I can't seem to open iMovie from the dock
Whenever i double click on the iMovie icon, nothing happens.
However, when i hold on the iMovie icon, the window pops up. But when i try to click on the window, it disappears again!
It's so frustrating, does anyone know what the problem is?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you!!

Hi,
Not sure what your issue is, but try this...
Quit iMovie... Remove the iMovie Icon from the Dock...
( You do this by Holding Down Command and dragging the Icon from the Dock...)
Go to your Applications Folder and Drag iMovie back to the Dock.
Try it Now...
Also it is never a good idea to post your email address on a public forum. I will ask the Hosts to remove it for you...
Cheers.

Since upgrading to Maverick from Mountain Lion I am unable to open Pages from the Dock. When I click on the pages icon in the dock the icon just keeps bouncing up and down. However, I can open pages by clicking on the icon in the Apps folder. No problems prior to upgrading to Maverick.
Quit Pages. Drag its icon out of the Dock. Create a new one by dragging the application into the Dock. Test.

When I open safari from the dock it opens as a small window at the top of the screen that is totally white and does not have a tool bar or exit options. All I can do is force quit to exit. What do I do?
With Safari open, press Command , (comma) to open Safari Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
Turn that off, quit (or force quit) Safari then relaunch to test. -

When I open Pages from the Dock, the page comes up on the screen but immediately hangs up with the rainbow circle spinning. I finally have to force quite to make it go away. It does not ask me to choose a template. This is sporadic, sometimes working, sometimes not. What is going on?
Helo,
Did you try to delete Pages' preferences file(s) in the folder your-user-name/Library/Preferences ?
There are one or more (depends on your OS X version) file like "com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist"
You can also repair permissions with Disk Utility in the folder Applications/Utilities.
Choose the hard drive were Pages is and click the button "Repair permissions".
Or you can re-install Pages.
Hope this will help. -
I am having problems gettting my mail to work ... Mac telling me that my start up disk id full and to delete some files to free up space ... have done this but when i open mail from the dock it just brings up the colour wheel and nothing happening ... it shows when you right click on the mail icon that " application not responding"
If your hard drive is getting full, you need to free up, at least, 20 GBs of space on your iMac's hard drive.
If your Mac is running a fairly recent version of OS X, here are some general guidelines.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Other things you can do to gain space.
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it run the automatic ans S.M,A.R.T. tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the tabs that have the ability to clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck! -
I am suddenly unable to open mail from the dock. dock shows mail is up and running, but stamp icon does not respond when clicked, there is no mail window opened, and will not quit. when double clicked, get new mail is not an option and I get no response with other actions.
I am retrieving mail on my phone with no problem. this just began happening, no updates or problems with anything else.
help?command-option-esc keys and force quit Mail. Then relaunch.

Mail worked fine this morning, then, when I went to open the program this afternoon, the icon bounced in the dock but would not boot either when I tried to open it from the dock or from the applications folder.
The nib file is the visual part of the user interface, so it has either got damaged or gone missing, which (unless you have been moving things around) is a little bit worrying.
I would suggest
make sure that you have a current backup
run disk utility to check your disk
if your disk is ok,
put in your installation disk and do an optional installation of Mail
download and run the latest combo upgrade -
I have a 2009 iMac running on Mavericks. Since a few days, when I open the Download Map from the dock, I only see "empty" icon symbols. When I leave the map open the icons re-appear after some 20 seconds. When I re-open the downloads, the icons are empty again.
How do I get the icons to behave in a normal way again?bro I just had this issue its as simple as swiping to the right of each album artwork that does not display in the list view (On your Iphone.) Once you swipe to the right on every album that does not display in the list view you will see the delete option come up. Hit delete! Dont be scared. Do this with every album art that does not show up and then resync your Iphone. Go to the list view again and all of your missing album artwork will be displayed in both the list overview and close up landscape mode.

Hi Everybody
I have downloaded three "ready-made" websites for me and it is supposed to have Wordpress in as well. I can see the folders in my downloads but I can't open them. It refers to a "zip" file which I don't see nor a "dmg", only a blue folder. Can anyone help me to figure out how to get this open and set up on my computer? I guess you can tell I'm new and very frustrated. Thank you!It's not clear what you mean by 'see the folders in my downloads but I can't open them', although it seems possible that a zip file opened/unzipped to create them.
Perhaps if you include a screenshot, and/or a link to the site where you got these, and describe exactly what happens when you try to open a folder that won't open. -
Does anybody have encountered this problem, and if so, do you have a solution I could benefit from?
Thanks

I installed Lion on my late-2009 Mac Mini a few weeks ago. Within the last week, a strange problem has cropped up. Just a few minutes after reboot, my Mac Mini stops opening applications. I can try to open applications from the dock, or the Applications folder, or Launchpad, and nothing opens. Applications that have already been opened appear to be unaffected, as long as I don't close them. If I quit an application, I cannot re-open it.
This does not appear to be related to any updates or changes. The problem began while my Mac Mini was on 10.7.1, and persisted after an upgrade to 10.7.2.Hello, how exactly did you move these other files, & what were they?

Since upgrading to Mavericks, when I open Entourage from the dock it opens the program and opens a new message window. Very annoying. If I open it from the application folder it opens to my inbox like it always has. Any ideas?
Thanks
Davethe problem has been solved for me following the process :
1 -close entourage
2 - start and follow the complete reconstruction of the entourage database ;
3 - in the "entourage" menu, disable "office reminds" or "office recall" (i don't know the exact name because my entourage is in french)
For me it has worked. when i click on the dock entourage shortcut it opens without showing the new message windows at start. -

You don't need iDVD unless you are going to make DVDs. If you are just trying to share files, iDVD won't help you at all.
What you want to do is in iMovie, choose File/Share/File, and export that way. It creates an .mp4 file that should be readable on Macs or Windows.
You could also File/Share/YouTube if you don't mind posting them to YouTube, because of course YouTube videos are watchable by any Mac or Windows computer made in the last 10 years.
