Application won`t start - starts when logged in as another user

An application created by Unity doesn`t start. When I double click (or right mouse click and choose `open`) nothing happens. However, when I log in as another user, or when I try to run the same program from a flash drive, it works. I tried a lot, including repairing permissions, but nothing helped.
Thanks in advance !

Try logging into your user while holding down the shift key on your keyboard, to supress any startup items that may be interfering with your program.
If that does not do it, look for a preference file in you user folder by choosing the Go menu from the Finder and selecting Go to Folder and enter ~/Library/Preferences and checking for files having to do with your application. If there are any, move them to your desktop and try again.
If that does not fix it, move them back, replacing the new ones that will be built. Also, if your program uses any data files or libraries when started up, try removing those. Again, if not fixed, put them back.

    Jon,
    Are you sure that the Database is started? You will get this
    error if it isn't.

  • Can operations continue to run when logged in as another user?

    I've logged in as myself and I have set an operation to run, its going to run for a while and I would like the ability of my wife to log in. When you do this the operation pauses while logged in as her.
    Can it continue to run at the same time?

    how to see the pass folios when log in to another cell phone or iPad

    You need to log into the content viewer with the same Adobe ID you used to create the folio. Note: iPad folios will not appear on the iPhone but should be available on all other devices.

  • Acrobat 9.5.0 - when logged in as ONE user unselect "Display PFD in browser" don't work

    Have Acrobat standard v9.5.0 running on Win7 - 64 bits. All up to date patched. On one user I can not let PDF files downloaded from the Internet open in an external window. I in the Preference I have unselected "Display FDP in browser".   Then I can see the file is downloaded, but never opened. I if select "Display FDP in browser" it is (now) OK. If I uninstall IE9 and am running IE8 or Firefox, everything is fine. It is also fine if I log in as another user.
    I have uninstalled Adobe Acrobat and reinstalled. Uninstalled IE9 and reinstalled. My conclusion is that there is something wrong with the registry HCU part for the "problem" user. I have deleted HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\9.0 but still I have problems.
    My question is: Which part of registry controls IE9 and opening PDF files downloaded from internet? How can I find the "bad registry key" for the problem user?
    Thanks in advance
    Harald

    Is IE9 Security preventing the download of the file?  IE9 has a security feature that does this and pops a dialog at the bottom of the browser window, you might want to check it out.

  • Application alias shows up only when logged in as SYS

    Oracle 11gR2
    APEX 4.2.3
    RHEL 6.3
    select *
    from   apex_applications
    where  workspace = 'MY_WORKSPACE';
    -- 0 rows
    When logged into APEX as a user with a workspace assigned (MY_WORKSPACE) that contains an application (and an application alias), no rows are returned when given the application alias in the query above (see the above SQL).
    But log in as SYS and the application alias is there -- i.e. a row is returned.
    What could be causing this?

    Many dictionary views limit rows returned by level of access.
    For instance, schema owners will only see applications related to the workspace their associated with.
    Some views won't let you see any rows unless you're querying via APEX (not SQL Developer), eg: apex_application_files

  • Certain Java methods only available on Tomcat, when logged in as a user

    Certain java methods are only available in a Tomcat webapp, when the Tomcat server is started in a terminal window, while the user is directly logged into the system
    When one of those methods are called from a command line app, for a split second an app pops up in the dock, even though no UI-method is called directly.
    For example include a method like javax.imageio.ImageIO.createImageInputStream into a servlet inside a tomcat webapp and start tomcat through a ssh-connection.
    The servlet will crash with following exception:
    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class sun.java2d.Disposer
    javax.imageio.stream.FileImageInputStream.<init>(FileImageInputStream.java:82)
    javax.imageio.stream.FileImageInputStream.<init>(FileImageInputStream.java:57)
    com.sun.imageio.spi.FileImageInputStreamSpi.createInputStreamInstance(FileImage InputStreamSpi.java:37)
    javax.imageio.ImageIO.createImageInputStream(ImageIO.java:331)
    com.sage.utility.ImageUtil.getFormatName(ImageUtil.java:76)
    When Tomcat is started from a normal terminal window, while being logged into Mac OS, the very same method works without a problem.
    It looks like the problem only exists on Mac OS X... on Linux it runs without a problem under the same configurations
    I just noticed, that when the user logs out, the server will remain active, but another exception is raised:
    Can't connect to window server - not enough permissions.
    It looks like the reason for this is a crooked implementation of the java api by apple.
    Since it doesn't really work for us, doing all out administration though screen sharing, I would love to hear, that there is a way around this.

    After I filed a bug-report an Apple engineer contacted me, and asked me to try running java in headless mode: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2SE/Desktop/headless/
    That solved the problem!

  • IWeb '08 works when logged-in as 'root' user

    Hi,
    iWeb '08 converted my old sites and crashed. Since then, iWeb crashes when starting. I logged-out and logged-in as root, in this case iWeb can open my old sites. But, if I log-in again as usual (not root) then iWeb refuses to open my old sites... Any help?
    follow-up:
    I changed the permissions of 'Domain.sites2' and then iWeb seems to open it and suddenly crashes again...
    Xtoff
    Message was edited by: Christophe THEVIGNOT

    I had a similar permission error message when attempting to publish, that also said that the disk could be full. Turned out to be that I had a mp3 file name with an equals and / sign in it - must have been an illegal character? The old iWeb didn't choke on it for some reason...
    Might not apply to you, but I hope this helps -

  • When I log in with another user my wallpaper disappear

    Hi, I had this problem with mountain lion and still have it with mavericks
    I have three user accounts in my mac mini, one for each person in the family.
    When we switch between one user to another the wallpapers disappear showing only a solid background.
    It's very annoying to select a wallpaper everytime we log into our account.
    I'd appretiate if somebody can help me to fix this.
    Regards, and Happy New Year!

    I know of one other topic similar to this. I'm not sure if it was solved.
    When things like that revert back to the wrong settings, it is usually that the system cannot write to the preference list file, or in this case, the database.
    On the other topic, they tried deleting the desktop database and the desktop.plist, but I don't think it helped.
    If you are seeing this across the board for all users, it has to be something else interfering.
    Please try booting into Safe Mode and try changing desktop pictures, then switch users.
    Some things do not work in Safe Mode, and it might appear sluggish.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
    If it works in Safe Mode, it is third-party software interfering.
    FYI:
    The database is in your user/Library/Application Support/Dock folder: desktop.db
    The preference list is in your user/Library/Preferences folder: com.apple.desktop.plist

  • Local apps crash when logged in as Xserve user - HELP!

    I run a new elementary school mac lab: 24 eMacs (OS 10.4.2) as managed users/groups with remote home directories on an Xserve. We run the programs locally and save to the server. Many of our apps are crashing leaving the OS fine. These are new OSX educational titles from various quality vendors including The Learning Company (Kid Pix Deluxe 4, Storybook Weaver Deluxe) and Tom Snyder Productions (Neighborhood Map Machine). And these are the only apps run so far! Our eMacs have 512 MB Ram. I use an iMac G5 with 1GB Ram as the instructor. These apps quit ALOT; however, when logged in as an administrator to the local machine, the apps do NOT quit. I've tried the various solutions posted in the Tiger discussions regarding font removal and system cache cleaning...to no avail. I'm beginning to think it may be server-related. HELP!!!

    "System Administrator" is the system access for the xserve. "Administrator" is your system access for the user/client computers, when logged in as that, it allows you access to the system "no restriction". I use one "name" for system access for all servers and clients on campus. I have alot of older applications that we run that have their own issues but not permissions, they run under OS 9. Newer apps like Mavis Beacon16 and Carmen SanDiego I had to tweak, I run them server based. I assume you have Apple Remote Desktop running. Set one of your lab computers up as a back up administrator/tester with ARD and all the server apps installed. I had all my new iMac G5 go bad (Bad Capacitors) and they were my Admin computers. Tweak one app at a time, get it running the way you want it to. Have a student abuse/test the app. Once it works correctly shoot the app to the other clients via ARD. This way your only fixing on machine. Setting Read/Write is a quick fix to get them up and running, But you are opening up the applications to the students who a very creative and never read dialog boxes. If you leave them open you will have to reinstall them occasionally to get them working again. I have had students change the name of a file and the app quits working. That is the major problem of Read/Write.

  • Why does terminal behave differently when logged in as different users?

    when I'm logged into my mba as my regular normal user, bash behaves normally;  but when I create a new user or use any user other than my default the behavior is different.  (might be bash or sh)
    Specifically, the tab autocomplete function works fine when I'm logged in as my regular user (tab-complete;  tab twice for all available selections/options).
    But on a newly-created user (also an admin) there is no tab complete, no 'tab twice, other options' etc. 
    Has anyone else seen this?
    I searched in this forum and found some instructions for creating an .inputrc file but I don't appear to have one on my default user so not sure why I would need this on the new user ?!?!?
    p.s. here are the instructions I found previously via a post on this forum:

  • Adobe Illustrator file will not display correctly when logged in as a user

    I am working with an Adobe Illustrator CS2 file that will open and display correctly if I log in as Administrator, but will not display correctly if I am logged on as a user. The error message is that there is not enough memory to display the file correctly and I am forced into preview mode. The user Home folder is on a server. Other than this, I have made certain that the criteria for opening the file match under both interfaces. I have opened the AI CS2 file on other Macs and it opens fine. I conclude that the problem is with the user Home folder, but beyond that, I'm stumped. Any help will be appreciated.

  • I can no longer edit images on external drive if logged in as another user even with permission.

    I have two users on my computer. Me (admin) and another log-in for assistants, clients etc.
    I use an external drive to hold images.
    Lately I've had a problem where if I'm logged in as Other (this side for everyone else), I often am not able to edit images even though the permissions are set for this log-in to have complete read/write capabilities?
    Even sometimes when I'm logged in regularly (my admin side) I have received a "File Reservation" error. It says the file is being used by another user.   ????
    Then it asks if I want to use Read-Only and do I want to be notified when the file becomes available. ????
    What's happened to my files?

    Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
    I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
    At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.
