But if you are already using Java 7 but want to get back to Java 6 (pre-installed with Mac Os) you can follow this guide to restore Java 6. Oracles Java version 7u25 and below have been disabled by Apple on OS X. So if you are heavily using Chrome with java plugin, it is not recommended to update to Java 7.

So i downloaded JDK7 and installed it, it really fixed the problem. For Mac OS X 10.6 and below, use the Software Update feature (available on the Apple menu) to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java 6 for your Mac. There was a discussion on Apple support site, the solution was to update Java/JDK to JDK 7.

mac os x 10.7.5Īfter doing some searching on Google, i managed to find the solution.

Normally, new update should bring new improvements over performance, bug fixing and new features but this time my Mac became slow and sometimes it freezed while i was using Safari, Chrome or Finder.

I was happy when the download completed, so i installed the update and rebooted the Mac. The new update (combo ~2GB) took hours of download in my slow connection. I recently updated my early 2011 MacBook Pro to Mac OS X 10.7.5.
