Some features in many Adobe applications require the Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE). In Mac OS 10.7, Java is no longer preinstalled but is an optional installation item.

10.7.5 free download - Apple Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 Supplemental Update, Realtek High Definition Audio Codec (Windows 7 / 8/ 8.1/ 10 64-bit), Adobe Flash Player, and many more programs. Adobe Flash Player - A lightweight, robust runtime environment for rich media and rich Internet applications.

Current Adobe installers and applications were built before these changes to Mac OS and anticipate that Java is installed. Adobe and Apple worked together to ensure that you can install Java with Mac OS 10.7, or at a later time before you install Adobe applications. (When you start an Adobe application, you are prompted to install Java if it isn't already installed.) In a corporate IT environment, be sure to preinstall Java, or make sure that it can be installed through firewalls or other security software.

If the Java Runtime isn't installed, the following issues can occur in Adobe applications:
