Hello again. I downloaded a fresh copy of JD without uninstalling the old one. I updated it, and it works perfectly! No problems at all. Very strange indeed. I have not uninstalled the old one yet.

Jiaz, I'll email you my defective JDownloader.app (the nightly version).

2nd installation works only as long until a new download job is proceeding.

just as a download job is in the queue and active, the freezing is the same.

so the issue must be connected with the download activity.

the mouse pointer is changing to a blue circle sign as showing "I am busy with a job"

Default Same problem - after latest Mac Java update

Getting same issues as above - blue spinning ball, downloads work but jDownloader screens completely frozen, unable to move between screens, highlight downloads, etc.. Basically lost control of operation.

Whats the best solution - wait for a fix? download a new version?

Thanks for your help guys!!

Until the cause has been found and the problem has been repaired, you could revert your JRE to a previous version.

Default Re-installed JD - no change, screen freeze, spining blue-ball

Hi Jiaz

Thanks for your comments. But having re-installed JD (didn't delete older version though) I am still getting all the same problems (screen freeze, blue-ball, but can use the screen Menu only).

I am using a 2009 MBP, with OSX 10.8 and latest Java update from Thursday. Have used JD for 2-3 years with no trouble for past 2 years ...

Is is possible or worth the hassle to revert to the older Java version on Mac?

Thanks

I'm getting the same problem since the Java update. I don't know how to roll back the Java update nor clean up the config folder but have tried re-installing JD, with no success. This is very frustrating and any clear advice on addressing the issue would be appreciated.

Actually...I seem to have found a solution by accident. Go to Utilities>Java Preferences.app>General and make sure the 32 Bit Java is the first choice. The default in mine was 64 Bit and now that I have swapped the order, JD appears to be working normally.

Do not working for me.
I swapped both and JD is still freezing. Even I rebooted with any luck.
Please, try to think in other step you have already done.

EDIT: You can swich to Nightly until the issue is solve, this version is working OK.

ok, I am a Mac (lion) user.

the post posted by remi says:
"cd /Applications/jDownloader.app/Contents/Resources/Java
sudo java -jar jdupdate.jar -branch NIGHTLY "

but in my installation the file jdupdate.jar is in the following path:
/Applications/JDownloader.app/Contents/Resources/app/jd

anyway when from terminal (in the dir /Applications/JDownloader.app/Contents/Resources/app/jd where the file jdupdate.jar is) i do the following command:
sudo java -jar jdupdate.jar -branch NIGHTLY, I receive this error:"Unable to access jarfile jdupdate.jar".

Any hint?

tks

replace "cd /Applications/jDownloader.app/Contents/Resources/Java"

by "cd /Applications/JDownloader.app/Contents/Resources/app/jd"

and try the second command again.

I'm sorry but I don't know where these files are on a Mac. Try to find the file jdupdate.jar and change the path accordingly.
