IBooks will not open any books after relocating home folder

I added an SSD to my MacPro running 10.9. Because my home folder is too large for this disk, I relocated it to a large conventional HD.  Now, iBooks.app will not open any of my ePub or multi-touch eBooks.  PDFs are opened in Adobe Reader, just as before.  I've booted into the Recovery disk and corrected permissions but that didn't help.
How can I straighten this mess out.  MacOS X will not allow me to delete the iBooks app.

  • The new version of iBooks will not open on my iPad(3gen) after it was installed. Reinstalling makes no difference. It opens then closes right away. Any fix??

    Anybody else have this problem?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

    If you can't open a particular ibook then try deleting it from the bookshelf via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf, and (assuming that it's still in your country's store) redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app (or if you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes library sync it back from there).

  • After reloading adobe creative suite cs3 on my mac 10.4.11 acrobat will not open any pdfs it previously opened. help!

    after reloading adobe creative suite cs3 on my mac 10.4.11 acrobat will not open any pdfs it previously opened. help!

    hello.   hey, thanks very much for writing back.  i got some good info with a search or two.  (info about what regedit is and what corresponds to it in OS X -- regedit allows you to edit "preference" keys for individual programs,  OSX's equivalent for these keys are the .plists in User & System: Preferences and Application Support)
    what i ended up doing was uninstalling Premiere Pro (not the suite, just PPro).   Then i deleted a few preference files:
    from User /Preferences/Adobe:
    com.adobe.AdobePremierePro.plist
    com.Adobe.Premiere Pro.5.0.plist
    and from System Preferences:
    the file:  Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs
    and..
    /.../Premiere Pro/5.0/...
    AMEPrefs.xml     (i noticed that there's also a preference file in Media Encoder's own folder so i didn't sweat this one)
    Debug Database.txt
    Placeholder Preset.epr
    PostEncodeCmds.pref
    PresetCache.xml
    Trace Database.txt
    NOTE:
    of course i don't know if deleting any files beyond the 2 .plist files in User Prefs was necessary, but...  it seems to have worked.
    I then reinstalled Premiere Pro CS5, and fired up an old project and i've got playback of HD and DV files, and snappy editing and rendering,  so hopefully i'm good to go.   I'm just going to stick with v5.0.0 because i actually don't remember ever having any trouble with it, and i don't remember v5.0.4 adding anything i was 'missing' or 'needed'
    hopefully, this thread will be useful for any future folks that run into trouble - and it's got a solution for both Windows and OS X
    happy editing,
    peace

  • Firefox will not open ANY site. Wont work AT ALL. Nothing seems to be working.

    Firefox will not open ANY site. It worked last night, but not today. I uninstalled it many times, didn't worked. It displays the screen that says "unable to connect" yet chrome and explorer both work. I have disconnected and reconnected a few times, restarted my laptop, neither of those worked either. I have also tried turning "safe mode" off after re installing firefox, but again, that did not work. I need help :(.
    Although, before this, firefox was not letting me use voice recording sites or any site that let me watch television online. It would load the commercials, but not play the episode. It wouldn't even let me upload pictures to photobucket. However, it worked using chrome or explorer.

    Looks like a bunch of people have this problem. Anyone got any ideas to fix this???

  • Acrobat will not open any documents, HELP! Thank you!

    Adobe Acrobat will not open any documents, it tells me it is a trial, I click on license product and get a thank you for your Adobe Cloud subscription... but then when I try to open a pdf I get the same message it just keeps looping from trial will run out in 7 days to trial will run out in 13 days and I can never open a pdf. I am going to try and uninstall and reinstall. For most of us, not being able to open a pdf is comparable to not being able to work. This is totally UNacceptable. Clients and bosses are counting on my being able to do my job, I can't say to them, "Oh well the dog "Adobe" ate my homework." PLEASE fix this Adobe! Thank you.
    Here is a screen shot of the messages...
    I  uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled from Adobe Application Manager, thought all was great when it asked for my user name and password, then when I clicked Launch... same issue. FRUSTRATING! Any one have a fix? I even created a pdf using InDesign, made sure I had View PDF after exporting checked and still got that awful Trial box. The pdf did show up in my documents, but I can not open it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Thank you Manish-Sharma, I followed the instruction in the thread, and for the first time in a week I can actually open a PDF. I am not sure if this will be a permanant fix, we will see on the 30 day mark. I really appreciate that you read my question and gave me an answer that allowed me to open Acrobat. I also opened Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and AfterEffects. They all opened with the exception of a small glitch when I opened Illustrator which was cleared up in moments. See screetshot.
    Thank you again! Much appreciated!

  • Itunes on W8 will not play any files after upgrade to 11.0.4.4

    After following the prompt and updating Itunes on Windows 8 to version 11.0.4.4 on 6 June, Itunes no longer plays any audio or video files from my library. Pick a file and Itunes shows that it is playing (Pause button only) however nothing happens. The file simply does not play.  Windows Media Player will not open any files. VLC will play flash video files but with no sound.  Video played in IE10 seems to play ok including sound.   Anyone have any suggestions.  I can uninstall but figure I'll get teh same version when I re-install.   Everything worked fine prior to installing this upgrade.

    Resolved by running W8 System Restore to a point prior to the last Itunes update. Now back on the previous version of Itunes. Windows Media Player working correctly with all file types. Itunes working correctly also.  I'm quite happy not to re-apply any updates from Apple for a while.

  • HT204150 icloud will not open any applicatons on pc.  Contact, calendar etc.

    icloud will not open any applications on pc.  contact, calendar, etc.

    I can use icloud.com in IE10 but the odd thing is that I believe iCloud in not compliant with IE10 and needs to run in Compatibility mode. But for some reason IE10 see's it as compliant. You can go into the Compatibility mode through Compatibility view settings and manually addin icloud.com. As for icloud in my opinion its really forgot about the rest of the world that does not use a Mac, iPhone or iPad. I cannot get the settings to work with icloud with any Android device, or using Chrome browser even though selecting display desktop site gets you a slightly broken icloud.com on Chrome browser in Android. Although many things dont work right. Same goes for IE10 as I have expieienced with crating a email message. It appears as though the backspace after the first line of a message does not work and I could not reposition cursor either. I am so glad I don't have to use icloud for much because I doubt I could deal with it as it is now. I guess another option is to try Chrome on your PC or Firefox?
    Chrome should work as it is a WebKit based browser as is Safari. If iCloud works with Safari it should work with Chrome. But anymore their is no guarantee's.

  • LR5 will not open ANY existing catalog

    LR5.4, MacBook Pro, all catalogs on 256 SSD intermal, photos on external drive. Experienced LR user (since beta tester for v1) I am a CC subscriber, but LR is previous buy and under serial number.
    New problem: LR will not open any of my 5 catalogs. Will create a new catalog (empty), then will not open it. On program open, choose any catalog from window: after a minute or so, goes to pizza wheel, then quits. No error message, nothing. System Force Quit shows still open, "...not responding."
    Actions:
    1. Downloaded copy, reinstalled over existing: no change.
    2. Use Time Machine to go back 48 hrs (when it was working) and Restore of entire User Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom: no change.
    Before I lose an extensive preference file or other setup, I'm wondering if anyone has some help here.

    My recommendations:
    1. Reset the preference file (I know you don't want to) Follow these instructions. http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?14226-Resetting-(or-Trashing-)-the-Lightroom -Preferences-file
    2. If that doesn't work, I would recommend. Uninstall - fresh download of LR - reinstall.

  • Purchased new camera nikon d7100 and camera raw will not open any nef files, talked to tech support and they assured me an update would fix issue, did update and have  same issue still

    I have photoshop cs5 and after purchasing a nikon d7100, photoshop will not open any of the nef files like it did with my nikon d90, I contacted support and they assured me after update that issue would be resolved...still not resolved, any suggestions?

    Good day!
    Please check this list to see which version of ACR supports the camera:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    Then please check your version (Photoshop > About Plug-In > Camera Raw).
    As you should see your version is not up to the task.
    You can either buy a license for a more current version of Photoshop (CS6 is still available) or switch to the … Cloud License model or use the free DNG Converter.

  • Have just upgraded to version 4 and when I go to Goggle search for a website it shows me a list but will not open any.

    Have just upgraded to version 4 and when I go to Goggle search for a website it shows me a list but will not open any. If I use the bookmarks all of the websites open perfectly. I've closed Firefox down and opened again and a message says "how embarassing" and tells me to restore or start a new session. Have tried both but still will not let me open any websites on the google search page.

    . I did however, delete the majority of my photos off of iPhoto after I backed them up because I needed room in my library.
    exactly how did you delete these photos?

  • My Mac will not open any 'save' or 'open' dialog boxes

    My mac will not open any 'save' or 'open' dialog boxes, this includes saving in photoshop and uploading photos to Facebook. The dialog boxes do not appear - please help?

    Since you're running Lion, just try a new system install - it won't affect your data or apps, but you should, anyway, have a backup regardless.
    Boot to your Recovery partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting. At the Recovery window, first repair permissions again, then verify and, if necessary, repair your hard drive. Then quite Disk Utility and elect to reinstall the OS anew - it will only overwrite system files and the like, not touching your data, apps, etc. It may take awhile to complete.
    After completion, reboot and see if the problem still exists. If it does, I'm just at a loss...

  • Firefox will not open any pdf files

    FF will not open any pdf files with built in viewer or adobe. I have set applications in all different ways with no luck. PDF works with IE.
    I have ff 33.1.1 and Win 7 and i have tried all suggestions concerning pdf. I even downloaded ff again, uninstalled oldff, and installed new. no luck. all i get is a pop up stating ...download is in progress, please wait.... but it never loads. started after last update. Is ther a way to delete the last update to firefox?
    thanks

    Hello,
    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
    #Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac).
    #In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Firefox only shows untitled page and "done" in the lower left, will not open any page.

    When I open Firefox I only get an untitled tab and "done" in the lower left. It will not open any web page. I have XP. I think this started when I installed AVG 2011. I have uninstalled the avg and still can't get it to work. My internet connection is work as I am getting my email through Outlook. I recovering to before this all happened and that did not help. Also, IE won't open, so I have no web browsing available.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.<br />
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.<br />
    See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls<br />
    See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Error_loading_websites
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
