Latest Java Update For Mac El Capitan

How do I update Java for my Mac?

Oct 17, 2015  You can install legacy versions of Java in OS X El Capitan by using the Java for OS X 2015-001 installer, which includes Java 6. To be clear, Java 6 is a version from 2013, it is outdated and no longer supported by Oracle, it has various known security holes, and is therefore inappropriate for most Mac users to install without a compelling reason. So, unless you have a need for Java 6 specifically. Apple has posted notice that Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) will be the last OS X release that supports Java 6, and as such, recommends developers whose applications depend on Java 6 to migrate their apps to a newer Java version provided by Oracle. » More info (apple.com) Can I use Chrome with Oracle Java on my Mac?
