App installers do not work since upgrading to Snow Leopard

Can't upgrade Flash. Can't upgrade iTunes. When I get to the "Install" button in the installer app, I click it and it does nothing. Anyone else?

FIGURED IT OUT.
Font conflicts. (I use FontCase app to manage my fonts.) I deleted Monaco.dfont, Geneva.dfont, Helvetica.dfont, Keyboard.dfont, LastResort.dfont, and LucidaGrande.dfont, and everything works again.
This came after I phoned Apple Support, ran disk permissions repair something, and reinstalled Snow Leopard. Hope it helps someone else.

  • Volume keyboard shortcut not working (since upgrade to Snow Leopard)

    The following keyboard shortcut commands, when I have upgraded to OS 10.6 a couple of months ago, have stopped working:
    Command-Up Arrow
    Command-Down Arrow
    (They control the volume of the iTunes application itself)
    Apparently they still exist according to: http://www.apple.com/itunes/how-to/shortcuts.html
    I have the newest version of OS X and itunes, respectively: 10.6.2 and 9.0.2

    Try adding every drive to Spotlight's Privacy Pane in System Preferences>Spotlight, wait a few minutes & remove them, then wait a few hours/days to see if it's better.
    Though slower, in the intterim, you might try...

  • FireWire 400&800 (IMAC Core2) NOT WORKING after Upgrading to SNOW LEOPARD!

    My FireWire 400&800 (iMAC Core2) are *NOT WORKING* after Upgrading to SNOW LEOPARD!
    Any Solutions?
    Thanks!

    I'll try your suggestions....Thanks!
    Recently, I try to Re-install Snow Leopard, unfortunately, still unsuccessful.
    The Mybook Icon only appears if it is connected via USB.
    After using Firewire and getting used to the speed...USB 2.0 is like a Corvette racing a Veyron...lol
    I am not upset on these issues, it is normal for new OS to have these problems...unfortunately, even OSX is not invincible.
    I'm sure Apple/Steve is on every Programers A*s for a solution.
    I still think APPLE'S OSX will still be the future of Operating system!
    For now, still waiting for the patch and hopefully soon.
    Suggestions are still Welcome for a Solutions:-)

  • Weather widget not working after upgrade to Snow Leopard (Australian areas)

    The weather widget is not working since I upgraded to Snow Leopard.
    The feed seems to have changed from Accuraweather or something like that to Yahoo!Weather, and Yahoo!Weather seems to have problems (at least concerning weather data feeds from places in Australia).
    I live in Kempsey, New South Wales (Australia). I can't input that address, because it won't validate. When I try typing my address in the widget autocompletes with "Kempsey, Austral Eden, New South Wales (Australia)" (FYI, Austral Eden is a rural parish near Kempsey, but Austral Eden is not in Kempsey and Kempsey is not in Austral Eden). That address will validate, but there seems to be no weather feed: ie. I don't get any information displayed in the widget.
    The nearest address that will validate correctly is "Port Macquarie, New South Wales (Australia)". The Yahoo!Weather feed doesn't provide any information about that, either.
    I can get a weather data feed for Canberra. But Canberra is 800 kilometres from here.
    I think I want to change back to AccuraWeather. How would I do that?

    I'm annoyed by this as well.
    I was planning on buying my father the Snow Leopard upgrade for Christmas, but there is no way he'll want it without a working Port Macquarie weather widget. ( I'm not kidding! )
    I've looked at the AccuWeather widget as well, but it is really ugly!

  • Titles and Transitions doe not work after upgrading to Snow Leopard

    I can not get my Titles or transitions to work in iMovie any more after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
    Everything goes to a black screen. I am having problems with final cut express also. Anyone have an idea when there will be a patch to fix this? I would hate to have to down grade.

    Holy *&$^, no kidding. I mean this is bad. I can't really do anything on iMovie at all. I really hope there is a simple solution to this, b/c if this really is part of a bad release, Apple will not hear the end of it.

  • Logic not working after upgrade to Snow Leopard

    I resisted upgrading to Snow Leopard while working on a few projects and just did yesterday. As feared, Logic is not working. It goes through the opening sequence and then when I try to open a project it crashes. I;ve tried rebooting. Same problem. Any ideas? Do I need to reinstall Snow Leopard? Or am I faced with reloading Logic? Any local caches I can delete to try and reset it on next start? Thanks so much.

    Did you check out the links?
    The first link I posted specifically says upgrading to Snow Leopard.
    Here it is again.

    It may not be the solution but the fix is for Snow Leopard.

  • Trash basket not emptying since upgraded to Snow leopard

    I  am experiencing difficulties emptying my trash basket.  Since I upgraded to Snow Leopard (10.8.2) the process to delete unlock or lock files in the trash can do not empty.

    If you're on Mountain lion it would make more sense to post in that forum.
    However, anyone who wants to help will need to know what's in the Trash and where it came from.
    Note that the collective Trashes of all connected volumes are aggregated in the Trash in your Dock. They can only be emptied if the volume they're on is mounted on your Mac.
    If you've trashed files from Time Machine you may well have corrupted your entire backup. See Pondini's articles and FAQ/Troubleshooting in that case; http://pondini.org/TM/Home.html

  • URGENT: Bluetooth not found since upgrading to Snow Leopard

    I have a MBP which I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard, running 10.6.2.
    Since upgrading I no longer have bluetooth on this machine.
    I have tried the following without success:
    1. Installed temp monitor + smcFanControl to cool chipset down (temps at 39C)
    2. Reset PRAM + NVRAM
    3. Restarted (with / without power adaptor), Shut down, etc
    4. Installed latest drivers and software
    5. Deleted bluetooth*.plist
    6. tried changing sleep mode to hibernatemode 0
    Bluetooth does not appear in the system preferences, or the toolbar or anywhere on the system. Bluetooth diagnostics does not locate it either.
    Model Name: MacBook Pro
    Model Identifier: MacBookPro5,2
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 3.06 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 1
    Total Number Of Cores: 2
    L2 Cache: 6 MB
    Memory: 8 GB
    Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
    Boot ROM Version: MBP52.008E.B05
    SMC Version (system): 1.42f4

    Have you tried resetting the SMC? You said "Reset PRAM + NVRAM" so I'm not sure if you meant SMC when you said "PRAM"
    If you have not tried resetting the SMC... give that a try. Be sure to follow the instructions for your specific model as they vary from machine to machine:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Bluetooth disappearing is not that uncommon and resetting the SMC usually brings it back.

  • Sleep indicator light not working after upgrading to Snow Leopard

    Hello all, I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard on my mid-2007 Macbook Pro (Macbook Pro 3,1, 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM) and after the upgrade the sleep light no longer comes on when I shut the lid or when the display is powered off.
    Not a huge deal, but might be an issue if I can't remember if I shut the computer down or put it to sleep last—I did not do a clean install, but would anyone happen to know something I could try before resorting to that?
    Thanks, your help is much appreciated!

    Have you tried Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)?

  • Spotlight not working after upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Spotlight has not been working properly since I upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I only get partial results. I can see files in Finder that Spotlight is not picking up. It does not pick up most of the items it should.
    I've reindexed and that doesn't help.
    It worked perfectly before the upgrade.
    Does anyone have a fix?

    Try adding every drive to Spotlight's Privacy Pane in System Preferences>Spotlight, wait a few minutes & remove them, then wait a few hours/days to see if it's better.

  • Automator has stopped working since upgrade to snow leopard

    I frequently use Automator to scale groups of images, but since upgrading to 10.6.8 it will no longer work.  I can get files from folders, can copy and rename them, but scale does not work.  I get the message "The action "Scale Images" was not supplied with the required data."  I have tried a variety of image types to see if that was the problem, and tried with a single file that was re-scaled in a previous workflow.  I always get the same error message. 
    Any ideas?

    Reset SMC.

  • Aperture not working following upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.3

    Until now I have been running OS X 10.5 and have regularly checked and updated software. For photo's I originally purchased Aperture 2 and recently upgraded to Aperture 3 (using an upgrade disc rather than a full version) and all was working fine.
    Today I upgraded to OS X 10.6.3, using a Snow Leopard upgrade disc purchased from an Apple shop, then completed a software update which has taken me to OS X 10.6.5 but Aperture will now not launch I just get a pop up stating that "Aperture cannot be opened because of a problem" and then suggesting that I need to check with the developer to make sure that Aperture works with this version of Mac OS X.
    I am clearly using the latest version of Aperture and the latest OS X system so am stumped.
    I have also attempted to reinstall Aperture using my Aperture 2 disc (still wont launch) then the Aperture 3 upgrade disc (still wont work).
    Any help or guidance would be appreciated
    Thanks

    Welcome to the forums!
    Have you tried the Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics detailed here;

    Also as you have just updated software and OS run Disk Utility on your disks.

  • USB Mouse on Hub not working after upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Recently upgraded Macbook Pro from Leopard to Snow Leopard. Had a mouse and external HD attached to Mac via a USB Hub. After upgrade, HD is recognized and works fine (use it with Time Machine). Mouse will not work through hub, but is recognized by the system. Mouse is a simple wired USB device and functions fine (works when connected directly to the Mac).
    Any idea what might be wrong or what needs to be done to allow the mouse to work again?

    Yes it is a powered hub.

  • Compressor not working following upgrade to snow Leopard

    Out-oh. I recently upgraded to a new MacBook pro and reinstalled the final cut suite. I'm running Mac OSX 10.6.2 and compressor 3.0.5. Compressor opens fine, but when I submit a job, it says, "Unable to submit to queue, please restart your computer or verify Compressor installation is correct."
    Restarting is no help. Any ideas?
    I'm afraid I'm going to have to re-install. But if I do that, what's stopping it from not working again? I just reinstalled the whole suite.
