On App startup - "Java is not installed on this computer"
Plot twist... it is!!!1
I was just trying to update from Java 1.6 to 1.8, and it seems Max MSP has lost its way to where Java is installed.
Anyone know how to point it in the right direction?
Mac OSX 10.12.3
Java 1.8.0_12
Cheers in advance,
Darius
If you wish to use Java 8 you need to check that you are using the 64 bit version of Max
There is no 32bit Java 8
Let us know....

Thanks Andrew - that was probably one of the problems.. seems like there's more!
I might have installed the JDK in the wrong place? In Terminal;
echo $JAVA_HOME
Returns:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home
Shouldn't this be in /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ ?
Update - just reinstalled JDK, doesn't throw up an error this time in Max, but the compiler returns:
Error: Unable to find java compiler /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javac
Ahh I see;
Had to update the "Compiler Command" with the new JDK compiler.
