IDVD 09 and Aperture 3 not open

When I try to open idvd or Aperture 3 with X 10.6
I get the error message: iDVD cannot be opened because of a problem, check with the developer to make sure IDVD works with this version of Mac OS X. Be sure to install any available updates to the application and Mac OS X. It is a brand new computer,, I just got it, I would think that the applications would work. I get the same message with iMovie. I also used the software disc to reinstall and that did not work either. I went to the library preference, nothing mentioned about these applications. I dont want to reinstall the operating system.
Any suggestions appreciate

There are actually a couple reasons to have both. If you have a multiuser system - either with one computer or a home network - sharing an iPhoto library is very easy to set up and nearly bug free, whereas sharing an Aperture library is quite risky. If you have created any books, calendars or cards in iPhoto, those do not get imported or converted when you migrate your photos to Aperture. So you should not delete photos in those creations unless you want to delete the creations. In addition the latest version of Aperture does not create these things so you may want to keep the iPhoto program around with an empty library as you can access your Aperture library in iPhoto via the iLife browser. Personally, I use both. I take all of my top photos every month and export a folder of fairly large JPGs which I then import into iPhoto. Then every one in the family can use the iPhoto tools for making desktops, screen savers and whatever else they want. The originals are well protected from all the other users.

  • I Installed Aperture update today and Aperture will not open.

    I am running OSX 10.8.2 and installed a new Aperture update today. Now when I try to open it says my libraray has to be modified.. I modified my current libraray and now when I attempt to open Aperture it crashes and lets me send a report to Apple but will not open up... I also updated iPhoto at the same time and it to says I must modify my library to run this update...I don't care about iPhoto at the moment... I am a serious photographer and want to get to my photos in Aperture and am unable to open it... Any one out there that can help me..?

    There are so many threads here which contain the solution.  Have a read :-)

  • HT3805 My Aperture 3 just crashed, i.e., it would not open and showed an error message -1712.  I sent the current version to trash and reinstalled from my A3 disk, but after installing again it still says "Aperture can not open -1712."

    My Aperture 3 just crashed...by that I mean it would not open and showed the message: "Aperture 3 cannot open.  -1712."  I have the latest A3 version and had been using it continually for 3 years.  This was the first crash.  And it will not open as often as I tried.
    I am using a 13" Macbook Pro with OSX 10.8.5.
    I tried sending the A3 application to trash, and reinstalling from my A3 disk.  Install message said "installation successful."  But A3 would still not open and gave same message with -1712.
    Any suggestions what I should do or try?
    Thanks

    Perhaps your Aperture library was damaged, when Aperture crashed. What where you doing, right before the crash happened?
    - If you installed new software - programs, plug-ins, preferences panels, check, if they are compatible.
    - If you imported new images, you may have imported corrupted files, that crash Aperture.
    Can Aperture launch correctly, when you try to open a new Aperture library?
    Hold down the options-key, when you launch Aperture and select to create a new library. Import a few images. Does that work?
    If Aperture will launch on a new Library, try to repair your current library. Hold down the key-combination option-command ⌥⌘  firmly while double-clicking the Aperture library to open in First Aid Mode. Hold the keys down, until the panel appears, and then try  the First Aid Options in turn.
    I have the latest A3 version
    Is it Aperture 3.4.5? The latest Aperture 3.5.1 will not work with Mt. Lion.

  • Aperture and iPhoto will not open

    I installed the latest upgrade to the OS and now neither Aperture nor iPhoto will open.  What's up?

    Are your photos RAW?
    We need some more clues to be able to see why Aperture and iPhoto are not opening.
    To find out, if some preference setting in your user account is causing this, log into a different user account and try to launch aperture from there. (Isolating an issue by using another user account - Apple Support)
    If Aperture or iPhoto will not launch in a different user account, boot into Safe Mode and launch iPhoto in this mode. This will disable non-standard system extensions and advanced features of the graphics card. Aperture may not work in this mode, but iPhoto should. See:  Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
    To get more clues, open the Console.app before trying to launch iPhoto and check for iPhoto related, new diagnostic messages.  The Console.app is in the Utilities folder in applications.

  • Aperture will not open-  HELP!!!

    Can anyone help me?  Aperture will not open and I'm worried that I will loose over 35000 photos.  When I try to open Aperture this is the message I get:
    There was an error opening the database for the library “/Users/philcammarata/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or am I just screwed?
    Looking forward to hearing from someone.
    Phil

    OK good, version 2 on Mountain Lion would be dicey.
    Do you have backups of the library? If you don;t now would be a good time to make one.
    The first step is to run the Aperture library first aid procedures. Hold down the option (alt) and command keys while starting Aperture. This will open the first aid window. Now select and run Library Repair.
    Once it is done post back the results.
    Good luck

  • HT1338 Aperture will not open after update? What do I do?

    Aperture will not open after I updated. What do I do?

    Mgoss, quit the installer or App Store/Software Update (depending on what you're using to update) and restart your machine. With Aperture closed, drag the Aperture application to the trash, then reinstall Aperture from your original media and, if necessary, update again.

  • Aperture will not open on 13" Macbook pro

    You're most welcome.

  • Please help! I defragged my hard drive and now Illustrator CS6 is trying to open all of my complex Illustrator files with a "Text Import Options" box as if they are text files, and they are not opening!

    Please help! Illustrator CS6 started trying to open all of my complex.ai files with a "Text Import Options" box as if they were text files, and they are not opening!  Help!

    Hi Monika,
    I have spent the last two or three days trying to do what you suggested.  I uninstalled Adobe 6 from Windows.  Some files that CS6 placed on my system during installation remained, including fonts and .dll files.
    I had to abandon the Cleaner Tool you suggested because in one screen it allowed me to specify removing CS6 only, but on the following screen it only gave on option to remove ALL Adobe programs.  I could not do that because I didn't have the serial number handy for CS3 in case I want to reinstall it at some point.
    I tried to get technical help with the Cleaner Tool problem but no definitive help was available, so I reinstalled CS6 again without having the benefit of the Cleaner Tool.  I tried to get the serial number for CS3 so I could use the Cleaner Tool but spent 2 wasted hours in chat.  Even though I had a customer number, order number, order date, place of purchase, the email address used AND 16 digits of the serial number, in two hours the agent couldn't give me the serial number.  After two hours I had nothing but instructions to wait another 20 minutes for a case number.
    Illustrator CS6 is still trying to open some backups as Text and otherNone of the problems have been fixed.  I have tried to open/use the .ai files in CS6 installed on another system and am getting the same result, so I don't think the software was damaged by the cleaner.  The hard drive cleaner is well-known and I've run it many times without any problem to previous versions of Illustrator or any other programs.
    When I ordered, the sale rep promised good technical support and gave me an 800 number, but after I paid the $2000, I learned that the 800 number she gave me doesn't support CS6 and hangs up on me.  Adobe doesn't call it a current product even though they just sold it to me about 3 weeks ago.
    Would appreciate any help you experts can offer.  If I can't solve this, the last backup I can use was from June and I will have lost HUNDREDS of hours of work and assets that I cannot replace.
    Exhausted and still desperately in need of help...

  • I have tried everything that has been suggested and even deleted and downloaded Firefox again and it will not open. Any ideas on how to get it to open?

    I have been trying to get Firefox to open up and everytime I double click on the icon nothing happens. I have gone to the task manager and deleted it from the process list and tried again and still will not open. I have even tried deleting the program and downloading it again and it still will not open.

    What was the full wording of the error message? Usually there is also a number or additional information.

    Thank you for responding.  Nothing actually worked!  After reading the posts online, I called Apple.  They indicated they have seen problems with some software after their upgrades.  The technician was able to fix the problem on my computer remotely, but I have no clue what he did!  But, it was definitely related to their recent upgrade to my computer.

  • When i try to open Photoshop 7.0 I get a message "the search discs are full" and it will not open. Help?

    When I open Photoshop 7.0 I get the message "the search discs are full"  and it will not open.  Help?

    Is your scratch drive over 1 Terabyte? Photoshop 7 was never programmed for those sizes  and will return that type of error if you recently changed drives,
    Solution is to partition that drive to less than one 1 TB or find a smaller drive.

  • My macbook is loaded with microsoft work and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open.  Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

    my macbook is loaded with microsoft word for macs and every time I try and open the program I get an error reading and it will not open. This is what it says:
    The application Microsof Word quit eunexpectedly.  Powerpoint and the other applications still respond!

    The joys of Microsoft!
    Maybe the preferences file is corrupted.  You should be able to find the Word preferences file in the folder:
    your user name/Library/Preferences
    Its name is com.microsoft.Word.plist
    I suggest you drag this another folder and try Word again. 
    If that doesn't work then you might find clearing the cache files will fix the problem.  You can do this manually but I never bother. Instead I use a program like Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner (shareware) or Onyx (free). These programs do lots of other maintenance jobs so it's worth having at least one of them.

  • "Motion and Compressor Will Not Open Because Of A Problem"?

    Last week I installed FCS 3 on my iMac and everything appeared to work OK.
    However, as my iMac had been cluttered with rubbish for 2 years I erased the Hard Drive and reinstalled OSX 10.6.3 together with all FCS 3.
    I have only used FCP and STP since then but today I discovered that Motion and Compressor "will not open because of a problem".
    Here are the reports where it appears that in both cases the "Dyld Error Message", whatever that is, reports that "Library not loaded etc. etc."
    Incidentally there are mentions of 14 and 18 crashes since last reports. This is ridiculous as I have only just tried to open them 3 or 4 times in the last 5 minutes . . . . and the computer OS and apps are all freshly installed.
