[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1638554, member: 204485"] I upgraded my wife's computer to Yosemite two days ago and apart from an odd hiccup with Mail everything is fine, however. On initial restart a dialogue box popped up stating that Java Run Time was required for some internet content. This did not happen with my identical MBP after upgrade. The box included a link to the developers' site so my wife downloaded the installer and ran it. Made no difference. Box still popped up on startup and periodically during use. A little reading on my part found there was another Mac version called Oracle Java. So I downloaded the zip ran the installer and now no more popup dialogue. So I am curious why I didn't get the same notification and why there are two seemingly appropriate types of Java for the Apple OS. [/QUOTE]
