HT2515 Can't launch iChat from dock or applications/finder, it won't open to set up new account. Suggestions?

When accessing iChat for the first time to set up an account, clicking on the iChat icon from either finder-applications, or from the dock, iChat will not open and take me to the account set up to create a new account. Suggestions?

HI,
If you go to Applications and click iChat once to highlight can you then do a Get Info ?
Apple/CMD ( or ⌘) and the i key together.
This will bring up the Info panel
Which version of iChat does it say it is ?
At OS X 10.7.3 it should be version 6.0.1
If this is OK then close the panel
Go to the Finder > Go Menu and hold th ALT key down - then Select Library from the list.
Open the Preferences folder.
Find com.apple.ichat.plist and com.apple.ichatAgent.plist plus th ones with AIM and Jabber in the File names.
Drag them all to the Trash
Restart iChat.
If iChat is NOT at version 6.0.1 then download and reinstall the COMBO version of the OS  X 10.7.3 Update over what you have.  (this should Update iChat)

  • Can't launch games from GeForce GPU

    I can only launch games from the Intel GPU (which is shockingly good on USF4, Saints Row IV, Gat Out Of Hell and other games it shouldn't be running so well).... But can't launch with my GeForce GT 750m. Now check this out: I recently reformatted and this happened. I've tried the newest drivers, older drivers, even the extremely outdated ones from the HP site... Both the intel and Nvidea... I've tried uninstalling both of them (completely) and re-installing. I am at a complete loss and doubt anyone here will be able to help me, but it's far better than sending this thing into be repaired by the incompetent, rude, mindless, lazy people at the HP Repair center. (I paid $250 for a watranty, but fear using it again because all the do is damage my computer and break something new every time they fix something. Likeseriously, I feel sorry for people who actually pay for HP repairs as they just mindlessly replace things that aren't broke and do an even more shady job than China) 

    I was able to still purchase TV Shows and Music individually, but the darn games wont delete. Today I ordered a 3G Nano as a X-mas gift for my son and just want to buy the new version of Tetris, but some games that I was considering for my 5G Video in the past wont go away.......
    I have recently rebuilt my library file (very painful) and the games are STILL THERE! The shopping cart items appear to be linked to our Apple ID's and not the iTunes library.xml or DB file.
    Hopefully Apple will get this fixed soon!

  • Launching iStore from jDeveloper gives Application Error

    Hi All,
    Launching iStore from Jdeveloper gives application error. I am new to this arena. Here is the actual description.
    We are on 11.5.9 system however applied the RUP1 of Sales and Marketing for 11.5.10 which inturn gave us the 11.5.10 iStore.
    I am using jDeveloper 10g with J2SE 1.4.2_06 as per the instruction. Intially all the test files for db , session worked fine as per the suggestions from oracle Metalink Note# 419887.1 . I could also load the login page initially though upon entering the login details it gets me to the same application error page. After some clearning of cache files and reloading the jdeveloper this time it does not even take me to the login page and gives the application error message.
    Here is the acutal message : The application is currently not available or an unexpected error has occured. Please try again later.
    If this message persists, please contact the system administrator.
    I can login to the UI from the actual server but not sure why it does not work from the jdev. Please guide me and let me know what went wrong. Here is the sample guest log file.

  • Calendar won't open from dock or applications

    I downloaded Mavericks--calendar won't open from dock or applications--help please

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.

    When I choose to open a new tab from a website, such as facebook, it always opens it in a new window. How do I change this to just opening a new tab. I tried changing the tab settings but it did not work. I did not have the problem until I started using firefox 4.

    It is probably a JavaScript link.
    You can probably force it where you want it with a keyboard shortcut
    either "Ctrl+click" or "Ctrl+Shift+click". see

    how do I set a new account as default in safari when I send emails from a web page
    thanks in advance

    In the Composing pane of Mail's preferences window, look for the pop-up menu labeled "Send new messages from." Select the desired account there.
    Note, though, that this won't change the behavior when replying to a message... in that case, the reply will be sent from the account that received the message, unless you specify differently at that time.

  • How can I launch configurator from host application in a specefic language.

    Hi,
    I want to access R12 configurator from a host application and I have no problems accessing it.
    But I want that the configurator should Launch in Japanese Language. Can I specify any XML parameter to the UIServlet to achieve this or is there any other Method?
    Thanks

    Per the "Deploying a User Interface that Supports MLS" section in Chapter 14 ("Multiple Language Support") of the Oracle Configurator Implementation Guide:
    "When a host application launches Oracle Configurator to configure an item, the language specified in the database ICX session ticket is passed to Oracle Configurator.  Oracle Configurator uses this information to determine which translated text to retrieve from the database and display in the UI."
    So essentially, Configurator will display the same language that the hosting application is displaying, the language the user has logged into EBS with.  (Of course, translated text will only appear in Configurator if you have supplied translations in the CZ_LOCALIZED_TEXTS table.)  If you need Configurator to display a different language than its hosting application, that would require a customization of the initialization string the hosting application sends to Configurator, specifying a different icx_session_ticket parameter value.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I launch apps from backup hard drive?

    i just started using Time Machine and an external drive. Shortly after that, PowerPoint 2004 is acting srangely. It takes a long time to load, then will only let me open from templates, etc. When I click 'Open Other', I get a HUGE window with no info. Also tried using OPEN from the file menu, and then it hangs. Only way I can open a presentation is by clicking on the presentation icon and letting that launch PowerPoint.
    I'm not super technically inclined so I need some help. I'd like to know if I can launch PowerPoint from my external drive, to make sure that the Time Machine version is OK. If so, can I restore PowerPoint using Time Machine?

    NO. you can't do that. what you can do is restore the application from the TM and launch it from your main drive. However, most likely the problem is not with the application itself but with some preference files in your home directory. to test that create a new user account and try running Power Point there.
    If so, can I restore PowerPoint using Time Machine?

  • Can I launch apps from safari?

    Hi
    I was looking for sample code about webapps on iPhone and found this link:
    http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/iPhoneIntegration/index.html
    With that sample I can access some iPhone applications, but I haven't found nothing else and I dont know if there are others apps that I can access.
    So, Can I launch an arbitrary app from safari?
    If so, How do I do that?
    Thank you
    Carlos Asensio

    As I can see in the link about the iPhone integration sample you can do something like that:
    < a href="tel:408-555-5555" > call me < /a >
    but I have not found it documented anywhere
    And I thought that this would be a great place to found it:
    http://developer.apple.com/iphone/devcenter/docs/documentation/AppleApplications /Reference/SafariHTMLRef/index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002049
    I want to know if I can do any other tasks with safari and where is documented.

  • Can't launch executable from SQL Server Agent Job

    I'm trying to launch an .exe from SQL Server Agent Job and basically nothing happens. I created a job, with 1 step, type is Operating System (CmdExec), run as sql agent service account, and in the command box I typed "start notepad" (no quotes). The job owner is set to administrator. I manually start the job, it processes successfully yet notepad does not launch. I've tried with other .exe's and result is the same. Any advice? Thanks!

    I tried several things and not just with notepad, I tried a couple other small executables. I've tried:
    c:\notepad       --(I copied it to c:\ thinking it maybe it's not finding the file.)
    c:\notepad.exe
    notepad.exe
    start notepad
    start notepad.exe
    and also launching it from a batch file.
    If I use just notepad the job hangs saying it's executing and I have to stop it. If I use start notepad it comes back as executed but actually nothing happens, ie, notepad does not launch. I've tried different security settings within SQL Server (ie assigning all available default roles to the login at the same time and individually one at a time) with identical results. SQL Server is loging in with local administrator priviledges and so is SQL Server Agent. My settings are the default installation settings (for Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 2005) except that I read the BOL page "Configuring SQL Server Agent" which indicates the permissions needed for the following:
    Adjust memory quotas for a process
    Act as part of the operating system
    Bypass traverse checking
    Log on as a batch job
    Log on as a service
    Replace a process level token
    And they have been set. Still the same. BTW, I get the same result when trying to launch the file using xp_cmdshell with all the variations, and the proxy account for xp_cmdshell has been set to a login with administrator priviledges....
    I think it's some security setting in Windows Server, if only because I think I've tried all the settings within SQL Server...
    BTW, also, nothing is setup for Proxies under the SQL Server Agent node, but I don't think I should need to if I'm using the administrator level login...

  • Can't remove icons from dock

    I purchased a brand new macbook pro today, and I have been trying to remove certain icons from the dock for the last half hour. I am completely unable to click and drag the icons, not even to reposition them on the dock. Also, when I hold the control button and click on an icon on the dock, the "remove from dock" option is completely absent. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks!

    Open the Terminal in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and run:
