Hi Christian,

Have you followed the work-arounds in these posts?

In particular, confirm that you have performed both of these steps and
let me know if you are still having problems:

Since OS X 10.7 (Lion), Java is no longer pre-installed so you are
prompted to install it the first time you install a Java application.
When you see the message "To open AstroImageJ64.app you need to install
the legacy Java SE 6 runtime", click 'More Info...' to download and
install Apple Java 6 on your machine. After the download completes, open
the Downloads folder and double-click the JavaForOSX2014-001.dmg file.
The double-click JavaForOSX.pkg and follow the instructions on the
screen to complete the package installation.

With OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion), you may get the message "AstroImageJ64
is damaged and can't be opened". To work around this problem, go to
System Preferences ->Security & Privacy -> General and set "Allow
applications downloaded from:" to "Anywhere". You can restore the
original setting once AstroImageJ is running the first time.
