I just realized my ical won't open since loading lion os also

thanks smokemonster, I assume you meant in skype preferences. I shows that the built in isight is being used

If you have a Time Machine backup and know a date when iCal was working correctly, you can try restoring iCal's plist files in your user directory's Library/Preferences folder: com.apple.iCal.plist and com.apple.iCal.helper.plist. Many times, iCal issues can be solved by replacing the plist files.
Note: Changing plist files is a destructive process. That is, if you restore back to Sept. 2012, all appointment information you've entered since then will be gone. So, it's best to do your TM restores of these files in the smallest time increments possible.

  • FaceTime won't open since Mountain Lion Upgrade

    Ever since upgrading my retina macbook pro to Mountain Lion, my FaceTime App won't open. The camera works just fine in PhotoBooth, so I don't think that's the issue. The application itself just won't open. No errors or anything come up. When I right click the icon in the dock, it just says "Application Not Responding".
    Any ideas???
    Thanks!

  • Does anyone know why pages, numbers, iPhoto, keynote, etc won't open since installing lion?

    It's iWork '09 which is the lastest version. iPhoto isn't working either but iMovie is, I'm so baffled and it's really frustrating. I've never had any problems at all with my mac. The crazy thing is, it's almost as though they are open but I can't see them? Is this possible? I thought it could have something to do with the multiple desktops that are available on Lion but I scrolled across and.... nothing.
    I really appreciate your help. Thank you.

    After doing some research I'm afraid that eventually you have to delete and reinstall iWork.
    But I suggest, that you prior to such a drastic step check the following:
    Have you installed the Lion upgrade to iWork 9.1?
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/25548/apple-iwork
    Corrupted fonts also can cause this behavior, so check the fonts by opening font book, click left on user and then in the menu bar on file -> validate
    That will show up any problematic font. If there are red warnings, delet the font.

    Hi Terence,
    I got your note and was able to complete the first part, but when I came to Finder, Go To Folder and I typed in both     /var/db/receipts/    and /private/var/db/receipts all I get is NOT FOUND message.  I tried several times, but no luck.
    Please advise.

  • Safari won't open since I installed Firefox.

    Safari won't open since I installed Firefox. I keep getting a window that asks me if I want to "Reopen" Safari in a large window that includes error messages, lots of them. I click on "Reopen" and a smaller window opens up with the same option to "Reopen", but Safari just goes back to the large window again; the one with all the error messages.

    Quit the application. Force quit if necessary.
    Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock. From the menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    to get rid of any cookies or other data left by the server. Open your Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.

  • Since Loading Lion, my MainStage won't open. Any thoughts?

    Since Loading Lion, my MainStage won't open. Any thoughts?

    Same here. Idk what to do. It just sits on the initializing screen and doesn't move. I use it often for a band I play with and I need it to work for a gig. Any thought?

  • IPhoto won't open since last update V9.5.1

    My iPhoto won't open since the latest update (V9.5.1) was installed.  I do not get any error message, the icon bounces a couple times and then nothing happens.  I've tried the following solutions found in other forums:
    -Using "iPhoto Library Manager" to rebuild library and repair iPhoto, did not work because "iPhoto failed to open"
    -Removing the file iPhotoLock.data from Finder>Pictures>Right Click iPhoto Library>Show Package Contents, this also did nothing.
    I can't find any other solution and I'm worried that I may lose my pictures (over 20GB of pics).
    Is someone else having similar issues?

    You don't always have a good current backup?  Without one you are 100% guarenteed to lose everything including your photos sooner or later - things do fail - Time Machine is included on yur Mac - use it - you eed a large external hard drive that is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) - once set up it is automatic and will save you when things go South
    For now all you need is a copy of the iPhoto library
    I stated in my original message that I have the most current version of iPhoto, iPhoto '11 V9.5.1.  Is there a way to reverse the update because I had no problems with it until the update was done automatically.
    Yes - but since things are not wroking ti is important to verify facts - not work on assumptions
    No - you can not "undo the update" easily but you can fix things

  • Ichat won't open since new hd installation? help.

    ichat won't open since new hd installation? help.
    since installing a bigger hd my ichat won't open. the shortcut is still there and when i click it it bounces in the toolbar a few times then dissapears. i have tried to delete and re-install but i cannot delete it.
    im on osx version 10.8.3, on a macbook pro.
    please help, thank you

    HI,
    I feel there is slightly more to this story.
    Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.x) does not have iChat.
    It has Messages which is iChat+ as it has had iMessages added to it.
    (I think that a Mountain Lion Upgrade is part of the picture.)
    This suggests you Changed the Hard Drive and either Installed or cloned the OS on to the (new) Drive.
    At this point you may have migrated your Mac User Account from  different computer or the old Hard Drive.
    If you were Migrating apps from an old drive or computer then it is technically possible to "install" iChat in the Applications Folder but it will not work.
    Each version of iChat has to "Match" the OS it is on.
    Broadly speaking that is iChat 4 is in Leopard (OS X 10.5.x) and iChat 5 is in Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.x)
    In fact it goes deeper than this in that incremental updates in the OS include (sometimes) the updates to iChat.
    This means that by OS X 10.5.8 at the end of the Leopard Updates iChat is at version 4.0.9
    Snow Leopard gets to OS X 10.6.8 but iChat 5 only gets to version 5.0.3 at this point.
    Open your Applications Folder.
    Does this contain iChat, Messages or in fact Both ?
    If you then highlight and then use CMD and i keys (Get Info)  what version information do the app(s) display ?
    The Messages App should not be put inside any other folder.
    I have seen where people have created "Messaging" folders putting MSN, Skype and Messages or iChat in the same folder to "tidy" the Applications folder.
    This can mess up updates.
    In fact if you have done this the DOCK item may point to something that did not get Updated to Mountain Lion.

  • I'm having all kinds of problems since loading Lion and I really wish I hadn't bought it yet. Even after the software update today, 1. my modem still won't work, 2. Photoshop Elements produces muddy photo prints, etc.  Anybody at Apple listening?

    I'm having all kinds of problems since loading Lion and I really wish I hadn't bought it yet. Even after the software update today, 1. my modem still won't work, 2. Photoshop Elements produces muddy photo prints, 3. View preferences in windows don't hold,  etc.  Anybody at Apple listening?  Anybody else out there having these kinds of problems?

    10.7 was horrible unstable so I waited until 10.7.1 and tried it again. Well I have to say that it is still a defective OS. I am reverting to Snow as we speak from my carbon clone copy.. This is really the worst OSX I have ever used. It gives me random Kernel panics for no reasons, unstable airport and hundreds of small issues that are just not necessary. For instance I can't use QuickTime in Lion to trim a videoclip ( the UI goes mad and the trimslider becomes inoperable and hangs the Player window ) while in Snow it is no problem. Itunes gives me crackling sound when the equalizer is turned on, Graphical glitches in Photoshop, games crashing, Preview.app not working with some pdfs, so I need Adobes reader which I never used before.. It is definately not ripe for mass usage. Might 10.7.2 or 10.7.3 fix it, but not yet.
    * and just for the records : the hardware is absoltely ok. Because in Snow it works as it should. ( So many Lion fanbois are talking : "your Ram is defect", defintely NOT. - Lion is defect! ).
    Shame on you Apple.

  • ICal won't open

    This started a couple of days ago. iCal will not open at all, it just crashes on launch and I get the Crash Report box. Deleted the plist file (and other associated files) without success. It opens in a test user account.
    Ideas?
    MacBook Pro running Lion 10.7.2

    AB,
    If you have never started iCal on that computer, it is possible that the file is non existant.
    Just to be sure you are looking in the right place, the full path for the file if iCal was ever running is: Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder.
    If you do not find the plist file in this location, I recommend that even though you are reporting problems with only one application that you use Multiple applications quit unexpectedly or fail to launch, by Dr. Smoke as a troubleshooting checklist.
    ;~)

  • Itunes store just stopped working, and won't open

    I've been using itunes for years, on Windows 7, suddenly it won't open at all.  It freezes the window as well.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Same problem
    I have installed 10.5, it first happened on 10.4 version.  Can anyone help?

    I have the same problem.. i dont know what to do!

  • ICal won't open at all.

    I quit iCal and shut down on Oct. 2 @ 7:20 am. Powered up and iCal failed to open on boot as usual. Clicked on iCal in dock, icon bounced once then dead. In Finder/apps, iCal has a red negative sign on the folder.
    Wha's up?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    The do not enter sign on the iCal Application usually indicates the program is damaged (this can happen for a variety of reasons, but force quitting is one I see every now and then on the boards).
    You can try downloading and installing the last OS update which includes the iCal update: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048
    If the do not enter sign is still there, remove iCal to the trash from the Applications folder and then reinstall it following this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3415
    Once reinstalled you will need to install the Combo update again http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048.
    Hope that helps.

  • OSX 10.5.1 - Mail shuts down - iCal won't open

    I installed 10.5.1 last night and can't check my eMail or iCal anymore. I opened Mail, then iCal. When iCal opens, it shuts down both. Now, when I open Mail alone, it shuts down 5 seconds later, without getting new mail. If I open iCal alone, iCal starts to open, then shuts down. You never see a calendar. Can I uninstall 10.5.1?

    SOLUTION! After trying everything I could think of, I downloaded the 10.5.1 update directly from apple.com then RE-updated my mac. (I'd previously used Software Updater.) After the restart, I have my mail and ical back! Yippee. Apple computers rock, but these pimples take hours and joy from my life. Apple - you stink (for now). What a way to spend Thanksgiving.
