#JAVA RUNTIME ENVIRONMENT MAC YOSEMITE INSTALL#

This whole problem is compounded by the fact that this pop-up shows up at different times and situations I don't know for certain what app is causing it.

I could install the JDK version of Java 8 and the pop-up problem goes away. If I create something called sym-links (or correct those that already exist, not sure which), I could make the app searching for Java 6 RE see my installation of Java 8 RE. The app that is looking for Java 6 needs to be updated to look for and work with Java 8 nothing I can do here but wait for updates.Д¬. This doc is older than Yosemite's release so I'm hesitant about this.Д«. Don't install Java 8 install Java 6 from a link at an Apple support doc. It is doing that since I installed Yosemite. From there, I'm seeing different solutions:ДЄ. What is Java Runtime Environment I have a window popin up everyday and more than once each day, asking me to download it to see a web content, even if i have no browsers launched yet. Some are saying that some app on my machine is looking for Java 6, which is installed differently than Java 8, and not seeing J6 causes the pop-up.

I'm also getting conflicting or, at least for me, confusing information:ДЎ. I'm still getting the pop-up every once in a while.ДЄfter doing some google-fu, I'm seeing that this a common problem. I clicked on the 'More Info' button which took me to an Oracle site that states that Yosemite requires runtime version of Java 8u25 and that I shouldn't use Java 6 or Java 7.

After installing Yosemite, I get a pop-up every once in a while stating, 'to run this web content you need to install Java Runtime' or some such.
