Small tutorial from community member that shows how to keep old Java 1.6
1. Uninstall Apple Java (Note: You will need the admin password)
In terminal, run:
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk
sudo rm -rf /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0*.jdk
This will remove the Apple Java installation files.
2. Reinstall JDownloader 2
JDownloader will automatically download and install a compatible version of Java for your system.
(Note: The Uninstaller will not work, and throw an error after Java uninstallation)
3. Run JDownloader 2
4. Reinstall Apple Java 1.6
You can safely reinstall Apple Java after installing and running JDownloader.
