How to Download and Install Java SE 6 Runtime for Mac OS X

If you are using an older version of Mac OS X, such as 10.6 Snow Leopard or 10.7 Lion, you may encounter a message that says "To open this application, you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime". This is because some applications, such as Adobe CS5, require Java 6 to run on Mac OS X. However, Java 6 is no longer supported by Oracle or Apple, and you may not be able to find it easily on their websites. In this article, we will show you how to download and install Java SE 6 Runtime for Mac OS X safely and easily.

What is Java SE 6 Runtime?

Java SE 6 Runtime is a software package that provides the Java virtual machine, libraries, and components that enable you to run applications written in the Java programming language on your Mac. Java SE stands for Java Standard Edition, and 6 is the version number. Java SE 6 was released in 2006 and was the default version of Java for Mac OS X until 2012, when Apple stopped providing updates for it. Oracle, the developer of Java, also discontinued public updates for Java SE 6 in 2013.

Why do you need Java SE 6 Runtime?

Some applications that were developed using Java SE 6 may not be compatible with newer versions of Java, such as Java SE 7 or 8. These applications may not run properly or at all on your Mac without Java SE 6 Runtime installed. For example, Adobe CS5 products, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, require Java SE 6 Runtime to launch on Mac OS X. If you try to open these applications without Java SE 6 Runtime, you will see a message that prompts you to install it.
