Can't start GUI apps as Root.
If i am logged as root i can't start GUI apps like:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
kate: cannot connect to X server :0.0
should i post xorg.conf?

It's not really a problem, but you can copy your .Xauthority to give the same rights.
It is not a problem, and in fact, using kdesu is probably the safest way to do it. Starting apps as root in X is risky.

Can't start GTK apps on Kdemod
Hi,
I'm very new to Arch, but I've managed to install some things I need so far. I did a FTP install and then installed x and kdemod, fixed screen resolution, installed nvidia driver, configured alsa. I think I want to stay on Arch, I really like it's speed and the package manager pacman.
Anyway I can't start GTK apps, currently I've Firefox, Seamonkey and Gparted installed but when I click on their shortcuts in K menu nothing happens, when I try to start in terminal I get
gparted
No protocol specified
(gparted:7468): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0
I have gtk2,glib2,gtkmm and kdemod-gtk-qt-engine installed.lo enabled?
Don't know how to check.

TS1702 I can't start any apps in the same page
I can't start any apps in the same page
Fair enough. I am new to this.
The soution to failure of opening Apps after IOS 5.1.1 update in my new IPad is to:
1. Erase all content and setting in general setting
2. Reinstall Apps using ICloud backup service.
Hope it helps others with similar software bug in IOS 5.1.1 -

How can I start an app on OSX Mavericks without switching to it?
What's up to all my Appleheads!
I usually do my research (extensively if I'm particularly annoyed) regarding any of my Apple questions, but I can't seem to find an answer to the following:
Let's say I'm working in a full screen app (e.g. - Safari) window/space and I bring up spotlight/dock/launchpad to initiate/open/start an app, how can I prevent Mavericks from automatically "pulling" me to the designated window where the app is loading? I would like to be able to continue working on whatever it is I'm working on while at the same time have my app of choice start up in the "background" without being brought to it while it's still starting up. I know I'm not the only person that finds this behavior annoying, as I've seen it phrased a number of ways, but this question in particular hasn't been addressed (that I can find).
A little info:
Early 2011 13" MBP
8gb RAM
500gb HDD
OSX 10.9.4
P.S. I've already tried the 'When switching to an application, switch to a Space with open windows for that application' within Mission Control settings. This does not yield the result I am searching for.Welcome to the Apple Support Communities

[SOLVED] Problem with running GUI apps as root
Hi,
I have a serious problem with running any kind of software having GUI as root, which is indispensable for editing system files. For example I want to edit /etc/pacman.conf file with KWrite, and here's what I get
[zbyszek@barca ~]$ xhost +
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
[root@barca zbyszek]# kwrite /etc/pacman.conf
kwrite(11282): Session bus not found
KCrash: Application 'kwrite' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit
sock_file=/root/.kde4/socket-barca/kdeinit4__0
Warning: connect() failed: : Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi directly
drkonqi(11284): Session bus not found
Can anyone help me with this? Can anyone tell me how to login as root?
Thank you in advance.

Maybe vim is in edit mode when you press 'i' but it doesn't show '-- INSERT --' at the bottom of the screen.

Lightroom: configuration error 5. Can't start the app. Can't deinstall.
I am trying to start lightroom CC.
I get a configuration error message.
After deleting the app from the application folder, I can't download a new version or reinstall or anything.
How can I re-downlaod something from CC?
How can I thouroughly delete an app?
Any ideas?
ThanksHi e27ap,
Seems that after deleting the app you are still seeing the app as 'Up to Date' in AAM
Please refer the Kb : CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed
For Configuration error please check : Configuration error 16 | CC, CS

I can not start my apps and in my CC panel appears like I have never installed anything.
I was sorking this morning with my apps, and an update failed, and I got the blue screen. After that I was not able to start any of them, and it appears like I have never installed them. I am trying to reinstall and it is taking FOREVER.
if your adobe programs do not work, uninstall them, run the cleaner (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html), restart your computer and reinstall your adobe apps, https://creative.adobe.com/.
if your adobe programs work but the cc panel shows none are installed (so you cannot update), use solution 2 here, http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html even though that problem is the opposite. -
Installed 1.7.0_40 and can't start any apps built previously.
I installed the u40 release today, and I use NetBeans 7.3 as my development environment. After I tried to build a couple of projects against the new release, and finding I couldn't run them from within NetBeans (java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: com.sun.glass.ui.win.WinApplication._invokeLater(Ljava/lang/Runnable;), I went back to u25 and I was able to build and run from within NetBeans. But then I went to try to run some previously built applications (built against u25) and they won't run at all. I'm thinking it might have something to do with the packaging, but I don't know, and I'm not even sure how to find out what the problem is.
This is critical, because in my company some users may update their version of java, and if they do, my applications will cease to work.
My projects are maven projects, and I use the zenjava javafx-maven-plugin to package the apps.
TIA,
--KevinI found a solution to my problems here: http://blog.maurus.be/2012/12/02/javafx-and-maven/
By changing my pom to point at the local jfxrt.jar file instead of the one that was in the com.oracle repository, I was able to build apps that I can run stand-alone and against older version of the java jre. But then I couldn't run inside of netbeans, so the link above gives information on how to fix that problem. It has to do with exec-maven-plugin omits adding the system-scope dependencies to the classpath. Adding the location of the jfxrt.jar file to the bootclasspath. Hopefully this will help others who are suddenly facing the same problem. -
How can I start the Apps R12 DB?
We have R12 on AIX server.
The DB of the Apps got shutdown or the listener is down, Iam not sure.
When using the apps filesystem owner and typing sqlplus, it says: no listener
When using the DB filesystem owner and typing sqlplus, I am able to log on the DB.
I don't know how to startup this DB of the apps.
By the way this is VISION Demo Installation, and I wonder there is no support for this type of Install.
The proof for that is , I cannot run active users or active responsibilities and users,
When I searched using the log file, my search drew a blank!
Any help would be appreciated.
