Barry, Actually the IDV for OS X comes with its own Java. In this case, it is the install4j IDV *installer* that is complaining that it cannot find Java. Try getting a version of Java available here: http://www.java.com/en/ and trying the IDV installation process again. Please keep us up-to-date on your progress.
