10.6.8 update added a non functioning app...

It seems the 10.6.8 update added Photo Booth to my applications folder. The icon has the "No" symbol on top of it, and clicking on it brings up the message: "You cant open the application Photo Booth because it may be damaged or incomplete." It seems to have installed a bunch of project folders, and HTML files, but no application that I can find anywhere. I have never added this app on my machine, and it is not part of the original installation. Info shows it modified the exact time I updated to 10.6.8. Time machine shows no record of it prior to that time. Anybody else have this? I updated using the Software Update method, my previous version was 10.6.7.

Actually, Photo Booth has been a standard OS X application since Leopard, at least. The reason for what you see is that you must have deleted Photo Booth. The solution is to reinstall Photo Booth from your original Snow Leopard DVD, then reinstall the 10.6.8 update by downloading the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo and reinstalling.
To recover Photo Booth:
How Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD. However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
How to Use Pacifist to Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist from VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
A. Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
B. Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
C. Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder. In the path field enter or paste ....
/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.
• Click on the "Go" button ..... • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1. In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b. or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3. In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4. On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5. Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
20 files were scanned. 20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk. 0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package. 0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6. Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7. In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8. If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9. In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10. If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11. Type in your password, click “OK”
Pacifist will begin to extract files.
12. In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
Notes.....
Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
Stop Leave original alone Update ..... Default selection Replace .... Replace option should only be used on full install packages

Upgraded LR1 - LR3 Catalog: blank Grid, non functioning app

I've been dealing with support on this, but they're utterly useless, taking days to get back to me and spinning me over troubleshooting 101 stuff.
Problem:
Upgraded a perfectly working LR1 catalog to LR3. No issues during upgrade.
Upon trying to use the LR3, the first thousand or so of my photos show up in Grid, but everything after that is blank. By that I mean, a grid cell is drawn, but LR3 doesn't display a thumbnail, or any cell extras or metadata.
Clicking on one of these empty cells gives me a thumbnail frame and some metadata (slowwwwly).
Going to Loupe View on a non-empty cell gives me a "Loading..." spinner and an unrendered thumbnail preview (CPU is not ramping up at all)
Going to Loupe View on an empty cell just gives me a blank screen (CPU is not ramping up at all)
Develop module does load the picture, but slowly.
When I quit, the app freezes up completely, with beachball. Must force-quit (after giving it 20 minutes in case it was actually trying to do something)
Initially, when I load LR3, my CPU runs high, 75%, like it's working on something. Then it just cuts out as if it's given up.
Console output when this happens is the following:
6/17/10 7:27:38 PM Adobe Lightroom 3[518] ServerProcess [AsyncDataServer( Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat )] ERRORSERVER<AsyncDataServer( Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat )>: A command threw an exception.
6/17/10 7:27:38 PM Adobe Lightroom 3[518] ServerProcess [AsyncDataServer( Lightroom 3 Catalog.lrcat )] ERROR Error: ?:0: attempt to perform arithmetic on field '?' (a nil value)
6/17/10 7:27:38 PM Adobe Lightroom 3[518] Error initializing alternate universe. bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)
System:
MacBook Pro Core2Duo 2.1Ghz 3GB RAM, 500GB Drive.
Initially Mac OS 10.5.8, but I tried upgrading to 10.6.3 and 10.6.4 (no luck).
Library: 21,000 photos
Other things I've tried:
Trashing all LR3 prefs, caches (running YASU), LR preview caches, plists, extensions, reinstalling, restarting -- no luck
Noticed it was copying the LR1 prefs plist, so I archived that. LR3 generated a new pref, but no help
Downloaded LR2 Demo, upgraded LR1 Catalog to LR2 Catalog (which works perfectly, no issues), and then LR2 Cat -> LR3 -- no luck
Checking integrity of Catalog in LR1 and LR2 (no problems) and LR3 when upgrading (no problems)
LR3 runs fine on an empty catalog and if I point it at my photo folder and import everything, it's ok (with none of my 3 years of modifications of course).
Is my only option to write out LR1 data to sidecar files and then setup a new Catalog in LR3?

Well, on top of having full access to the photo files, LR obviously has proper permissions to affect the files it generates in the AppSupport>Adobe>Lightroom folder, the Caches>Lightroom folder, the Pictures>Lightroom folder and the Preferences> folder, otherwise it wouldn't be able to build a new catalog, new prefs, new caches and so forth when I generate a new empty catalog.
I really doubt this is a permissions voodoo issue or a monitor profile issue.
LR3 works fine with a brand new catalog (and all the same Photo files).
LR1 and LR2 have absolutely no problem with my catalog and photo files.
LR2 upgrades my LR1 Catalog without issue.
LR3 fails with my upgraded catalog (and all the same photo files)
Unless I'm missing something in my logic tree here, it seems to me this is obviously a problem with LR3 upgrading my Catalog.
Other people's catalogs upgrade fine, and that's dandy, but my catalog doesn't upgrade AND it fails with exactly the same error message every time in the Console (See original post), which seem to be related to some internal db issue, dividing by zero, nil values.
Something ain't being handled right by LR3 that previous versions of LR had no problem with.

TS1702 Refund for non-functioning app - Jumsoft Money

I am using Jumsoft Money - i have bought the Mac version plus iphone app plus iPad app. A big investment.
The recent program update has rendered the apps useless - everybody is complaining but Jumsoft is being totally unresponsive: how can I get my money returned?

If you've contacted the developer and not a had a reply from them then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that app and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, and then Purchases, Billing & Redemption.

How To Get Refund Non-functioning App

The I Swipe Ruler is not accurate and does not repeat at all (that is everything a measuring device needs to do). Below is the response from the developer, but I don't know who to contact at Apple to get a refund to my account. It is only $0.99 but at this point it is the principle of the matter more than the money.
There is a junk app out there sold by Apple that costs a buck but no way to get a refund that I know of. I tried the apple phone number who sent me to the itunes store where I got the apple phone number in the first place. When I go to itunes, click on all of the support links all I get are circular links bringing me back to where I started. Can someone tell me how to get my $0.99 returned please?
E-mail from developer...
Hi, sorry to hear that.
Instructions are in the app itself, I'm planning to upload a video demo for that when I'll have time.
You are right that the app have a small inaccuracy, if you want more accurate one you can use my app I-ruler its free!
Mostly it depends on your iDevice (on new iPhone it works best).
If you really don't like this app please contact apple and say you download that app accidentally and you contact me for approval of a full refund.
Again I'm really sorry for your bad experience.
Have a good week,
Idan.

WAKE UP APPLE. SpotLight & Time-Machine effectively non-functioning after 10.7.5 combo update

I have just done a complete clean restore from Snow Leopard DVD, doing all its Updates. Then, installed Lion from App store and did the 10.7.5 Combo update. (All that took 2 days).
Time-Machine and Spotlight non functioning....
Turned off Spotlight and Time-Machine got my apps & data back...
Turned off Time-Machine and turned on Spotlight - nothing.
Followed every combination of the many many helpful tips in this discussion group (involving Onyx, Terminal, Console, Privacy, removing all external drives etc etc). Finally Spotlght began to index.....
3 days later, it was about 60% complete but slowing down. I rebooted (nothing else) and now Spotlight has restarted the Index once again and I have 3 weeks to wait now.... (Ihave about 600 Gbyte of data on a 1 Tbyte disk)
Many others have had similar problems
So clearly there is a significant bug in the system - with no sure fire workaround - and no apparent reaction from Apple staff about what they are doing or what sequence of actions one needs to take to resolve this issue.
This is sad - Apple is going the same way as IBM, DEC, Microsoft, Adobe - loading functioning systems with more and more bells and whistles until finally they trip over their own feet with the complexity of the whole works.
I feel entitled to moan - having owned nothing but Apple computers for 30 years.
(I tried to upgrade to Mountain Lion two weeks ago, but the App store installation just froze and Apple say the DVD drive is a dying species and will supply no disks or other media to do proper restores.....!)
ANY IDEAS ABOUT HOW TO WAKE APPLE PEOPLE UP!

Time Machine just doesn't seem to function with lion or Mountaain Lion. I don't know about Spotlight, but I use Intego Backup Assistant for my backup and its doing fine.

I am having serious issues trying to alter my old iCloud account with an old non-functioning email to my new apple id with a new email address. The message keeps coming up on all my apple products with my old email (which is not available anymore).

I am having serious issues trying to alter my old iCloud account with an old non-functioning email to my new apple id with a new email address. The message keeps coming up on all my apple products with my old email (which is not available anymore).

I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

[svn] 4159: Enhancement SDK-18016 - updating mxmlc' s Embed functionality to recognize .pbj files as precompiled Shader files.

Revision: 4159
Author: [email protected]
Date: 2008-11-21 13:06:29 -0800 (Fri, 21 Nov 2008)
Log Message:
Enhancement SDK-18016 - updating mxmlc's Embed functionality to recognize .pbj files as precompiled Shader files. This change still retains the old octet stream MIME type mapping to a ByteArray based class, but this change removes the hoop you have to jump through to embed a Shader. The new Embed usage should simply be as follows:
[Embed(source="TubeView.pbj")]
private var TubeViewClass:Class; //Subclass of flash.display.Shader
Also updating Embed MIME types to recognize .dfont files since these are supported by CFFFontManager.
Finally, updating FXG TextGraphic -> SymbolClass to use a simple FlexSprite instead of a Group. TextGraphic should now render at the right depth among SWF graphics primitives when compile time optimized FXG is used.
QE: Yes
Doc: If we've documented embedding .pbj, this is a simpler approach and represents a slight change in syntax.
Checkintests: Pass
Reviewer: Corey (Note he said he'll update ShaderFilter with a new property to accept a shader directly in a future check-in).

System Preference Panes non-functional (some)

I am "fixing" a friends MacBook Pro as a favour, and she's getting exactly what she paid for. It may be a few years old - not sure. It's running Snow Leopard, 10.6.8, but I'm putting it in this more general section because it may not be SL-specific.
A few of the System Preferences panes don't work. A message comes up which simply says "non-functional" or something like that. Specifically, the ones whcih don't work are:
Desktop and ScreenSaver
Spotlight
Energy Saver
Background: she forgot her password, and this is on a computer which was formerly someone else's. I couldn't even get the thing to the login screen, so something else was wrong besides her password, but I had her gray Snow Leopard installation disks, so got through the re-install process, made a new User for myself, as Administrator, and was then delighted to find that all of her data was still intact. I had to add myself in to the permissions on her UserID. I made a new user for her as well, because we still didn't have her own original password, and I looked around but couldn't find it. I copied all of her data over to her new UserID.
I also did all Updates, plus tried a 10.6.8. combo update.
Then I made an error. The former owners UserID was also still there. We couldn't log on as her either, without her password, but I figured that we didn't need that anymore, checked with the current owner first, and deleted the original User (and renamed the computer). I cannot reconstruct in my mind whether the System Preferences panes malfunction occurred before or after deleting the original User.
There is other minor wonkiness, but basically the machine is running and the data has been preserved (and now backed up). But one thing at a time: I've reinstalled the OS a couple of times, without improvement. I tried to upgrade to Mavericks, but after downloading, it told me that this computer could not be upgraded (without saying why not).
I haven't found any plist files which look relevant. I did more 2 of them out of HD-Library-Preferences, without any effect, so put them back. I find the Preference Panes in System-Library-PreferencePanes, but didn't see anything to do about that. The offending panes look like they're at least present.
Is there something simple I'm missing? Can I get those panes back?
Thank you.
Charles

Macbook pros need to be at least 2009 for 13" and 2007 for 15" and 17" to run Mavericks. see system requiements.
At this point, the easiest solution will be to make your backups current, then wipe the drive and do a clean install of the system. That means more work reinstalling the backed-up data (you only want to restore data and third-party apps, not any of the system components), but it makes sure you get a clean, working copy of the system.

Home Page Search Is Non-Functional / Not Possible to Restore Previous Session

After the latest update (to version 29), Firefox's default home page search bar has been completely non-functional. Whether I type enter or press Search, nothing happens. Another (possibly related) problem is that the "Restore Previous Session" button is never present. I also cannot restore the previous session by clicking on the History option (it is always greyed out).

I had this and other problems with v29. But after a while everything was working
again, I hope. BTW; 
I found that after Firefox v29, a LOT of my settings and add-ons were changed /
reset. Try this;
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
 While you are in safe mode; 
'''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''. 
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Check ALL of your setting. Then restart.

Wired interface non-functional

So I have a most unusual problem with a mac mini server that is driving me banana's that I hope someone in the Apple community has run into, and found a decent solution..
The mac mini (2.3GHz quad core i7, late 2012) is running 10.9 and server 3.0.1. I did an upgrade from 10.8 (and whatever the previous version server was)..
Since then the wired ethernet interface (en0) literally stopped working. (Links up, but no connectivity.. no ping, it does not even send an ARP)
Data points about the problem.
- It worked flawlessly up until the upgrade to 10.9.
- wireless interface is still fine, static or dhcp.
- The IP is statically configured via System preferences - Network.
- ifconfig in terminal show NO IPADDRESS assigned to the interface.
- if I reconfigure the interface to DHCP, it will not receive an IP and ends up with an APIPA address..
- if I go into terminal and 'ifconfig en0 down' then 'ifconfig en0 <IP> up' the interface works again until restart. It will also correctly display the IP in terminal.
- If I reset, it goes back into this same state (network preferences shows proper config, ifconfig does not, and the interface is non functional)
- If I then go to cli, and manually ifconfig down then up, all is good again.. Doing so from system prefs has no affect..
Here is where it gets really interesting, and why I am convinced this is a software issue.. I did a clean install of 10.9 and Server on an external USB disk, and things work exactly as expected if I boot from that Volume.. If I boot from the internal drive, Its in the broken state again..
This absolutelty tells me its some kind of software issue, and I am out of ideas short of wiping the internal drive, and reloading all the data from scratch..
Anyone else run into this? If yes, were you able to fix it without wiping/reloading?

First, thank you for taking the time to respond and offering great ideas..
I'd delete the interface & recreate it.
In 'System Preferences > Network tab' select the ethernet, click the - button. Then add it again. Reboot & see if it has any effect.
- Had no affect.. More accurately, it works the same as doing ifconfig down/up in cli, where the interface will work again until the next reboot.
See what appears in Console (Spotlight search for it) in the 'All messages" section when you remove connect the ethernet.
- Log messages are below.. Interestingly, I do not get the failure messages that I have highlighted in red on another machine that is is also running 10.9, with server loaded.

Have you tried changing the port on the switch it is connected to?
- Yes, for ease of testing I have it plugged directly into my MacBook Pro (I also tried new cable first )
Does safe mode have any effect?
- No, Same results.
Again, booting the machine from a clean install on a USB disk, does not show the issue.. I’ve got a lot of data on the machine, so I am doing anything I can to avoid wiping and reloading it all.. Ive added the output of etrecheck, in case its of any help.

Back button is premanently greyed-out and non-functional

I have tried all of the suggested fixes: disabling add-ons and extensions, deleting and re-installing the program, etc... but the back button remains non-functional, even on safe mode and after the last few updates. I cannot use the browser until this problem is fixed, and will continue to use Chrome until it is (even though I hate it and really miss Firefox). Funny thing is, it only happens on my Macbook Pro, running the latest version of Snow Leopard... it doesn't happen on my i7 iMac, running the same version of Snow Leopard.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, and have a great day,
-Jim

Hi,
Check the Font AppleGothic.ttf is active and validates using the Font Book app.
if you have to change anything restart the Mac.
If this is not the issue go to ~/Library/Preferences and find com.apple.ichat.plist and Drag it to the Trash and then restart Messages.
The above reply in another thread solved my issue! Namely that my apple gothic font was disabled, breaking the entire Messages app.

I have a long, long list of broken actions and missing functions with this 'new' version of Keynote.
However, to keep it as brief as possible:
In Mavericks, Keynote previews dissolves fine. On play they are non-functional. Completely and utterly broken;
Delays of 0.5 sec on preview turn into 10 seconds on play;
Audio is now out of sequence;
I have been a Keynote evangelist over Powerpoint since the first iteration. Taught many people to use it well. But right now, this version is not a professional product, barely an anateur product, since it has thelook and feel of an Alpha release.
So my question: how can I go back to Keynote '09?

Thanks.... I read that a while back. However, six months is a long time to be without a professional tool such as this. I cannot imagine what the programmers were thinking as they sent this out for beta testing. There is no way this was a considered release. It had to have been rushed. And badly.
For example: Build markers appear to be missing; 'ready to advance' cannot be found; and the 'customise presenter display' isn't there; even the 'open existing presentation' button, on app launch is gone. Seriously?
Since I wrote my earlier post, I've tested 6.0.1 further. It also apparently freezes [and requires a force quit] when you attempt to update from an older version and resave.
The release of a redesigned Keynote for Mavericks with this level of non-functionality is problematic at best and shockingly bad from Apple. I use this application a lot. A lot. And I think this is the worst update/redesign release I can ever remember from Apple.... and they've released some stinkers.
And they're going to take up to SIX months to fix this shambles? Good grief!! What a mess.

Ver33 Unresponsive Script popup is NON FUNCTIONAL

My continuing problems with getting FF to Restore Session are here:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1022861?esab=a&s=&r=0&as=s
Using Safari to send this. FF is locked up again...
Went Not Responding on yet another tab. This one said "waiting for" server for a long time, then it changed to "connected to"
Then the Unresponsive Script popup appeared -- but as always, it is NON FUNCTIONAL. None of the 3 buttons work. None are blue.
I'm letting FF sit there for a while to see if the damn button ever turns blue...

Coherence Warning Causing our production managed servers down/non-functional

Dear Legends,
We are facing a number of "Coherence Warning" and we came to know that one issue was in Cluster the servers are starting in Multicast even it has been set to Unicast and after an SR with ORACLE they suggested to add WKA host to be added with the startup scripts. We added and closely monitoring the servers continuously through the weekend, as usual the servers went non-functional in every 5 - 6 days.
This is in our HOST1 where Admin and Managed Server1(soa-server1)
-Dtangosol.coherence.wka1=soams1.com
-Dtangosol.coherence.wka2=soams2.com
-Dtangosol.coherence.localhost=soams1.com
This is in our HOST2 where Managed Server2(soa-server2)
-Dtangosol.coherence.wka1=soams1.com
-Dtangosol.coherence.wka2=soams2.com
-Dtangosol.coherence.localhost=soams2.com
We were closely looking into the logs and it says

What would be the reason even after adding the wka?
1. But still in logs while starting up am able to see the "-Dtangosol.coherence.clusteraddress=227.7.7.9 -Dtangosol.coherence.clusterport=9778". Is this the issue?
2. Or Else I need to add the "-Dtangosol.coherence.localport.adjust=true -Dtangosol.coherence.localport=8089 -Dtangosol.coherence.wka1.port=8089 -Dtangosol.coherence.wka2.port=8089" ?
Any kind of help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Karthik

Just updated my3gs, when I try to open a non Apple app it closes immediately, also, my camera app does the same, thought it was an Apple app?

Hi there, I cannot open my non Apple apps or camera function after an update last night, any ideas ?

First try resetting your phone:
Press the Home button & Sleep/Wake button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.
This will not touch any data or settings.

10.6.8 update added a non functioning app...
