. See my below before continuing!. With the release of Mac OS X Yosemite, Minecraft stopped working for anyone who has updated (or any new Yosemite users, such as a new computer purchase). Mojang is of little help so far and seems unconcerned. ( Read my update below, as Mojang finally seems to be working on a fix!) The ‘fix’ options so far are to 1) Install an old, specially modified version of Java 6 released by Apple, or 2) install the latest Java version 8 from Oracle and implement a workaround. Fortunately, the latter (a MUCH better option, IMO) is not that difficult. ( The article is long due to detail the steps are relatively easy!).
Overview. Step 1 – Remove old Java.
Step 2 – Install Java. Step 3 – Configure Java. Step 4 – Download Minecraft. Step 5 – Play Minecraft!. Step 6 (optional) – Make it pretty!. Step 7 (optional) – Play with a console controller?.
Estimated time: 10-15 minutes. Do the same under the ‘home’ (Hard Drive/Users/username/) Library folder, which Apple has hidden, making it a bit more tricky to access. When you are at Finder (ie: click on your Desktop to make it the ‘active’ app), drop-down the ‘Go’ menu and notice a ‘Library’ folder appears if you hold the ‘option’ key down (and disappears if you release it). Select that Library folder and it should open. Same as above, check your Internet Plug-ins folder (for Java-related items) and look for a Java folder. /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ (look for Java related items) /Library/ (look for Java).
