Can't run iphoto, idvd, itunes safari..help!

I have recently used the software update option and i've installed updates for iphoto, iweb, safari, and itunes. The system restarted and now i can't run any of these programs. I tried to reinstall them from my mac os X 10.4.10 cd, but now i can't run the installer!
Any ideas? I also can't run installers at all (.mpkg files)
Have in mind that i'm new in macs...

Ensure that you have the latest version of the OS (10.4.10) and Quicktime (7.2) and the app.
1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the apps might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • Where are iPhoto library, iTunes, Safari bookmarks, desktop icons...?

    When installing Leopard, my main internal "Macintosh HD" (where all my programs are loaded) didnt show as an option, so I installed on my secondary HD. Leopard runs OK from here, BUT, I cant find my iPhoto library, iTunes, Safari bookmarks, desktop icons, and the programs in the dock no longer show. Any advice?

    Sadly, this is still an issue.
    I guess plan A would be to find all the settings I am now missing and point the various programs to them. Though not sure how to do either of those things.
    If this is difficult, then plan B is to "boot back into ...Tiger drive" and reload Leopard in drive bay 1 as originally intended. Again, not sure how to do that - and why it didnt work the first time.
    Pls let me know if you think this is the right plan, and if so, what would the steps required look like.

  • New iMac. Flash drive is primary for OS and apps.  I want to use my HD 2 (1 TB hard drive) for my bulky photo and music files.  Can I direct iPhoto and iTunes to use the larger hard drive as the primary target when importing?

    New iMac. Flash drive is primary for OS and apps.  I want to use my HD 2 (1 TB hard drive) for my bulky photo and music files.  Can I direct iPhoto and iTunes to use the larger hard drive as the primary target when importing?

    Yes.  Unfortunately, I don't know the specifics because I don't use iPhoto anymore and I completely copied over 15 years of MP3 files recently when I installed 10.7.  Needless to say, I have not opened iTunes since and probably never will again - not because of iTunes but because of my stupidity.  I did have some of the files backed up but I hadn't backed up in a while.......anyway....
    When I imported my CD's, I had them go directly to my external firewire.  I can't remember exactly how to set it, but in the preference section of iTunes you can specify an import destination to any drive that's available to your machine.  I did this with iPhoto as well way back at one point when I was using Tiger, but I don't remember the specifics on that either.  I can't imagine they would have discontinued support for that feature since then. 
    Sorry I couldn't help more.

  • I can not open iphoto and itune anymore

    anyone knows why i can not open iphoto and itune anymore/

    I have rerun the applications install dvd, but it has not corrected the fault. When I try to open iphoto's I have an error message that says You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.
    Peter,
    the version you installed from the DVD is probably older than the version you used last with your library, so you need to update to the last version you used.
    I have tried to update to the latest iphoto 11 but it wont download. Any answers please.
    Where are you trying to download from? When you upgrade a version that is installed from the DVD, you need to update from the Software Update menu entry in the Apple-menu.
    Also, iPhoto has to be called simply "iPhoto", not iPhoto '11 or something similar and to be installed in the Applications folder. Otherwise it will not be recognised by the updater.

  • ITunes .dll error.  I can't use, uninstall, install iTunes - NEED HELP!

    I can't even start up iTunes anymore. I get "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." I can get details on the error but it's all Greek to me. Any insights/thoughts? Your help would be most appreciated!

    If iTunes is crashing, why don't you send a crash log to those lazy Apple engineers.
    Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
    drwtsn32 -i
    And hit return.
    This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log" If there's already a file there, it most likely has multiple crash logs in it (new crash logs are just appended to the end of the file). So, delete this file. This will make sure you're not sending extra information I don't need. These crash logs are text files, so you can open them in notepad or whatever to see what information you're sending.
    So, get the machine setup to collect crash logs, do the thing that makes iTunes crash. You need to send that file to our buddy Roy. Make sure that you include:
    (1) the drwtsn32.log file.
    (2) the link to this thread.
    (3) a one line description of your problem, i.e. "iTunes crashes on launch".
    (4) the username that you're using here in the discussion boards.
    Roy is getting a little swamped with messages and needs to make sure he gets all the information. And if he doesn't get that information, the message is just going to get dropped on the floor.

  • Itunes & Safari Help on WIn Xp Pro

    Hi all
    I had a problem
    ERROR message on SAFARI explorer window is
    Safari can’t open the page.
    Safari can’t open the page “http://www.yahoo.com/” because the server where this page is located isn’t responding.
    Whenever i connect my iphone 3gs to my itunes using my laptop (xp pro), the itune store wont load.
    I had tried searching for online help and had done all authorisation steps.
    No luck still, so i tried opening a safari window.
    It cant even load a typical website like yahoo or google, it just load and hang there.
    what could be the problem.
    other note: I can connect to my desktop computer (xp pro) itune store with no problems, i had no safri installed on the desktop computer though,

  • Can you run both the latest Safari along with 4.0 beta?

    I'd like to play with the Safari 4.0 beta, but can't afford to lose my regular Safari along with its bookmarks, bank links etc.
    Can I run both on the same machine and just start up whichever one I want?
    P.

    Is there any possibility that the new Safari-4beta is causing my menus to freeze-up? I find my menu bars are often dead and I have to switch to another program-- even those are sometimes dead too, and after 30 seconds one comes to life, then they all do, but then go back to frozen again.
    I wouldn't put anything past Safari 4. Its mere presence causes the currency converter widget to give wrong answers.
    I tried to use the uninstaller, but it would not work; then I tried to just install Safari 3.2.1 - but it would't do this "Can't install since you have a newer version on your Mac"-- Safari 4 Beta did NOT do this on TIGER- but this was my weekend to switch to Leopard after 13 months of prepartion...
    If the unistaller won't work, I don't think there is any way to get back to the old Safari without either reinstalling OSX, or restoring from Time Machine (using the Utilities menu on the Leopard install DVD) and choosing a backup before you installed Safari 4.

  • I can not open iphoto or itunes - message is that "the program quit unexpectedly"

    I am not able to open iphoto or itunes from our family computer. It attempts to open and then gives the message saying i photo quit unwxpectedly.

    Hello,
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when trying to open them.

  • Can I store iPhoto and iTunes libraries on an external hard disk?

    I have a Mac Book Pro with Retina Display that I bought new in late 2014.
    It has 250GB of storage but apparently I am already running out of space already.
    I want to know if I can store my iTunes and iPhoto libraries on an external drive to help free up space.
    Also, when I get the breakdown of space used on my internal storage, it shows "photos, audio, movies," etc and how much each category takes up.  But for some reason "Other" takes up nearly half of my hard drive.  Is there a way I can find out what "Other" files I have that I might be able to delete to reduce the size on my internal disk?

    1. Yes. Drag the libraries there, launch the applications with the Option key held down, and choose those libraries; the iPhoto one needs to be stored on a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended.
    2. Click here for information. If desired, run a tool such as GrandPerspective.

  • I have an iPad, gen. 2, and it says that I need to update it to download apps. I was trying to get 'Netflix' and it said I need iOS 5. I don't have a computer with me so I can't connect it to iTunes, please help?

    My iPad will not update or let me download Netflix, help?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • Can I run two separate ITune Accounts & Libraries and ipods on one computer

    I have a friend visiting for a month and they want to use their IPod Nano and ITunes account on my computer. i.e. purchase and download their own songs via Itunes, sync with their Ipod etc. the same way they would on their own home computer, while they are here.
    I already have Itunes installed on my computer for my own IPod Shuffle, and related account for buying music etc. and want to continue to sync my Ipod through my own account of course
    Is there a way I can have both of these Ipods functioning fully with separate Itune accounts and libraries on my computer? How do I do this?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    OK.... I've ran into a problem and don't know how to proceed with this.
    The 2nd user is set up with their ITunes account and we have successfully purchased a few songs.
    What I expected to do was sync their Ipod and have the songs already on their IPod copy into the "new" Library we just set up. However, indications are that if I use "sync", it will erase the songs presently on the IPod and then only put back the few new songs we just purchased. (I tried a few other things but cannot get the songs from the IPOD into the ITunes Library or any other folder to preserve them)
    1. If it is even possible, how do I get the songs off the IPod into the newly established Library?
    2. If I indeed cannot sync the IPOD / Library - how do I get the newly purchased songs from the Library to the IPOD without erasing the songs already on the Ipod.
    Thanks, hope you can help!

    What do you mean, "is it unlocked"? If your iPod has a screen lock set, it will be obvious from the iPod's screen. For issues with the iPod not appearing in iTunes, start which these troubleshooting steps:
