Installed Mavericks and several apps won't even launch

I installed Mavericks in my MacBook Pro and now several apps (Calendar, Maps, Photo Boot, App Store, etc) won't launch. There's no error pop up. The icons on the dock just bounce a few times and stop.
Help, please.

I haven't had this problem but people on this discussion have reported that reinstalling Mavericks (over your current installation) will fix this.

  • Updating Captivate 6.1.0319 for Mavericks OS when it won't even launch?

    How do I install the correct update for Mac OS Mavericks and Captivate 6.1.0.319? Clearly without the update this version will not run under Mavericks, so I cannot perform a Help > Update as described in the download guide. Is there another way or am I missing something here?
    Our clients use version 6 so we must be able to continue with that instead of version 7 unfortunately.

    Hi Hlmanshu,
    Thanks for your reply but we've since solved the issue in the following way... (possibly not correct but seems to work!):
    Basically we had an install of Captivate 6.1 on a Mac OS X 10.8 which was working fine and recently changed from the month to month subscription into the yearly month to month. This change resulted in it being patched to 6.1.039 (I think or maybe it was 6.1.038), as after a recent upgrade to Mavericks, the install stopped launching. After some fiddling around I checked the forums and eventually found the issue documented, and the page to the solution downloads - http://www.adobe.com/support/captivate/downloads.html.
    However the solution for the 6.1.039 users was to launch the app and use the Help > Update function to obtain a Mavericks compatible fix… clearly we could not do this, hence the original post on the forum. I was wanting a standalone download of the Mavericks fix for our version, and maybe if I had emailed your subs support then it would have been provided. But either I was miss reading the downloads page, or missing something else, so I decided to fiddle a little further before I saw your reply.
    So I wondered if I could install the ‘non-recommended’ patch to at least get it launching, and then use the menu to update. The first patch download I tried did not work (possibly due to a download error), but trying 6 Patch (6.0.1.240), it installed without issue. Captivate then ran on Mavericks, and I followed the Help > Update option to patch it up again.
    So we have, at least for now, a working 6.2 version of Captivate. Incidentally our yearly month by month licence seems to work for this version even though it lists version 7 - which is no good to us as our current client uses 6.
    I would recommend the following for future situations like this:
    1. Adobe send email communication to all known users of their software, where OS and (if possible to check) version of install is likely to have an issue to Mac OS or other OS updates. It seems that on the forums the first patch was published in Dec 2013, so I suspect early Mavericks users were rather frustrated at the delay - but until you make this information more public you will continue to frustrate users over the next few months whilst Mavericks continues to roll out.
    2. Clearly the error given in this situation, a caution symbol, can be considered a local computer problem - especially as the frequency of using Captivate may mean the upgrade of Mavericks and the next use of Captivate are weeks apart. We lost a few hours trying various OS level checks such as permissons, checking subscriptions, and reinstalling the version we had. On that point, without the application launching there was no simple way to confirm which version we had installed, so when I eventually found the forum and upgrade instructions it was not obvious which one to install. Each of the files was a significant download size, so again some lost hours waiting for patches we did not need.
    3. Clarification at some level about the changed subscriptions, especially the fact that a version 7 licence will permit version 6 to be used instead.
    In regards 1,2, and 3, I must apologise if I've missed something and this information was already communicated... but having the information at my finger tips when our instructional deisgner was needing to complete work for a client would have been great.
    Thanks and I'll post again should our current install (what ever version it is) buggers up in some way soon!

  • IPad apps won't even launch which tapped

    Hi,
         On and iPad 2 - with the latest iOS, - I am unable to open any apps on my iPad.  Short of completly wiping it and starting over - I'd really like to have some other options.
        I've done a hardware reset (power +home).
        I've deleted an installed App and re-installed it.
        I even downloaded a free new app, and no dice.
    Is there an option or route I'm missing?

    Sign out of your account on the iPad in Settings>Store >Apple ID - restart the iPad and then sign in again and try your apps again.
    Did you try syncing with iTunes?

  • I upgraded my Firefox today(feb 29) at lunch and now firefox won't even launch!!?? help please!

    I have a huawei ideos s7 and installed Firefox in December. Upgraded Firefox in January(I think) and it worked fine!
    Today I upgraded it again and now Firefox launches but immediately closes down.

    Hi,
    I'm sorry you are having this problem with Firefox mobile. Are you running any other applications when you launch Firefox? Also, are you launching it from the All Applications, or from a link in your email or twitter?
    You might try launching from All Apps if you haven't already done so. If all else fails, you could try to uninstall and then reinstall, but you will lose your addons and sync setup if you do that. Let me know a bit more info and I'll try to help or find someone else who can.
    Thanks,
    Michelle

  • Since installing IOS 5 on my iphone4, the music gets mixed up and sometimes it won't even play it !

    Since installing IOS 5 on my iphone4, the music gets mixed up and sometimes it won't even play it !
    Even after many tries of sync, it won't work like before...
    Anyone had the same problem?

    Same problem here, but I found a solution that worked for me:
    Altered from original solution from Emily P:
    Okay, mine now works here is what I did.
    plug in the iPhone, iPad etc
    in iTunes select the phone or iPad
    Under Summary uncheck "Sync with this....."
    Under "Music" uncheck the "Sync Music"
    Sync
    Let it remove all the songs, dont worry it will come back no problems.
    Once that is all done all the music on the phone or ipad should be gone.
    Now check them both back on, sync, and everything should copy back onto it.
    Working now !!!!!

  • I downloaded Mavericks, and now ITunes won't open

    Although the iTunes icon is showing on the dock and in Launchpad and Finder, it won't open.

    To confirm, you've downloaded and installed Mavericks, and not just downloaded Mavericks, right? 
    If you have installed Mavericks, have you tried updating to load the current iTunes 12 software, to see if that might resolve this?
    I'd probably also try using Disk Utility.app (Applications > Utilities) to repair the disk permissions, and also to check the volume for errors, though it's not at all clear that would help here.
    If all that fails, see if Console.app (Applications > Utilities) shows any messages relevant to iTunes, if you launch that and then try the (failing) iTunes launch.

  • I keep receiving this error every time I open LR, "Lightroom encountered and error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" and the app won't open. It said LR would try and fix this error next time I opened it but the error remains. I tried

    I keep receiving this error every time I open LR, "Lightroom encountered and error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" and the app won't open. It said LR would try and fix this error next time I opened it but the error remains. I tried uninstalled and installing the app and the error remains. I have windows 8. Can anyone please help???

    Use Windows Explorer to open the folder containing your catalog. The normal location is Pictures\Lightroom. Locate a folder with the extension .lrdata and delete that folder. Then you should be able to start Lightroom again, and Lightroom will begin building and new previews folder. Do not delete anything else.
