I am unable to get App Store, iMessage, Calendar and other Apple apps to open on my MacBook Pro. This just started this morning.

Any information will be helpful!

Thank you for responding. It wasn't doing anything when I clicked on it. I reinstalled the OS today and all is back to normal.

  • Software Update, App Store, Terminal, iCal and other Apple Apps will not open.

    Hi,
    I've exhausted all my search methods and still haven't fixed this issue. I have been disconnected from the internet for about 5 months up until now while continually using my MacBook Pro (early 2011) daily for work. Problems arose about a month and a half ago when I noticed the terminal would not open. I trashed the corresponding plist files as recommended by other websites and trouble tickets. Still no avail, the affected programs all seem to be original software that came with Mavericks. When I try to open any of them (Software Update..., App Store, Terminal, iCal, iTunes Store) nothing happens. The dock makes a space for the icon and then before anything even bounces it quickly closes the space again. I've tried opening the contents of the applications and running the root program directly.

  • Disallow app access to Calendar and Contacts by app in Profile Manager

    Is there a method to disallow app access to Calendar and Contacts by app within a profile and push that out via Profile Manager?
    I'm aware that you can do this on the device itself but I'd like to enforce policy.
    I'm guessing I'd need a custom profile.
    Thanks
    Tim

    Create a profile that contains an Restrictions profile and add thoase apps to the list of app you want to restrict.

  • App Store gift card to take money off the price of the macbook pro??

    Hi, I am going to be purchasing a MacBook pro and was wondering if Icould use an App store gift card to contribute to my purchase? In other words can I use the App Store gift card I have, to take money off the price off of the price?
    For my birthday I have been asking everyone to get me apple vouchers, and my brother got me an app store gift card, and was wondering if it could be used to buy my macbook pro?
    thanks

    The Mac and the iPad uses different operating systems (iOS in the iPad, and OS X in the Mac), and they use different applications. Pages has got two versions, one for iOS and another version for OS X, so if you have Pages for your iPad, you have to pay to have that application in your Mac

  • Ipad keeps crashing on every app, even on settings and other Apple made apps.  A memory application shows that the free memory is shrinking.

    EVERY app on the ipad is crashing back to the menu after a few seconds.  I have tried powering down, syncing.  There does not seem to be an app that can monitor what is causing the problem.  Every app that I have was downloaded from the app store, nothing is bootlegged. 

    Delete the last downloaded app from your iPad by holding down the app then tapping the circle with a x then tap Delete.
    If you aren't certain which app it was open iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / View My Account / Purchase History.
    You can always re download the app again without re buying.

  • How do I get my apps purchased on the app store if I had to replace my Hard drive on my Macbook Pro?

    I recently got a new hard drive for my laptop and lost everything, so I was wondering where i can go to retrive my apple purchases or if its even possible.

    You can re download previous purchases for free using the same Apple ID they were purchased with originally.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    If you have problems, you may need to authorize the Mac.
    Launch iTunes. From the iTunes menu bar click Store > Authorize This Computer
    Then try re downloading previous purchases from the Mac App Store.

  • Some Of My Apps Like AppStore and Software Update won't open on my MacBook Pro

    some of my major softwares like AppStore and SoftwareUpdate and ,,,, are not working!!!
    please help
    (I'm using Mavericks and Cant upgrade it!)

    A.
    You ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" or "MacCleanse" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.   
    The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below. If you use any iWork applications, you may need to delete them and redownload them from the App Store.
    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
    If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
    *The linked support article refers to OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.
    B.
    "Kerio Control" must be updated, reinstalled, or removed.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • Safari and other Apple Apps don't recognize a change in location in Network Settings

    I use my MBP on 2 networks. One at home without a proxy and another at the office with a Proxy. I used the location setting from network settings, but since Mountain Lion, I get problems to let Safari recognize the change and use/not use the proxy.
    When I do a location change, Safari, Mail, App Store had trouble to access the Internet. I have to close all the apps, open again, disconnect and connect the network cable again, go to network settings and disable the proxy then apply, then enable again and apply.
    After some of this combinations the Apps can reach the Internet again.
    Any advice? I change from networks at least one per day and is really frustrating try to reconnect after every location change.
    Thnaks

    Holy moly! This was driving me nuts and it was the simplest of problems. The application status was set to "Available" rather than "Available with Edit Links"!!!
    I swear I didn't make that change. It must have been my evil sleepwalking developer alter ego!! ;-> All good to go. Thanks for putting up with my posting.

  • I installed mountain lion but I lost iMovie and others apple apps

    I installed mountain lion in my macbook but now I lost imovie, iphoto and garageband. How take the apps again?

    I am unaware of Mountain Lion removing any applications. Did you erase your disk or something? If so, you will have to restore them from backup. You can use Migration Assistant to do that. If you purchased them from the App Store, you can download them again.

  • IDVD5 (and other Apple Apps) frequently crashing

    I am having a problem which has just recently started happening where iDVD will not even startup. It begins to, and then crashes shortly after clicking its icon in the dock. Several other Apple applications are also very unstable on my system. Mail crashes when attempting to open certain (but not all) messages. Safari crashes at certain webpages. Pages will not start (similar to iDVD, it crashes just after it starts).
    I have fixed permissions, checked the disk, scanned for viruses. Don't know what is the cause. BTW these crashes only occur under 10.4.2; all these apps work properly if I start the computer under 10.3.9.
    Anyone have any suggestions about what could be the cause and what I might try?

    Patrick--
    This question might be better posed on a Tiger forum since it sounds like a OS problem, rather than IDVD.
    1st question that I would ask is how did you install Tiger? Clean wipe of your hard drive(make sure you back up your system 1st....I use Carbon Copy Cloner) and a fresh install of Tiger might do trick.

  • HT1267 I am unable to send messages on my iPhone.  I am getting an error when I send it. This just started this morning.

    This is my first timeo n Apple Support.  Suddenly this morning I am unable to send messages through my iPhone.  I can send messages to one number, but all the other numbers I am sending to I receive an error message.  Also, I can receive messages from the one number I can send to, but am unable to receive messages from any other number.  What do I do to fix this? 

    Hi Steve,
    No he has not turned iMessage off, infact when he sends me a message thru iMessage it says 'delivered'. I am at my wits end nd I don't know what to do anymore.

  • My MacBook Pro has just started getting really warm for no apparent reason, any ideas why?

    Should I use my Apple Care, or is there a quick fix?

    you see what is running on your computer (because CPU usage is what makes the procesor(s) get hot) by opening the application "Activity Monitor" in the folder "/Applications/Utilities", then select the "CPU" tab (at the bottom) and sort the information in the top section by "%CPU":
    This will show you what application is using the most CPU time and is the most likely candidate for why your machine is warming up.  You can also quit all applications, then reboot to see if that resolves the problem.

  • Preview, iPhoto and other Apple apps not working

    I upgraded to Lion. My Time Machine backup disk saved me. Lion has been fraught with issues from the beginning of my experience with it. Why even release it? If this level of inconvenience and disruption was even remotely foreseeable, more tutorials should precede such an important, far-reaching software upgrade. How disappointing and how much more agravation is in store? I hope not much

    I have the Core 2 Duo in the white case, released late 2006. Definitely have been running Tiger on it (just checked and I am running 10.4.11), sent it away, got it back, and just noticed that these programs don't work and I have programs native to Leopard inexplicably on the computer for some reason. I don't really want to remove them though cause I would like to have them on in case I have to go to the Apple Store so I can point it out to them and ask some questions about why Tiger (the OS installed on the computer) applications are not working while Leopard applications are installed even though they don't work and shouldn't be on there.
