Application request password and then it close

hi all,
I downloaded an application (a free version of a comercial software called Gauss) wich is a dmg file,
when I installed the application everything seems to run great, but when I start the Gauss Light.app file it request the password and then, after I write the password, it closes.
So, I started the application with terminal getting into the app file, and I can start it using sudo, but without sudo it gives me this error :
macbook-de-victor-rocco:MacOS vittorio$ ./GAUSS\ Light
sysctl: kern.tfp.policy: Invalid argument
macbook-de-victor-rocco:MacOS vittorio$
after I put the correct password....
what can I do?
thanks!

Welcome to the Apple boards:
The latest version of Gauss I see is 6.0 which was released in 2005. Unless you have a newer version, I suspect it's simply not Leopard compatible.

  • My iPhone3GS running iOS5 has recently been reluctant to upgrade Apps. The App store asks for my password and then marks all the Apps as being updated. Often only one or none actually update. Usually I get a message saying "Unable to download application"

    My iPhone3GS running iOS5 has recently been reluctant to upgrade Apps. The App store asks for my password and then marks all the Apps as being updated. Often only one or none actually update. Usually I get a message saying "Unable to download application" and "<app> could not be downloaded at this time - Done or Retry".
    It's not an iTunes login / password issue because sometimes one or two of the Apps will download and the others stall with the blank progress bar. The internet connection is working fine in all other respects.
    Sometimes, many restarts later the downloads will complete. Is this a known bug? Is Apple working on it? Any fixes?

    OK...now I appear to 'progressed' I changed my email address back to original on Apple id and then was able to delete icloud account. Apparently I couldnt do it as it kept requesting password  when I entered passsword ( both old and new one, it wouldnt accept it as it had my old email address in ) It didnt do that on ios6 . Anyway I deleted account, but now I tried to login in with my new id/password and it says unable as already in use!!! More help needed please! Its a nightmare!!

    Hi,
    iChat (it would help to know which version) can accept Apple IDs as valid AIM Screen Names.
    However if you have iChat 5 or earlier you cannot use ones ending in @me.com or @icloud.com issued by iCloud. (they can be used in iChat 6 or Messages as these versions make a double login to AIM and Apple to allow the use of the password).
    In addition if you are using an Apple ID for an AIM Screen Name the password still needs to keep to the 16 character limit that AIM has.
    AN @mac.com name can be used on any version of iChat  (Until the 30th June 2014)
    As it does not need a double check with Apple you can use it to log in to the AIM Web pages
    Login here with an AIM Name registered at AIM or and @mac.com name and see if you get any suspended account messages.
    Sometimes account can be suspended. Usually because something has triggered the "Unusual Activity" item.
    About a year ago many @mac.com users that travelled out of their own country found themselves suspended when they got home.
    If the Name checks out of if an Apple ID the password in known to be 16 characters or Less then do this:-
    In Lion upwards open a Finder Window and use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
    Select the Library that appears in the menu list.
    Navigate to Preferences.
    (If you have version earlier than Lion the just navigate to ~/Library/Preferences (that's the Library in you Home - Little House icon - folder)
    Fnd com.apple.ichat.aim.plist (even if you are using Messages)
    Drag the file to the Trash and Restart the app.

  • APPS ON THE ipAD mINI OPEN AND THEN IMMEDIATELY CLOSE. i'VE TRIED REBOOTING BUT STILL HAVE SAME RESULT

    APPS ON THE iPAD MINI BRIEFLY APPEAR TO OPEN AND THEN IMMEDIATELY CLOSE. already TRIED REBOOT BUT SAME ISSUE.

    Have you tried a reset?  Hold down Home and On/Off buttons, ignoring slider until you see the Apple logo.  Then release the buttons.  The device will reset--you will lose no data.  Please don't shout--using all caps is not only rude but it is hard to read.

    when i try to activate my iphone it asked me about my id and my password and then the phone answered me that the id or pass is incorrect

    That means that the password you entered for your Apple ID was incorrect. This is the Activation Lock feature of the iPhone in action. Only the rightful owner, who knows the password for their Apple ID, can activate it. If you don't remember your Apple ID password you will have to reset it. Visit https://appleid.apple.com.

  • HT4623 After installing IOS 6.1.3 I am now unable to install any app.  I hit the "install" it asks me for my password and then is goes back to install.

    After install iOS 6.1.3 everytime I attempt to install any app, I hit "install", it aks me for my password and then clocks for a couple of secs and then goes back to "install" without installing.

    Have you tried a soft reset? Hold down the home and lock buttons until you see the apple icon appaer then let go. If this doesnt work, open iTunes, conect the handset to the computer and do a full restore.
    Hope this helps.

    Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Your email account name>Delete Account. A window will popu after you select your email account in the settings and there is a large red Delete Button at the bottom of the window.
    Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Add account. Tap on Add account and start entering your email account details again. If your email account doesn't fit one the per installed accounts in there, tap on Other - and add your account in there.
    I would restart the iPad after you delete the email account, just to be starting "fresh" again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button

    I am having similar problems with iPad 3 freezing.  It was fine before upgrade to IOS 8.  Ready to throw it out!!  No one has any answers other than the norm.  Quite often have to hold power and home key down, which doesn't solve the problem.  It just unfreezes the situation you are in.  Wish this would be solved with the IOS 8!!  Should have never upgraded, but never had a problem with Apple software before.  Getting to feel like I am back with Windows.

    The backup does not include synced media like apps and music. You can redownload them by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If you used PhotoStream get them from your stream. See:
