Apple just have introduced some new security settings in Safari for Java. In an average browser to make  a Java Applet to be able to touch your file system that Applet must be signed. In
the new security update of Safari this Applet must be trusted as well.
This means that you have to allow for the Applet to read and write you file
system. Marvin starts with accessing some files on your computer, which
means that it might not start without this permission or might not
behave correctly.



To allow the application you have to go through some steps. If you first
open a domain that contains a Java Applet, than Safari would prompt you
if you would allow to run Java Applications on that website or not.



If
we choose that we trust that website, than we only allow to start Java
Applets, but we do not allow to those Applets to access our file system.





We can go to the preferences tab of Safari and set the security
settings of Java on the visited website.



Choose to "Manage Website Settings".


 


We can set it to "Allow to run
in unsafe mode" which means it can modify your files.



After that we
should reopen the page that contains Marvin Sketch, or should restart
Safari because it can stuck in the untrusted mode and our application
can be whacky.
