Mac Support

!MovieJukebox is written in Java 6 so it's not specifically "supported" on any given hardware or OS. There are a number of !MovieJukebox users running the program on Windows PCs, Linux, and yes Macintosh.
Well... Remember how we said that this was written in Java 6? To date (June 2008) Apple has only released Java 6 for Intel 64bit machines running Leopard. So if that's you, then feel free to download Java 6 for Mac OS X 10.5
Yeah, did you see where Java 6 was only available for Intel 64bit Macs? Your options are to lobby Apple and/or Sun to release Java 6 for the Mac, buy a new Mac, or run Linux/Windows/other OS with Java 6 support.
Short answer, you don't. Long answer, see the options for a 32bit Intel Mac user.
Yeah, like your mom said, life's not fair.
Well, you run the application of course! How? You will find a script file named !MovieJukebox.sh in the folder where !MovieJukebox was installed. Editing and running this script is all you need to do.
Well, maybe not exactly a gotcha but you'll likely need to tweak the script. You need to use the full path to Java 6. This is normally /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Commands/ but could be installed somewhere else if you didn't use the default location.
