Application windows do not respond - help please!
Hi everyone
At first I should say that I did search for this topic in search forum section but all of the cases related to freezing windows app. do not match my problem.
So recently something strange occurs: my app windows freezes (I mean I can't close them nor move them) while everything else works (app is responding) - I can quit it using dock. And when I open it again it appears in strange place like the edge of my screen. It happens with very simple apps like: Finder, Safari and iTunes.
The whole thing started the day before (I don't know if it could be related to this) I have installed cocktail - to clean my macbook and quicksilver.
things I tried: I verified and repaired permissions using Disk Utility. I have also verified Disk (it showed me minor error with disk header) and redpaired it using installation disks.
An the problem still occurs!
Please help!

I have a similar problem, but for me the unresponsive application (iTunes is doing this as I write) cannot be quit using the dock. Initially, when it first became unresponsive, The arrow still appears under its dock icon to indicate it is there, but when I right-mouse the icon, it goes into the state as if the application was not running (no arrow). Right mouse shows "Open" as an option. I can see the app right there...
Activity monitor sees it and allows me to quit it (gracefully - no force quit required) then the app will launch and All is well... until another app exhibits this strange behavior. I have seen this happen to iTunes, Safari, and Finder most often.
At first I thought it had something to do with safari 3 beta, so I backed that out. Only other things I can think that have changed on my system since when it was in working state was Parallels Desktop 3.0 and the 10.4.10 upgrade. It has been misbehaving since June (through several security updates etc).

Application Manager - Server Not Responding
I am running Mac OS X 10.7.3.
The Application Manager reaches the end of a download and stops. It says "Server not responding. Please check your internet and firewall settings.".
After waiting several minutes, sometimes the program will install. Are the Adobe servers severely overloaded?This log is from another Mac with the same issue:

Blackberry 9330- application net_rim_bluetooth (147) not responding Error
I updated my bb software to 6.0 and paired my Ford Edge with my blackberry. All works fine for two days, then I get the following message:
Uncaught exception; application net_rim_bluetooth (147) not responding; process terminated.
I have had Verizon hard reset my blackberry and reinstall 6.0 update and then deleted and repaired my blackberry to my car. Works for two days and then I get the same error.
I was even told to power off my bb at night so that it would cut all signals - that doesn't work. The only way I can get my BB to work is to take out the battery each time I get the error and restart.
This pairing worked fine from November until now when my blackberry had 5.0 software on it.
PLEASE HELP!!!I am having the same problem...HOWEVER...I just downloaded and installed the upgrade on the software bundle for the phone (version 3084) last night and I am keeping my fingers crossed because it hasn't happened all day. Perhaps the fix was in that upgrade.

i have the blackberry curve 8520
when i try to add a new contact i get the following error message
uncaught exception application net_rim_bb_addressbook_app241 is not responding
or the phone locks up
i have taken the battery out and the sim a few times
i went back to an older version that didnt work
so reinstalled the new version
and this still happensI have a BB Curve 8530 running on OS 5. I also got a similar error message (295) and (253). When I open the BB Contacts app. Searched for a specific contact name. Then clicked on the name. My Curve just froze. And I either pushed buttons until I got the error message. Or I gave up and removed the battery.
To solve the issue I tried to remove my battery waited a few minutes, replaced it. Reboot. Didn't work. I did this several times. And nothing worked. Then I read thru some of the other post on this forum. I then remembered that I had a few apps which required updates n the past few days such as Yahoo Messenger and Windows LIve Messenger.
And found that some people deleted their Yahoo Messenger and it worked. But that didn't work for me. I then proceeded to delete Windows LIve Messenger. And that worked for me.
I then said that I can't live without my Yahoo Messenger and Windows Live Messenger. As not every one has a smartphone like BB and can use BBM. So I reinstalled Yahoo Messenger and the BB contacts app worked. I then reinstalled Windows LIve Messenger and the BB contacts app works fine.
So everything is working fine now. Please feel free to pass on this solutions to others. -
Every time I try to open Photoshop Elements 12, it opens the Adobe login, after I login the program does not open:( Help please?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") -
