Recently released OS X update: Java for OS X 2013-004 (OS X 10.7x, 10.8.x) or Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 16 (OS X 10.6.x) completely breaks myPhoneDesktop (as wel as many other GUI apps like Mathlab). 

Since then Apple re-issued that update with a fix so you must re-apply it to restore myPhoneDesktop functioning:

  • Java for OS X 2013-004 (OS X 10.7x, 10.8.x) - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572
  • Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 16 (OS X 10.6.x) - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1573

We re-issued the same release with a fix. If you have the previous version, you'll have to get the manual installer above. Your Java version should end with *M4509 afterwards.

@mike: thank you for quickly fixing that issue! Everything seems work now!

Would it be possible to make it "true" update visible for all the affected users?
