Before you start

1. If you do not already have the installation disc or file, download the latest Mac OS X installer file at portal answer 70571. 
2. If the download is a compressed (ZIP) file, extract the installation file and place it on the workstation.

Attention: Java SE 6 Runtime may need to be manually installed or re-installed

Problem: On new computers or computers that were upgraded from an earlier OS X to Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks or later, Java SE 6 Runtime must be installed or re-installed before you install, upgrade, or resume using TIFF Assembler Plus.
Cause: The Apple Mac OS X upgrade process removes any existing Java.
Workaround: To manually download and install the Java SE 6 Runtime, go to http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572.
