Help! my iMovie doesn't open anymore...what happened?

I have run into a few problems with trying to become more independent in editing my own original recorded materials.
Starting here at the beginning of my struggles.....*my iMovie will not open.*
when i go into Finder to find it and then click on it it says, "The volume for iMovie cannot be found"
what does this mean?
where did it go?
what can i do?
any suggestions and wisdom would be appreciated.
thank you.

..have i updated my machine?
good question.
I have no idea.
how would I know? (ha!, but really that is a serious question.)
I purchased a new hard-drive in Jan....maybe I need to go back to "my mac guy"?
Can you tell this is not my forte!?
and I have no idea what version of iMovie I have (had?) because I cannot get it to open to find out..is there another way to find out?
thanks

A reboot should be enough to make it work.
Just restart your computer.
Otherwise, make sure you're an administrator - as if you're not, it could be that the administrator put a restiction.

Safari doesn't open anymore on macbook pro

My Safari application
in my macbook pro does not open anymore what should I do?

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
If Safari crashes on launch and you don't have another web browser, you should be able to launch Safari by starting up in safe mode.
You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.
After removing the malware, remember to reset your home page in all the web browsers affected, if it was changed.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

Preview app doesn't open anymore after Maverick installation

Since Maverick installation, I can't open my pictures in Preview. The Preview application doesn't open anymore. Neither does the App Store, nor the 'software update'
Any idea what to do?

Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library", then go to Containers folder and com.apple.Preview and delete container plist. Now relaunch Preview and test.
EDIT: Oops, 10.7... it may be in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.plist. I'm not running 10.7 right now.

FC 6 doesn´t open anymore!!

FC 6 doesn´t open anymore. It seems to start opening, but disappears. I removed the "Final Cut Pro User Data" folder from the Preferences folder and the "com.apple.finalcutpro.plist". No success.
I formatted my computer and tried to reinstall FC. The same problem. It seems to start opening, but disappears. It doesn´t ask me for the registration number, nothing happens but if I try to install FC 5, it works!?!
What can I do?
Thank you very much for your support.

Too late now, but this is the correct way to manually delete FCP Preferences:
Open a Finder window. Set the view mode to columns:
Click the house icon that has your name next to it.
Click the folder "Library" in the next column.
Find and click the folder "Preferences" in the next column.
Find and click the folder "Final Cut Pro User Data" in the next column.
Move the files "Final Cut Pro 6.0 Prefs", "Final Cut Pro Obj Cache" and "Final Cut Pro Prof Cache" to the Trash and empty it.
[Preference Manager|http://www.digitalrebellion.com/pref_man.htm] will back up a stable set of working prefs and can also be used to delete them with a couple of clicks. Go download it and while you are there, check out the other fantastic tools that they have on offer for Final Cut Pro users.

It doesn´t ask me for the registration number
•Two ways to fix this, Digital Rebellion (linked above) also has the free *FCS Remover*.
Use it to clean out all the hidden and hard to find files that FCS puts on your machine.
Or...
•Go to the following location in the Finder:
Hard Drive/Library/Application Support/Pro Apps. Delete the file: *Final Cut Studio User ID*.
Go to: Hard Drive/Library/Receipts and delete all the FCS related .pkg files.
Now try the installation of FCS 2 again. When it is done, use Software Update to get the latest version and patches. Use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions on your system disk and restart the computer when it's done.

After upgrading to Aperture 3.4 it doesn't open anymore.

After upgrading to Aperture 3.4 it doesn't open anymore. Every listed suggestion in forums did not help.
After repairing till 99% Aperture closed. It happened with all my libraries, small and great. All of them can be opened in iPhoto.
After placing aperture.app to the trash can and putting it back to programs again, after a restart, I even couldn't find in preferences com.apple.aperture.plist file anymore. Apple please help!

After placing aperture.app to the trash can and putting it back to programs again,
How did you put it back to programs? The idea is to make a complete reinstall
The problem is:
There is a problem with the Aperture installer. In some cases the installation is not complete, if you update on top of a recent version.
For most posters here (there must be 20 and more discussions by now) it helped to reinstall Aperture after removing the Application from the Applications Folder and the reinstalling again.
If you installed Apperture initially from the boxed retail version, reinstall from the CD/DVD.
If you installed from the AppStore, download again from the AppStore.
If you unlocked the Trial or bought online previous to the AppStore, use the saved installer or download the Trial again.
http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/Aperture/061-8328 .20101020.AprE3/ApertureTrial3.1.dmg
Upgrade immediately after installing the previous version; you cannot open your current library with the previous version.

Just for the record:
To remove the preferences:
The Preferences are in your User Library, Preferences folder:
The User Library is hidden by default. You can reveal it from the Finder's "GO" menu:
Finder > Go, then hold down the options ⌥ key, until the Library appears in the drop-down menu, select it and open the Library folder. Then go to the "Preferences" sub folder and remove the file
your Home Folder/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Aperture.plist.
But I'd try to reinstall first - removing the preferences will only be a temporary fix, and the crashing may occur again, if you do not fix the broken Aperture installation.

I have an Iphone 5s with an account icloud that isn't an iCloud id, why? I cannot remove and the mail that names id doesn't exist anymore; what can I do?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
You will need to show patience with the procedure and be prepared to demonstrate without question that the account belongs to you. Don’t expect access to be restored immediately and if you aren’t the owner of the Apple ID registered to the device the account won’t be reset.

I just bought and downloaded Foldify. It doesn't open. What do I do?

I have bought and downloaded Foldify from iTunes, but it doesn't open. What can I do to activate it?

That's an iOS app, doesn't look like they make one for Macs either. So, you'll have to sync it to your iPad to actually use it.
If you don't have one of those, try Contacting Apple Support for a refund.
Foldify
Requirements: Compatible with iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G, iPad (3rd generation), iPad Wi-Fi + 4G, iPad (4th generation), iPad Wi-Fi + Cellular (4th generation), iPad mini and iPad mini Wi-Fi + Cellular. Requires iOS 5.0 or later.

Yes, Acrobat 8 does not support Image Capture (ICA). Only way to scan using Acrobat is through TWAIN. Please contact HP to find out if they provide TWAIN driver for this scanner on Mavericks.

My system preferences wont open anymore, whats up

my system preferences wont open anymore, whats up

Hi xronjonesx,
To make sure that we are on the same page, you cannot open System Preferences. Have you tried opening it from the Apple Drop down menu? If you are still unsuccessful, then the next step would be to reinstall OS X Snow Leopard as that app is part of the operating system and the reinstallation with all the software updates afterwards will resolve the issue.
