I have a long term customer of a brainstorming software product that has a Java base and has been
used professionally for over ten years as a Java console application. He just upgraded to
macOS Sierra 10.12.2 and he says he is getting an error message that says, "You can't open the application
because it is not supported by this type of Mac."
Here are the Details:
Mac:
macOS Sierra 10.12.2
MBP 13 inch, mid 2012
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro9,2
Processor Name: Intel Core i5

Total Number of Cores: 2
L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
L3 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Boot ROM Version: MBP91.00D3.B0E
SMC Version (system): 2.2f44

Hardware UUID: 01719CDD-F21E-5E61-899A-8411A62F4B59

Here is some additional information about this type of app:
You can run Java from Terminal with a command something like this
example command line:
java myjar.jar MyApp
In our case, you go to the "terminal" program and then type in (or paste in):
java -cp JParaMindAndDict.jar JParaMind
in the directory where you installed ParaMind.
If you know about scripts, here is a shell script. The script is executable in the console.
#!/bin/sh
cd /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD/Applications/ParaMind\ for\ Java\ 1.0/
java -cp JParaMindAndDict.jar JParaMind
I am looking for any kind of help that one can give. Many people like this brainstorming
program and it's been a labor of love keeping the product going for 25 years now.
Thanks,
Robert
