Can't open file "/Applications/iWeb.app."

I just installed ILife 09 and I can't get iweb to launch. I get: Can’t open file “/Applications/iWeb.app.” error message.
I tried to reinstall it without luck. Any ideas? Bad pref file? If so, which one and where?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Ddelete the iWeb preference file, com.apple. iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iWeb and see if that helps.
Also have you rebooted since installing the new version?

If that doesn't do it, try reinstalling the app as shown further down the page.

When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

You cannot retrieve the already published site as iWeb CANNOT open it - it has no import facility.
You need your domain.sites file, which you can find under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites. You do not need any kind of account for this because it is your domain.sites file that resides on the hard drive of your Mac anyway. Find this file and you can alter your website.
Use a spotlight search to try and find it and if this does not work you can download something called Find Any File. If you really can't find it, then you'll have to start from scratch because iWeb cannot open a site that is already published.

TextEdit.app is corrupt. I have tried repairing and I have tried reinstalling but it still says You can't open the application TextEdit.app because it may be damaged or incomplete.

TextEdit is not working. I have tried repairing and I have tried reinstalling but it still says "You can't open the application TextEdit.app because it may be damaged or incomplete."
Can anyone give me some other ideas as to how to fix. Thanks.

Thats the first thing I tried last night. And reinstalled just textEdit but no luck, then I deleted TextEdit and reinstalled it again and I was still getting the same message. Tried pacifist this morning again but this time I tried reinstalling the whole apps package half way through its says it cant reinstall due to multiple missing files.
Tried the repair option on the OS disc it says everything is fine

You can't open the application "AcroExt.app" because it is not responding.

I'm getting this error message every time I try to open a PDF from Finder:
You can’t open the application “AcroExt.app” because it is not responding.
I'm running Yosemite 10.10.2 and Acrobat Pro 11.0.10. In fact, it seems like it started right after I installed the 10.10.2 update.
If I open Acrobat and then open the PDF file from the File > Open menu within Acrobat the PDF will open, but if I try opening it from Finder I get the above error.
Any ideas how I can fix this?
Thanks for whatever tips you can provide.

Hi,
I have been experiencing the same issur.
This is not a fix, but rather a workaround. Keep the Adobe Acrobat application open all the time. You should be able to double-click the pdf document from the finder and open it.

Can't open the application "Firefox.app" because it is not supported by this architecture. I'm using mac os 10.5.8

Been using Firefox (many years) version 3.16.. Received invitation to download Firefox version 4 for Mac this morning and did so (regretably losing 3.16 version) because now the new version 4 won't open. I just keep getting the error message "You can't open the application "Firefox.app" because it is not supported by this architecture." I'm using the latest Mac OS 10.5.8. The processor is 1.8 GHz Power PC G5.
I trashed the first download and downloaded a 2nd Firefox version 4 and had the same results.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

You canât open the application âLibreOffice.appâ because PowerPC applications are no longer supported

You can’t open the application “LibreOffice.app” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported

There has never been a PPC version of that application.
Boot in safe mode.* This will cause certain caches maintained by the system to be rebuilt. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
Safe mode is much slower to boot than normal.
When the login screen appears, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.

PAGES 09 CAN'T OPEN FILE FROM PAGES APP IPAD IOS 1.7

Hi,
This morning I was trying to open a file from the iCloud window of my Pages 0.9 - 4.2 on my iMac (Os 10.8.3) when I did so the window told me that I needed a new version of Pages and it sent my to the appstore, pointing to Pages 09 4.3.
I was shocked...another 17 euro to buy the some software I already have!!! Anyway...I was in a rush so I had to buy it...I tried to do so but the AppStore didn't want to sell it to me! It said: "This app is already istalled on your Mac, check for updates". Of course there were no updates to be downloaded...so I'm here asking for you help!
Thank you!
PS: the file I was trying to open had been created a few hours erlier on my iPad (updated to the latest IOS, 1.7)

Go to this page http://www.apple.com/support/pages/ and look at the right side. There are links to iWork 9.3. Doenload it and update. Hopefully it will work.

I run System 10.5.8 on a Mac and receive the reply "You can't open the application 'Firefox.app' because it is not supported on this architecture."

I always update to your newest Firefox configuration and did so when I was asked to upgrade to "Firefox 4" for the Mac. When I tried to access my account I receive the above message. I dumped the upgrade which wiped my Mac clean of all my bookmarks and again downloaded Firefox 4 but with the same result. Tried to switch to Safari but this too was unsatisfactory. I'm guessing I need to return to a previous Firefox upgrade and never again try and upgrade. How do I do this?

"You can't open the application iCal.app because it is not supported on this type of Mac."???

Can't seem to find this posted anywhere else. My iCal won't run and has that circle / slash icon overlay. By the modification dates etc. it looks like the lat update killed it.
Ay ideas or anyone else seen this?

You can't open the application iPhoto.app because it is not supported on this type of Mac.

I just used migration assistant to bring all my data over from my old Macbook to my new iMac. Then I deleted the admin user which was created automatically when I first booted up the iMac. All worked well, except for iPhoto which niow gives me this message. Annoying because I upgraded to the iMac for the big screen to work with my photos.
Any ideas folks?
TIA
Steve
