, I tried opening PS 5.1 but would not run on SE 8.

You would think these geniuses could get on the same page.

Very disappointed in Yosemite so far, slow as molasses, has issues with Time Machine, and more.

@Working Stiff - you think you've got it bad.... I talked my wife into getting a mac after having been on them since around '86. Problem is, she needs windows for a few things concerning real estate and our finances.. After a few yrs of upgrading Parallels, upgrading windows, and upgrading OS X's, she's about to throw in the towel! I'm tech-y, but wow, after this recent misaligned trifecta of Para 10, Win 8.1, and Yosemite, I'm in her corner! And I agree, why does Apple push and promote before the OS X is ready for PrimeTime

I feel your pain!

I'm disgusted with Apple right now. And I might as well throw in Adobe and Oracle (Java run time) while I'm at it.

I happened to stop by the Mac Store recently. They don't care about customer svc. anymore either; rude, non-communicative, approaching surly.

I have self censored my reply.

Hope things work out for your wife's work issues.

Thanks for your sympathy :-) And yes, it's as if the bloat has taken over and customer service and quality went out the window...

I would have thought that I would learn by now to wait at least six months before performing any APPLE software upgrades. There's always a problem that sets me back hours if not days of productivity just trying to cycle through the endless errors and incompatibility issues with a freakn upgrade. Gezz Apple. We pay a lot of money for your products and your service level continues to decline rapidly. Because of the type of business that I'm in I'm almost forced to work with only MAC. However, I am seeking alternatives to my media production dilemmas because APPLE, I'm losing money every time you pull this crap. We are not your BETA testers! We are hard working people trying to make a living with our investments. Get your act together APPLE. Seriously.

I have had the same problem with Adobe CS4 apps on Yosemite, but it is solved by following this YouTube demo:
