how to install legacy java se 6 runtime for mac 10.10

For El Capitan: Java for OS X 2015-001

Usually the program requesting the legacy Java will have a download link for you, but here it is anyways.

Java for OS X 2015-001

That is not correct. Since OS 10.10 Yosemite, you must now download and install it yourself from that link.

Thanks a lot!

This helped me a lot here in Finland!

Unfortunately I installed Java SE 6 and reinstalled the newer and I thought it would help me but when I reopened the app it gave me an error message and I don't have the programs to reinstall. I am quit bummed.

Please uninstall and reinstall the product.

If this problem still occurs, please contact Adobe technical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.

Error: 6
