Dear Caleb,

You are using Java 7. We have not tested the IDV on Java 7, yet. This is 
obviously in the plans, but we are being delayed by Java 7 / Java 3D problems 
on Mac OS X. These problems should hopefully be resolved this fall at which 
point we will migrate the IDV to Java 7. In the meantime, we recommend running 
the IDV on Java 6.


Best Wishes,

Unidata IDV Support
