Your trick did not work for me. I bought a new MBA this week and transferred my files using Migration, as soon as I booted up, I got the same dialogue box. I upgraded to Java 8 and then your trick. The problem is that i don't have any applications that require Java runtime except for browsers. The only way I can get rid of the box is to start up in Safe Mode. I've had a lot of problems with 1010. In fact, it really suc... When I received my new MBA, it still had Mavericks on it! I had to spend an hour upgrading the System before I could transfer files!

I should of learned, Also, that too never, I mean NEVER, upgrade OS until all the bugs have been worked out Now I have to spend an hour on the phone with the geniuses at apple to solve this issue.

Sorry about that. As a 16-year old currently mired in schoolwork, with no ill intentions, I can *assure* you that there is no "bad ****" in the link!


If you really want to know, here's how I did it:


1. Went to Wayback Machine


2. Looked up the now-dead link to the Apple Support page


3. Chose one of the older snapshots from this year, I forgot which one


4. Clicked the download button, it didn't work.


5. Copied the address shown by WayBack Machine in the middle of the screen, pasted into Safari


6. The file downloaded.
