Mac OS X
RazorSQL requires OS X 10.2 or newer. For best results, use of one of the following operating systems is recommended: OS X 10.7 (Lion), OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), OS X 10.5 (Leopard), or OS X 10.4 (Tiger). RazorSQL runs on both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of OS X.

For OS X 10.7 Lion, the first time you launch RazorSQL, you may receive an error window or prompt by the Apple Software Update tool asking you if you would like to install a Java runtime. This is because the Apple Java runtime environment is an optional installation on Lion and is not included in the main Lion installer. Click install to get the latest Java runtime from Apple. RazorSQL needs the Apple Java runtime environment to work correctly.
For OS X 10.2, the apple software update Java Release 1.4.1 is required. For OS X 10.4 Tiger, software update Java 5.0 Release 4 is recommended, but not required. There are no updates required for OS X 10.5 Leopard or OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
