how to install legacy java se 6 runtime for mac 10.10

Thanks pal, this sorted it out for me too, and can now run an app that was asking for Java 6 Legacy whatever... Thanks!

Thanks for the Java link, my friend....

.... From a 69 yr old MAC deadhead.

That link does not work.

Copy and paste the link into a browser other than Safari. For some reason, Safari seems to have issues accessing Apple's own web site.

Lanny: Try this direct link - it just worked for me.

I don't have an issue with it. The advice was for Michael Sanford 1.

For security reasons, providing links that lead directly to downloads, should be avoided.

Understood. In this case, functionality trumps security for me.

Thanks so much, Mahboi!

My 8 year old was about ready to lose his marbles without his Minecrack! You rock!

Thanks Mahboi! Indeed, the "official" link does not work - yours does - maybe you could work for Apple? Sorry, my bad, you're too good for that! ;-)

thank you sooo much! i owe you one 😉

Bingo!

Tried SE8 but this download resolved CS5 not opening in yosemite.

thanks

Thanks Mahboi and Bravo! Young man.

I was freaking out when I saw I couldn't open Adobe Illustrator or PhotoShop. I use both to create patent drawings for my products.

You saved the day with your download. Both are working now.

I love how a 16 year old kid helps more MAC users in need than the richest company in the world.

I know a person who used to work at the Apple Store, he said after Jobs was gone they removed all their in-store training areas for employees and added more retail space instead.

Jobs always said it wasn't about the $$ but creating a great experience for people.

Mahboi, you are the mutts nuts. Thanks so much for solving my problem!

Go to this link and download the file

Java for OS X 2014-001

herbyh,

Your explanation of how to find the DL1572 helped me greatly. My SPSS still wouldn't open, and the apple link didn't work. But I followed your directions, downloaded it, and BAM - fixed.

Many thanks!
