Hello,

I am trying to install FIJI on my Mac OS X Yosemite (version 10.10.2) to no avail. Everytime I try to run it, it tells me 'To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment'.

I have Java 8 Update 45 installed, and have verified the installation as well as restarted my computer a few times, but it still pops up with this error message and won't progress beyond that.

I have tried a few Java 8 /Mac OS X Yosemite related fixes from this forum but nothing seems to work. Any help on how I can resolve this is greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Athene
