There are different versions of Java. By default, your OS wants to use the latest version. But different versions of Java can live happily alongside each other -- so you don't have to downgrade to use an older version -- you have have and use multiple versions.
to see which version you are using (assuming you know where you installed it)
$ /path/to/my/copy/java -version
KGS doesn't like java version 7. Use version 6 or older.
xed_over, you are well above me here. I need Mac KGS for non-techies.
So, how do I find old versions of java? Assuming there are multiple versions, which one should I used? And how do I make KGS use the older version? And how do I make sure that only KGS uses it, assuming there are safety issues?
How do I find where my current version is installed? I used the default and spotlight isn't helping. It doesn't seem to be in applications or utilities folders. Anyway, I am confident it is 7, because there are no clicks. So does it matter?
And if you don't have the inclination to answer these, that is completely understandable. Thanks anyway.
