Applications Slow to Launch

I have a Macbook Pro (15 inch 2010). The applications are very slow to launch (keeps jumping for long before launching). Have pasted a report about my system generated using a software (EtreCheck) as advised in the link How to eliminate slow Mac problems. I would be very grateful if someone could help. The MS Office for Mac is extremely slow to launch. The application launch is slow even when my CPU is more than 90% idle and though no backing up is taking place in the background.
Spinning beach ball is a common occurrence though it has not yet started irritating me.
EtreCheck version: 2.0.11 (98)

  • Music application fails to launch

    Music application fails to launch. When music app selected I get a blank screen and after about 20 secs it returns to the home page. According to settings all my musuic files are there.

I have s 32GB iPod with about 4-5 gb free. Any suggestions?

    Try restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPOd. Not from backup.  The sync a couple of songs and try and then add more songs incrementaly.

  • Safari SLOW to launch, FREEZING since iTunes 8.1 update Help Please!!

    Ever since I took the latest iTunes update Safari has developed problems, namely very very slow to launch and freezing up on numerous pages. I have done the repair permissions and restarted and nothing has touched this problem at all.
    I know there are mentions about this in other threads but I thought I would start another one with the subject line directly reporting the issues.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if it is only "wait it out till the next update".

    Something is wrong with Safari. It happens alot for my students. I've done a script for them to run to clean things up, it works. (See below) The script runs from a simple AppleScript.app they can dubbelclick.
    But When it hangs, I can deselct a lot in Safari preferences and get it running again. I just havent figured out wich of all the parameters that really is responsible.
    Script:
    #!/bin/bash
    osascript -e 'tell application "Firefox" to quit'
    #osascript -e 'tell application "Safari" to quit'
    kill -9 `ps acx | grep "Safari" | awk {'print $1'}`

  • Very slow program launch

    1.83Ghz / 512mb Mini that's about a month old.
    I have used Onyx for the Maintenance and Optimisation.
    Restart.
    Wait for everything to load.
    Get Firefox in Quicksilver
    Press Return
    24 seconds later Firefox opens and starts loading the 3 homepages.
    Everything is slow to launch. I can't see that memory can be a factor when all I'm doing above is opening a browser.
    I assume the above can be speeded up?

    I can understand the frustration, not least because I can assure you that by and large, quick and efficient is a good way to describe the normal workings of MacOS.
    I can tell you, for example, that on my 1GHz G4 powermac (that I am using at this moment) Firefox launches from the dock in 8.9 seconds. Safari in 6.5. This system is several factors slower than your Intel mini. The G4 does, however have 1.5Gb RAM, though it currently has 8 applications open also (excluding Firefox).
    I was looking on the Mozilla site for information as to whether the current version of Firefox is Intel-native of not, but there is no clear indication one way or another. O see a reference to an earlier version that IS universal binary though, so that would seem to suggest v2 is also. In any event, you can check when it's running by opening Activity Monitor, which will indicate PPC processes.
    There's no doubt that additional memory will help overall, but I would urge you to consider the other issues I mentioned in the last message - permissions, prebinding, caches etc, because these can have a major impact on system performance. I'm assuming you have some familiarity with these issues since at the outset you mentioned OnyX, a good general purpose tool that deals with exactly these matters, and to consider re-downloading the Firefox installer on the mini and then installing again.
    I don't have regular access to an Intel mini to see how it performs, though I have set a few up for users in my networks and not found them noticeably slow in any obvious way - even using Firefox which a couple of my users prefer. Thus I would not agree that such behavior as you describe is particularly normal. Not that that comments helps much!!

  • After upgrading to iTunes 11 application does not launch and is disrupting other programs

    Hello!
    I have trying to solve this problem all day:
    After updating to iTunes 11 this morning, the application does not launch.
    Furthermore, Windows Media Player, Win DVD8 and my Email Program fail to launch as well.
    I have been through all support pages on iTunes, on support pages on the Windows 7 Forum, and I
    read the answers given in the discussion.
    I have tried and applied the solutions given, but none of them worked.
    What happenes is iTunes tries to launch for a second, then stops, but the process keeps running
    in the task manager.
    All methods through MSCONFIG failed. Uninstalling and re-installing (in the correct order) iTunes, related
    programs and QuickTime failed as well.
    I am on a Windows 7 Home Premium 65 bit desktop computer.
    Up until the update this morning everything was running fine.
    Any suggestions are welcome.
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Solved it.
    I had a program running in the background, which did not get picked up by MSCONFIG.
    I looked at the services on CCCleaner and there they were, many instances of this program, slowing the
    computer down and preventing other programs (including iTunes) from functioning.
    Turned them all off, and iTunes and all other pgms work again.

  • I have been running Firefox on my PowerPC G5 for years and have just tried to install 4.0. When I attempt to start Firefox, a window opens telling me the application cannot be launched. I have installed it twice with the same result. What gives?

    I have a PowerPC G5 quad core Mac with a pre-intel chip. I have been running Firefox successfully for over five years and have used every version in operation during that time. Tonight, I received notice that the latest version of 3.6 was ready to install and that I needed to restart. I did that and was taken to a page telling me that 4.0 was available for downloading and use. So I downloaded the new 4.0 and tried to install it in the typical Mac fashion. After clicking on the dmg, I dragged the icon into my applications folder and onto the dock. But when I click on the icon on the dock, I get the message: The application cannot be launched. 10661
    When I try to launch by double clicking in the applications folder, I get the message: You cannot open the application Firefox because it is not supported on this system.
    I had to go to your site using Safari of all things! I tried re-installing it with another download, and that one misbehaves in the same way. By the way, in case it matters, I still have 42 GB available on my hard drive and 5 GB of RAM.
    There is one other funny thing. The Firefox icon from the disk image has a white circle with the slash through it on top of the fox and world symbol. That is what appears in my applications folder and in my dock. It appears to be saying NOT FIREFOX, as it would indicate in a NO U-TURN sign. What is this all about?

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • HT1941 Hi i have recently updated my version of iTunes in order to sync music from my macbook air to my new ipod shuffle. After a successful installation the application does not launch and I am unable to oepn iTunes of access my music! Someone please hel

    Hi,
    I have recently updated my iTunes to the latest version in order to sync music onto my new ipod shuffle. However after a successful installation the application does not launch or open? There are no error messages. The application is just unresponsive.
    I have already checked the compatibility with Safari, my operating system and checked my firewall is not blocking it - all is fine.
    Does anyone have any other resolutions?
    Many thanks

    Hi Carolyn,
    Thank you for your time and response. The trouble is I am unable to launch iTunes? I have restarted my macbook air a number of times to try and initiate the application but the issue persists and the application remains unresponsive. Will not launch?
    Thanks

  • When I close the CHM how do I get the application it was launched from to regain focus?

    I am developing a CHM for an application that runs on
    Windows. When I launch the Help (CHM) from the application, then
    close the Help, I want the application that I launched the Help
    from to regain focus. (I would expect this is what most people
    would want to happen, and this is what happens with Microsoft
    generated Help files.) However with my RoboHelp CHMs this does not
    happen.
    Does anyone know how I can fix this behaviour? Is there a
    setting in RoboHelp that I need to change?
    My R&D application developer has spoken with Microsoft
    and they suggested the problem was with my RoboHelp CHM, they
    suggested trying the following process with one of their CHMs and
    then with one that I created using RoboHelp, and they are correct
    in that my RoboHelp CHM is behaving differently. Here's the
    procedure if you'd like to try it:
    - Open a Windows Explorer window.
    - Navigate to the c:\WINDOWS\Help folder (or equivalent on
    your PC).
    - Double-click on the iexplore.chm file. Note that the help
    file opens up in a viewer window.
    - Dismiss the viewer by clicking on the close button (X).
    - Note that focus is returned to the Windows Explorer window.
    Repeat the above experiment, but navigate to where you have a
    RoboHelp CHM file. I find that when I dismiss the help viewer
    window, focus is NOT returned to the Windows Explorer window. Do
    you see the same thing with your RoboHelp CHMs? If not, what have
    you set to cause the application that it was launched from to
    regain focus?
    I really appreciate any help you can give me in resolving
    this issue.
    Best Regards, Sharon

    Hi Sharon
    Hmmm, where exactly *IS* the focus in your tests after
    closing the RoboHelp generated .CHM file? I just tested and saw the
    same behavior regardless of whether it was a Microsoft .CHM or a
    RoboHelp HTML created .CHM. Each time, the focus was returned to
    Windows Explorer.
    I do know that the manner in which your developers open a
    .CHM can vary. For example, your developer can specify that a
    particular tab have focus, such as the Index or TOC, while simply
    double-clicking will result in the last opened tab being the active
    tab.
    Wish I had more to offer here, but I'm not seeing the same
    behavior as you are. I do know there are some extended settings for
    your window, but I'm doubtful that's the answer here.
    Also, I'm not too sure how much stock I'd put in something a
    Microsoft call center stated. Just the nature of call centers. Some
    folks that staff them are good and skilled, some are a bit, shall
    we say, lacking. This is truly "Luck of the draw".
    Sincerely... Rick

  • Multiple Applications failing to launch in Mac OSX Mavericks

    Hi there,
    I recently updated my Mac Pro to Mac OSX Mavericks (OS X 10.9.2), and since that time, I have experienced multiple applications in my Adobe CC Subscription failing to launch. As a first step, I attempted to uninstall the applications so that I could reinstall them and see if that fixed the problem. However, when I go to uninstall the applications, I get the same message (crash report) that I get when I attempt to launch them, so I'm unable to uninstall the applications.
    I'm not sure what the protocal is, or where I can send the crash reports to get a better idea of what is going wrong. Below I've listed a series of applications that are failing to launch, then the applications that are launching and running perfectly fine, along with some information about the computer I'm running on to see if the hardware might be out-of-date and adding to the problem.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer and I look forward to hearing from anyone that could provide some insight!

  • Rosetta applications won't launch

    Hi,
    i have a rather weird problem with my OS X installation. When i try to launch a rosetta application (non-UB), the application doesn't launch. If I launch it from the Dock, the icon will just bounce a couple of times (1-2 seconds) and will then quit. If i launch it from anywhere else on the computer, nothing happens.
    Any of you know what could cause this problem?

    Macbook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Good morning and thanks for your insight!
    I ran the disk utility from the startup disk and it made repairs to the startup disk! After this, the problem still appears; when I launch some applications "nothing happens". A dialog box does not appear prompting to retry or posts an error.
    It seems as part of the os was corrupted or a system preference file (os9) needs to be deleted.
    Even if I reinstall these applications they don’t launch.
    Using “Console” here are some messages:

  • Getting application path when launching a Jar

    Hi,
    very simple
    how do you get the application path when launching a jar file?
    NNiol

    Unless you mean the standard application folder. That application path is an OS specific concept. On Windows systems, for example, you can get the application path by using System.getenv("ProgramFiles"); but that won't work on other systems.
    If you're looking for a constant location to store data files, you'd do better to create an application-specific directory under System.getProperty("user.home");.
    And if you're just looking for the place where your jar file is, you can successfully follow the previously given advice.

  • APP-V 5 SP1 - "Application Failed to Launch. This may be due to a network failure 0x0FD01B25-0000007B"

    Hello all,I am having some issues with APP-V 5.
    I am having particular issues with starting a packaged SIMS.net. I keep recieving:
    "Application Failed to Launch. This may be due to a network failure 0x0FD01B25-0000007B"
    ...within a second or two of clicking on the app-v created shortcut for this software.
    To clarify, I had this software working perfectly previously. I recreated this package due to a software update, but it fails to launch now. I started a new package from scratch as this is a complex piece of software with multiple installers to run etc.
    To be honest, I keep seeing this error on other applications. At one point, nearly every published app returned the same error. I spent a day trying to diagnose but the following day, everything mysteriously started working again.
    I have had a look on kirks blog & Tim Magan, but to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is a 'business critical application' (as they say).
    Quick overview of my setup:
    - Single Server configuration (Management, Publishing & SQL) on Server 2012 VM in 2012 Hyper-V
    - Win 2000 Domain with 2003 DC
    - Windows 7 Enterprise SP1
    - SIMS.net Summer 2013 sequenced on 32bit following best practice guide
    - Deploying to 32 bit machine
    - Client settings pushed by GPO. Powershell execution policy set to allsigned.

    RESOLVED: This error is caused by the "Program Files" missing from the "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\" folder.
    Firstly, a big thank you Nicke. You may not have solved the problem, but you sent me down the road to resolve this issue.
    After trying the step you mentioned, I placed the computer in an OU with inheritance disabled. From this point onwards, I deduced that it was actually a group policy issue.
    In my environment, I redirect start menus to generated start menu. This is created using a powershell script to combine locally installed items and network items. This scripts deletes the content of the 'programdata' start menu (i.e all users start menu)
    to prevent these items disrupting the start menu.
    Now... The app-v packages were breaking because, the 'Start Menu > Programs' folder did not exist. If an empty 'Start Menu > Programs' exists, the packages work correctly.
    I can only assume that the two packages that were working correctly - that I installed these for 'current user only', rather than 'all users'.
    It seems a little silly to me that app-v should fall over for something so simple. However, you could argue that it serves me right for playing about with system files :)
    Thanks again for the help.
