I tried the jdk 1.6.0 way but it still wouldn't work on Latikai client for me. The client would start to load but then just disappear and nothing happens.
However it did make Enders client work so still happy.
It wasn't very clear where to get the necessary files as they are not on Javas website but on Apples and are not named exactly as they should so had to do quite a bit of searching.
So for those still trying to wrap their head around the instructions follow following easy steps to try and solve the issue:
1) Download Java legacy jdk 1.6.0 at
https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?loc ... cale=en_US2) Delete/rename the other jdk versions (all you have except 1.6.0) in /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
3) Download Ender client (or Latikai) depending on what works for your system

5) Report if this helped (which version works)
Good luck
