HT2476 Notes App will not launch on my MacBook
It works fine all my other devices, including my MacBook Pro. Running Mountain Lion (10.8.2) on both computers. Any suggestions?

Re: Mountain Lion Notes Crash When Using MS Exchange Notes
Jul 27, 2012 11:06 AM (in response to AppleJackson)
I was having the same issue! I finally found a solution to it!
1. Delete your exchange account from the Mail, Contacts & Calendars pane in System Preferences.
2. Go to Finder, click "Go" in the menu bar, click "Go to Folder" and type in "~/Library" (without the quotes) in the box. This will take you to your user Library folder.
3. Use the search box in the finder and type in "com.apple.notes" and click "Library" in the search bar that appears. This should now find several folders and files related to the Notes app. Rename or delete everything except the help files (with the lifesaver icons on them). Just to be safe, I'll list the files and folders you should delete or rename and their directory paths:
com.apple.Notes - /Users/danieloria/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/
com.apple.Notes - /Users/danieloria/Library/Containers
com.apple.Notes.plist - /Users/danieloria/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Preferences
com.apple.Notes.savedState - /Users/danieloria/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Saved
4. Restart your Mac. Put your exchange account back into System Preferences, you can go ahead and activate the Notes sync service.
5. Open Notes and it should be working now!
NOTE: I also deleted all the stored information related to the exchange account in Keychain Access when I deleted the 4 com.apple files. This may or may not be necessary, but I just thought it was worth mentioning. -
I'm having problems installing iTunes on a Win 7 machine. The app will not launch correctly. It was working at one time, but now I have no idea why it would not work. I tried uninstalling some applications and still nothing. I did have to delete the Quicktime folders because it did not show up as being installed. Should I reinstall it since it doesnot look like iTunes reinstalled it?
Are you getting an error message when you try to launch iTunes? If so, what does it say? (Precise text, please.)

Suddenly all of my Office-programs have stopped working and will not launch on my MacBook. They were all already installed when I bought the computer. Could anyone give an amateur from Norway a hint of what may cause the problem? (And I can not find the installation-disc for the Office Programs...Super!)
Have you contacted Microsoft support - http://www.microsoft.com/mac/support ?

Lync mobile app will not launch after upgrade to lollipop on HTC One (M8)
Lync mobile app will not launch after upgrade to lollipop on HTC One (M8). Is this a known issue or is a fix available?
Hi THGutz,
Did you install the latest version of Lync for Android ?
The current version of Lync for Android is
5.5.3.8935.
I don’t test it on M8, but on other Android 5.0 devices it works fine.
Best regards,
Eric

My phone would not turn on and was sitting at the apple screen for about 20 min. I finally plugged it in and it turned on, but now none of my applications will launch except the ones that were on the phone when purchased. I am also receiving a very poor signal since this happened? Any suggestions?
Re the apps not launching.
On the phone, go to the app store and download a small free app. I usually use a flashlight or other small app.
Install the app, and your other apps should now work. You can delete the free app, it's done its job.
Installing an app seems to reset something in the iPhone. This has been a problem since forever, and Apple doesn't seem too concerned about it (based on the fact that it's been a known problem for a long time).
No idea what's causing the poor signal. -

Firefox 8.0 will not start on my Macbook OSX - claims it is already open
Mac OS X - 2.4 ghz intel core 2 Duo
Firefox 8.0 will not open. Uninstalled old versions of firefox.Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
See:
