Aperture 2 Hangs on Launch!

As my machine model shows, Aperture 2 is as far as it will ever be able to upgrade, so I'm stuck with whatever latest release there is for Aperture 2.
After I've started a resource-intensive task, and sometimes when I haven't, when I try and launch Aperture, I'll get as far as the license startup window, and that's where it'll hang. Aperture starts out grabbing the large percentage of resources it needs at startup, and then drops to almost none at all.
Activity monitor doesn't show it as, "not responding," and neither does the Force Quit window. To get Aperture to start up again, I basically have to shut my whole machine down and restart.
If this happened only during processor intensive tasks, I'd understand (although it was never a problem in the same scenarios in the past), but now it's even after those processes are finished, shut down, and the system resources are available for use once again.
Is this due to a recent Pro Application update or something? I wouldn't put it past Apple to disallow their flagship apps to run poorly by not letting them start at all, but hello! This is an old PPC machine; they're expected to be slower than usual.
Any ideas out there?

Aperture has a nasty habit of 'pretending to hang' I've seen regular instances of this, especially with libraries that are large or are being opened after a crash or a large import/upgrade from previous versions of aperture.
Activity drops to about .5% and activity monitor reports that application is not responding but aperture is infact working. Look at your disk activity and you will see it is 'ticking up' slowly. I'd call it a bug... Bit it eventually starts up fine. Patience is key! I'd just walk away for a day sometimes to let it sort itself out. I find that unless Aperture EXPLICTLY crashes, with the crash error report, it means it's slowly working it's way thru problems. Open up console and see if you can identify the issues it is dealing with under the 'all messages' option.
I also suspect that all the error reporting aperture puts into the logs slows down things even more.

  • Aperture Hanging in Books

    I upgraded to Leopard a few weeks ago and was using Time Machine and included Aperture backups while Aperture was running. I've since read that there's a problem with this, so I stopped Time Machine backups of my Aperture Library.
    But now, every time I try to edit text on a page of a book, Aperture hangs. If I type 25 characters, for example, it will lag behind... showing one character every 5 MINUTES or so until it catches up with my typing... which would take about two hours for the 25 characters. I have to force quit. I've tried restarting and repairing permissions. No help.
    Do I have a corrupt library? If so, what do I do? I have 3 vaults, all created in the last day or two.

    Delete Aperture, open App Store > Purchases and download Aperture. This should fix your issue

  • Aperture Won't Launch With 2 Video Cards

    I use 3 monitors with my G5 Dual 2.5GHz for running a number of programs simultaneously and also for Final Cut Pro editing. In the center is an Apple 23" HD Cinema Display. On the left is an Apple 15" DVI flat screen and on the right is an Apple 15" VGA flat screen.
    Aperture will not launch at all. It gives me an error stating that the video card is not supported. The main card is a GeForce 6800 GT DDR that has the 23" and the 15" DVI connected. The problem is the Radeon 7000 that has the 15" VGA hooked up. I took the Radeon out and Aperture ran fine so I know where the problem lies.
    Obviously I cannot keep taking the Radeon in an out of the G5 whenever I want to use different programs. Does anyone have any suggestions? I hope Apple will have an update where you can tell Aperture what monitors to use or video card to ignore. That should alleviate the problem. Is there a way of using Terminal to turn off the Radeon which would allow Aperture to run? I just bought this program and was all excited to start using it. Now I'm bummed. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Power Mac G5 Dual 2.5GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Maybe there is a way to turn the Radeon 7000 on and off through Terminal? Some process I can quit to run Aperture on the 2 monitors connected to the nVidia GeForce 6800GT and then restart that process when I'm done so I can go back to using 3 monitors?
    Thanks.

    The Final Cut installation corrupted your system library. This cannot be fixed by reinstalling Aperture.
    The problem is, that a framework in your Library is missing, the PluginManager Framework

  • Just downloaded Firefox 6.0 and have restarted 4 plus times, but it continues to hang while launching. I cannot open new windows, change any settings, or do anything but Force Quit. I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.8. How do I get past this hang?

    Long story short: Simply get CC for teams. At 500 bucks a year it's a steal and those 5 licenses in the base package (or was it 10 even?) cover all your computers, at least the 3 ones you mentioned. For system requirements refer to the individual product pages.

  • Aperture won't launch on 15" Retina MBP

    I recently moved to a Retina 15" MacbookPro. Installed Aperture (app store), and it worked fine with Lion. Upgraded to ML, and now Aperture won't launch. I read the thread having to do with a conflict with Final Cut Express. That's not me. No FCE (or and Final Cut apps) loaded on this machine.
    I've removed all existing Aperture libraries (to force the creation of a new library on launch).
    I've re-downloaded Aperture from the app store, to make sure I have a nice clean version.
    It won't launch.
    Anyone else out there having this problem?
    I suppose I could try re-installing OSX 10.8, but that seems extreme.
    Thanks in advance,
    Chris

    More info. Some good. Some not so.
    Right-clicked iPhoto library in finder and chose Aperture as app to luanch, and Aperture opened it right up.
    Tried switching to an Aperture library. Crash.
    Repeated launch of iPhoto library.
    Tried creating new Aperture library. Crash.
    Right-clicked an Aperture library and chose Aperture as app to open, and Aperture opened it up (I think I'd tried this prior to posting, without success, but can't be 100% sure of that)
    At any rate, the library I want is now open, so I should just go get some work done, but I'd appreciate any insights into what might be going on.
    Thanks,

  • IPhoto 9.3 hangs on launch

    Hi,
    I have a problem opening iPhoto and I've exhausted every diagnostic measure I can think of.
    The problem is that when I launch iPhoto it hangs.
    If I open it normally it tells me I need to update my library and presents a dialog with 'cancel' or 'update'. At that point it hangs- I can't click either of the options.
    If I open it holding down OPTION then it asks me what library I want to use.... and hangs without letting me select an option.
    If I open it holding down CMD-OPTION then it presents me with a set of diagnostic options...and hangs before I can select any of them.
    I have tried repairing permissions & verifying the disk- no problems found and still hangs on launch
    I have tried removing the plist preference file out of the ~/Library/Preferences folder- still hangs on launch
    I have tried deleting the iPhoto 9.3 app from the Apps folder and reinstalling it using the Mac App Store- still hangs on launch.
    There's no message in the console about iPhoto crashing. It's obviously not a photo library problem as it crashes before it even opens the library and it can't be the app itself as I've re-downloaded it. I presume something external to iPhoto is having an issue but I have no way of finding out what that is.
    Anyone got any good diagnostic steps I can take?

    Hi, not sure if your able to help me, but I have the same problem with iPhoto.  I suspect, like u did, it hass something to do with another app.  Mail crashes every time I try and open it too.  alas restarting my mac has not helped.  Any ideas???

  • Developer Server 6.0 hanging when launched from Netscape 4.6

    Hi, simple question to ask about OAS and Developer Server.
    My Developer Server 6.0 hanging when launched from Netscape 4.61,
    I am currently running...
    Pentium PII 200Mz running NT sp5
    Forms Server version 6.0.5.31.0 (Patch 3 applied)
    OAS version 4.0.7.1.0 (Patch applied)
    Jinitiator 1.1.7.18
    Netscape 4.61 browser
    I have all the latest versions of everything that is available,
    I have followed the instructions.
    I successfully connect to the OAS admin utility and have setup
    all the virtual to physical directory mappings under the default
    listener www. I successfully start all website OAS services.
    I have Forms server successfully started up as a process
    listening on port 9000.
    I have two statics html files created:
    a) with Jinititator 1.1.7.18
    The very first time I connected to this static html file it
    installed Jinitiator as expected. The Forms server splashscreen
    then appears.
    Jinitiator then starts up successfully, no errors appear in the
    Java console. This has proved I am talking to the listener and
    my virtual directory mappings are working.
    At this point there is a lot of disk activity and then all
    stops, the splashscreen remains and appears in the discussion
    area:
    FRM-9999 cannot access "koala.ilaco.gov.bo:9000" and
    a series of java exceptions
    I am pointing to the correct java directories (I think)
    b) with out Jinitiator
    When I try to call using URL with Netscape 4.61 I get a
    message on the status bar saying...
    Applet oracle.forms.engine.Main class oracle/forms/engine/Main
    got a security violation: Method verification error
    Can you help ?
    If you know the answer, please let me know as soon as
    posible.
    Thanks for the answer....

    : : Bart.
    I respond your email, with my actual server configuration my
    problem is now: I get the splash screen and after form is hanged.
    My server configuration is:
    Compaq PC, with Pentium II, the software is:
    - Windows NT, with Service Pack 5
    - Oracle Application Server, v.4.0.7.1.0 Enterprice Edition,
    pathset 1
    - Developer Server v.6 patchset 3
    - My browser in this machine is Netscape 4.61
    - Jinitiator 1.1.7.18 is also used.
    My developer server is installed and running on the same machine
    that OAS is. I am using other browser in other machine (IE5)
    and trying to connect to the OAS on the first machine.
    My problems begin when I launch ifsrv60.exe. I copied
    ifwcm60.dll v.6.0.5.0.2, and other files required in the %
    ORACLE_HOME%\bin
    I forced listener Developer Server Port (
    c:\orant\bin\ifsrv60.exe -listen port=9000 )
    Now, I can connect with this process, with the following line:
    telnet koala 9000. The listener is working now.
    I tried to work with my (NonCartride-static html)forms60 form on
    WEB without Jinitiator, but I couldn't.
    With Netscape, in the status bar: Applet
    oracle.forms.engine.Main can3t stop ERROR
    With IE5, I get the splash screen and after the forms is hanged.
    If I use Jinitiator:
    With Netscape, in the status bar: Oracle Jinitiato: applet
    oracle.forms.engine.Main inited then form is hanged.
    With IE5, I get the splash screen and after that, the screen
    freezes and looks like the form is hanged.
    Any further suggestions on this?

  • Aperture hangs on import from iPhone or camera

    Since a few weeks I can't import from my iPhone or digital camera anymore.
    If I try to import Photos from my iPhone or camera Aperture hangs forever. The Photos should be imported as referenced ones to a folder on a network share on a Mac OS X Server. This works fine, if the Picture source is i.e. a memory card or a HDD. And it has been working with the iPohne and camera before.
    What happens is, that Aperture creates a file like "..importing.IMG0815.JPG" with 0 Bytes in the target folder. And than it hangs.
    From this point on there is a permanent network traffic, and reasonable CPU load on both Macs (the kernel_task on the client and the AppleFileServer task on the Server). If I delete the "..importing.IMG0815.JPG" file it is instantly recreated. This continues even if I kill the Aperture application. The only way to stop this is to unmount the Network Volume.
    Does anyone has an idea what this may cause?

    sizzling badger wrote:
    Aperture, Lightroom etc. are all designed to make use of direct import. They are safer than copying your files via the OS tools for the simple reason they access the cards read-only. If you use OS tools to copy then you are accessing the cards read-write which is far more dangerous if something goes wrong.
    Culling your images during import saves time and disk space also. Copying your images directly and then importing is a WASTE OF YOUR TIME.
    We disagree. Although such apps are indeed "designed" for direct import, my empirical observations since the earliest days of digital imagery have been that interacting indirectly using an app like Aperture is much, much less stable than directly interacting via Finder when properly done. One can peruse literally hundreds of digital image threads including this one to see overwhelming real-world evidence of what I am talking about.

  • Organizer hangs on launch

    Just installed PSE10 on Win7 Pro 64-bit.  I can launch Organizer one time, and then subsequent launches hang mid-launch.  It appears that the previous session didn't close as Organizer still shows up in Task Manager.  If I end task, I can then launch Organizer one time before it starts to hang again.  I've turned off all the auto-analyze features and also deleted my preferences (psa and status files), but problem persists.  I'm using Trend Micro Security Agent (Online)...could this be causing the problem?

  • Photoshop cs5 hangs on launch when loading brushes

    Photoshop cs5 hangs on launch when loading brushes.  I have to do a hard reboot and reset the preferences.  In the past 2 days I have had to do this 3 times.  I have the latest drivers.  below is my hardware.  I am also running lightroom.  I did not have this issue until after I installed the latest updates from the adobe website. Does anyone have any information on a fix for this problem  Thank You for your time.
    Nancy Cuppy

    That's interesting...and troublesome.
    I did some research on it this morning and found it was happening dell computers (maybe because there are lots of Dells!) and there is no one answer, as there is no common connections.
    Have you rebooted again after the f8>last known...step? Does it boot ok? One problem is that check disk did not clear after running and there is a fix for that.
    Did your computer come with Win7 installed? If so, I would contact that computer's support and see what they say.
    That it started ok in "last known" is apparently unique as I found no reference to that. Normally one goes to Safe Mode and see if it starts ok, and if it does, then steps to clear the restart problem can be implemented.
    The fact that no problems showed up at the first check is a good sign.
    I hesitate to offer any other solutions as there are several, including actual Registry mods but that I wouldn't do.
    Perhaps others here who experienced this as well could jump in.

  • CS3 Contribute hangs on launch.

    Hi,
    Our dept. supports several users who use Contribute CS3 on a
    daily basis. I've been working with one user who has been having
    issues launching Contribute. Upon launch, the splash screen will
    show and then hang. On occassion, when he tried to connect to a
    site, it will hang. This is an intermittent problem. When it does
    hang on launch, the process may or may not be shown in task
    manager. When it doesn't, the only option is to reboot the pc.
    I have been troubleshooting the issue, but haven't found
    anything as of yet. The one thing that I have noticed, is that when
    Contribute launches, there is a message on the tool bar that says
    "connecting to server". Can anyone out there tell me why it's
    connecting to a server and what server that may be on launch? Is it
    the server the end user has configured, is it checking for updates
    from an Adobe server? etc... I know Contribute is a different beast
    than DW, but at least in DW, you have to choose a site to connect
    to first.
    Since this happens on launch and also when he tried to
    connect to his server, I'm thinking the problem is related. Is
    there a way to stop the "connecting to server" on launch, to try
    and determine if that is indeed the problem?
    Thanks in advance for any advice, thoughts, suggestions, etc

    I've found further data on this problem, which may or may not
    be related.
    I'm having a recent problem with Adobe Contribute CS3 for the
    Mac. It appears that adobe Contribute CS3 will slow down to a crawl
    and become unresponsive if it cannot connect to Adobe's servers on
    startup. Even if I blow out all the preferences and support files,
    "starting fresh" with no connections, this hang occurs.
    Netstat shows:
    Active Internet connections (including servers)
    Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address (state)
    tcp4 0 0 64.170.98.99.49645 192.150.18.101.80 ESTABLISHED
    And top shows:
    PID COMMAND %CPU TIME #TH #PRTS #MREGS RPRVT RSHRD RSIZE
    VSIZE
    1221 top 3.9% 0:00.34 1 18 29 684K 188K 1276K 18M
    1211 Contribute 98.7% 0:58.77 12 43267+ 477 27M+ 29M 54M+
    444M
    even after Contribute has been running for several minutes.
    It seems that Contribute tries to connect to Adobe, and Adobe
    hangs, and therefore Contribute hangs.
    Is anyone else experiencing this or does anyone have any
    insight on how to resolve this?
    Starting up "offline" is fast, with no problems. This only
    occurs in "online" mode.
    Thanks!

  • IWeb Hangs on launch

    Hi all-and Happy Holidays.
    Just got a new iMac and been trying to use iWeb, but it hangs on launch every time. It gets to loading the templates and I get the beach ball spinning and have to force a quit.
    Any clues? Here's my sys. configuration:
    2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    1GB memory
    250GB hard drive1
    ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT with 128MB memory
    Thanks for any help

    Quit iWeb, go to Home Folder/Library/Preferences and delete the com.apple.iWeb plist file and then relaunch.
    If that doesn't do it, repeat the above, do a restart of your Mac and run Disk Utility to repair permissions and try again.

  • MAX hangs on launch

    Recently, for no apparent reason (no recent software or hardware install/uninstalls) I found that MAX 3.0 was hanging whenever I tried to access the "Devices and Interfaces". I tried swapping around the test equipment, stripping down to a single instrument, and even swapping GPIB-USB-B units. I found that "Interactive Control" worked fine, but nothing would make MAX work.
    I uninstalled all my NI software, rebooted, reinstalled, and now MAX hangs during launch; it doesn't even get to the main interface window.
    Are there files or registry keys that may be corrupt? System is Win2K SP4.

    Hi jsproul,
    Try downloading the latest NI-488.2 drivers from
    http://digital.ni.com/softlib.nsf/websearch/74B5B3FF1122C90F86256F4F00781783?opendocument&node=132060_US
    This version installes version 3.1 of MAX. Be sure to uninstall your current version of NI-488.2 first and that MAX 3.0 is uninstalled.
    Good luck,
