Error message -1712?

I have a series of .doc files that need printing but I don't have word, when I try to open them with pages it refuses to telling me -1712
why is that? what can I do to fix it?

Try opening it with LibreOffice [free] or TextEdit, if it still fails it may be damaged.

As Ms Office is not an Apple product, I strongly recommend asking in the Microsoft Office:Mac forums here:

Everyone there is a Mac user AND an Office user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. I think you will find them more than helpful.

Why do I get error message 1712 when I try to open my iDVD files

I am really new to this, so forgive a stupid question...but why do I get an error 1712 message when I try to open my iDVD files in My Documents? What have I done wrong? Also, I was told that it is impossible to completely delete an iDVD project in iDVD06 accidentallly, but I think I proved it can be done. How do I go about finding it again? Thank you from an old grammy.

OK, I`m a PC user, not MAC (but I have an IPhone 5 and Ipod Touch). I am using a Hewlett Packard HP Z 800 Professional workstation with 32 GB of RAM. My graphic card is NVIDIA GTX 670, the "monitor"" is a brand new SONY Bravia Full HD Televison set, connected by HDMI cable, 1.4 HDMI standard. Because the Iphone is new, I happened to browse the Itunes Shop and purchased the first episodes of the NIKKITA series. Runs perfectly. Yesterday I therefore invested into a larger bibliotheque of movies and single episodes of series. Not ONE single item is running on any of my 5 computers. (All run Windows 7 64 Bit and the newest Itunes version is installed).
Because I always was a PC User, in principal pay for downloads but also in principle boycot DRM disabled items for the very same reason I experience now (DRM is blocking the legal use, not the illegally downloaded and cracked versions), I might have misunderstood the message circulating some time ago, APPLE aborting the "DRM abuse". Legally the situation is an "inverse ripping" situation. Not the mean illegal downloader of copyrighted material damages the poor starving author or movie industry, but the industry is damaging (or preventing) the use of perfectly legal purchased materials and sold non funtional material, which is against all laws in the world. I`ll remember it when they againn complain of decreasing sales and the end of the world. For myself the solution is not to purchase ANY of those bogus video, music or software files until any disabling software codes or hardware features are removed. If APPLE wants to do me a favor they could indicate if video files are HDCP -impaired or not or contain any other uninvited "user" of my property. (Of course my equipment would be HDCP ready. However I am not.)

I have a Macbook Pro and can no longer access Number I keep getting an error message 1712 please help

I have a MacBook Pro and for some unknown reason I can't open numbers I keep getting a message error -1712 I can't open old documnents not the program

-1712 is a time-out error. It means the application (Numbers) is taking too long to do somthing. The 'something' is often attempting to open a corrupted file.
Holding the shift key, as suggested by Jerry, prevents Nmbers from trying to reopen files that were open when Numbers was last quit. For future reference, you might consider, before quitting Numbers, closing all files you will not require in your next session. Even ignoring the possibility of another corrrupted file bringing this problem on again later, not re-opening the files you do not need in the next session will shorten the launch time for Numbers.

HT3805 My Aperture 3 just crashed, i.e., it would not open and showed an error message -1712. I sent the current version to trash and reinstalled from my A3 disk, but after installing again it still says "Aperture can not open -1712."

My Aperture 3 just crashed...by that I mean it would not open and showed the message: "Aperture 3 cannot open. -1712." I have the latest A3 version and had been using it continually for 3 years. This was the first crash. And it will not open as often as I tried.
I am using a 13" Macbook Pro with OSX 10.8.5.
I tried sending the A3 application to trash, and reinstalling from my A3 disk. Install message said "installation successful." But A3 would still not open and gave same message with -1712.
Any suggestions what I should do or try?
Thanks

Perhaps your Aperture library was damaged, when Aperture crashed. What where you doing, right before the crash happened?
- If you installed new software - programs, plug-ins, preferences panels, check, if they are compatible.
- If you imported new images, you may have imported corrupted files, that crash Aperture.
Can Aperture launch correctly, when you try to open a new Aperture library?
Hold down the options-key, when you launch Aperture and select to create a new library. Import a few images. Does that work?
If Aperture will launch on a new Library, try to repair your current library. Hold down the key-combination option-command ⌥⌘ firmly while double-clicking the Aperture library to open in First Aid Mode. Hold the keys down, until the panel appears, and then try the First Aid Options in turn.
I have the latest A3 version
Is it Aperture 3.4.5? The latest Aperture 3.5.1 will not work with Mt. Lion.

Firefox refuses to start up after I asked a question about aboutbrowser switch from "Google" to "Bing" I get error message "1712" and can't find a way to uninstall.

Firefox refuses to start up at all

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

I cannot start iDVD. It shows error message -1712 under Lion.

Can´t I use my iDVD any more? Are all my iDVD projects "lost" because I can´t open them any more. Thx for help

First try this basic troubleshooting fix :
1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch IDVD and try again.

Restart. If an application won't quit and prevents restarting, select
 ▹ Force Quit...
from the menu bar, then select the frozen application from the list and press return. As a last resort, force a shutdown by holding down the power button for a few seconds. Then press it again briefly to start up. Test.

Can't open Calendar- 1712 error message?

10.2.8 Client, error code -1712

Suddenly last week after several months of working fine, our 10.2 and 10.4 clients couldn't login. The 10.3 clients login to Network Home Directories just fine. You can use the same network account login on 10.3 client and it responds. A login on 10.2 or 10.4 does not. Apple support has not been successful either.
10.2 stays on the login window for hours. The barber pole keeps going. 10.4's login window goes dull and eventually will time out.
The server is an Xserve with 10.3.9 Server running.
I've run Repair Permissions, Disk Repair and Disk Warrior. I reimaged the client with our stand .dmg. It logged in OK until I updated it via Software Update.
Eventually if you leave the 10.2 client trying to login for hours a Desktop will be displayed and the message,
"The Operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -1712)"
I'm at my wit's end. I don't have enough money to upgrade all the Jaguar to Tiger or Panther. I'm hoping someone here has some insight. Thanks.
10.2 and 10.4 clients Mac OS X (10.2.x)

Check your 10.2.8 machines Directory Access and make sure LdapV2 is not checked and also that Ldap V3 is checked and configured correctly. I found that if I had both Ldapv2 and v3 on my 10.2.8 clients could not log in. 10.3 clients only have the option for Ldap V3, so it is not an issue.

Error message "ImporterProcessServer.exe has stopped working"

I imported DVD files into CS4 as MPEG2s as when I converted the DVD footage received from a client as avi files they totaled almost 300 Gigs! and that was only for 5 short DVDs of horse show footage. Anyway, imported one of the mpgs and cut out footage and slomo'd short footage in sequence. When I went to render the file, I got the error message above. I did the process explorer and this is result:

PROBLEM SOLVED....I was having the same problem and this is what I did.....
Read the error message that comes up when "ImporterProcessServer" stops and make sure it is says this:
Fault Module Name: IPPMPEGDecoder.dll
Fault Module Version: 4.0.0.0
If it is this file, here is how to solve the problem.
Do a system search in the Adobe folder of your Program Files and find every copy of that .DLL file. Ignore the one in the Premiere Pro CS4 folder because that one is obviously bad.
Find one in a different folder that is the same "Module Version" as the bad one in Premiere Pro--just roll your mouse over it until it displays the version number--i really don't know if the version number matters, but just to be safe, i copied one that was the same version. I found one in the Encore CS4 folder. Then simply copy and paste this one into your Premiere Pro folder and overwrite the bad one.
And it's fixed. I couldn't believe it worked!
This might not work for everybody, but it worked for me. And I didn't have to uninstall my Suite or my OS or anything!

Automator Action "Import Audio Files" error message

I use this automator action daily when it is activated via an alarm time in iCal. It is the 3rd workflow run in a series of 7 worlflows to create audio files while I'm at work (I record XM programming for use later on my iPod). Since I upgraded to OSX Lion yesterday, I'm getting a new error message I've never seen and I can't find any info on it. Can anyone help? The error message in a popup dialogue box is:
The action “Import Audio Files” encountered an error.
Check the actionʼs properties and try running the workflow again.
Under the Log for the workflow I get this message:
The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error -1712.) (-1712)
The imported audio file does actually get inputted into iTunes and converted properly via iTunes, but the error creates two problems. One is the source file isn't deleted after the action runs (which is a checkbox option in that particular action). This isn't a big deal, because I can create another workflow seperately to delete the file, so I'm not as concerned with that. The major problem is that the error dialoge box displays and the sebsequent workflows that are scheduled to run right after this one can't run becasue Automator is occupied with the error message.
I'm looking for any advice I can find, I've been using this series of workflows for a long time without issue, but seems like everytime there is a new OS I have to go through the geriatrics of figuring out what slight changes apple made to the Automator actions.
Thanks for reading,
Chris

Hi,
I just solved the problem pretty easily: earlier, on Snow Leopard, automator had to be set to work in 32bit instead of 64bit otherwise there has been a lot of error messages.
I tried to do the same with iTunes on Lion and, oh miracle, it works:
close iTunes then go to Applications -> right click on iTunes -> read informations -> check the box to run the app in 32bits and restart iTunes and .... that's it.
I work in a local radio in Belgium and I rely on automator on an everyday basis to download then add prerecorded broadcasts to iTunes to be aired with Lion server and I was stuck since a few weeks because of that problem. Now I can finally work again :-)
English is not my native language so please forgive me for my mistakes ... :-)

I cannot open my word doc on my imac. I got this error message, "The application microsoft word cannot b opened" #1712. Can you help?

Word can't open or does it open but you can't open documentts?
If you have Office does Excell or Power Point open? If they do you can perhaps check for updates with either of them: Help > Check for Updates. You can also try to reinstall Office with your installation disks. Don't delete Office, just try to install it again.
