Apps just hang after upgrading to 10.5.7 from Tiger

I am so frustrated! I upgraded so that FCP would run better, but I can't even get FCP to work for more than the briefest time. Neither do any other apps work for long (safari, mail, word - just about anything I try). They hang, either when I'm in them or when I switch to another app (which then also hangs) or when I go to close them. I can't even force quit them!
I'm getting fed up with Apple. It should get the basics right before it comes out with a bunch of new products.
ps I looked on the Apple support pages and they address this issue as relates to an archive and install; but my problem came after an update...

  • Adobe apps hang after upgrade to Yosemite

    Adobe apps hang after upgrade to Yosemite - requires force quit and reopen...any advice?

  • Many apps not working after upgrade

    I have a lot of apps not working after upgrade even apple's remote, splash id etc... Anyone else or is it just me?

    I had trouble with MPR, but since it's free, I just deleted it and reloaded it directly from the App store onto the phone. It had an upgrade, too, that must have clashed with the 2.2 upgrade. Once I did the download, it was fine.

  • Safari hangs After upgrade to 10.5.6

    After I upgraded to 10.5.6 last night I have been unable to use Safari. Safari just hangs after imediately opening. Firefox works just fine. Anybody having this issue after the OS upgrade? I am at a loss of what to do.
    Thanks,
    Matthew

    I had the same issue after instilling a security update. (Running 10.5.6 already)
    Safari would simply hang when trying to load websites with external resources such as CSS and SWF files - Google lagging such resources, worked perfectly - But navigating to other websites would lock up the browser. To solve the issues I tried the following;
    - Running software update again, installing everything missing.
    - Downloading and reinstalling Safari manually
    - Downloading and reinstalling newest version of flash.
    - Downloading newest build of webkit - which also locked up.
    - Rebooting (Doh)
    Nothing of the above worked; then I found this thread and noticed one thing I had not tried - Resetting safari!
    Started safari and hit ESC immediately to stop safari loading anything.
    Safari -> Reset Safari -> Check all checkboxes -> Reset.
    Success; this message is written using my new working Safari!
    In hindsight I should have reset each of the options separately to narrow down the bug. But I was not in a debugging mood at the time.

  • Hi, I have an iphone 3GS from HK. After upgrading to 4.3.3 from 4.3.2 as prompted by itunes on May 10, 2011 my entire contact in my iphone was wiped out! When I checked my backup file in Outlook Express it was also wiped out!!! What can I do now?

    Hi, I have an iphone 3GS purchased in HK. After upgrading to 4.3.3 from 4.3.2 as prompted by itunes on May 10, 2011 my entire contact in my iphone was wiped out. When I checked my backed up file in Outlook Express, it was also wiped out during the synchronization. I tried to restore from backup on iTunes but still, the contact was not there anymore. I have contacted your HK Apple Hotline and talked to a technical support called TIMMY LO, he said there is nothing to do with them and he refused to provide any support to recover my contact, he even said I should try to pay extra money to 3rd party supplier and see what they can do to my iphone, despite the fact that this could be caused by the pre-mature release of 4.3.3 when a bug still hasn't been fixed. I am very disappointed at Apple's service, especially considering that I have been a loyal customer of iphone / ipod touch in the past few years. I need an official reply from Apple on this! How can Apple be so irresponsible to their own firmware failure??

  • Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)

    Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)
    Are others having the same problems?

    Try this. Worked for me.
    - turn off your router
    - turn off you Mac's after removing all available printers
    - turn off all iDevices
    - do a factory reset of your printer remove all cables min. 30 sec.
    - turn on your router first
    - ran the network set up wizard
    - give your printer also a new name like "DeskJet 2015"
       Something which you don't have used before.
    - turn on your Mac's and add your printer
    - turn on your iDevices at least.
    Should work after these steps.
    It worked for me including all iDevices.

  • IPod App quits unexpectedly after upgrade to OS4...?

    Does anyone know what to do about this:
    iPod App starts up and stays on screen for 2-3 seconds and then just quits. Also my podcasts from previously are no longer there - that's ok with me but may not be a good sign...?
    Thanks for any advise!

    Lack of responses tell me no solution in all those bright minds out there... yet. Another question: Am I the only one suffering this. If so, then I will try to fiddle or rest the whole thing... Any ideas before I try anything too drastic?.... and please let me know if any of you are having the same issue. THANKS!
    P.S. By the way the recent updates to iTunes/iPod with IOS4 and Snowleapard/itunes have taken iTunes a quantum leap forward for those looking to use it for Classical music. And using the remote star rating system after upgrading to iOS4 is nothing short of fantastic (however trivial the change may seem).

  • App store hangs after Mavericks

    After installing the upgrade to Mavericks on my early 2011 MacBook Pro with 8Meg RAM and 750Gb HD, App Store hangs. Any clues. Tried the usual solutions, like repairing permissions, checking disk integrity etc. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Tpnotify with TPACK flag hangs after upgrading to Tuxedo 12c RP020

    Hi,
    We are experiencing issues with tptonify with TPACK flag set after upgrading to Tuxedo 12c. Looks like tpnotify is not returned or reporting errors. Is there anything to do with "009. Bug16506218 - TPNOTIFY WITH TPACK FLAG THROW OUT EXCEPTION"? Is there any documentation about the new flag TPACK_INTL?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    If all you have done is upgrade to Tuxedo12 the behavior should be the same. The TPACK flag definition is:
    "The request is sent and the caller blocks until an acknowledgement message is received from the target client"
    Is there any additional change(e.g. in your client) you have made?
    What Tuxedo version are you upgrading from?
    The bug 16506218 fix was for a jolt client exception and a JSH failure.
    Do you see an error or is the process which executes tpnotify() just hanging/blocking waiting for the ack message?
    The flag that you mention is actually an undocumented customer requested enhancement that went into Tuxedo 10.3.
    Are you using it? Using it changes the tpnotify() behavior dependent upon the client status.
    Regards,
    Bob Finan

  • Sync hangs after upgrade to iTunes 9

    After upgrading to iTunes 9.1.0.79 from 8.xx last week I have been unable to sync Outlook contacts and Calendar - sync hangs and never completes.
    iPhone 3GS on 3.1.3
    (No other changes made to laptop at the time - direct issue with upgrade to iTunes 9)
    Spend 1:45 on phone with Apple Support last week - very helpful - but no fix, and frustrated. (Have case number) Removed all Apple Apps - reinstalled, looked for list of DLL's on my PC etc during the call.
    Any new ideas to resolve will be gratefully rec'd, or fix from Apple.
    Many Thanks.

    I have very similar symptoms after upgrade to iTunes 9.1. During sync of Calendars (or if Calendars disabled, during iPhone backup step), Outlook hangs & sync never completes. Outlook stays hung, and hangs again if I kill and restart, until I reboot. Hugely frustrating.

  • App are crashing after upgrading to 5.0

    Hi All,
    I am using iPhone 4 and it was working great . Then I upgraded to 5.0 and some of my apps are not working after that .  Apps just crash as soon as I try to open them. Today I have upgraded to 5.0.1 but APPs are still crashing .
    I have shut it down and started after few minutes.
    Restored phone as new phone.
    Deleted the APP , restarted iphone and installed the APP.
    Result were always same. I do not want to restore my phone back to IOS4. Please help.
    Thanks

    Connect the phone to iTunes once again and do a full sync.
    I fiund that an iPhone that I have did this after upgrading and it turns out, the apps were no longer authorized on the phone. Re-syncing fixed that.

  • OS X Server hang after upgrade

    Hi, I upgraded my OS X Server to 3.0.3. Now it just hangs when it updates the services under the initial "Server is being updated on this mac" process. It happens every time I start over. How do I fix this?
    See screenshot below. Running Mac OS X 10.9.2

    This is the way it's always been.
    Server app was never compatible between releases. Lion, Mountain Lion each had their own version.
    Lion cost money, Lion Server App cost money
    Mountain Lion cost money, OS X Server 2 (Mountain Lion) cost money
    Mavericks is free to upgrade to, OS X Server 3 (Mavericks) costs money
    NB. If it's an iTunes Store issue, just buy it and ask for a refund when they fix the issue. But i doubt it's an issue.
