Aperture does not launch

Brand new iMac, aperture fresh from app store. Will not launch. Same sort of problem as "Firestarter13". Haven't got a photo library yet. Done all suggested things -not working. Any ideas?

includes a crash log.
Unfortunately, that is not a crash report - it is a hang report, and it does not tell me much.
Done all suggested things -not working. Any ideas?
What exactly have you tried already? What version of Aperture? What version of MacOS x 10.7? What kind of Mac? How much RAM and free disk space do you have?
What does the Console window show, when you try to launch Aperture? Do you see any disgnostic messages?

The "edit in" does not launch if I make any develop changes. I am using LR 5.6 and all of my plug ins are properly installed, up to date and were working just fine. Edit in does work if I reset the image or load an unmodified DNG.

I am using LR5.6 on a Windows 7 machine with plenty of memory. LR, CS5 and all of my plug ins have been working just fine. Tonight I've found that if I make any kind of significant adjustments to an image, and the go to "Edit in.." that function does not launch. I can use the Edit in command on an unmodified image, or if I reset the modified image. I have the issue with all of my plug ins, including Photoshop, all of the Nik software, RadLab, and OnOne. I believe that all of the plug ins are current. I've been working with them yesterday and I had no issue. I cannot recall anything that has changed since then, and I have not installed any software. I'm at a loss!! Please help!

I have traced the problem to a corrupted profile. When I captured the images in question, I also used Color Cherckr to create a profile for processing. When I apply that profile to the adjustments I make, I can no longer "Edit In". If I use another profile, even one that I created using Color Checkr at a different point in time, I don't have the issue. Something seems to have corrupted the new profile. I will re-create the profile and see if the issue is resolved.

HT1941 Hi i have recently updated my version of iTunes in order to sync music from my macbook air to my new ipod shuffle. After a successful installation the application does not launch and I am unable to oepn iTunes of access my music! Someone please hel

Hi,
I have recently updated my iTunes to the latest version in order to sync music onto my new ipod shuffle. However after a successful installation the application does not launch or open? There are no error messages. The application is just unresponsive.
I have already checked the compatibility with Safari, my operating system and checked my firewall is not blocking it - all is fine.
Does anyone have any other resolutions?
Many thanks

Hi Carolyn,
Thank you for your time and response. The trouble is I am unable to launch iTunes? I have restarted my macbook air a number of times to try and initiate the application but the issue persists and the application remains unresponsive. Will not launch?
Thanks

Image cannot be rendered because Aperture does not support image format

Dear all,
I have installed apple Aperture 3.03 and the complete Nick software plug-in selection:
• Dfine 2.0 for Aperture
• Color Efex Pro 3.0 Complete for Aperture
• Silver Efex Pro for Aperture
• Sharpener Pro 3.0 for Aperture
• Viveza 2 for Aperture
History
Until a few days ago the system was running ok / no notable issues on performance. / all pug in seem to run good / no issues. Also
• I Run OSX10.4/ Aperture 3.03 ( 32Bit mode)
• My library contains just over 10000 images / approximately 140GB
• I have recently updated the OSX software update including the security update 2010-005
• as well as the Snow leopard graphic update 1.0
• As far as I am aware all updates where automatically recommended by OSX Software update ( no manual intervention).
• As far as I remember after update the system still was running ok but honestly I can not tell you how many times the Nick Plug in started out of Aperture.
After all, Several times I continued using the system / still no noticeable problem until the following was happening:
Problem:
After creating with "PT gui" a panoramic image File type: "TIF" Pixel size: 5112 × 2556 (13,1 MP) I imputed this file in to Aperture (drag and drop). During the attempt to eddied this file with "Nick Define 2.0" the system was hamming up No response for several minutes from Dfine 2.0 / Aperture" At the end I had to "force quit" the applications.
After the consequential reopening of Aperture I tried again to eddied images with any Nick software Plug-In but each time Aperture prepares any image previously stored in my Library ti open the Pug in the following Error message appears:
*"This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support the image format"*
Currently non of my previously in the library safed images can be opened in a Nick software Plug-In this applies to all file types I have tied " Raw, tif, jpg"
• I am still able to eddied normally with Aperture ( so far I do not find any other issue)
• A newly imported Raw image after being taken with my EOS 5D can be edited in the completed Nick software Plug-In selection ( so far I do not find any other issue)
The following actions have been taken to overcome the issue (all not successful):
• I restored my Library out of my back Up ( to previous time of event ( no Time machine back up)
• Uninstallation of all Nick software Plug-In selection
• Uninstallation Aperture Reinstallation Aperture / Nick software Plug-In selection
• Repairing the library ( all three possibilities)
• installation of latest EOS utilitys
Questions
• Can you support me to overcome this issue?
• Have you heard similar issues of Nick user Running the Aperture plug-ins?
For me it is really strange that even after replacing the the library in my normally not connect back up the problem still exists (this should be not affected by the event as the back up was not done any more) / new imported images are editable with the Plug-In.
I would be happy if you could support me in this issue.
Best regards,
Matthias
PS: I have reported this issue to Apple (via Aperture feedback) as well as contacted the Nick software support and currently waiting for feedback.

Dear Ma-Le / All
I have just had the same problem
I use
• Aperture 3.03 with a iMac 2.8 Intel Core 2 Duo with all files on external hard disks (mac extended fomat as apple suggests) with referenced masters.
• Camera Nikon D300, with probably 75,000+ images on 2 hard drives
• Photoshop CS2 with PhotoTools 2.5 plugin
This has been working perfectly until yesterday when the system froze when I was using PhotoTools 2.5 with Photoshop CS2 - as a result of which I resorted to a force quit.
Since then on most of my files it has not been possible to use an external editor.
A message appears saying: *Editing Error - This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support image format*.
The problem seems to apply to the attempted use of any external editor (including Noise Ninja)
The following have each been tried, all unsuccessfully:
- Using each of Aperture's library 3 first aid options
- Rebuilding directory using Diskwarrior
- Checking for virus using Virus Barrier X4
- Defragmenting library hard disk using TechTool pro
- Changing permissions settings
- Using Disk Utility first aid to repair permissions and checking main disk
- Removing some plist elements when open 'show package contents' of library
- Setting up a(n almost clean) new system, with newly loaded version of Aperture, with a new library from a vault saved prior to the crash when the problem first occured
Several things seem to me to be totally bizarre:
1 - The problem is the same on the other library hard disk which was not in use at the time
2 - The problem still occurs when a back up vault saved prior to this problem is loaded - using a new hard disk with a new system and a newly reloaded and upgraded Aperture software
3- The problem seems inconsistent. It appears to affect some photos but not all. Even from the same shoot, some photos can be edited using an external editor, whilst others cannot (but as far as i can tell most of the photos in a particular album seem to be consistently affected)
4- The only way around it seems to be if I import a new (copy image) from the original master. Then everything works ok, and I can successfully edit that copy image in photoshop / phototools plug-in.
I am beginning to wonder whether what has been corrupted is Aperture's ability to make copies from the master file which it then uses with the external editor (I have no real idea whether this is correct)
Does anyone have any ideas or solutions - or has anyone else been suffering a similar problem?
Eric
PS: As a professional photographer this problem is a really serious issue for me - and I really don't really want to go to Lightroom or Capture One

"Big Bridge" does not launch with Mini Bridge

When I open Photoshop and launch Mini-Bridge, it does not launch "big bridge." The littel wheel turns around and a note says "waiting for Bridge CS5," but Bridge CS5 never opens. The little wheel keeps turning around and keeps waiting and waiting. I have gone into settings and tried both settings. 1. Open Bridge automatically when Mini-Bridge starts. 2. Do not start Bridge until browse files is checked. On either setting, Bridge still will not launch. Does this call for a re-install of Photoshop? Need advice. Thanks

I have not kept up on this issue. There was quite a discussion on the topic in the Photoshop Forum when CS5 came out, but issues must have been resloved as have not see anythiing on it for awhile.
Make sure you have the latest Bridge and PS updates. The use the search fuction (many times google is faster) and read some of the replies.

ITunes 11.1.5 does not launch on Mac OS X 10.6.8

Just updated iTunes to 11.1.5, now it does not launch. Is it worth trying to fix, or better to try and install an earlier version?

Using Calendar client version 4.6 on Unix to connect to Calendar Server 4.0, I get a core dump and the client does not launch

I am using Communicator Pro with Enterprise Calendaring, Calendar client 4.6,
and when I attempt to launch it I immediately get a core dump and it does not
launch.
<P>
The 4.6 motif client is not able to run against the 4.0 Calendar Server.
It is strongly recommended that you use the 4.61 motif Calendar client (bundled with the 4.7
Communicator Pro release) or 4.51/4.52 against Calendar Server 4.0. There are
known problems when going offline while using the 4.5 client on any platform
against the 4.0 Server. Both the 4.51 Windows and the 4.52 motif clients have
repaired this problem.

You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Thx for your help, Bruce

When I print to PDF using Acrobat 11 Pro from any application the acrobat Reader does not launch automatically. Associations are correct. Happens from Chrome, IE, Word, Excel, Powerpoint. Previously had deskPDF installed but uninstalled correctly. Can't find a preference setting for the auto launch. Thx for your help, Bruce

A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

Lookout 6.1 build 27 OPCClient does not launch the Opto 22 OPC SEVER

In the same computer, with the same Lookout 6.1 a few weeks ago, I had communication between Opto 22 OPC Server and Lookout using the OPCClient in Lookout. Settings in OPCClient were for a really fast scanning rate (50 milliseconds) and de deadband was set to zero in order to see all the inputs changes with the best resolution. These I/O units are Opto PAC EB2 brains, and the OPC Server belongs to the suite of PAC 8.0 (I tried also 8.1) of Opto 22. The I/O Configuration and the OPC configuration was done with the same OPTO22 software version.This was a test done in order to see if I can get 20 samples per second from all the I/O's. It did go well, even a little faster than required. It was informed to my bosses, then I had the 'go' for the project I'm working on. That was the main concern of everyone here; the fast communication between Lookout an the Hardware.
The computer runs windows XP SP2, has two ethernet ports; one with dynamic IP address on motherboard (for the company network), and a PCI ethernet cad with a fixed IP address in the range of the IP addresses of the Opto 22 brains dedicated to talk to these I/O units.
I called first to the tech support of OPTO 22. They shown me how to double check and to launch manually the OPC Server, there is a tester software for it. The OPC Server was launched and I saw it in the task manager under processes tab.
When I create the object in Lookout, it does not see the server, neither launches the server. I can see the data members of the OPCClient, but I can not see the variables or tags from the server.
Again, it did work a few weeks before in the same PC, with the same Lookout and the same Opto 22 as a test. Now I need to add the OPCClient to my application and make the corresponding connections, but I can't.
This is becoming a kind of hurry, time is running and the application can not get to work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

When the OPC Client object is created, I can select the OPTO22OPCSever.2 in the dropdown list of servers. It is there, and the object can be configured normally. I must see in the object explorer (expanding the OPCClient object) the tags configured in OPTO 22 Server,but they are not there. The Client object only shows its data members. Once Lookout is open with the OPCClient, the task manager/services does not show Opto22OPCSever.exe running, that tells me that Lookout's client does not launch the server and that's why it does not show the tags configured in the server.
I have uninstalled Opto 22 software and re-installed, I called Opto 22 tech support and they shown me a way to launch manually the server, even how to monitor some of the values of its tags. I saw the Opto22OPCServer.exe in the processes list of the task manager, I read values of some tags with the OPC tester, To me, the server side is working fine.
Then, I installed Lookout .During this process there was an error 1922 and a message saying that files mssgl.mdf, mssgl.mdl, and mssgl.ldl are not found, These files must be located in C:\ Program Files\ National Instruments\Lookout 6.1\ Database. During the first installation of Lookout 6.1, I followed the instructions in the README file, where some specific commands must be typed in the run windows and executed to create the database properly. It was done, no errors were displayed during the first installation.
The thing is that this OPCClient/OPCServer DID WORK before. For some reason it does not work NOW.
this computer didn't have any previous version of Lookout installed, there is no possible old database messing here.
Again; the computer runs windows XP SP2, it has a dual core processor.

Aperture does not recognize that there are images to be imported on an SD card. My workaround is to copy the images from the ST card to a folder and then import the images from the folder. Aperture also imports incredibly slowly after the update to 3.4

Aperture does not recognize that there are images to be imported on an SD card. My workaround is to copy the images from the SD card to a folder and then import the images from the folder. Aperture also imports incredibly slowly after the update to 3.4

Check your Import settings in the Import Panel, i.e. all that might exclude the image type you want to import:
If you did not exclude any file types, and still Aperture will not import, remove your ImageCapture preferences fro your user library:
To remove the image capture preferences:
If Aperture is running, quit Aperture, and log off and on again.
Open your user library from the Finder's Go menu: Hit Command Shift G (⌘⇧G) and then type in: ~/Library/Preferences/ then hit return.
In the window that opens remove "com.apple.ImageCapture.plist"
and look into the subfolder "ByHost": if there are files named com.apple.ImageCapture something .plist remove them too.
then try again.
And if that still does not help, remove the Aperture preferences as well:
~/Library/Preferences/aperture.plist
Regards
Léonie
P.S. in MacOS Lion and later the user library ~/Library is hidden by default.
You can reveal it also from the Finder's "Go" menu:
Finder > Go, then hold down the options ⌥ key, until the Library appears in the drop-down menu, select it and open the Library folder. Then go to the "Preferences".

Clicking on program icon does not launch program

I just purchased my new 21.5" iMac and when clicking on an existing app, the app does not launch. I am using the new Magic Mouse; also, when hitting enter key on highlighted app it still does not launch. Eben if I hav e Pages launched and an open doc as an icon, clicking on the icon does not open it.
It worked very well under my MPB 17" using SL 10.6.2! What gives? Do I have to return this machine already?

OK. here goes: Most of the Apple Apps, either on the dock, in the Finder (in list view or any other view), or on the Desktop do NOT respond to double-clicks to get them going!
For example, I live on Preview, yet when I double-click a PDF file, nothing happens; Preview does not load and the document does not open. I can start the document by either holding down the Control key and Open with.....
I have owned six Apple computers during the past 8 years and have never come across such weird behavior! I am really not to bugged by this as this is with a brand new iMac 21" but it would be a shame to have to return this because of this odd behavior.
I have a template of Pages on my Destiop, yet I double-click on it nothing happens; Pages does not load nor does the document open.
Other Apps do start up normally.
I powered the machine down; I ran and fixed Permissions. I do not know what else to do. I know it cannot be the MM as it works flawlessly on everything else.

Unable to launch PSE12, I sign in, but app does not launch

I double click on the shortcut, I am asked to sign in and when I do, the box disappears and application does not launch.
I have updated the PSE using the Adobe updater, I cleared the preferences file and nothings.
Any suggestions?

If you launch the editor and organizer directly from the .exe/application files do they work?

Premier Elements 11 installed but does not launch

I installed premier elements 11, the installation did not have any problems, but when I click on the icon nothing happens. It does not give an error message, is does not try to do anything, it simply does not launch. I uninstall, turn off the norton software, did a clean boot to prevent other services to load, re-installed the software and the problem continues.
I have window 7 64 bits 8 gb memory, more than enough disk space. What else can be wrong that is preventing the application from launching?

Hi,
Could you please try the following solutions and see if any of these work:
1. Navigate to 'PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe' located inside:
    Win x64: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
    Win x32: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
     Right click on 'PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe' and select 'Run as Admin'
2. Just after this keep on pressing 'Ctrl+Alt+Shift' on Windows (or Command+Option+Shift on Mac). You will get a popup asking to delete Elements settings file. Click Yes.
If the above does not work, please try the following:
3. Please rename SLCache folder present at location "<root drive:>\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\SLCache"
Also please rename opm.db on your machine to resolve this issue @ <root drive>\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Now re-launch the application.
4. In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
5. Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
If none of these work, please let me know.
Regards,
vaishali

Desktop Icon does not launch program on Mac after download

Purchased from Adobe via internet. Akamai interface downloaded and then Photoshop Elements 11. Both icons on Mac desktop. Double clicking on PE 11 does not launch program. Is it fully downloaded? I get Read Me file in four languages as well as a PE 11 icon after double clicking the desktop icon.
Thanks

Thank you. The download directions did not include the part about double clicking the desktop Elements icon, double clicking the elements icon within the box that opened and then clicking on "install." Okay, so i am not computer savvy, but the directions gave the impression that the download was complete after following the supplied instructions. Who knew? I did not want to duplicate a download, so was apprehensive to take this action. Did it anyway out of frustration and it worked. Obviously, the application was not entirely downloaded. Now, i get to learn a whole new application as IPhoto bites! I spent hours and hours, days upon days scanning and editing old family photos in IPhoto only to learn that the program re-sorted my photo order when i tried to make copies for family. I lost my edits, lost my photo notes and had to retrieve my entire library before presenting several hundred multi generational family photos to everyone in my extended family! Hopefully, this application will be an improvement!
Thanks again for taking the time to respond!
