App opens then closes immediately, but only when in Applications folder

I have an app called Cyberduck, a freeware SSH client.
I put it in my Applications folder, and opened it, but it bounced a few times on the Dock, then closed. I tried again, keeps happening, every time.
What's weird is if I move it out of my Applications folder, into, say, my Downloads folder or the Applications folder on my Home directory, it opens and works just fine.
As soon as I move it back to Applications and try open it, same problem again!
Any ideas?

With Cyberduck not running, go into the "Library" -> "Preferences" folder (located under your home folder) and delete the .plist file for cyberduck (I think the name is ch.sudo.cyberduck.plist). You can either drag it to trash, or drag it to any location outside the ~/Libarary/Preferences folder -- such as the Desktop. Then start Cyberduck. Moving or deleting the .plist file will force it to create a fresh default plist for that application (as if it were a newly installed application.)

    Try closing all apps in Multitask Window
    1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
    2. Swipe up on the screenshot of the app you want to exit.
    3. The app will fly off the screen

    The format keeps changing but the basics remain...in the center of the screen are large images of the recent apps which you can close by swiping up and away.

    If you restored to factory defaults/new iPod and are still haveing the problem than an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Podcast app opens then closes

    I was listening to a podcast then left the podcast app. After returning to the app to listen to another podcast, the app opens the closes immediately.

    Same problem here. I was in the middle of a show and the app crashed. Kept crashing each time I tried to go back and listen. Did the ole uninstall and re-install and the shows I listen to all showed up AND then the app crashed again.
    Update 6/26/14 @ 4:17 PM EST: Seems that if you put the phone in Airplane mode this fixes the issue (if this can be called a fix). So I'm guessing that the issue is something to do with the WiFi/Cellular connection to the App.

  • Windows 8.1 Apps open and close immediately

    We have joined a laptop running Windows 8 to the domain however none of the apps work. They open and then close immediately.
    The error in the event log is:The app microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_8wekyb3d8bbwe!Microsoft.WindowsLive.Calendar's package family (microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_8wekyb3d8bbwe) has more than one package installed. This is not supported, so the app
    was not activated for the Windows.Launch contract.
    The problem doesn't happen with a local user or before the laptop was on the domain.
    We have tried following with no luck:
    *Permission changes for ALL APLICATION PACKAGES
    * Laptop and user in an OU with no group policies applying
    *Same ISO re-downloaded
    *Registry changes advised by Microsoft
    * Local admin rights to domain user
    Uninstalling and re-installing the apps manually fixed this issue but this isn't the correct way of fixing this as Windows 8 will be rolled out company wide.
    Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    How are the APPs installed on the PC before joining into domain? With Microsoft account?
    Besides, have you checked this blog?
    What to do if your Windows 8 Modern App fails to start
    Please follow the steps mentioned to see if any group policy settings(like AppLocker, logon scripts or proxy settings) or the image itself caused this.

  • Reader opens and closes immediately by itself when try to open PDF from windows live mail or browser

    Hi,
    I'm having problems with acrobat xi since installing it on my windows 7 computer.
    Every time I try to open up a pdf file from windows live mail or a browser.. it opens and closes immediately.  The only way I can view it is if I save the file onto the computer, open up acrobat reader first then open up the file in there.
    How do I make it work properly again please?
    I've tried several things  so far like..
    -Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    -Disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    Please help me.  Thanks.

    How can I tell which one it is exactly?  I think it is Acrobat Reader.. 11.0.10...
    I can only open up a PDF if I save it to my computer and then open up the Acrobat program then open up a file using file > open.
    But if I try and view a pdf from an email attachment in Windows Live Mail.. or from a browser... it will open and close immediately.
    How do I fix this please?  thanks.

  • ALL of my 3rd party apps open and close immediately

    after connecting to itunes after a few months now ALL of my 3rd party apps open and close immidiately when i try to open them

    First try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  If that doesn't help, try downloading a new App free app from the app store to see if that helps.

  • Did latest iPhone update and now non of my third party apps work.  They open then close immediately.   I tried to restore but can't as my iphone wont sync with itunes now and I will loose my apps.  Also my largest app "Sat Nav" has gone.  Help ??

    Hi All
    I have run into problems with my iPhone 4.  I hadn't done an update for a while so decided to get my itunes and iphone 4 up to date.  I downloaded all the latest versions.  However now non of my third party apps work and my largest one has vanished.  I try and open them and they flash up and then close again. I thought the easiest thing to do was to restore so I tried to syn my apps onto itunes so I wouldn't loose them.  However it won't let me sync the apps onto iTunes.  It ill allow me to syn the old version when I just started but since then I have bought a dozen other apps.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    Well this won't work for me...
    I had all of my apps and music stored in iTunes, I updated to the newest 9.2 iTunes and did a 4.0 update to my iPhone 3G all the while not noticing that EVERYTHING IN iTUNES was GONE. When I got done updating my iPhone it was late so i went to bed... Next day came back to sync everything and thats when I saw it was all gone...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    did what the link said and NOW I have all my 6K+ MUSIC back but not ONE APP. The App's are completely gone from when you nav. to the location the link says... There isn't a mobile sync folder there...
    NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT... Very Frustrated and MAD. I don't want to redownload all my apps manually. TO many to do it that way.

  • App opens then closes,any updated solution, advice given about rebooting doesn't work.

    An app I used a while ago came back into favour I re downloaded it from iTunes but it opens and closes anytime I try to get beyond the first screen. I tried the advice here to reboot my iPad but this doesn't work. This started 2 months ago and I abandoned it thinking it would right itself with iOS 6 or something, it hasn't. How do I remedy the situation. I'm using iPad 2 + iOS 6. App was made for iPhone and I've used it on iPad and iPhone 4S  now it works on neither.

    Ok, just figured out how to get rid of AMDS... go to control panel...click on AMDS....choose REPAIR ,let it run through. if you see IGNORE pop up, hit it...it asked me 3 times i hit ignore 3 times. when it is done, go back now and choose to UNINSTALL it. this worked for me.....still cant download itunes though
