Workaround:
1. Uninstalling the JRE:
• Navigate to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins and remove the JavaAppletPlugin.plugin directory.
• Navigate to /Library/PreferencePanes and remove JavaControlPanel.prefpane.
2. Uninstalling the JDK:
Run the following command (you will need the Admin Password):
sudo rm -rf /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-1.8.jdk
3. Download and install the x64 Java 8 JDK from the Oracle site jdk-8u121-macosx-x64.dmg
Note: After accessing and reading the information on the download website, there may be some confusion about whether a subscription is required to install and use Java. This is not the case, a subscription is not required. Java JRE and Java JDK are available as free downloads from the Oracle site, but you must create an account in order to download.
Additional info: The reason to download the older version of the x64 Java is because you may encounter the error message "Incorrect installer architecture" when you try to install the latest version of the x64 Java.
When selecting Workshop > Job > File > Create New Layout on a mac computer, Pandora will Error with the message “Unable to get Job data from file. PDF file is not found".
This is caused by the illegal "\" character in the folder name "<computer name>_<domain\user>" that is inside the TransientLayouts folder.
Workaround: Change the number of characters of mac computer name(host name) and domain username to be greater than 31. Note: You may change either the computer name(host name) or domain username, as long at the combined characters for both "<computer name>_<domain\user>" is greater than 31.
In some cases, when installing Pandora 10 on Mac OS 10.x and later, the installer stops and reports that Java 1.8 is required.
