Applications won't launch after Installing Safari 3

I recently tried to download and install Safari 3 on Mac OS 10.3.9. After installation, Safari would not launch and neither will Mail. I have since gone back to Safari 1.3.2 but the Mail application still will not launch.
I would greatly appreciate any help! Thanks so much!

Hi gelatian1
your error message is actually very simple - but due to the long file paths, seems complex...
a file named webcore, located in
/System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/WebCore.framew ork/Versions/A/
is telling your mac to find something in a file named javascriptcore which is located in
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaScriptCore.framework/Versions/A/
and it can't find what it's looking for....because one or other of the files ( never known it to be both ) is corrupted somehow. ( note, this might not be the only problem you have, but it's the one your error refers to... )
Both these files are contained in the safari 3.1 update package.
soooo, you can either...
1: try downloading the diskimage of Safari 3.1 update for leopard & running it again, hoping that fixes things.
2: try running softwareupdate from the Terminal ( I believe that this bypasses the need for the files which stop you from running Software update normally ) . softwareupdate -l then enter will give a list of the updates that Apple think you need....... softwareupdate -i -a installs all updates that Apple think you need.
3: identify which of the files I first mentioned is at fault & perhaps use Pacifist to extract it from the update package & then place the damaged file manually. hoping that it's the only one.... I don't know if Pacifist works with Leopard update packages... I usually use something called UnPkg, which doesn't recognise the safari 3.1 Leopard package I downloaded , edit - I tried Pacifist & that wouldn't work either for me
Think I'd try 1: first; keeping the dmg in case you need it again.
This applies for you, running Leopard - anyone with 10.3.9 should ignore the above.

Applications Won't Launch after installing Quicktime Update

sorry...i put this in the wrong forum

I have now added back all the items which were in my original Logins List except for "Spark Daemon" (a shortcuts manager), which I no longer have on my system. Leopard appears to be running fine now. Perhaps populating the list again was all that was needed.

Lightroom 2 won't launch after install

After installing onto an XP 32-bit machine that already had Lightroom 2 Beta running, Lightroom 2 now refuses to launch. It is an upgrade version loaded from disc but has killed off all the other versions, too.
I have un-installed and re-installed repeatedly - rebooting every time - to no avail. Even a new install of Lightroom 1 won't launch - which makes me wonder if there is a rogue file from the Beta version that needs a serious talking to.
The computer shows the application as correctly installed but it simply won't launch.
What to do?

Thanks Lee
Version 2 and Beta preference files no longer exist after uninstalling and V1.0 still refuses to launch even after removing its preferences.
Could there be something in the registry that needs a kick?

Sampletank 2.5 won't launch after installing Logic update 9.1.7

After installing 9.1.7 update, my Sampletank 2.5 XL will not launch. Contacted IK Multimedia to troubleshoot, they pointed the finger back at Apple. ????

What OS are you on? I just checked it in SN 10.6.8 and Logic 9.1.7 64 bit and it opened fine in the 32bit bridge.

Comp won't boot after installing Safari 4

After installing the new safari 4 on my Powermac G5, you have to restart the comp. Help... now I only get a grey screen! safe mode didn't work... what to do?
Message was edited by: MarcoKoolen

I also had this problem when I installed Safari 4 update this morning. After reboot system startup freezed just before showing login window.
After some research I discovered that the problem was a missing file:
/System/Library/Frameworks/QuartzCore.framework/Versions/A/QuartzCore
What I did was creating a soft link to /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Safari.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/Quartz Core.framework/Versions/A/QuartzCore
The command was:
ln -s /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Safari.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/Quartz Core.framework/Versions/A/QuartzCore /System/Library/Frameworks/QuartzCore.framework/Versions/A/
Maybe this will help someone.

PSE 8 Won't Launch After Installing Maverick

I can't open PSE 8 and get an error 150:30. I tried to use LicenseRecoveryLauncher but it won't open either because it says PowerPC applications are no longer supported. Can anyone help me get around this issue???

Thank you for your assistance! I did as you suggested but it still is coming up with the same error about the licensing. I thought I would uninstall it and then reinstall but it gave me a warning that is needed to make sure before uninstalling to deactivate and remove any serial numbers used when installing it on this machine. To deactivate I have to launch PSE 8 so I won't be able to follow the rest of the instructions. It also said that deactivating a serial number will allow you to activate it on another machine. But I am just reactivating it on the same machine so do you think I can ignor this warning?

RH 8 won't launch after install

I uninstalled my previous version of RH6 and downloaded the trial version of RH 8. I installed successfully, but when I try to launch RH HTML, nothing happens. I have IE7 and meet the minimum system requirements posted by Adobe.
Does anyone know what I should do? I've attempted to repair from the Add Programs option on the Control Panel, but still doesn't work. Attempted to uninstall RH8 and re-install, but still doesn't work.....
Thanks!
PThorne

1) Tried starting RH8 using desktop icon, then tried program name of Task bar, then tried double-clicking the Robohtml.exe file....
2) The hourglass displays for about 15 seconds and it appears to be doing something, but then nothing.
3) Don't know what it will display in the Task Manager
4) Not sure what you mean by "where was it installed"? on my hard drive in the Program directory
5) No error messages displayed when installing nor when attempting to open
and I did re-boot after installation.

Applications won't launch after restore from dmg file

Hi,
I have setup a new iMac with latest Software updates and have installed Microsoft Office 2011 and Final Cut Pro. I then used Disk Utility to create an image (dmg file) of the iMac, this image I stored on an External Hard Disk. I then connected the Ext HD to another same spec. iMac, booted it from the OSX install disk, launched Disk Utility and restored the image to the other Mac.
The restore completed okay, rebooted the Mac off the internal HD. I renamed this machine and then bound it into Active Directory. Now no matter who I log on as, whether local administrator or Windows user, when I try and launch an Office application or Final Cut Pro, I get a message stating, "The (application name) installation did not complete successfully because there was a problem with the installer."
The application then does not launch.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this may have occurred?

Launch the Console utility and look for messages that might explain the problem.

Illustrator CS5.1 won't launch after install

I've reinstalled my system (windows 7) and have re-installed Adobe Master collection. Photoshop opens and runs fine but Illustrator will not launch. It stalls while Initializing plug-ins: PNGFileFormat.aip

Right click on the C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS5.1\ and the click Properties and then click Security tab and then choose your current user account and check the Full control boxes to be sure that they are ticked. If not click on the Allow boxes to apply full control to this folder. Click Ok two times and then relaunch Illustrator.

Captivate 5 won't launch after install

I've just installed captivate 5 on a Windows XP sp3 (fully patched) (previously the
computer had adobe elearning suite installed) but I can't launch captivate 5. each time I launch I get he captivate splash screen, and I can see that it's load ing components, then the splash screen goes away, a rectangular grey (blank) window appears and then it closes. Captivate does not load, no erorr messages display on screen, and I don't see anything in the event logs. How do I get this resolved? at the moment it's just a waste of disk space. I've checked and I have 112gb of free space on the drive so it's not the 5gb issue I've seen elsewhere. Any help would be appreaciated!

Itunes won't launch after installing - error

I've tried intalling and reinstalling different versions iTunes, including 7.6.2 up to the latest version. They all seem to install fine, but when I try and launch iTunes I get the following error message:
'The folder 'iTunes' cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the 'My Music' folder.'
I'm running Windows XP, with Service Pack 3 installed. Any advice from anyone?
Thanks

Hello
By any chance when you go to My Documents - My Music. Does the My Music folder
1. Exist?
2. Does it have a music note on it?
If it does so far everything looks good.
If you followed the previous articles posted earlier. I would like to recommend one last article. Which will assist with a full clean up of Apple Software and folders.
Hopefully you will only need to use this article as a last resort. Incase other options posted are not leading anywhere.
