Apple provided me with a pair of useless dialog boxes this evening when I tried to install their Java update. Here’s the first one…
And clicking OK revealed useless dialog box #2…
What am I supposed to do with this? No information and no path to resolution. Annoying! Didn’t they read my blog post from the other day? Just to recap:
- Provide meaningful information in dialog boxes. Why couldn’t it be installed? What sort of error occurred?
- If there’s a problem, give me an option to fix it.
- If there’s a problem that can’t be fixed by clicking a button, at least give me some helpful instructions.
