    Hello,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If that doesn't help...
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when trying to open AW6.

  • "Shared library error" prevents app launch

    Did the upgrade to 10.4.10 this morning, via the Software Update panel. Upon restart, attempts to launch Microsoft Word / Excel or FileMaker results in:
    Application Launch Failure
    The application "Word" could not be launched bceause of a shared library error: "2 <Microsoft Word> <CarbonLib> <CFMPriv_CarbonSound> "
    I'm out of my depth here. I've repaired permissions, but no dice. Any advice?
    (Many other apps - browsers & email, Adobe, Macromedia, Digidesign - launch fine.)

    Well, this has blown into a bit of a 'situation,' I'm afraid, mostly because I don't have my 10.4 DVD. (Seems I left it at the office when I left some months ago. They can FedEx it to me, but as they're closed Wednesday, I won't get started until Friday.) The only system disc I have is my 10.1.3 installer, and I suspect I'll open several new cans of worms if I jump that far backward.
    The G5 now won't boot at all. I can start it in FireWire target mode from the G4, and can see all the data on my hard drives. When it's turned on by itself, the panel light and the fans all look and sound the way they should, but I get to a screen that reads Mac OS X and a progress bar that never progresses – i.e. a white strip that goes nowhere.
    I also can boot the G5 into Terminal (or whatever you call it when I open with Opt + Cmd + O + F), but don't know my way around it. Didn't do anything there except remove the CD.
    A friend tried posting me a copy of his 10.4 disc 1 for me to use, but it seems the Apple folks knew we'd think of that. Whatever the technology, I can mount it but can't boot from it. (Or maybe that's Toast? I see that their help page reads, "You cannot make a bootable Mac Volume disc.")
    Repaired & Verified permissions on the G5 before it locked me out. Looking at it from the G4 confirms that it at least thinks that 10.4.10 was successfully installed; I'm now downloading the 10.4.10 combo update. (I hadn't realized until I was already typing this that I should try running it on the G5's system drive, from the G4.)
    I'm just posting this in case someone who's been willing to read this far spots some magic bullet that I'm missing.

  • Appleworks 6 will not open I get a "shared library error" message. What can I do

    Appleworks 6 will not open. I get a "shared library error" message. What can I do?

  • Having trouble getting appleworks 6 to open. When I have tried to update, I am getting a shared library error.

    Appleworks 6 will no longer open. When I have tried to update appleworks, I am getting a  message saying a shared library error is preventing it from updating.
    Any suggestions?

  • Application Launch Failures after Update: shared library error

    Soon after installing the latest Security and Operating System Updates, I discovered that I could no longer run Microsoft Office. I get the following error message when attempting to open any of the components: Application Launch Failure The application "Word" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "3<Microsoft Word><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_CommonPanels>" I have tried reinstalling the updates but it hasn't helped. I can't reinstall Office because the same error message comes up when I try to open the Microsoft installer. Can anyone help? I'm stuck. Thanks.

    Again, thanks.
    It's somewhat confusing. The folder /System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/CommonPanels. framework
    contains 3 items, a gray screen marked Common Panels with a small arrow pointing to the lower left edge, a folder marked Versions (which holds folders marked A and Current), a folder marked Current (which has a small arrow pointing to the lower left edge and holds a gray screen marked Common Panels and a folder marked Resources) and a folder marked A (which also contains a gray screen marked Common Panels and a folder marked Resources. When I click the gray screen marked Common Panels, I get a message that there is no default application specified to open the document "CommonPanels".
    I'm not sure what all that means. Are there too many Common Panel screens? Does the small arrow have any significance? I've also discovered that, in addition to not being able to run Office, I can't install any new applications (same CarbonLib error message). If you think I need to archive and install the System, I can try to do so.

  • Microsoft word does not launch because of shared library error

    The application "Word" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "-<Microsoft Word><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_System>"
    that is the message i got when i tried to use microsoft word, how do i fix it?

    See if reinstalling Word fixes it. Otherwise, since Word is not an Apple product, you should consider posting your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products, as they are geared more toward the issue than an Apple forum:

  • Launch failure and shared library error

    Hello all,
    I need help! I think I may have accidentally trashed an important file or folder. I cannot launch MS Word or any of my MS office 04 applications. I get a warning that says Application Launch Failure . . . can't be launched because of a shared library error: "*<Microsoft Word><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_ATS>"
    I can open Word files using Pages, but not with Word. I reloaded MS Word but still cannot launch it. Can anybody tell me what happened and what i can do about it? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Application launch failure - Shared Library Error

    I'm getting a "shared library error" when I try to launch nearly all of my applications..Microsoft Office, Photoshop, Final Cut, etc.. The error reads:
    The application "Excel" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "?<Microsoft Excel><Apple;Carbon;Multimedia><CFMPriv_QuickTime>"
    I ran disk utility and it said 1 volume could not be repaired because of an error. i went & bought Disk Warrior & ran it, but it did not fix the problem. Anything I can do other than Zeroing out the hard drive & re-installing the OS?
    Oh, and i tried to re-install some of the apps, but that didn't work either.

    You can try to reinstall Mac OS 10.4.8 combo update Intel or PPC.
    Anyway, this is symptomatic of hard drive failure and needs repair (changing the hard drive).

  • Application launch failure because of shared library error!!!!!

    I have been using photoshop for over a year now and I went to open it up and I get this error, Application Launch Failure, The application "Photoshop" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "/<application><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_CarbonSound>"
    Then when I open up the console log it comes up with error code -2820, which I cannot find anywhere. Please help before I scream!

    I'm not sure if folks in the "AppleScript" forum will be able to help much. You might get better results posting in a forum that deals more with third party apps like Photoshop. Maybe in Using Mac OS X Tiger.
    I have been using photoshop for over a year now and I
    went to open it up and I get this error, Application
    Launch Failure, The application "Photoshop" could not
    be launched because of a shared library error:
    "/<application><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_CarbonSound>"
    Then when I open up the console log it comes up with
    error code -2820, which I cannot find anywhere.
    Please help before I scream!
    Error -2820 is from the Code Fragment Manager and means "A fragment's container was corrupt". So it sounds like "CFMPriv_CarbonSound" may have gotten corrupted in some way.
    My machine doesn't seem to have anything called "CFMPriv_CarbonSound" on it (but I don't have Photoshop installed). So I suspect it's a library that comes with Photoshop or with a Photoshop plug-in.
    You might try doing a "Repair Permissions" and/or a "Repair Disk" in Disk Utility to see if that helps. But, if you don't get any other suggestions the only other thing I can think of would be to try a clean install of Photoshop.

  • Please help! Shared Library Error... no applications will open!

    Hi. Major issues!!
    My computer was unplugged for 2 weeks (renovations). When I set it up in my new office, none of my applications would open! (Microsoft, Adobe, AOL, etc...) Safari is working.
    I get this error message:
    The application "Photoshop" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "5<application><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
    The application "Word" could not be launched because of a shared library error:
    "8<Microsoft Word><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
    The application "AOL" could not be launched because of a shared library error:
    "9<AOL (Bootstrap)><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
    The application "AppleWorks" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "4<AppleWorks><CarbonLib><CFMPriv_SpeechRecognition>"
    Here's what I've tried...
    I have tried to install combo update 10.3.9. .. didn't work.
    My computer was purchased in 2004... just moved to a new house... do not know where my installation dvd is... so to reboot on that is not an option.
    I tried disk repair permissions... didn't work!
    I opened my log console to view the crash logs... and it appears a lot has crashed... but I can not understand what any of it means!?!
    Can anyone help or offer some advice?
    Can anyone understand a crash log if I post it?
    Please help!?! Taking an online masters course and this is a major dilemma!
    Thanks,
    Lindsay

    Hi Lindsay,
    "Can I get one from a mac store? Does it have to be the original one I used when I purchased my mac?"
    No, you can no longer purchase 10.3 Panther disks from Apple Stores, online or otherwise. You may however, be able to purchase replacement disks for your computer (if Mac OS 10.3 were the original install disks that came with your mac) by calling Apple and explaining and having the serial number ready of the computer.
    If your installation of 10.3 was an upgrade you can purchase retail copies of 10.3 disks online from many resellers, such as on ebay or sites such as FastMac, but be sure to purchase a retail box set and not upgrade or machine specific disks.
    Did you perform all of the steps that Kappy steered you to in Dr. Smoke's FAQ first and your only option left is the Archive and Install?
