'Java applets cache in most web browsers so that the applet will be quick to load when returning to a web page.' Again assumes download time is the limiting factor and not things like JVM startup time and time for the applet code itself to go through its initilisation sequences. This app evidently is responsible for launching a graphical Java applications (and picking the right versions/prohibiting users from running the old Java 6 stuff etc.). Poking around I haven't been able to figure out how Java Web Start.app finds other Java versions and why it is failing to see Java 7 update 25.

How do I install Java on my Mac to join Webex meetings?
Note: To use Webex on the current production versions, please upgrade to Mac OS 10.13 or later.
Solution:
Java Web Start.app For Mac Os
In order to join a Webex meeting, you must install and enable the Java plug-in.
New installation of Java:
Download the latest version from Free Java Download.
Open the downloaded disk image.
Open the installer within and follow the onscreen instructions.
Restart the computer.
Java is already installed:
Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences.
Choose View > Java to open the Java Control Panel app.
Click the Update tab.
Click Update Now button and follow the onscreen instructions.
Restart the computer.
Note:
PowerPC-based Macs are no longer supported by Webex.
I'm pretty sure my problem is about the same. Basically I cant install the Java 7 update cause I get an error message during download telling me I dont have mac os x 10.7 or higher....but I do. The Oracle Java update for Lion just isnt recognizing it! I have mac os x lion 10.7.5 on my laptop and for some reason, certain Pogo games wont load...it says its loading but never does and just closes. I went to the help page, did what it said, I scanned for current updates, installed them, rebooted then went back to Pogo and clicked on the java test link to see what version im running. I got the error 'missing plug in' so I clicked on it and was taken to Java's website for instructions, clicked 'Download Java for Mac OS X,' then hit sytem requirements and saw that I had to be running os x 10.7.3 or above and I have 10.7.5. I was good to go, hit download and now Im here! Annoyed and confused beause updates and upgrades are pretty basic and simple. You either meet the system requirements or you dont. I meet them but cant get them cause it says I dont....its a viscious cycle and Im rambling like a madwoman! Is there an easy yes or no answer to this, maybe a follow steps 1,2,3 A,B,C you can post for non computer savvy moms? LOL I just want the handful of Pogo games I used to be able to play, to play again...nothing complicated! And why is it only some games and not all of them? Dont answer that, my hair already hurts...haha
Im not much of a computer person, but Im sure thats more than obvious, so my apologies if my problem has nothing to do with this one....tell me where to go or what forum to read thru for help. I also want to pologize in advance for the help Im gonna need after I get this updated! lol I hear the update has something screwy with the plugins being enabled and that its another nightmare with this whole new oracle java deal. Hmmm, maybe I shouldnt even do this java update. 😕 ðŸ˜x81
