I've finally managed to install this program only to try and remove iTunes because every time I try to start it up, it gives me the message to reinstall it again and error 7.

How do I uninstall iTunes?

Oracle JAVA PPA for Ubuntu and Linux Mint is being maintained by Ubuntu based blog named Webupd8 Team. To install java PPA for Ubuntu and Linux Mint, we need to add webudp8team Java PPA repository in y our system.

First off, i think you need some clarification: any files installed via Wine dont end up in Synaptic Package Manager, nor are they installed as packages in the Linux/Debian sense (as a result, i've removed those tags, and replaced it with wine)

To remove programs installed with Wine (in this case, iTunes), Configure Wine, or Wine Software tool, whichever it is, to run the uninstaller. Or go into ~/.wine/drive_c/program files/... (whatever the path is for iTunes), and run its own uninstaller.

Also, in future, you should use this site to determine application compatibility with Wine. This way, you dont have to deal with learning after-the-fact that your installed software wont work.

Open a terminal and type wine uninstaller. Select iTunes from the list and click remove.

I had this same issue but what I did that helped was to remove the itune fold at Nautilus. Press ALT and F2 simultaneously and type gks nautilus and look for the itune folder and delete it.

Go to the launcher and click on the 1st icon, then browse 'to browse the disk c:'.Click on 'Program Files' and delete a folder called 'iTunes'.

Today we will be going through the steps to install Oracle Java JDK which includes JDK and JRE on Ubuntu 18.04 & Linux Mint 19.

Java JDK is the base for the JAVA developers, and this guide will be more useful for them to build a development environment when they especially use Ubuntu or Linux Mint.

Prerequisites

To be able to install Oracle Java JDK, you need to log in as a user with sudo privileges.

Install Oracle Java JDK

We can install Oracle Java JDK in two ways,

2: Install Oracle Java JDK using PPA

1: Install Oracle Java JDK Using Official Source

Download Oracle Java

You can either use the command line or browser to download the JDK.

Visit the Oracle JDK page to download.

Oracle Java JDK 12:

Oracle Java JDK 11 (LTS):

Oracle Java JDK 8:

If you still want to use the command line, use the below command.

We would need to extract the downloaded JDK archive to some location. Here, I chose to place JDK in /usr/lib/jvm/ directory.

Linux Mint Install Java Jdk

Extract the downloaded JDK archive using the tar command.

Install Oracle Java

Run update-alternatives command to install the Java on your system.

Set Default Java Version

Set the default java using the below command.

The above command would list all Java JDK installed on your system, like below.

Choose the default Java version by entering the number below Selection column and press enter.

Here, I chose to have Oracle JDK 11 as the default Java version on my system.

2: Install Oracle Java JDK Using PPA

Oracle Java 11 / 8 releases (11.0.3 and older) require signing in using an Oracle account to download the binaries. So, installing Oracle Java JDK using PPA requires the user to download the Oracle JDK 11 .tar.gz and place it in a folder, and then need to install the oracle-java11-installer-local package for JDK installation.

Due to this, I recommend you to install Oracle JDK using the previous method.

Verify Java

Now, check the java version using the following command.

Output:

The output will vary depending upon the version of Oracle Java installed on your system.

Setup JAVA Environmental Variables

Some Java application installations require prior configuration of environmental variables like JAVA_HOME , JRE_HOME,etc.

To set JAVA environment variables, create a new file under /etc/profile.d directory.

Place the variables based on the JDK location and version.

Linux

Oracle Java 12:

Oracle Java Install Linux Mint

Oracle Java 11:

Oracle Java 8:

Linux Mint 16 Petra

To load the environments into the current session, run:

Conclusion

That’s All. I hope this post helped you install Oracle Java on Ubuntu 18.04 & Linux Mint 19. Java is a must to run applications such as Tomcat, Gradle, ELK Stack, Graylog, Eclipse IDE, etc.
