Kindle Previewer for mac is not launching for me. I am using 10.8.2. System log does not have any useful detail--just says 'exit 1'. Wonder if it is a java problem.

I had Oracle JDK 7 on here also, though not the latest version (the updater ran a day or two ago but it must have been unsuccessful). After uninstalling it, Kindle Previewer runs.
Unfortunately when I install the latest JDK (1.7.0_15), Kindle Previewer again fails to launch. Apple's latest JVM is 1.6.0_41. KP's Info.plist defines the executable as 'JavaApplicationStub', not 'Kindle Previewer'. So that is what it is trying to run when Kindle Previewer.app is opened. If I launch 'Kindle Previewer' instead, I get this error: Code:
Error: This Java instance does not support a 32-bit JVM. Please install the desired version. But at least I know how to get it working if I need to. |
