Since uploading Maverick, all of my Microsoft apps give an error message "(name of the app) quit unexpectedly.  Click Reopen to open the application again."  However, this does nothing but renew this window.  I have to click on the "OK" button to get rid of the error message.  What to do?

Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
Do they launch OK while in Safe Mode?

  • After upgrading to Mavericks my Time Machine gives me error message.

    I use a WD Live Book that keeps my security copies on my home network. Since installing Mavericks I get an error message saying that it cannot perform security copies cause sparse file already exists and refers back to latest copy 48 days ago.
    However when I do go in to Time Machine it seems to show that for the last 3 days scurity copies have been done.
    But when I try to do a a new security copy invariably the top menu says that copy has failed.
    Has anyone experienced the same thing? Is there anyway to check clearly if Time Machine is now working properly or not?
    Thank you for any replies...

    Dear Matt,
    Basicaly I think what happened was what your article describes:
    Time Machine keeps track of files and folders that have changed since your last backup so that it only backs up those files and folders. If Time Machine loses track of files and folders that have changed since the last backup, it compares an "inventory" of your current data to an inventory of your backup. When this happens, Time Machine preferences displays a "Preparing..." status message for a longer period of time. See Mac OS X 10.5: Time Machine preferences may display "Preparing" for a longer time.
    Message: Time Machine starts a new, full backup instead of a smaller incremental backup
    However none of the reasons the article presents were the cause I think, since I only tried to backup after the installation of Mavericks. Maybe time capsule hadn't updated right after? I really don't know. However I am glad to say that the problem seems to have fixed itself. It took a long time preparing a backup and finally did a complete backup of roughly 200GB which took a while. (which I am still to verify if it has deleted backups from before the installation of Mavericks due to lack of space).
    Anyhow its backed up and seems to be working fine now. As to why it's happened and how it got fixed or what the problem actually was... I really don't know.
    Thank you for the reply, it was helpful at least to determine what might have gone wrong.
    Best,

  • HT204266 why do my apps give an error message of "Album art could not be downloaded" when I try to update my ipod touch apps?

    When I go to the App update page, all of the icons have a picture of a broken link.  If I try to update the apps, I get a message that says "There was a problem downloading the artwork.  Please try again by choosing 'check for available downloads' from the store menu."  Nothing changes when I follow this direction.

    Have you tried downloading the apps on your computer and syncing?
    The message means what it says. Yu do not see the "artwork" for the app.

    Try using Google's DNS instead of the one your IPS is providing.
    - To change on the iPod go to Settings>wifi and change the DNS to 8.8.8.8
    - For the computer see:

    - Did anything happen to your router right before this started? Maybe the router is blocking the port used.

  • Have IPAD 1 and since uploading os5 I cannot upload pictures from my Sony camera. Error message reads the USB is not compatable. I'm not sure about the new os, how do I go back to what worked?

    Have an IPad 1 and since upgrading to os 5 nothing seems to be working as before.  Current problem is I cannot upload pictures from my camera...error message "USB not compatable".  Using Apple's converter...how do I go back to the old OS?

    Nirve-
    I do not think there will be any way to revert back to an earlier system.
    The "current" problem with some cameras and card adapters resulted from Apple changing the amount of current available to USB devices, apparently to prevent them from running down the iPad's battery.  It appeared when the iOS was updated from 3 to 4.  On my iPad 2, I find that a little bit more current is available now under iOS 5.
    One way to get around the problem is by using a powered USB hub.  Another is to remove the card from the camera and use the SD adapter from the Camera Connection Kit.  If your Sony used a CF card, then you will need to find a CF-to-USB adapter that does not draw too much current.  I have one that works, but also have a couple that do not.

  • I get nothing but error messages, -"Your IMAP server wants to alert you to the following: 113 that mail is not available" or 364? there are hundreds stacked up.You must give answers to how to fix these when we do "search" add the error code number

    I get nothing but error messages, -
    "Your IMAP server wants to alert you to the following: 113 that mail is not available"  or  the same with:  364? 
    Now there are hundreds stacked up on my desktop.
    I cannot find the answer anywhere. You need to  give answers to how to fix these errors because when I  "search" "error code" or the number there is NOTHING. NOTHING!  Yet you give us these stupid error codes
    then you do not give us ANYTHING on how to fix these. These error codes make me so mad it makes me hate outlook, and hate the developers and hate microsoft.  How in the world can you give us ERROR codes without the explanation of what
    to do or how to fix it. You need to  add each  error code number in your "search" then explain what it is and how to fix it.  I am not a tech. I am a lawyer. I have googled the entire string of error code and nothing is clear.
    So, for the last several years, I get these error codes. Also, there is another error code that won't go away--it is the password error code that asks if I want to store the password. Yes, so I say YES. but it pops back. I am sick of this. This is the reason
    I hate Microsoft and I love google. #1 they respond to error, #2 them try to fix them you do not. I paid the full price to buy the OUtlook 2010, almost $500 just to get outlook, and all I got was error codes. I could not even open it because all I would get
    was that error codes and NO ONE knew how to fix them. WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM that you cannot fix the stupid error codes that you imbed? PLEASE HELP

    Hi,
    I understand how frustrated you are when facing such an issue, maybe I can provide some suggestions on the problem.
    Based on the description, you should be using an IMAP account setup in Outlook. As for the error message, usually it's caused by a corrupted message on the Server. I suggest you logon the Webmail site, check if sending/receiving emails works well.
    If you find any unusual emails that cannot be read or sent, try deleting them to try again.
    I also suggest you create a new profile to setup the IMAP account:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918/en-us
    Contact your Email Service Provider to get the correct and latest account settings, since you have been using Outlook for years, some settings may have been changed while you haven't been informed.
    For the steps to setup an account in Outlook 2010, please refer to:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/outlook-help/add-or-remove-an-email-account-HA010354414.aspx
    I hope this helps.

  • My iPad2 will sometimes hang when loading an mp4. Gives an error message then attempts to resync which hangs until I unplug the iPad.

    My iPad2 will sometimes hang when loading an mp4. Gives an error message then attempts to resync which hangs until I unplug the iPad.
    I have an iPad 2and have not had any trouble until I up dated my os. I have a pc with win 7.  I do not sync since I have so much music on my computer. I synced my apps during the back up but I had to manually reload my music and videos. Since then I turned off all syncs.
    Since I have to load all my movies on this has been happening. I get through about 4 movies then it will hang up. I eventually get an error message that it cannot load this movie. I then attempts to close out. This seems to hang. When I attempt to eject the iPad it attempts to sync and that never finishes. I pull the plug and that stops the sync but I have to restart the computer before I plug back in the iPad or it will not recognize it or it will attempt to finish the sync which never ends. It sometimes hangs on something with safari and site protection.
    After I restart my computer I can put in 4 or so movies, including the one it hung on before, but it always hangs up again. Any suggestions?

    I am having an almost identical problem and hoped that iOS 6 and the new iTunes would fix it.  Regrettably, I again got 3 movies synced last night before iTunes locked up and gave me the xxxx cannot be synced "because the file cannot be written" message.  Same deal with iTunes hanging on "finishing sync" after that and me having to remove the iPad from the cable to get things to come back to life on the PC (Win 7 64 bit).
    I've also done a factory restore followed by a restore from backup and have the same problem.
