The steps given worked perfectly, but I can't play with multiple mods. I did all the steps but just included two mods than one mod. But, then, when I ran the game with a new profile and version, it crashes. Any solution?
Never mind about this. I think it didn't work because one mod wasn't updated for 1.6.1 to support it.
The new launcher holds no problems for me, yet I am on a new computer, as I am on vacation, and I would like to play on the older version to be able to connect to my servers. Could someone direct me to a link to the older launcher?
Thanks ~aheberle

you can play on older versions of minecraft with the new launcher. The launcher doesn't prevent you from playing on old servers.
Ever since I installed the new launcher, I can only play on an older version of my world from a month or two ago, but when I use external programs, they say that everything is working just fine. Is this a bug and how can it be fixed? Please help! Thanks.
what happens when you try to play on your other worlds, or try to create a new one?
I'm going to ask my question once more, because obviously no one cares enough to answer it. I cannot connect to multiplayer servers. Singleplayer works fine. I am NOT running in offline mode. I updated to 1.6.2 but I'm still having that problem.

I don't like the word, "griefing," I prefer, "tampered with."
When I try and load 1.6.2 in the new launcher, it takes about ten minutes because it seems to be constantly downloading the jars again, even though it already has. Does anyone know why that could be?
I just bought and downloaded Minecraft today (for the PC anyway, been playing the 360 version for some time now) and I ran into an issue. The Minecraft.exe I downloaded for windows keeps getting this error when I try to run it: The registry refers to a nonexistent Java RUntime Environment installation or the runtime is corrupted.
The system cannont find the path specified.
I have redownloaded it 4 times now, and even reinstalled Java 7.25 and still it will not work. I am referring to the 474 KB Application you download from minecraft.net.
Can I play offline?
Yes you can, the client will auto login you to the login server once you start the launcher. However, if it cannot, it will change the "Play" button into "Play Offline".
My launcher does not do this. If I disconnect from my network, then start the launcher, the login portion still says "Play." When I click that, it tells me my name or password are incorrect, to make sure caps lock isn't on, and offers me the options of "Forgot Password" or "okay." How do I play offline??
My problem is exactly as per Sarahtar's. I never get offline option, thus, if no internet connection, game will not start. Is there a solution to this?
I'm having the same problem as 2 above posters, no option to play offline-- with a difference. I was able to do so yesterday and never logged out of my profile, but today my password was cleared out and I couldn't log in. A profile I hadn't even used in days gave me an offline option but nothing I tried could get the other profile to work. This is a paid account since Beta 1.4, I need to play offline because of a week-long problem with my ISP. I'm posting this from my phone because it is just so frustrating and silly.
I'm sorry, but which part of "Support" in the title is Mojang not understanding. Guys, you are happy enough to take the money, and have provided me with a product which now does not work. Relying on on your customers to beta test and then fix other users problems for you is not good enough. How about providing some "support"?
Okay, thanks to post no 19 here http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1879621-no-play-offline-option/, I can get the offline option to come up if I:
fill out username and password, tick "log me in automatically"
log on and start the game.
Close my internet connection.
(can continue to play offline now it seems)
Quit out of loader.
restart loader
"Play Offline" button now available, and working.
This option will stay available whenever I start the loader as long as I don't start the loader with an active internet connection. Then I have to go through this again. As soon as I start the loader with my network connected, there is never an offline option until I have gone through the above process again. This is not what support says which is "log on once and you are good to go".
My young son is the only one who plays this game and I don't want him playing online and I don't want to have to connect/disconnect from my network, or make sure that the wifi is off before he plays, just so he can. I didn't have to prior to this new "improved" loader.
Also can't get it to play offline. Not great for a game that was sold to me as DRM-free.
If there's no DRM, how come offline mode can break? To put it another way, a bug can't magically make DRM appear but it can make it malfunction if it's already there.
So why is there DRM in my DRM-free game?
I think you have to log in first before the DRM is disabled.
Dl'd and tried the new launcher for the first time to play in 1.6.2, i had to recreate a mojang account since mine wasn't working but now i only have access to the demo version of the game.
I Tried to migrate my old account but couldn't manage to do so. Apperently my login is not sufficient and my email account is not recognised.
Is there anyway i can get my game back?
I didn't see mention of this so I figured I'd ask, what's the new console command for launching the new launcher? The old one "java -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame" doesn't work anymore and I'd really like to make a shortcut for launching the game.
Never mind about this. I think it didn't work because one mod wasn't updated for 1.6.1 to support it.
Thanks ~aheberle
It'll be in your downloads folder.

Link Removed and click continue.

Why is it that when I look in the versions folder, there is nothing in it at all?

Hey everyone, I'm back!
I Tried to migrate my old account but couldn't manage to do so. Apperently my login is not sufficient and my email account is not recognised.

BTW I'm kind of raging against mojang right now
