Java Software Mac OS X

Ive used this application for various reasons, including determining the location of something on screen, determining the width or height between two points, or getting the RGB value of a pixel on screen.

You can get another XY coordinate by following the same process, quit the app, minimize it, hide it, whatever.

This is because the program is written in Java, and I dont know any other way to track the cursor location from Java.

Once you understand that youre looking at an image, the app is easy to use.

Or, since you can get the source code here, you can get this working on Linux or Windows, and then send me the improved version.:).

This is crap. Java on OS X is totally flawed.

What the hell is this for (0) Show comment ( 1 ) Derekcurrie 27 July 2015 Version: 2015-001 A quick and simple way to DISABLE running JAVA over the Internet (if you have Admin privileges): 1) Go to LibraryInternet Plug-Ins 2) Remove from this directory everything listed as Java.

Yes, that includes Apples own alias file JavaAppletPlugin.plugin.

I advise that you store these files somewhere, just in case you want to use them later for some odd purpose.

I have them in a folder labeled Internet Plug-ins (disabled) inside the Library folder.

QUIT and restart all your web browsers.

Java now cannot run in them over the Internet, which is where Java is particularly dangerous.

But for the sake of simplicity and the ability to reinstate the Java Plug-In whenever you may want to actually use it on the Internet, Id leave everything else in place.

NOTE: Running Java applications off the Internet is not typically a problem.

Just be sure you run Java apps, off the Internet, from reliable developers.

So avoid running mysterious Java apps you know nothing about.

Check up on their reputation and verify they are NOT Trojans.

Oracle specifically BROKE the Java sandbox, allowing Java to interact directly with computer systems.

This was the stupidest thing Oracle could do with Java.

Show comments ( 5 ) Kihoalu 27 July 2015 Version: 2015-001 There is way too much lame software still running Java online.

Ive seen job employment service companies (re-trainers) who still rely on it Should not leave any good feelings about how they (retrainers) handle other sensitive data, if they cant get this right An under-explained update.

If there was a version later than 6 installed - what GETS installed with this Apple installer Does it REALLY overwrite newer versions of Java Does it remove any System Pref Panes, or does it roll the references back to Apple Java 6 What it comes down to, is that most people know very little about what their computers are doing.

If the Preference Pane feedback is faulty, the user can be persuaded that something did, or did not get updated (0) 3 HelenaG8531 11 June 2014 Version: 2014-001 What about iPhone and iPad iOS Are there Java plug-ins there needing to be disabled.

Meanwhile, thanks Rick for your earlier answer Wish I could reply to your reply to say it there (0) Show comment ( 1 ) HelenaG8531 11 June 2014 Version: 2014-001 I hope you guys can clear this up for me and those Ive guided to follow todays NPR news advice to disable Java in all browsers.

I did and then found that browsing now isnt working well for most of my visited sites, including FaceBook which plastered a banner across the top explaining that it depending on Java script.

So the below comment also confuses me: Therefore, I and many others (including Derekcurrie at the top of this thread) strongly recommend removing Java if you dont need it.

And most people dont need it.

What are we supposed to do: disable Java in our browsers or not Thank you so much for clarifying this (0) Show comment ( 1 ) Derekcurrie 09 June 2014 Version: 2014-001 This Java update from Apple is a bit of a mystery.

This installer works the same as the Java 2013-005 Installer.

As far as I or other researchers can determine, Apple never pushed out this version of their Java update to anyone on any version of OS X.

To this day, there is still NO security document for this update.

Apple never emailed out a security announcement about it either.

I suspect this is just another example of blundering by Apples documentation team, which has now become an expectation, theyre that poorly organized.
