Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Alternatively, see:

  • ITunes will not launch after upgrade--click, bounce bounce, nada

    iTunes will not launch after upgrade--rebooted nothing--2 bounce icon
    then shut down all and unplugged, restarted--no change, iTunes still will not launch after upgrade
    iTunes current version
    on imac w/10.6.8

    I have the same issue.
    Allready uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, but the same problem occurs.
    Icon keeps bouncing, and all that's visible is the first menu-item in the top menu bar, named iTunes. Nothing is clickable though.
    The iPhone Configuration Utility doesn't seem to work either, it crashes on uploading an app to my iPhone. I guess it's using some of iTunes' libs or something.
    Does anyone know how to get iTunes working again? I'm getting pretty desperate over here...
    Thanks!

  • Lync mobile app will not launch after upgrade to lollipop on HTC One (M8)

    Lync mobile app will not launch after upgrade to lollipop on HTC One (M8). Is this a known issue or is a fix available?

    Hi THGutz,
    Did you install the latest version of Lync for Android ?
    The current version of Lync for Android is
    5.5.3.8935.
    I don’t test it on M8, but on other Android 5.0 devices it works fine.
    Best regards,

  • Help does not launch after upgrading from RH5 to RH7

    My problem is similar to CaroMe1's. Topics within chm files
    created using RH5 and integrated into our software product launch
    correctly when a Help button is clicked on a dialog. After
    upgrading to RH7, using the the same project files, chm files
    created using RH7 do not launch at all; that is, nothing happens
    when a Help button is clicked on any dialog.
    Thanks in advance for any advice!

    The .chm filename and the .xpj filename are the same.
    Sorry if I was swerving and incoherent! I probably shouldn't
    have posted after traveling and no sleep!
    Here is how I tested for the source of this problem:
    1. I created a .chm file using RH 5, integrated it into our
    product, clicked on the Help button on any of our dialogs, and the
    appropriate Help topic displayed.
    2. I created a .chm file using RH 7 (using the exact same
    project files as in the previous step), integrated it into our
    product, clicked on the Help button on any of our dialogs, and
    nothing happened. No topic, no Help. Nothing.
    Is that a better description of the problem? (I hope)
    Thanks again!

  • ArtRage demo will not launch after upgrade to OS10.9.5.

    Gives crashed thread 11, problem with fonts.  I cleaned up the Font Book which had a few duplicates.  Cleared the Font Cache.  In safemode ArtRage demo will still not launch.  Worked fine before the 10.9.5 upgrade.  Is this a known problem with 10.9.5? How do I identify if a particular font is causing this issue?  Other apps seem to be running fine.  Anyone else have this issue?

    The problem only seems to be with stub applications used to start Java applications wrapped in a Mac OS X application package. All Java applications I have tried starting from the command line and using Java Web Start have launched and run without trouble. For example, the SmartCVS application package includes a stub application launcher in:
    /Applications/SmartCVS/SmartCVS.app/Contents/MacOS
    This application stub is named JavaApplicationStub, the command name reported in the previously posted crash log excerpt. It is this application that fails. However, I am able to successfully launch and run the SmartCVS application with the following command line:
    ( cd /Applications/SmartCVS/SmartCVS.app/Contents/Resources/Java ; java -cp help.jar:tools.jar -jar smartcvs.jar )
    Note: This is more conveniently done from a shell script containing the following:
    #!/bin/sh
    cd /Applications/SmartCVS/SmartCVS.app/Contents/Resources/Java
    java -cp help.jar:tools.jar -jar smartcvs.jar 2>&1 >> /dev/console &
    The line beginning with "#" must be the first line in the script file beginning at the first character of the file.
    Again, the problem is not restricted to SmartCVS. It also occurs with an in-house application with a stub generated by InstallAnywhere 5.5 Now. While the "Now" version is no longer available, the rest of the InstallAnywhere product line is now available from:

  • Mail will not launch after upgrade to Leopard

    I just installed the Leopard OS. My previous OS had been Tiger 10.4.10 and had been recently updated. Now, the Mail program will not launch. When I click the Mail icon, the little blue ball under the icon flashes a few times, then stops. A window opens to say that Mail has unexpectedly quit and asks if I want to send a report to Apple. I sent the report, but this of course does not help me to access my e-mail. Any ideas?

    Exact same problem, resolved thus just now:
    Finder, Search for Mail.app. Open the version 3.0 (Quick Look from Finder/File will help here...) and you'll be prompted to upgrade your mail stuff; from there, you're happy.
    My guess is that the Sidebar didn't upgrade correctly. Mine evidently still references v2.1 of Mail.
    On to that problem next...

  • Photoshop CS4 will not launch after upgrade to 10.6

    I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and found that Adobe Photoshop CS4 crashes every time during launch, moments after the splash screen disappears. I ran the Adobe Updater to see if there was a patch for this, but no go. I've already upgraded to 10.6.1 to no avail.
    Photoshop is my livelihood and I'd sure appreciate some help getting this fixed before it starts to cost me! Any ideas?
    Thanks a lot,
    -i-

    Here's the fix I found, by way of an explanation...
    Snow Leopard prompted me on my first startup with the following error:
    "There is a conflict with the _______ font file. This font file contains a font name that conflicts with a system font required by Mac OS X to display onscreen text. You should move this font file to the Trash."
    The fonts it said were conflicting: Helvetica, HelveticaNeue.dfont, Lucida Grande, and Monaco. I figured Snow Leopard probably wanted to replace these fonts with newer versions, and so I clicked "Move to Trash" on all four.
    Apparently 10.6 trashed these fonts but didn't replace them. This was causing Photoshop to crash on load.
    So I restored my ~/Library/Fonts folder from a backup made just before upgrading and this time after a reboot I said "Allow Conflict" on all four dialog boxes and launched Photoshop... everything is back to normal!
    Not sure what kind of "conflict" it's referring to, but apparently moving these font files to the trash as OS X prompted me to do broke a number of apps. Should I report this as a bug?
    Thanks for the ideas!

  • Itunes will not launch after upgrade or reinstall

    I was on itunes and the message popped up asking if i would like to upgrade and install a new version of itunes. I clicked okay. After this was done, I have been unable to launch itunes to update my ipod. I have tried to uninstall both itunes & Quicktime and then re-install both. I have also tried to clear out the temp files, however, I get the following error message...
    Cannot delete hpodvd09.log; It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using this file and try again.
    Can anyone help me? I am fairly new to itunes. Thank you in advance.

    Hello Pac80 or anybody else...I took your advice (see below script) on a similar problem you assisted on last week.
    I unfortunately am still not be successful in getting access to itunes..any more suggestions?..
    1. after I load the upgrade from itunes on my system, i get a dialog box saying "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close"
    2. also i get "error 1905 model C:/Program files/itunes..."
    any further advise would be greatly appreciated...cheers..M2
    Goto control panel>add and remove in windows and
    uninstall itunes AND quicktime. Then go here and roll
    down to the section "Clean up iTunes installer files
    on the computer"
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    Now disable your antivirus and security programs,
    then goto apple.com and download AND SAVE itunes to
    your PC.
    Once done goto the location you saved it and double
    click it to install.
    If it still will not open, scan your system with
    Ewido www.ewido.com for a piece of adware called

  • Jar will not launch after upgrading a project to Netbeans 6.5

    Hi,
    I created a project in NetBeans about 2 years ago, then I upgraded the project to NetBeans 6.5 just now. The .jar file that is created when I build the project gives me the error:
    C:\>java -jar Checkers.jar
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
    at sun.launcher.LauncherHelper.getMainClassFromJar(Unknown Source)
    at sun.launcher.LauncherHelper.checkAndLoadMain(Unknown Source)
    If I create a new project in NetBeans, the jar file it creates will work correctly. It seems to be something related to the upgrade or maybe the state of the original project (I didn't try the .jar file when I was running with the old version of NetBeans.)
    Anyway, I need to know how to make the fix from within NetBeans. I look at the project properties and there is an entry point defined. It runs fine from within NetBeans. I don't know what changes to make in the project config to fix this.
    Thanks,
    Bill N.

  • Itunes will not launch after upgrading to 11.1.5 with my 10.6.8 mac book pro

    as soon as I upgraded to the new itunes, when clicking on the icon in the dock I noticed the icon bounced up and down once but itunes never opened up. Tried it latter in the day and it still would not open. My operating system is 10.6.8and I have the current apple updates installed up to this date today. the funny thing is I waited on the itunes update, and then decided to go ahaead and upgrade and soon as I did, well you know what happened. If I could ask a second question, what if I just went back to the original software version when I bought this computer, would I have less problems. I tried this earlier because of problems with flash and my nikon software needed the apple upgrades to work (they no longer make the older version). BUt when I worked it on the original software everything worked great (no nikon) but I could not see the videos on youtube, and other internet content on various sites. So my question is, if I decide to cut and run back to my old home, how could I solve the the flash problem or could I just get an earlier version of flash? My mac book pro I beleive came with 10.6.4, or what ever they had about three years ago around November. But this itunes thing is really bothering me and if I can fix this then I will avoid any further iupgrades even if someone puts a gun to my head. Just kidding. Thank you again for your help

    My MBP (15", early 2009 model, 8GB RAM, 1TB internal drive) showed in Software Update as not needing any other updates, and I downloaded from Apple's site directly and installed iTunes 11.1.5 rather than doing it via Software Update (I've had some glitches with the 'direct' install from SU in the past, so I manually download updates from Apple's support website instead).
    Hoping Apple will figure out what's wrong with this version under 10.6.8...

    I am currently running on a Mac OS X 10.3.9 and I was told to upload from safari version 1.2 to safari 3.3 which was a big mistake.
    My Safari icon will only bounce up and down and will no longer open, as well as my Microsoft Messenger. Thank you for your suggestions,

    hmm I actually do not have the panther DVD, so where would I go from there?
    I tried deleting the Safari application altogether then downloading the older version again but it did not work.
