Aperture will not open -- at all!

Aperture has suddenly stopped opening. I mean completely.
The OPTION and OPTION/COMMAND attempts result in the same non-opening as just clicking the icon.
I have more than 20,000 photos, but have not had any problems in the six months or so that I have been using it.
I bought through the App Store, and updraded through the App Store when this problem started last weekend, with no change in the error message.
System software is also up-to-date.
(This may or may not be related to deleting an unused 'User'. It was completely empty and all my Aperture files and picture folders are still right where they should be, but chronologically I must admit a possible connection.)
Any help would be appreciated a lot!
All I get is the "Aperature cannot be opened because of a problem" box with the following:

I have to admit to being more than a little impressed with your troubleshooting and solution. Thank you.
My 'Versions' folder had a single file called 'Current'. I restored the entire 'Versions' folder from my Time Machine that included a 'Version A' and a 'Version B' and Aperture opened right up, immediately updating and converting everything to the latest version. Should I delete the A?
The only thing that seems to not be working now is PhotoStream. I have it on my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook working fine, so it may just need a little time to kick in.
Sorry I missed that earlier thread with the same problem; I did look, just not hard enough, I guess. Strange they should both show up the same day. And... I did not install any new software at all between the last time everything worked and this problem. Like I posted, deleting an unused USER was the only change to the system that I was aware of partaking in.
And as for the differences in my OS, I have manually updated those items on my profile. I assumed they updated automatically, but if they are supposed to, they didn't.
Things seem to be right-side up now, so off to the Apple site to cancel my Genius bar appointment for tomorrow. Thank you very, very much!
JSam

    Every time since I upgraded this  morning, attempting to open Aperture causes a crash. I upgraded to Aperture 3.4 this morning, and now it will not open at all! It crashes every time, and tries rebuilding the library and repairing most times. The Library open fine in Iphoto

    If you do not have the original install DVDs, use the Aperture Trial installer instead:
    Try if this download link for the trial version still works: if yes, you can unlock it with your serial number:

  • I have a macbook pro version 10.7.5 and my mailbox will not open at all and comes up with a quit message even though it is not open. how can i get into my account. it works on my iPhone an i have internet and all other functions working on my computer

    I have a macbook pro version 10.7.5 and my mailbox will not open at all and comes up with a quit message even though it is not open. how can i get into my account. it works on my iPhone and i have internet and all other functions working on my computer

    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 the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    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
    In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. I know the report is long. Please post all of it anyway.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • My itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    my itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible

    i think i might have a solution... i have windows vista and after i installed to latest itunes update everytime i tried to open it it would freeze. I tried everything, including uninstalling itunes and all of its components and reinstalled it numerous times. So i went to the itunes folder in my folders, not on itunes, and i deleted my itunes library and playlists. After that it worked just fine, all of my music was deleted but luckily i had my files saved elsewhere.
    I hope this helped! I know its frustrating and APPLE/ITUNES NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!!

  • TS1717 Started a software update this morning which didn't work.  Now Itunes will not open at all.  I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

    Started a Itunes software update this morning which didn't work.  Now Itunes will not open at all.  I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

    There are a couple of options that I know of to fix the issue.
    One is listed in this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/message/24606478#24606478 - and involves uninstalling iTunes and related components and then re-installing iTunes.  You will need to read the instructions in the thread to see the correct uninstall order.
    Second option is use System Restore to set your system back to a date prior to the iTunes update.  I did this before finding the thread mentioned above.
    Not sure exactly what the problem is but I know, after a search, that MSVCR80.dll was indeed already installed on my computer.

  • Itunes will not open at all

    hey guys,
    ever since I've reinstalled my pc with windows xp pro sp3, my itunes will not open at all.
    every time i click on itunes.exe it does not do anything. It does give me the hourglass icon as if my pc is working on it. but then it disappears without any itunes response.
    to fix this issue, I have tried any possible method that i could find on the internet. even called the support center but they were not able to help me either.
    I have tried to reinstall itunes *(no effect)*
    did something with the cryptographic something in the administrative tools menu *(no effect)*
    I have deleted the itunes installer cache *(no effect)*
    I installed any older versions,( btw 7 does not work either)but after updating it *(no effect)*
    itunes 6 does work; but since i have an iphone it is completely useless for me. so *(no effect)*
    the strange thing is that itunes.exe does appear in the "processes" tab in task manager, but it does not show in the "applications" tab.
    and every time I shut down my pc, I get the windows message that itunes is shutting down.
    If you have any other suggestions, please be so kind help me.
    this is driving me nuts. It's been going on for two months now.
    Kind regards,
    Bart

    I am not sure if I have this right from all those posts.
    When you try to start iTunes, there is no error message and you can see iTunes.exe persisting on the processes tab of the task manager.
    If that is your probelm it is commonly do to a problem with cryptographic services.
    Before looking into that there is a quick thing to try:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1776?viewlocale=en_US
    If that's not it, work carefully through *method 4* in the following article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822798
    Make a careful note of any error messages you get, this is important. post back the names of any dlls mentioned in error messages.
    If you don't get any error messages try starting iTunes.

  • I upgraded from 3.6.13 to Beta 4.0 and now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing.

    I uninstalled Beta 4 and re-installed 3.6.13 now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing, I have been using Firefox for a long time but cannot resolve this problem can anyone help and give me a solution please. As I use Firefox as my web browser it is very frustrating.
    The fact it will not uninstall appears to be something completely new as nobody I know who uses Firefox has ever encountered this in the past.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • Email not opening This is a sudden thing, Email had been working fine for two months then today would not stay open now it will not open at all. after trying to open mail I receive a white screen for a nano second and the app closes

    Email not opening on my iPad2 This is a sudden thing, email had been working fine since purchasing the device then today would not stay open,  now it will not open at all. After trying to open mail I receive a white screen for a nano second and the app closes.

    Have you tried closing the Mail app completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Thank you for responding.  Nothing actually worked!  After reading the posts online, I called Apple.  They indicated they have seen problems with some software after their upgrades.  The technician was able to fix the problem on my computer remotely, but I have no clue what he did!  But, it was definitely related to their recent upgrade to my computer.

  • Firefox 4.0 will not open at all. It shows that the process is running in the task manager but will not open the window even after closing the prcess and restarting.

    I have had firefox since an earlier 2. version and have been able to upgrade as normal. After the installation is done it will not open at all. I have restarted and even uninstalled all previous version .exe and still nothing. I am using windows 7 OS. I am still running 3.6.8 and would love to see the new one running on my laptop.

  • I have upgraded from firefox 4 to firefox 5 and now it crashes and will not open at all just produces an error box to submit the fault. I have submitted and now cannot use firefox at all cannot open it cannot use it cannot do anything with it.

    I wish I could go back to version 4.
    Have spent hours now .
    Upgraded to 5 and now completely useless, will not open at all please help

    I have this problem with Firefox 5.0 too. You are forced to reboot when access to 5.0 is denied. I had so many problems with 4.0 as well. I am so tired of the crashes and seeing that popup window to send your comments, it is ridiculous. I also find in 5.0 that mouse controls are fruitless and sometimes take over. The pages will jump forward or back, the pull down menus do not function, clicking boxes in online email don't work and pages will zoom in or out by themselves. I have three computers with different operating systems that this happens with. All these updates by programmers are crap. I thought I set firefox to not update automatically, since updates seem to be worse than the previous version, but it happens anyway. I will surf for an older version or switch to something else. Too bad because after 10+ years, they are losing my loyalty.

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

    Hello<!-- XXX you may wish to edit this greeting, and other parts of the response so that it is personalised to the question asked.-->,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u> See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. <!-- Starting in Firefox 31, the Firefox uninstaller no longer lets you remove user profile data.Ref: Bug 432017 and https://support.mozilla.org/kb/uninstall-firefox-from-your-computer/discuss/5279 [Fx31] Windows uninstaller will no longer offer the option to remove personal data -->
    Please report back to say if this helped you!
    Thank you.
