My windows computer has netbeans, and JDK 7 and JRE 7. I made a program and the jar file does not run on a MAC with only Java 6. Installing Java 7 on MAC is a hassle. Can someone help me run the file?

That is expected. If you want to compile with to target 6 with JDK 7, you should use following (assuming that you do not use Java 7 features):
javac -source 1.6 -target 1.6
If you use Maven, go for:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.6</source>
<target>1.6</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
As you said in comment, you use Netbeans. I have no personal experience with it, but according documentation you can change value of Source/Binary Format (to JDK 6 in this case).
You should compile your source code targeted for example at a Java 6 runtime. Using Ant, it's achieved using the target
attribute to the javac
task. Using Maven, use the Maven Compiler Plugin .
You need to set your compilation targets to JDK 6 (or 5, or whatever is the lowest version you want to support).
In Netbeans, Go to the project properties (right-click on the project, select Properties_. Then in the dialog that appears, select "Sources" and change the "Source Level" to JDK 6.
You cannot, in general, run a Java 7 file with the Java 6 runtime. You will have to either install Java 7, or rebuild the jar under Java 6.
