Java Se 6 Runtime Download Mac 10.10

Apple updated Java for OS X Snow Leopard, Lion, and Mountain Lion on Tuesday. The releases adds compatibility for Java SE 6 version 1.6.0_65.

The patch notes are unspecific, saying:

This release updates the Apple-provided system Java SE 6 to version 1.6.0_65 and is for OS X versions 10.7 or later.

This update uninstalls the Apple-provided Java applet plug-in from all web browsers. To use applets on a web page, click on the region labeled 'Missing plug-in' to go download the latest version of the Java applet plug-in from Oracle.

The updates come in two flavors:

  • Java for OS X 2013-005 - (for Lion and Mountain Lion)
  • Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 17 (that link, direct from Apple's Downloads site, currently resolves to Update 16)

On my Mountain Lion machine, Java for OS X 2013-005 is showing up in the MAS as a 66.7MB download.
