Install the Java SE 6 Runtime. Jump to answer. Performance Views. Install Java Legacy SE6 Runtime File On Mac OS El Capitan to open CS4 apps. Java SE 6 Downloads. Go to the Oracle Java Archive page. Thank you for downloading this release of the Java TM Platform, Standard Edition Development Kit (JDK TM).The JDK is a development environment for building applications, applets, and components using the Java programming language. Java for macOS 2017-001 installs the legacy Java 6 runtime for macOS 10.13 High Sierra, macOS 10.12 Sierra, macOS 10.11 El Capitan, macOS 10.10 Yosemite, macOS 10.9 Mavericks, macOS 10.8 Mountain Lion, and macOS 10.7 Lion.
Java SE 6/SE 7 Runtime is installed on the computer.
Note:
In Dreamweaver 2014, the prompt does not appear when you launch Dreamweaver. However, you are prompted to install Java SE 6 runtime while logging in to PhoneGap Build service (Site > PhoneGap Build Service > PhoneGap Build Service).
In the pop-up window that appears, click Install and follow the onscreen instructions to install Java SE 6 Runtime.
Note:
In Dreamweaver 2014, you can't log in to PhoneGap Build service without installing Java SE 6 Runtime.
Important: Ensure that you install Java SE 6 Runtime only by clicking Install in the pop-up window. If you install Java SE 6 or 7 Runtime through any other means (for example, by directly accessing Java.com), Dreamweaver could still display the prompt.
Even if you have installed Java SE 7 Runtime, you still need to install Java SE 6 Runtime as described above.
If you continue to see the prompt even after installing Java SE 6 Runtime as described above, perform the following steps:
Dreamweaver displays such a prompt because, when you update to Mac OS 10.9, Java SE 6 Runtime on your computer gets uninstalled.
I've just installed Mac OSX 10.8 Mountain LionI'm trying to install a JDK version 6There's no Mac package for version 6 on the Oracle downloads:http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk6u37-downloads-1859587.html
But there is one for JDK version 7http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7u9-downloads-1859576.html
Is there somewhere else I can get a Mac package for JDK 6?
As I recall, the first time you do something that needs Java the OS will ask if you want to install it, and version 6 is what you get. According to this page, typing java -version
in the Terminal is enough to trigger the prompt.
For the JDK (and not the runtime), you'll need to log into developer.apple.com, search for java
, and download the Java for OS X 2012-006 Developer Package. I just did this on my MacBook and now have javac 1.6.0_37
