Good news is, despite the fact that platform vendors are releasing new OS for their devices, you can still use FriendCaller on Mac OS 10.7 Lion, by following one of the two easy methods for installing Java.

Solution 1

Using FriendCaller first time on any desktop or Mac, requires a Java runtime installation, if not installed already. And the user is always prompted to install, when FriendCaller is being launched. One can simply follow the onscreen instructions, and install Java runtime in no time.
