Hello Again.

Thanks for your reply, I've been desperately trying to find Java SE 6 download link on apple support pages without much success... ah well, it's better one knowing than 100 searching -)

Downloading now, I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks again.

On the Macbook Pro, I have OS X Mountain Lion (18.8.2). When I launch the app, it says it needs Java SE 6 and prompts ...
