Apps quit when opening PLEASE HELP!!

about two days ago i tried to log onto microsoft messenger but when it was logging in it quit and came up with an error message and asking to send a report to apple. I also tried to log on to msn with aMSN and the same thing happened. then later that day when i open certian safari web pages (it normally happens on myspace) it just quits halfway through opening a page. now when ever i open safari it tries to load the homepage but quits.
and now it seems lots of my programs are quitting randomly. Now it quits when opening iMovie, when i try and run iWeb it says it cant find my web pages i have made and then quits, dashboard widgets dont load and then hang, even the help viewer crashes as soon as i open it. and to top it all off the paim rest area of my macbook is starting to stain.
anyway so far i have verified the macintosh HD and it says its fine. but when i try to verify or repair disk permissions it says there is an error and has to quit. I have also done the hardware test and its all fine.
i have tried putting the install disk 1 that came with the macbook in and booting from it by pressing c. what is supposed to happen because it seems to be booting normaly. it just goes to the regular desktop and when i try to repair the disk with disk utility it wont let me so maybe it hasnt booted from the disk properly
oh and the only thing i have done recently is downloading itunes 7 before i got these problems. and software update says im up to date. i tried uninstalling itunes but it still had those problems
anyway please help me because my 90 days support runs out in 20 days. and i dont like using this windows computer

  • IWork Apps Quitting when asking for "help"

    All iWork Apps quit when I tap the Help Icon. Anyone have any idea what's up?
    — Thanks

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • NEED HELP ITUNES FREEZES WHEN OPENED PLEASE HELP

    hello all
    whenever i open itunes on my macbook, the loading pinwheel comes up and doesn't go away until i quit itunes or turn off my computer. my itunes will 'freeze' whenever i open it and will not let me play songs or anything. please help me!

    There are a lot of things that could cause this and your songs are rarely in jeopardy when the issue is iTunes so don't worry.
    If you could give us your iTunes version number, and the OS version you currently have those would help narrow a little.
    Did you install or change anything around the time that this started happening?
    Also explain exactly what happens. does the itunes window open than hangs with pinwheel or does the application bounce like it's going to open then hang instead.
    I would, even if just for good maintenance, repair permissions by going to your utilities folder opening Disc Utility selecting your HD from the left and clicking verify disc permissions. Also make a new user to test to see if iTunes opens there, if it works in a new user it's an issue with one of your user specific files, and there would be much less to sort through.
    More info will help a lot in figuring out whats going on.

  • ITunes freezes when opening, please help

    Whenever I try to open my iTunes it starts by "updating" my library, then it either freezes halfway through that or it freezes about 2 seconds later. I've tried to figure it out but nothing I try has been working. I've noticed that iTunes is trying to download a podcast right after but I don't know if that's the problem. I've tried to unsubscribe to the specific podcast but I can't get to it in time before it freezes. please help me

    Hi
    I had the same and I feel that your library is corrupted. Don’t be afraid since I could repair the iTunes following the next steps:
    A) Recreate the library:
    Follow these steps:
    1. Quit iTunes.
    2. Locate your iTunes folder.
     For Mac OS X the iTunes folder is stored in one of the following locations:
    /Users/username/Music
     For Microsoft Windows XP and 2000 the iTunes folder is stored in
    \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
     For Microsoft Windows Vista the iTunes folder is stored in
    \Users\username\Music\
    3. Open your iTunes folder.
    4. Drag the iTunes Music Library.xml to the Desktop
    5. Drag the following file from your iTunes folder to the Trash:
     Microsoft Windows: "iTunes Library.itl"
    6. Open iTunes.
    7. From the File menu, choose Import.
    8. Navigate to the iTunes Music Library.xml file on the Desktop.
    9. Windows users: Click Open.
    Moreover you should follow the next steps.
    1. Quit iTunes.
    2. Move the iTunes Library file located at C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes to your desktop
    3. Open iTunes.
    4. From the File menu, choose Add Folder to Library.
    Navigate to the folder where your music is located. Typically this is
    C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music
    In this way I could repair the iTunes 7.2. I apologize for my poor English and I hope to be of help for you.

  • ITunes 9 crashes when opening, please help!

    After updating to the latest release of iTunes 9, it attempts to update library and when about 95% complete, just crashes. Crashes at the same exact point every single time. I tried reinstalling iTunes with a fresh download and that did not help. I get no error messages, it just force crashes every single time I try to start it. I can't even access anything in iTunes. Can someone please help me shed some light on this? Thanks!

    That sounds most likely to be either a library file problem or a content file problem.
    There's advice on troubleshooting both those possibilities in the "User-specific troubleshooting" section of the following document:

    Welcome to the discussions!
    Have you tried creating a new user account and launching the apps there? If they work under the new account, then it is possible that you have a corrupted pref file.
    I had this happen on my eMac, but it was when I was a newer Mac user and didn't know much. I ended up reinstalling to OS - which corrected it - but that is a bit drastic.
    Let's not do that, but try some other troubleshooting first.

  • PP CS6 crashes when opening - Please help!

    When I attempt to open PP CS6 it displays the initial launch screen and then says "Adobe Premiere Pro has stopped working."  Before posting this question I tried:
    1) uninstalling and reinstalling PP CS6
    2) uninstalling and reinstalling Creative Cloud manager
    3) running in compatibllity mode
    4) launching PP CS6 while pressing shift and alt keys (to reset preferences)
    5) updating video drivers
    My other Adobe apps launch and operate perfectly.  Any advice is appreciated!

    What are the specs on your system?
    If you're on Windows, please update the driver for your processor. That step has resolved a crash-on-launch for several customers.
    Do you have any codec packs or third-party effects or transitions installed?
    In the bottom left corner of the "Premiere Pro has stopped working" dialog, there should be a link that reads "View problem details." Please click that and paste just the top few lines here (see the example here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1261230?tstart=0)

  • Apps will not open please help

    When i try to open some of my apps on my 3rd gen ipod touch they will open and then close before i can do anything. what do i do?

    Before you try the previously suggested options, open itunes on your sync computer and reauthorize your account, then connect the device and sync it.
    I had this problem which appears to be related to the apple function to "deauthorize" your device in the event it is lost or stolen. There is also an KB out there on this as well.
    Hope that this information is of value.

  • I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!

    I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!!!!

    Try this. It worked for me.
    I discovered the same problem.  I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format.  Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story.  Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
    These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
    FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
    SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop.  Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
    THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work.  iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app.  Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
    FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP."  ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
    FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself).  Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT:  iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
    Hope this helps. Good luck.

    iPhone do not do automatic update. You have to manually trigger the updates.
    If your Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads > Music, Apps, Books are ON then when you purchase any new content/item with any devices/computer iTunes, it will automatically download. Switch it OFF if you do not want that to happen.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
