    99=== Microsoft Windows ===
    1010Double click on the jar file.

    12 If this does not work, you probably need to [wiki:Download#Doubleclickonafiledoesnothing install the Java Runtime Environment].

    1414To avoid the Java console windows staying open, you can use `javaw.exe` instead of `java.exe`.

    16 Be carefully if you run a 64-bit version of Windows, the Java Runtime (update every month) may be installed in 64-bit when visiting the Java web site with a 64-bit version of your browser, or in 32-bit otherwise.
     16Be careful if you run a 64-bit version of Windows, the Java Runtime (update every month) may be installed in 64-bit when visiting the Java website with a 64-bit version of your browser, or in 32-bit otherwise.
    1717Both Java platforms will coexist on the PC, but by default the file associations will run first the 32-bit version, creating VMs limited to a maximum of 247MB (if your VM size reaches this limit, due to the volume of data loaded, JOSM may become very slow or unresponsive).

    2121Visit the www.java.com main site, choose to download java ... and chose the i586 package. You can keep the 64-bit package because it is not installed at the same location than the 32-bit (i586) package.
    2222
    23 If only a 64-bit version of Java is installed on a 64-bit version of Windows (and with a Java version higher or equal to the minimum version specified in the JNLP if you use JavaWebStart to download/update and launch JOSM), JOSM will start automatically in a 64-bit Java VM (with more memory available to handle larger volumes of data, and better performance). Otherwise it will launch in a 32-bit Java VM, unless you add VM parameters to the command line to locate and use the 64-bit version of Java.

    2525But you may also uninstall any 32-bit versions of Java if you don't need applets in a 32-bit browser (the 32-bit version of Java remains useful when using an old 32-bit browser for using applets in web pages, or for 32-bit OSes where this is the only choice available on the web or in standalone usage).

    3232 Although these packages might be a bit older than the .jar files on the main page, they usually fit better into the environment and install dependencies and a starter in the menu automatically.

    73 === Mac OS X ===
    74 1. If you have downloaded `josm-latest.jar` you can start JOSM by clicking on the josm-latest.jar file in the Mac OS X Finder (you might get the warning that you are about to open a file from the internet - just accept).
     70=== MacOS ===
     711. If you have downloaded `josm-latest.jar` you can start JOSM by clicking on the josm-latest.jar file in the MacOS Finder (you might get the warning that you are about to open a file from the internet - just accept).

    7673 This way to start JOSM should be sufficient in most cases.

    78 2. If you are running Mountain Lion, you will need to temporarily disable Gatekeeper. Otherwise, you will be unable to open josm and upon launching josm, receive the error message "JOSM.app is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash." Disable Gatekeeper by opening System Preferences > Security & Privacy, and setting 'Allow applications downloaded from:' to 'Anywhere'. Once you open the application, you can re-enable gatekeeper, and it appears that JOSM will open again without a problem. See [osmwww:user/drnoble/diary/17636 this] and #7904 for more information.
