4,063 PointsI cannot install!
I am unable to install the latest version of JDK.
Process of me trying to download:
- Go the the Oracle JDK Website
- Accept the License Agreement
- Go to the Mac OS X (Im running Mac OS X, not coping what Craig is doing, BTW)
- Click the download link
- Wait......
PROBLEM:
- Takes me to a website, where to download the JDK, I have to install Minecraft! (No, I am joking,). I have to create an Oracle account! Which in my position, I cannot! (Take a moment, and think why).
Please help!
