An error “you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime”, is encountered when you open any Adobe application.

1. Java For Os X
2. Java 6 For Macos 10.15
3. Java 6 For Macos High Sierra
4. Java For Mac Os X 10.6

With Mac OS 10.7 (Lion) and later, the Java runtime is no longer installed automatically as part of the OS installation. Follow any of the methods below to install Java runtime.

1. We will download and install java on MAC OS. If you wish to install java on Windows you may skip this tutorial and may refer our tutorial Install JDK on Windows and Set Environment Path on Windows. But make sure that it’s version is either 8 or 9 as JMeter4.0 does not support Java 10 and Java.
2. What's new in Java for Mac OS X 2017-001: This package is exclusively intended for support of legacy software and installs the same deprecated version of Java 6 included in the 2015-001, 2014-001, and 2013-005 releases.

Java For Os X

If Java runtime is not installed, you are prompted to install when you first launch any Adobe product. Follow the onscreen instructions in the Java required notification dialog box to install.

Use the following method to initiate the Java runtime installation or confirm if it is installed.

Go to Applications > Utilities > Java Preferences.
If Java is not installed, you receive the following message: “To open “Java Preferences,' you need a Java runtime. Would you like to install one now?”
Click Install and accept the license agreement. The Java runtime is downloaded and installed.

Many Adobe applications depend on the Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for some features to work. Apple recently changed the way it includes Java in Mac OS, and with Lion, Java is no longer preinstalled. It is now an optional install that you must select.

Since current Adobe installers and applications were built before these changes by Apple, Adobe software anticipates that Java is installed. Adobe and Apple have worked together to ensure that you can install Java at OS install time. Or it can be installed later before you install Adobe applications. At runtime, when you launch an Adobe application, you are prompted to install Java if it is not already installed. If you do not install Java before running an Adobe application, there can be missing or improperly behaving features. If you encounter any issues, install Java to correct the problems. Adobe recommends that corporate IT organizations pre install Java (or make sure that Java can be installed through their firewalls/security) to avoid conflicts with Adobe applications.

If the Java runtime is not installed, some issues that are known to occur include -

Java 6 For Macos 10.15

• Failure to launch.
• Install Java runtime prompts when you attempt to use the applications.
• Applications hang or quit.

Java 6 For Macos High Sierra

The following are the system requirements for installing the JDK and the JRE on macOS:

Java For Mac Os X 10.6

• Any Intel-based computer running macOS.

• Administrator privileges.

  You cannot install Java for a single user. Installing the JDK and JRE on macOS is performed on a systemwide basis for all users. Administrator privileges are required to install the JDK and JRE on macOS.

• When you install the JDK, it also installs the JRE. However, the system will not replace the current JRE with a lower version.

  To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.

• When you install the JRE, you can install only one JRE on your system at a time. The system will not install a JRE that has an earlier version than the current version.

  To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.

  Note:

  Installing a JRE from Oracle will not update java -version symlinks or add java to your path. To do this, you must install the JDK.
