I am trying to run the Minecraft Demo on a Mac. It doesn't run. I get a Java error (included below). I have 3 kids who want me to buy a minecraft account for each of them. Before I spend $80 I want to make sure this thing works. I have looked at the minecraft.net website but cannot find any way to contact support. So, is there any support for Minecraft from the developers?

Hi and welcome! While there is some support from Mojang usually it's just with account issues.
I hope we can get this working for your 3 eager children. That being said, my knowledge of Mac equals nearly zero. However there is a Mac help thread that has a lot of advice and troubleshooting info that may help you get started and it can be found here: http://www.minecraft...ac-support-101/
Hopefully others with more knowledge can assist you further if that thread doesn't help completely.
Java Version: 1.7.0_09, Oracle Corporation I have the same problem after i updated to java 1.7 Alot of other people with this problem are also using 1.7 and are on a mac. I have tried updating the LWJGL but that did not work. I am still trying to fix this.

It's not Java 1.7, it's Java 7 Update 9, also abbreviated as Java 7u9. Like rodabon I have minimal experience with Mac, but by the looks of it it looks like a re-install of Minecraft may work. Simply delete the .minecraft folder and try again. As for the accounts for your children, I'm certain it is not violating the Mojang policy if you use one account on one computer. If you are going to install on more than one computer you will need the appropriate amount of accounts and also, why not test on one of those?

A double resolution texture pack that stays faithful to the original Minecraft textures.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
