ICal wont open ?

Hi guys my first post in discussions
The last time i used iCal was about 2/3 years ago! but now i have an iPhone i want to use it but it fails to open.
i've read some of the other threads and have followed the instructions from one of them
+Often iCal problems can be rectified by refreshing the iCal plist file. Navigate to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder, and find the com.apple.iCal.plist file. Drag that file to your desktop, log out/in or restart and let us know what happens when you attempt to open iCal.+
I've done this and iCal still doesn't open, any ideas what i can do next ???
Thanks in advance

G,
The correct version of iCal for Tiger 2.0.5 (1069).
It appears as the Leopard version of iCal was installed on your 10.4.11 system, and it is not surprising that iCal is not functioning properly.
Just drag that version to the trash and reinstall iCal using Custom installs in Mac OS X 10.4. Then download and reinstall the Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update (PPC) to bring iCal up to the most current version available for your G4 Cube.

  • ICal wont open due to issue with Webex plugin how do i get it to open or remove plugin

    Whenever I try to open iCal i get the message iCal quit unexpectedly while using the Webex Plugin plugin. don't know what to do next.

    Greetings,
    I use WebEx all the time and have never heard of an iCal / WebEx plugin but it sounded intriguing so I did some google searches and looked at Cisco's website and could find no reference there either.  If you have any idea where this plugin came from I would be curious to know (it might be useful if it were working).
    Try running the Mac Cisco-WebEx Uninstaller and see if that helps.
    What version of the Mac OS are you running?
    What version of iCal are you running?
    Create a new user account on the Mac: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
    Login to that user and test iCal -- does it work in this new user?
    Cheers.

  • HELP!!! Mail wont open

    Hi can someone pleaseeeeee help me with this problem. It all started about a month and half ago and i am unable to open mail. I have my mail in my dock and everytime i click on it i see "mail" at the top of the browser but the actual mail server or browser doesn't open. I dont know if this had to do with me downloading a mail notifier from google gmail and since then when i tried to open mail it stop working it wont open! i uninstalled the google app and it still wont open i tired everything i think, i even turned off the computer and back on and nothing. I have a mac book pro tiger 10.4.11 Please HELP! thanks in advance.

    First I'd backup your whole Mail folder, with a right Mouse click>Archive, move to a safe place, also move the file below to a safe place.
    Try moving this file first, then logout/in...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    If that doesn't work try the .plists in...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/
    If you wish to reinstall Mail, it's on your Install Disk.
    Custom installs in Mac OS X 10.4...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301229
    "Here's a list of all the custom installation options available with Optional Installs.mpkg:
    * Applications
    o Address Book 4.0
    o iCal 2.0
    o iChat 3.0
    o iTunes 4.7.1
    o Mail 2.0
    o Oxford Dictionaries
    o Safari 2.0
    o X11"
    Personally, I'd leave Mail just lie... it's like trying use an Etch-a-Sketch to replicate the Mona Lisa for me!
    I use these two...

    Can you start QuickTime on your computer?
    You'll probably have to search for the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and use it to remove QuickTime Player and iTunes. Then download and install the iTunes again.

    Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start.  You have insufficent privileges to start system svc.  Help?

    Download Itunes from Apple.com, not from within Itunes.
    Redo the install, following the below procedure.   However, when you re-install Itunes,  right click and run the install as administrator.   For Win 7, you have to hold down the cntrl and shift keys when you right click and then "run as administrator" will be an option.
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, Win 7 & later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Itunes wont open - compatibility error...

    hi,
    today I had a problem with moving songs from itunes to ipod. have had this issue in the past which was fixed by using ipod updater.
    this didnt seem to work so for first time in ages ran the itunes updater. I can no longer open itunes and get the following error.
    Quicktime unavailable
    itunes requires Windows 2000 or later
    Please make sure compatibility mode is disbaled in the compatibility tab of the properties of itunes.exe
    well....I tried to do this (I am not massively IT literate!), have tried selecting or deselecting compatibility on this tab....and still wont open....any ideas?
    im on windows XP professional.
    cheers in advance

    hiya!
    if I find the mp3 file on my hardrive and move it to ipod manually it still doesnt appear when I disconnect.
    that's normal. for the ipod to recognise a song it needs to be transferred to the ipod via itunes rather than dragged and dropped with Windows Explorer. see the note at the end of this article:
    iPod: Operating System or iTunes Reports the Disk is Full, But It Does Not Look Full
    ... try resetting the warnings on your ipod and trying another manual sync:
    Resetting iPod warnings
    do you get an error message show up after resetting warnings?

  • ITunes wont open, getting error message, hard drive crash

    i had my secondary hard drive die. My windows is on my C: all of my music was on my D:. Now iTunes wont open becuase it cant access D:. If I try to uninstall it tells me it cant find D:. If I try to re-install it says it cant find D:. I have cleaned the registry of iTunes, and it still wont reinstall. Any thoughts, thanks in advanced.

    hi Aaron!
    error 1327.Invalid Drive D:\
    hmmm. that one's consistent with the abrupt change of drive letters too.
    have you tried the InstallShield advice on the 1327?

  • ITunes wont open only error message

    iTunes wont open I only get an error message that reads. "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the My Music folder" My music is on an exernal hard drive and it worked before I upgraded and now it wont work.
    Please help

    hiya!
    it's best to leave the "My Music" folder on the C drive. it's a Windows special folder, so having it out on an external can cause weird problems if (say) the drive letter assignment for the external drive changes.
    okay, here's the best place to start:
    iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes
    ... but if you run into the complication where "My Music" doesn't appear as an option in TweakUI, try the alternate technique from the following Nigel Carpenter post:

  • Itunes Wont Open!!!Error -50

    My Itunes wont open ever since i upgraded to 6.0.before that everything worked fine.ive tried many of the techniques and none have worked.plz help me!!!

    hmmm. okay, if you're currently just getting the "itunes has encountered an error ..." let's try the following technique.
    preliminaries
    download and save a fresh copy of the itunes 6.0.1.3 installer to your hard drive. (eventually we're going to run the install from there rather than online.)
    iTunes 6.0.1.3 Installer
    switch off any antivirus and antispyware applications prior to any uninstalls, installs or repair installs.
    uninstall
    use the complete uninstall instructions given in the following document to remove your existing itunes and quicktime:
    Troubleshooting iTunes, iPod Software, and QuickTime installation on Windows
    ... and if you run into problems on the uninstall, try using the Installer Cleanup utility:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    reboot after uninstalling.
    reinstall
    remember to switch off your antivirus and antispyware.
    reinstall itunes using the 6.0.1.3 installer you downloaded previously.
    if you get the "itunes has encountered a problem ..." error message again after that install, first check to see if your Quicktime will launch. if you get an error message when you try to launch quicktime, try using the following technique:
    iTunes 6 for Windows unexpectedly quits when opened
