Since installing El Capitan, I am not able to run Adobe Photoshop or Dreamweaver (old versions).
I get the message 'You need to install the legacy Java SE runtime'
I am trying to uninstall Java and reinstall the Java SE 6 runtime I downloaded from Apple, but even though I am sure all traces of Java are gone, I am still not able to install. Every time I try to install the runtime, I get a message that says: 'Java for OS X 2014-001 can't be installed on this disk. A newer version of this package is already installed.'
Download El Capitan From Apple; Java Se 6 Download Mac El Capitan Dmg; When the pop-up window appears on your screen (telling you to install the legacy Java 6 runtime), click on the More Info; Now, an Apple Support site will load up giving you further instructions how to get the Java 6 runtime. Here's how to fix the 'To use the 'java' command-line tool you need to install a JDK' pop up really annoying issue.Link: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572A.
I already removed /Library/Java and everything under it. I also checked /etc/paths and Java is removed.
Not sure whatever vestiges of Java remain, but I am still getting the message.
