Q: I get the message "To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment" Do I need two versions as this article suggests?
I just upgraded to Yosemite on my 2010 MacBook Pro. When I reboot I get the message "To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment" and I've also seen the same pop-up once while running OpenOffice. And now while composing this post.
Yes - I followed the link and installed the Oracle version of Java, version 8, and the test page confirms that I have the current version running.
I read some threads on discussions.apple.com but didn't like the answers.
I found this: http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac-software/advanced-tips-for-mac-os-x-yosemit e-3582877/
and tip # 10 seems to answer my question.
Anyone else have experience on this?
OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)
