10.4.6 crashes non-Intel apps

Man, I am annoyed.
I updated to 10.4.6, and now all my apps going through Rosetta crashes without warning, and I DON'T GET AN ERROR MESSAGE to submit to Apple.
Yep, the apps crash without a sound, without a sign, and just disappears.
I lost a major document that I was about to save - when all of a sudden - it's gone.
Usually I would get a crash message and one of those dialogues to submit to Apple - but I got nothing.
I don't know how to go back to the old version, so I am stuck with this, I guess.

It sounds to me like you have a severe case of disk or file corruption on your hands. I would suggest you follow the steps in the following FAQ in the order given.
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/repairprocess.html
Another issue could be corrupted fonts if you have installed any. Font Book can help with that issue as you can use it to find and fix duplicate and corrupt font issues.
You may want to take a look at the following FAQ from the same site which talks about applications that quit suddenly. Maybe there is a clue in it as to what may be causing your problem:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/multipleappsquit.html
Some people report that reinstalling a software update sometimes cures problems. To do so you have to download the stand alone update and I don't know if it is available yet. I also have my doubts as to how effective this trick really is. However, if all else fails it can't hurt to try.
Good Luck!!

    Hello there, Goraksanat.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some good pointers for troubleshooting your issue:

    Additionally you can try an SMC reset as it is recommended for:

  • TS1702 Safari, Maps, App Store, and Non Apple Apps crashing on IOS6

    Since upgrading to IOS 6, the majority of my apps are crashing after a few seconds, including Safari, App Store, I Books and also non apple apps like BBC News etc.
    I have:
    Reset
    Restored
    Tried the date and time change (not affective)
    I cant at the moment even add any new apps or reinstall as this crashes.
    This is so frustrating! Any one have a fix?
    Thanks, Nick

    Tried both .. and then some =( no glory.
    I got the onyx and ran that still crashing once loaded.
    Firefox is working great and other apps work that i use its just app store and safari.
    Really weird.
    I also re-patched 10.6.6
    Cache was cleared, verified
    Removed all plugins in safari folder
    clear all cache on the onyx program with all options checked including the dyld.
    Anyone have any suggestion. They would be greatly appreciated.

  • All Non-Apple Apps Keep Crashing

    I updated the firmware on my friend's iPhone 3Gs from 4.1 to 4.3.3 using my computer. This is not the computer that my friend used to sync the iPhone and it was the first time when the iPhone was synced to my computer. I noticed now that all non-Apple apps crash when I try to start them. How could I fix this problem? Should I tell my friend to sync the 3Gs on the computer where it was synced before? Thanks.

    Thanks. It worked, indeed!

  • Non-Universal Apps won't launch on Intel Macs with Unsanity's App Enhancer

    I just got a new Intel MacBook Pro and ran into a problem with lauching non-Universal apps. When I tried to launch them, their icon would bounce once or twice in the dock, and then nothing. After many hours and a call to Apple support without any luck, I started searching tis support forum, and found an old post with something about a problem with Unsanity's products (WindowShade & others). It turns out that their Application Enhancer component was the problem. Unsanity claims it is due to a bug in OS X that Apple hasn't fixed yet. Be that as it may, Unsanity has been very responsible in providing a fix, located in the App Enhancer Preference Pane under System Prefs. Just open the prefs and push on the button labled "Rosetta Troubleshooting". That problem solved.
    Unfortunately, App Enhancer still seems to wreak havoc with Palm's HotSync Manager.

    MBP 17"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    You will find that Unsanity's "fix" doesn't always work. If you install FruitMenu you will find many PPC apps fail to launch regardless of the fix. In that case open APE and turn FruitMenu off temporarily. Also click on the Excluded Apps tab and drag the PPC app you want to run into the list box.
    Finally, if that doesn't help (although it should) then open the Terminal and at the prompt enter the following command line pressing return at the end:
    sudo killall translated

  • OSX now crashes every hour. OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly. No obvious reason or trigger

    OSX now crashes every hour. For no obvious reason or trigger, suddenly OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly, before the whole thing hangs and needs a hard reboot.
    It is not apparent what I do to provoke the crash -- it happens while I am in seemingly any application, sometimes just reading a page and not taking any actions.
    This started happening very suddenly two days ago. It might have happened around the time I updated ITunes but I'm not sure of this at all. And I never use ITunes or have it open.
    Don't know how to diagnose the problem since nothing is accessible whence it freezes up on me.  I tried software update, but problem continued after. Would appreciate troubleshooting advice. Thanks!

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    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
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after  you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • How do I open non apple apps on my macbook pro

    How do I open non apple apps on my macbook pro? I can't open ever since I downloaded os x maverick

    If you already changed System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Allow apps downloaded from: to Anywhere then issue is not Gatekeeper which is the built-in service that prevents apps from unidentified developers from being executed.  It's possible that you need to either reinstall the App or maybe is simply not compatible with Mavericks yet.  In any event you should be able to at-least look for a crash log for more information.

  • Uninstall FCP 5.0 and reinstall 5.1 universal binary version on non intel

    I have a non intel G5 and just got another intel based Mac, i heard they have fixed the issus with compressor 2.0 in the new version of Final Cut Pro 5.1 which i have also bought and was wondering how to go about uninstalling and reinstalling FCP so that i can take advantage of compressor 2.1 and FCP 5.1. I have the rest of the FCP Studio on my non intel based Mac also but i will be leaving it installed as is, can i just update my FCP 5.1 with the FCP 5.1 disc or would it be better to do i full uninstall and than a reinstall. I have used app zapper in the past on other apps, can i use it for FCP as well, Thanks Charles

  • What version of firefox us used for o/s x non-intel?

    I have an iMac with the non-dual core intel processor. When I updated Firefox, it gave me a version of 3.6.8 on o/s x. However, my intel based macs also running o/s x only updated to 3.6.13. Is there a difference version for intel based vs non intel based?

    It is important for security to use the latest version of Firefox.
    If you have a problem with say a single particular site one unofficial workaround is to install Firefox Portable, as an additional browser that may be used on the problem website. For the day-to-day browsing use Firefox.
    *http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
    Using an alternative browser such as IE or Chrome could be considered. That is secure, but does not enable use of Firefox addons.
    *What are the extensions you are trying to use ?

    * Have you looked for newer or similar extensions
    *Have they got some particular feature you find essential ?

    I've already tried quite a few things, trashing preferences, disabling out external hd, repairing the disk, repairing the user settings.
    Has anyone an idea that could help me solving the problem?

    Hi-
    The "Exception: EXCBADACCESS (0x0001) Codes: KERNINVALIDADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x6c000004" report is often seen with memory related issues. Have you verified your memory with AHT or Rember?
    The "Exception: EXC_BREAKPOINT (0x0006)" could be a different issue, implicating (in Thread 4) the "com.apple.soundtrackpro" plist, and/or (after prior thread 3) loading of the
    "com.apple.audio.midi.CoreMIDI".
    Amoung the preferences that you trashed, was "com.apple.soundtrackpro" or "com.apple.audio.midi.CoreMIDI" among them?
    The two could be related by way of a memory problem, or be seperate issues. The data transfer function returns KERN_SUCCESS if the memory was successfully written, KERNINVALIDADDRESS if an invalid or non-allocated address was specified or there was insufficient memory allocated at one of the addresses and KERNPROTECTIONFAILURE if the destination region was not writable or the source region was not readable. KERNINVALIDADDRESS report is implicating a problem at memory address 0x6c000004.
    I would do some testing/verification of your RAM.

  • Syncing non intel mac to ipad and iphone, how?

    I am still using a G5 so non-intel and has OS 10.5.8. Yeah I know, upgrade. Was waiting forever for new MacPro but now waiting for 27" iMac to be redily available.
    Soooo, I do have iPad Gen 1 running 5.1.1 which I believe is the max for the 1st gen.
    Just got an iPhone 5.
    I sync computer to iPad and cloud that to iPhone... BUT everything doesn't come over. Contacts on iPad shows groups called "From My Mac" and another set called, .mac.
    The only contacts that sync to iPhone are the ones in the ".mac" set which are not the ones I want and those are not visible on my iPad so I cannot figure how to change/import/transfer to it.
    Sure, soon I will have the new iMac but until then, what fundimental issue am I mising?
    Thanks.
    PS: this never ends... not all apps sync'd to iPhone and none of the music. Could that be because I aquired them when I had a different iTunes ID?

    Suddenly all the non-Apple apps will not launch on my iPad (examples: Words with Friends; games; Trip Advisor; magazines, newspapers etc).  Tapping on icon causes the screen to darken for a second, like it is about to launch, and then it crashes back to the home screen.  Apple apps work fine.
    All apps and operating system are up to date.  I have hard re-started the iPad twice. 

    Try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

  • IPad keeps crashing on all apps...safari, games, weather

    iPad keeps crashing on all apps,,safari, games, weather,. After opening something about a minute it crashes. Very frustrating. Anyone with the same problem?

    Well, what Nick wrote won't solve the issue. In fact, nowhere in the Apple discussion forums would you find the right answer; and I can guarantee, no Apple rep will be able to tell you what the issue is. Except me of course. Now that the self-boast is over, here's how to solve the problem once and for all (guaranteed zero crashes post this).
    The basic crashing problem occurs because iPad 2 has an operating system that unfortunately opens up all apps automatically (unless instructed not to) and keeps them on the standby mode. This, combined with the fact that the iPad 2 does not have unlimited RAM (and neither does it have an intelligent process to use the hard disk when the RAM runs out), would lead to almost all iPad 2 units to crash, but only when users have loaded more number of apps than the RAM can handle. 
    There are three methods to resolve this issue for users (for developers and Apple tech personnel, the solutions are given later; you can contact me for the ex gratia OS source code updation to resolve this issue in case you wish):
    SOLUTIONS FOR NEW USERS (warning: experienced users may find these instructions drawling out):
    1. The first method involves five concurrent steps, which I'll describe as 1a to 1e. Of course, this can be done in a shorter way, but I guess for people not conversant with shortcuts, this is better.
    1a: Go to Settings > General > and switch on the "Multi tasking gestures" tab.
    1b. Go to the home screen (by clicking on the Home Screen button on the iPad screen) and swipe four fingers from the bottom of the screen upwards. Do this once or twice and you'll suddenly see a new bench pop up below that contains many applications. These are the applications that are running on a stand by mode and eating up your RAM. Optimally, all of these should have been shut and only those which are being used by you should have been open. Anyway, move to 1c.
    1c. On any of the app icons that you see on this new bench, keep a finger for a few seconds. Now lift your finger. You'll see all icons on the new bench start shaking - and they will additionally have a "-" sign too on their left. Click on this "-" sign and close all applications on the new bottom bench. Return to the Home Screen (click on the button on the iPad screen).
    1d. The apps on the Home Screen are allocated the maximum RAM by the new OS. So, shift all downloaded apps away from the home screen into the subsequent pages. In other words, leave only the original Apple supplied apps (like Settings, Safari etc) on the main first page of the Home Screen. How does one shift other apps to subseqent pages? On any of the apps on the main Home Screen, keep a finger for a few seconds. Lift it the finger for god's sake :) Again, all icons will start shaking and will get a "x" sign on their top. DO NOT touch that "x" sign, which of course, is for deleting the app altogether. Rather, on any one of the non-original Apple apps that are present on the Home Screen, just  place your finger and without lifting the finger, slide the app to the top right corner of the screen and keep it there. You'll notice that the app suddenly gets shifted into the next page. Return to the Home Screen; repeat the process till "all" non original apps are shifted out.
    1e. You can starrt working in peace right from this moment onwards without the ipad crashing. Just keep checking from time to time, how many apps are on standby (swipe four fingers upwards at any time on the iPad) and ensure that those that you are not using are closed.
    1e rejoinder: Impotant instruction: NEVER work on your iPad2 while it is being recharged. The RAM gets screwed as in some iPads, there is no protective interface provided to insulate the CPU from the electrical currents. In fact, switch off your iPad while it is being recharged.
    SOLUTIONS FOR APPLE STAFF:
    1. Diret users to this thread.
    2. Offer users an upgraded RAM.
    3. Provide a protective interface to the CPU and RAM boxes from the electric charge.
    4. Recode the new OS (no need to copy what Vista does; just advise the OS to use the hard disk intelligently when app uage exceeds RAM; or do what Blackberry does - advice the users through a warning message to close down extra apps)
    There you all go. (pardon the spelling mistakes; this was entered through a speech recognition sw)

  • I have a non intel G5 and would like to download i-tune songs that I have recently purchased. I have tried everything and can't find the downloads. Did this G5 just become obsolete with itunes? If not what is the problem?

    I have a non intel G5 and would like to download i-tune songs that I have recently purchased. I have tried everything and can't find the downloads. Did this G5 just become obsolete with itunes? If not what is the problem?

    You can do it with Leopard but it depends upon the iTunes version which you did not reveal.  Also make sure you are looking in the right place for purchases.
    Consider buying a backup drive so you do not need to do this again.  If you are going to run old hardware and software you need to live differently because yes, at some time you will find your version of iTunes no longer works.  You're lucky it still works with Leopard.  As you can see, some versions still work with the iTunes Store but not for repeat downloading.
    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple recommends,  "... back up your iTunes library. " (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519).
    Additional tip at https://discussions.apple.com/message/24176756#24176756
      Select the iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes if you have the sidebar displayed, or with the button at the top right.
      Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links (see https://discussions.apple.com/message/26364186#26364186)
      You can re-download your available previous purchases.
