Re: [disklavier] Re: Snow Leopard and Virtual PRC

2009-09-22 by George F. Litterst

Good afternoon, everyone.

On my Macintosh which is running Snow Leopard, I have the following  
items:

Jar Launcher
Java Web Start

in this location:

/System/Library/CoreServices

If you don't have the same, I suspect that you don't have a complete  
Java installation on your computer. According to www.java.com, the  
latest Java is installed by selecting Software Update... from the  
Apple menu on your computer.
