How to install Eclipse on Mac OS X
By Chaitanya Singh | Filed Under: Java Tutorials
In this tutorial, we will learn how to install eclipse IDE on Mac OS X. Eclipse IDE (Integrated development environment) is written in Java and mostly used for developing Java applications. In Eclipse IDE, you can write, compile and run your Java code.
Download and install Eclipse
1) To download Eclipse IDE, copy the link http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ into you browser and hit enter.
2) Out of all the listed options, we need to install “Eclipse IDE for java developers”. Click the 64 bit download link as shown in the image below. 
3) Upon clicking the 64 bit option, you would be redirected to a download page where you can choose the server nearest to you so that you can download faster. Simply click download button at the left panel as shown below. Your download will start automatically. 
4) Once the download is done. Go to the download folder, you would find a file named “eclipse-java-mars-2-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar” (the file name may be different based on the version you download but it should be a tar file starting with word eclipse).
5) Drag the zipped file to the desktop and double click to open it. The file would be unzipped with default archive utility and you would find a eclipse icon on desktop. Open finder, select applications and then drag the eclipse icon from desktop the the application folder in finder.
6) Installation is done, you can now launch the eclipse by clicking the icon in applications. Alternatively, you can drag the icon from applications to the dock so that you can launch it directly from the desktop.
7) The first time you launch the application, you would get the following warning, just click “open”. 
8) The next pop up would have a message “To open eclipse you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime”. The pop up would look like this. Click ok. 
9) Go to the link http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html the page would look like the below screenshot. Accept License Agreement and download the file mapped to Mac OS X x64. In my case it is “jdk-7u79-macosx-x64.dmg”, you may find it different based on the java version you are trying to install. 
10) Once the download is complete, run the file and follow the installation instruction.
11) Once installation is done, open the Eclipse, it should run fine now. The welcome window would look similar to the one shown below. Click Workbench at the top right corner. 
Eclipse Installation on macOS
I have formatted my Mac due to some storage issues. Before this, I used Eclipse in a proper way. Now i have installed the JDK 
Then, i have installed Java 
Until now everything seems to be correct but when I open the Eclipse installer. 
What can I do to fix this? I need to work with this the soon as possible.

Eclipse on macOS will not start with Java 14 installed, this is being tracked in Eclipse bug 561273.
Installing Java 8 as well does not help. You need to remove the Java 14 install. You could use the Java 13.0.2 release instead.
Eclipse have determined that the root cause of this issue is a change in Java 14 which is described in this bug report JDK-8238225. The fix for this should be in Java 14.0.1
Update: Eclipse runs fine with Oracle Java 14.0.1 so the issue has been fixed.
I had the same issue myself a while back. In your Eclipsepedia it provided an example of what the eclipse.ini file looks like when your trying to specify a JVM. So just change the eclipse.ini file and then make sure that you have all of the correct documents in that path to match the example.
I also asked this question which was closed, that’s why I answer what I have found out: Eclipse will not install on Mac OS Catalina 10.15.4, saying the above error message
Failed to create the Java Virtual Machine.
Deinstalling jdk and install an older one wouldn’t help on its own because Eclipse is refusing to install in the first place (as mentioned above). What I have done:
- i´ve installed an JDK with boost (you can try several, mine worked with Version 13)
- I edited the installer:
-
- Download the dmg file
-
- convert the dmg-file with «hdiutil convert /dev/disk3s1 -format UDRW -o devimage»
-
- mount the converted dmg-file with: «hdiutil attach -owners on devimage.dmg -shadow»
-
- Edit the /Volumes/Eclipse/Eclipse.app/Contents/Info.plist: there is a section which is commented and there you can try the jdk version. You have to give the full path to the java executable, for example:
- Then my eclipse started from the (already) mounted Eclipse image without complaining

Подскажите как установить eclipse на mac 64
проблема может быть либо в том что поставили джаву горбато куда-то не туда
либо не та джава на которую конкретно этот эклипс рассчитан.
воообще говоря, последние версии эклипса (если верить конфигурационному файлу) рассчитывают найти как минимум джаву 1.6
неужели у тебя старее этого? не думаю
так что остаётся вариант с криво (нестандартно) установленной джавой
Оля,
делай скрин диалогового окна как тебе сказали
Cmd-Shift-4 и обведи область для копирования
Cmd-Shift-4 слабО нажать? Чтоб область экрана сфоткать в файл на десктоп. Кстати, если потом пробел еще, то окошко сфоткает, но окошки редко кто щелкает.
Там что-то про Яву написано, но я не вижу. И это предупреждение, не факт, что ошибка. Эклипс хочет явовскую JVM, яблоко яву перестало в стандартную поставку OS X включать, но ошибку с Вашего скрина все равно не вижу
PS. Ладно, я в офф и надолго. Ява 32-битная только была недавно для Мака. Если какое приложение на битность Явы ругается, то этому приложению можно в файндеровском Get Info диалоге поставить галку «работать в 32 битах» (не всегда, но часто, оно должно быть для этого universal binary с двумя интел-архитектурами, таких прог большинство)
5 Steps to Install Eclipse
We’ve recently introduced the Eclipse Installer, a new and more efficient way to install Eclipse. It is a proper installer (no zip files), with a self-extracting download that leads you through the installation process. For those who prefer not to use the Installer, the packages and zip files are still available on our package download page.
1. Download the Eclipse Installer
Eclipse is hosted on many mirrors around the world. Please select the one closest to you and start to download the Installer
2. Start the Eclipse Installer executable
For Windows users, after the Eclipse Installer executable has finished downloading it should be available in your download directory. Start the Eclipse Installer executable. You may get a security warning to run this file. If the Eclipse Foundation is the Publisher, you are good to select Run.
For Mac and Linux users, you will still need to unzip the download to create the Installer. Start the Installer once it is available.
3. Select the package to install
The new Eclipse Installer shows the packages available to Eclipse users. You can search for the package you want to install or scroll through the list.
Select and click on the package you want to install.
4. Select your installation folder
Specify the folder where you want Eclipse to be installed. The default folder will be in your User directory.
Select the ‘Install’ button to begin the installation.
5. Launch Eclipse
Once the installation is complete you can now launch Eclipse. The Eclipse Installer has done it’s work. Happy coding.
