      Bug description: A user reported the following: "Have tried EVERYTHING to get the .jnlp files to open on my Mac Mountain Lion 10.8.2. I am an Online Education instructor and I am not able to connect with my class now as of the last update Java 7.13. I really need to get this happening. I have been in contact with Blackboard Support who tried everything too, and no good. I have followed Apple's site and terminal code lines as found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5559?viewlocale=en_US and then I had to reinstall the Java 7.13 and again, I am still unable to activate what appears to be the java web start components. I have sat side by side with another Mac user with 10.8.2 and we compared the java settings, and they were identical. PLEASE help me get back online."
