Mac OS X + Safari + JRE 7 + TiddlyWiki --> Seems To Be Working Well So Far

[Chris]

For those who worry about Mac OS X and Safari and TiddlyWiki together:

I just installed JRE 7 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1637588.html) and so far it seems to be a big improvement over JRE 6. The big change is that JRE7 saves the Unamesa certificate for local TiddlyWiki files (JRE 6 did not). What this means is that you only get asked about running TiddlySaver.jar one time (instead of 3 for JRE 6). No need to answer the dreaded question again next time you open the TIddlyWiki.

Per a previous topic here - you still need to activate the Develop menu in Safari and then "Disable Local File Restrictions"

Overall, a huge improvement over the situation with JRE 6.

Don't remember how I did the former, but it seems I have. Haven't been able to find out how you do the latter.

Also, how do I tell if I already have JRE 7 installed?

I wonder if this is related to the difficulty I've been having getting TW to save since moving to Mountain Lion and Java 7.

How do I activate the Develop menu? Likewise "disable local file restrictions"?

Thanks,

Yes, seems so - sorry I missed it.

 

How do I activate the Develop menu? Likewise "disable local file restrictions"?

There's an option on Safari's Advanced preferences page to turn on the Develop menu. The "disable local file restrictions" option is then available on the Develop menu.

 

Best wishes

Thanks, Jeremy. The saga continues.

I enabled the Develop menu and checked "disable local file restrictions." Now I get a warning that the app may contain components that are a security risk and am asked if I want to block. When I click "don't block" I immediately get the JavaScript warning "unable to save changes."

A little counterintuitive. I take it clicking "block" would not work either. [I'm reluctant to try it for fear that unblocking my be impossible or difficult.]
