Can't run Minecraft on the Apple Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10? This video can help you fix this problem. Apple provides a link to a website in Yosemite to install Java 6, that will allow Minecraft 1.8 to work.

*~*:._.:*~* Thanks for all the likes, comments and subscribes in 2014 - Have a Merry Christmas and Happy 2015! *~*:._.:*~*

The website link appears from the pop-up window with the text: "To open "Minecraft" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 Runtime. Click "More info..." to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website."

The Apple web site http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572 links to Java 6, specifically 1.6.0_65, a 64 bit version.

If the page does not open (seems to be blank in Safari), you can select shift+command+option while clicking the link, you can also do a cut and paste. Or go to http://support.apple.com and via the search (top right with magnifying glass) type in

"Java for OS X"

Then you can find the page with the title "Java for OS X 2014-00"

Otherwise try a different browser to get there.

A direct link to the file is

Another "possible" solution (but not in video) is to go to download the latest version of Java 8. This is explained in our follow-up video

About Minecraft

Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks. At first, people built structures to protect against nocturnal monsters, but as the game grew players worked together to create wonderful, imaginative things. It can also be about adventuring with friends or watching the sun rise over a blocky ocean. It’s pretty. Brave players battle terrible things in The Nether, which is more scary than pretty. You can also visit a land of mushrooms if it sounds more like your cup of tea. You can buy Minecraft for PC/Mac, Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition on the XBLA Marketplace, and Minecraft: Playstation 3 Edition on the Playstation Network. Minecraft: Pocket Edition is available for iOS andAndroid. Minecraft is coming out for Playstation 4, Playstation Vita, and Xbox One soon, but we don’t have release dates for those versions yet. So far 16,539,914 people bought the PC/Mac version of the game. Phew.
