It hasn't recognized Adobe when I was on the adobe website and testing to see if it was installed, which I had installed it a few days prior. So not only did it not recognize it during the test, my siri isn't working on my macbook. I am also unable to bring up any prompts. (For the record) Apple's Java Update 10 for Mac OS X 10.5 caused Java to no longer be detected in Firefox 4.0 and above and in other non-Apple browsers that use Java Plugin2 (this did not affect Safari or Firefox 3.6). Mozilla fixed the problem in the latest Firefox 5.0.1 update.

Q: I am running Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) or later and Gatekeeper is blocking an app from launching. What is going on?
A: Gatekeeper, introduced in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8), is designed to prevent potentially malicious apps from launching. When you attempt to launch an app that doesn't meet certain criteria, Gatekeeper will block the launch. To override this, you can modify Gatekeeper's default settings, or explicitly right/control-click the application and choose Open.
To create a Java application that will launch without interruption under the default Gatekeeper settings, the app must be bundled with a JRE, use Oracle's launcher stub, and be signed with an Apple Developer ID. For more information on creating an app that satisfies these requirements, see Packaging a Java App for Distribution on a Mac.
Q: What happened to the Java Preferences app in Application -> Utilities?
A: The Java Preferences app was part of Apple Java installation and is not used by Oracle Java. Therefore, OS X releases from Apple that do not include Apple Java will not include Java Preferences.
One of the functions of Java Preferences was to set the current version of the JRE. Under Oracle Java, only a single version of the JRE can be installed at a time. For more information, see JRE 7 Installation for Mac OS X.
