App can't be opened??

I am trying to open a .psd file with Pixelmator (which I know it can do) yet it tells me that "The application can't be opened. -35" See the pic below for a pic of the pop-up I get. How can I fix this behavior? What might be the cause of it?

Thanks friends.
Jim

Are you opening the file with Pixelmator or are you double-clicking the file?
If double-clicking, are you sure the correct application is associated with
the file?

  • "Final Cut Pro Trial.app" can't be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed.

    Downloaded the FCP trial version from the Apple FCP site several times and still get the following error.
    “Final Cut Pro Trial.app” can’t be opened because the identity of the developer cannot be confirmed.
    Safari downloaded this file today at 1:34 AM from www.apple.com.
    Strange that Apple can't verify it's self.

    To get around that, go to system preferences>security & privacy>allow apps loaded from anywhere. Then set it back to whatever you wish after you finish the download.

  • Illustrator CS5 re-install error: Install.app can't be opened.

    Hello everyone,
    Has anyone ever seen this error when installing Illustrator CS5 on Mac OS X Lion?
    "Install.app" can't be opened. You should eject the disk image.
    Things that might be related;
    a) I've recently upgraded the hard disk. I restored everything from a TimeMachine backup
    b) I had a few strange things happen with illustrator over the last few months. Yesterday I couldn't place .png graphics into a file, so I uninstalled everything and decided to reinstall from scratch.
    c) My downloaded source (illustrator_15_1_LS1.dmg) was kept on a network volume. I assumed the error meant it was corrupted so I downloaded the source again from Adobe. I get the same error on the newly downloaded file.
    d) Following a suggestion elsewhere in the forums, I tried Disk Utility > Verify Disk on my new hard disk. It found several permission errors which I let it fix. The problem remains.
    I'd appreciate any suggestions on how I can solve this.
    Many thanks
    Steve

    Solved
    Short answer: OS X 10.7.4 (or maybe before) introduced an incompatibility between Illustrators install file and Mac OS X.
    Updating to OS X 10.7.5 solves this.
    Through this post on stack overflow:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11171246/why-does-os-x-10-7-4-want-me-to-move-my-app-to -the-trash
    it directed me towards Gate Keeper functionality of OS X 10.8 having been enabled in updates in OS X 10.7.4(or earlier, not too sure). 
    Running `sudo spctl -a Install.app/` gave the result CSSMERR_TP_CERT_REVOKED but the solution posted on stackoverflow of disabling gate keeper didn't work.  So I set off to find a way of inspecting the certificate. I didn't find instructions to read the certificate but that did lead me to read the apple site about gate keeper and that although it was introduced as a feature in Mountain Lion (os x 10.8) some features were provided for developers in Lion (10.7).
    I thought I'd have to buy and install Mountain Lion but found that I hadn't got the latest Lion update.  I downloaded that, installed, restarted and now the installer works fine.

  • Finder.app Can't be Opened after upgrade

    I just upgraded to Yosemite and my desktop will load for a few seconds before disappearing and Finder.app Can't Be Opened
    2014 MacBook Air

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • ""Install Adobe Flash Player.app" can't be opened because... not downloaded from the Mac App Store"

    I jsut upgraded to 10.9 and it is up to date and also my safari is up to date (no updates available for it). My safari is saying that my flash is out of date. when I follow the links it lets me download but when I double click to install it tell me "“Install Adobe Flash Player.app” can’t be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store.". When I install the flash UNinstaller and try to install that, it tells me the same. I ALSO found the exact same problem when I tried to install the acrobat installer (some tried to download a pdf and the page told me that my acrobat reader 'might' be out of date). Any thought?

    You're running up against the GateKeeper.
    Download the offline installer: Flash Player 12.0.0.44 (Mac OS X) by right clicking and choosing "Download Linked File As".
    Mount the DMG and when it opens, right click the installer and choose "Open".
    You'll see a warning. Click "Open" again.
    It will run from there.

  • I plugged in a USB drive, tried to open Finder, got the message Finder.app can't be opened - 10810, went into terminal.app, messed up, now terminal screen blank.  how do i regain terminal in order to fix finder problem?

    With my iMac running, I plugged in a USB drive.  When I clicked on finder, I got the message Finder.app can't be opened - 10810.  I removed the USB drive.  I messed up while in Terminal.app trying to fix Finder problem.  Now my terminal screen is blank, just the cursor, but no action after typing a command & clicking enter.  Help!

    I finally figured out a way to Restart (normal way wasn't working...) & that Restart DID FIX both the Terminal problem AND the Finder problem.  So easy, yet so elusive.  Thanks so much.

  • "Finder.app can't be opened"

    I seem to have had finder lockup and have to force quit out of it a number of time recently.
    I then get
    The application finder.app can't be opened -10810
    and have to run a restart to get it going again.
    how worried should I be about this? Solutions?
    Thanks in advance for any experience on this.

    These are both simple and could fix it.
    Restart in safe mode.

    Then restart normally.
    Delete the Finder preferences file.
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/finder.html
    If both of these fail then you will need to try repair permission etc. Which are more complicated.
    edit: You could also try making a new user account and if the problem doesn't persist migrating your files over

  • Time machine problem? The application Finder.app can't be opened -10810

    I've got a Snow Leopard system with an external FireWire Maxtor drive that has been set to be a Time Machine archive of the internal drive. I'm noticing the following problem (twice so far) which may or may not be TM related. I leave my machine and come in the morning; Time Machine says no backup happened since 7:45pm last night. I notice the file system is acting weird - can't open any of the disks from the desktop. I try to restart the Finder, and it says "The application Finder.app can't be opened -10810" - won't start the Finder! So, I had to reboot (and disconnected the FW drive). I'll try it for a couple of nights without the TM machine and see what happens. The reason I suspect TM is that sometimes I see the icon on the TM disk change from the blue/gray TM icon back to its native FW disk icon, and sometimes I see a message that says "Can't find disk" or something similar for that external drive.
    Any ideas? Should I be looking for an external drive from another vendor, or will it be the same thing? Does TM have problems associated with Finder and error -10810? How do I debug?

    No, I tried different drives, and it made no difference.

    funny you should mention SuperDuper. When you had this problem, did you have SuperDuper scheduled to back up other drives? I have a theory, which I'll test eventally. For some reason, this TM problem only happened at night - not all the times it activated (every hour) during the workday. Why?!? Well, one thing that happens at night for me is a scheduled SuperDuper backup of the same drive (the one TM is backing up) onto a mirror drive (not the one TM is writing to).
    Maybe that's when the freeze occurs - when they both coincide at night? I'd think that the Unix-base of OS X shouldn't have any problems when two apps are reading one disk and at the same time, but maybe TM and SuperDuper are both doing some sort of low-level reads that can't be done at the same time? What do you think - might this explain your issues also?

    Hi ..
    A Safe Mode boot deletes some system caches that may help after an OS X upgrade.
    Top left corner of your screen click the  Apple   > Shut Down.
    After your Mac shuts down, wait 10 seconds, then press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold down the Shift key. You should press the Shift key as soon as possible after you hear the startup tone, but not before.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, go back to the Apple  menu. From the drop down menu click:  Restart
    Then try the Finder.

    I am getting the error "The application “Microsoft Word.app” can’t be opened." I have Microsoft Office for Mac. Help!

    Your MS Office may have become corrupted.  Reinstalling Office can address problems that you may be experiencing.
    I don't know what version of Office for the Mac that you have, 2008 or 2011.
    The current version of Office 2011 is 14.4.9.
    First - find your Office 2011 install disc with the product key # - and only then remove Office according to MS instructions
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768
    Or go here to DianefromOregon's site for help removing Office 2011:
    http://www.officeformachelp.com/2012/12/office-for-mac-2011-remove-office/
    Then Reinstall from DVD
    Then enter your Product #
    After successfully reinstalling Office 2011,  update your Office product using the Software update within Office called Microsoft Update or going to the Help menu within Word or Excel or PowerPoint and select Update.
    It may take a few times before you get to final upgrade to current Office version.
    It should be 14.4.9 as of current date.
