Hello!

I am running OS X 10.6.8 with the latest java plugins downloaded via software updates from Apple.

I am using Mozilla Firefox version 28.0.

I wanted to use a website (www.vectis.co.uk) to view a live bidding auction, but everytime I try to connect, it says that my 'java applet plugin has crashed'. I have checked what version of java I have, it is 1.6.0_65 which I believe is the latest version. The minimum requirement according to Vectis is version 1.6.0_35.

I am using Firefox because Vectis states they do not support Safari. My version of Firefox is the latest. When I check the plugins via 'Firefox Tools -> Add-ons -> Check to see if your plugins are up to date' , it says that Java plugin is 'vulnerable' and I should obtain the latest version by going to Apple 'software updates' to ensure I have the latest version of java. Why does Firefox not recognise the latest version of Java plugin from Apple? I believe that for OS X 10.6, Apple provides Java plugin updates and there is no need to dowload anything further, so I am unable to install any other Java applet plug-in because they are supplied by Apple.

Why does the java applet not work??

This is killing me, please help!!

Thank you

Leila

  2. Download jre-8-macosx-x64.dmg from the following page.
