[HOT] Installing JOSM on Mac OS
I did a post here talking about an idiot guide to JOSM and then got asked about Mac OS and installing it. Any suggestions other than the JOSM web site and the Mac OS links? I run Win 7 and have no experience with Mac OS. Thanks John ___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot

I provide links to josm.openstreetmap.de. So far the only problem I recall, is problems installing on Windows 7-8. What kind of problems are you having with JOSM on Mac? I have JOSM running on both Mac OSX and Linux.

Re: [HOT] Installing JOSM on Mac OS
The user thinks he has an older version of Mac OS and wondered if it would even take JAVA 7. I'm sure it will get sorted out in time.

Re: [HOT] Installing JOSM on Mac OS
See this wiki page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Mac Sadly apple and oracle seem to be conspiring to make running java software on mac quite difficult. Java version 6 may be easier for some mac users, in which case the link to the older version 7000 of JOSM will work.

Re: [HOT] Installing JOSM on Mac OS
I emailed the user with instructions to upgrade Java on OS X Leopard. Basically a special app is needed to install Java on older systems. Pacifist, www.charlessoft.com, has an app to install the jdk7.x.dmg file downloaded from Oracle. If he has problems, I work with him to get it working.
