IE 11 not launching in app mode

IE 11 will not launch in app mode, it only will launch in desktop mode. I have read the other posts and my issue is different. There are no other browsers on my machine than IE 11. In the control panel, in internet options, I set internet explorer
to the default setting for all programs. I then unpin IE from the metro start and repin it to the start. Same damn result happens every single time, it will launch in desktop mode. I've rebooted, deleted cache temp files, cleaned registry...nothing changes
the result.
Here is the kicker, two days ago it worked for 5 minutes! There are no other software on this machine, it is a brand new Lenovo Yoga 11s. What is up with this browser not running in app mode?

Hi,
Please take a look at this settings:
Click the tools button in IE 11(IE 11 on the desktop), choose
Internet options, navigate to programs tab, on the
opening Internet explorer, choose how you open links:
Make sure we have always in Internet explorer or Let Internet Explorer descide selected.
For more information regarding the options, please check the part Can I make Internet Explorer for the desktop my default browsing experience? in the link below:
Internet Explorer 11 - FAQ for IT Pros
Hope this may help

Internet explorer 11 not working in app mode

Hi,
I have a Lenovo desktop computer with Windows 8.1. IE 11 worked perfectly well in both app and desktop modes but since 2-3 weeks my IE doesn't open in app mode. I think it might be linked to the update following the IE security problem.
I tried to make the change described in a previous post, namely:
Click the tools button in IE 11(IE 11 on the desktop), choose Internet
options, navigate toprograms tab, on the opening
Internet explorer, choose how you open links:
Make sure we have always in Internet explorer or Let
Internet Explorer decide selected.
BUT in my case the tools/internet option/programs tab doesn't allow me to change this parameter... it's blocked on "always in internet explorer on the desktop" mode....
it doesn't allow me to select anything else...
Is there a solution to this ? please advise.
Thanks

blocked on "always in internet explorer on the desktop" mode....
Sounds like you may have installed another browser which has set itself to be the default? In order to use MUF IE, IE insists that it be the default browser.

IMac 24" C2D and Rosetta Not Launching PPC Apps

This problem seems only to affect a few iMac 24" owners, but it is extremely annoying just the same. My iMac24 C2D 2.33, after some, yet undetermined time (sometimes after logging out, sometimes sleep), will fail to launch PPC applications with Rosetta.
The only workaround found so far (actually from this discussion list) is to force quit the root process "translated" in Activity Monitor, then log out and back in (sometimes PPC apps will launch without logging out, but not usually). And sometimes, one must force quit "WindowServer" the same way, which forces a logout, to get these PPC applications to launch on logging in (rebooting seems to resolve the issue too). BTW, these include small PPC applications, not necessarily just RAM hungry Adobe or MS apps. I have switched as many sharewares and applications to Universal as possible, but there are still a few useful PPC ones needed. The PPC apps run smoothly whenever Rosetta decides to launch them.
Any permanent solution would be greatly appreciated.

Curious -- did this solve the problem? I'm having the
same issue with 20" iMac C2D, and it seems to have
begun with the latest firmware update -- I had no
problems that I can remember up until then. What is
an APE Module, and how can I find out if I'm running
it?
APE, see <http://www.unsanity.com/haxies/ape>. It's a third-party "application enhancer" installed in your System Preferences to run certain sharewares. I've had email exchange with Unsanity about this (they were very responsive); sadly the only workaround for me was to temporarily disable APE. The "optimizer" button worked sometimes, other times not. If you don't have APE installed, you've got other problems. Sorry.

Firefox will not launch in any mode. I cannot open Profile manager to change to another profile. No change with delete and reload of program.

I've been using Firefox for years. Had this happen once before but was able to open the profile manager and change to a new profile. At this point I can't even do that. Suggestions??

[[Basic Troubleshooting]] has a "clean reinstall" section at the end that does not require you to open Firefox.
In any case, you should first take a look at the [[Firefox will not start]] article, which I mentioned in my first post. If that doesn't help, also check out http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up#Windows-specific_problems

Apps in dock bouncing but not launching.

I have second account on my PowerBook. And this problem is only on this second limited account.
It was working five until few weeks ago. The problem is "Apps in dock are bouncing but not launching".
Apps like Mail, Safari, Firefox, iPhoto, iTunes, Skype, QuickTime, Vlc, Address Book, iCall and even Google Notifier on the top Bar. I can click on them again again but nothing. Only way to open them is to Log Out and Log in again. But in this case not all of them are working yet. I have tried with Apple Apps to delete in Library/Preferences - com.apple. .... but it doesn't work.
I know the easiest way to solve it would be just create this second account again but I wanna find out what's going on here.

"com.apple.launchservices.plist" Could not find it there (in Preferences on second account) I found it only in Preferences on my *Main account*. So tried to copy it on to my second account but it did not help.
I know it is maybe not at least 10% free al the time but I had no problem with it until now.
Another thing is I deleted "com.apple.launchservices.plist" on my Main account Restarted Computer and it did not created new "com.apple.launchservices.plist" and everything works ok on my Main Account. Very confusing.
Only common thing both accounts now have is "com.apple.LaunchServices.QuarantineEvents". Tried to delete it and it Created it self again as I expected.
Even non Apple App *"Google Notifier"* is not launching in top bar.

Renew subscription EVERY time I launch an app??

Hey guys, I was asked by the AdobeCare Twitter Account to post my issue in this forum, so here I am:
I recently subscribed to a Adobe CC membership and everything worked fine when I had the CS6.
Now since the CC Versions were released, I wanted to update of course. So I did.
Since then I am constantly haveing the same issue: I can not launch an app without having to do so many steps!
Here is what I have to do in order to open up any app (I have to do this EVERY time I launch an app..meaning when I open PS I do this, when I open ID I do this etc)
1) I click on the icon of the app (in this example PS)
2) I get the following "error":
(it is asking me to renew my subscription)
3) I click on "try again" and I get this message:
(it says "Thank you, your subscription for CC is now activated")
4) I click on "Continue" and get this message (again):
So I click on "Do you have another Adobe-ID?" and get to see this window:
... where I type in my Password and click on "Sign in" resulting in this:
and finally after clicking on "accept" in this:
...which basically is the same windows I get to see right at the beginning.
At this point I want to mention again that I have to do this e v e r y t i m e I start an app, for each app I have to run through all of these steps and if I close an app by accident and re-open it, I have to do this again.
I already tried to delete that file in the OOBE folder, did not work out.
Also, I am lacking all the presets in Premiere Pro (Digital DSLR etc) which makes me think, that all of my apps are running in trial mode..? At least I had this issue, when I launched Premiere as a trial in the past.
Don't get me wrong..But this is totally annoying and kills my workflow.
Any help? I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks and greets from Germany!

On the device that you don't want the apps to be downloaded on, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads. Once you turn that off, your problem will be fixed.

Full Screen Safari in Single App mode

I'm trying to configure some ipads for use as web kiosks. I can set Safari to single app mode and to only allow the one website we want used, but it still shows the bookmarks, share, new tab, and other buttons, along with the address bar, at the top. I also tried configuring a web clip for the site, and setting the web clip to full screen mode. That worked to get rid of the address bar etc, but if safari is in single app mode I can't launch the web clip, and if it's not in single app mode, the web clip works but other apps are also available.
How can I get Safari locked down to single app mode and showing the website in full screen only?
Thanks!

Recently FF3 started crashing when opening. It will not open in safe mode as well. I have uninstalled it including deleting the install folder and profile folders as well as registry entries. Upon reinstallation is will still not launch in any mode.
I have scanned for malware with several scanners and that has not found anything.
Here is the crash report cause - nsCOMPtr_base::~nsCOMPtr_base() | nsDocShell::SetupNewViewer(nsIContentViewer*)
Anti-virus is Trend Micro Worry Free for Business. I uninstalled it and Firefox and then reinstalled only Firefox and still get the same thing.
I do not know what to try next.

Single app mode with VPP Token Managed Distribution apps?

For some reason, single app mode setting in Profile Manager will only pick up apps that have been purchased by the device/user Apple ID I.e. individuals personally purchased apps, it will not allow single app mode on pushed apps via VPP Token Managed distribution.
My questions are:
1) should it be possible to single app mode, after all MD is to help organisations 'manage' the devices? If so, what am I doing wrong?
2) is it ethical that I can see users 'personally' purchased apps when MDM allows for 'dual' managed devices
Any help would be most appreciated.

EUL in apps mode

I'm confused as to how exactly security works in an EUL in apps mode. Let's say I've assigned an business area to a user. However, in the applications, the user does not have the responsibility to view that data. In Discoverer, it seems that security stops at the business area assignment (i.e., if the user has been assigned the BA, they can build and run a worksheet and then view the data). If this is indeed the case, what exactly is the "apps mode" part supposed to do? I'm confused...

John,
I've since found out some interesting stuff... (metalink.oracle.com is a wonderful thing!). Yes, if your EUL as created in "apps mode" then you should only grant security to the responsibility. (This is a quote from the db-link-related document referenced below) "When an applications mode EUL is created, it is set-up to interface to Applications Security Tables instead of the Data Dictionary." Those tables are fnd_user, fnd_responsibility_vl, fnd_application, etc. That's a biggie -- business areas built on custom views or tables are not filtered through the responsibility -- it's a big hole in security. Bottom line, it sounds like if you grant security on a business area to an individual, they'll be able to see the data regardless of their responsibilities assigned them in the front-end. I've also tested this theory and it seems to be true. See metalink Doc ID 191586.1 to find out how to join EUL tables with the FND tables. It's soooooo much easier to see which users/responsibilities are assigned on the back-end than through Discoverer Admin when you have 50+ business areas.
I've inherited an Oracle-vendor built, but not rolled-out, "apps mode" EUL. I'm tasked with figuring out how it works and getting it rolled out ASAP.
Also of note, "apps mode" euls have a problem with database links -- see Doc ID 113381.1 on metalink.

Apps Not Working In Airplane Mode

I have an iPhone 4 running version 4.3.5. I am on the island of Ibiza in the Med off the coast of Spain.
There is no cell service available on the island. I have access to a wi-fi network where I'm staying.
I am in Airplane Mode with 3G, cellular data and data roaming turned off. I am connected to a wi-fi network.
I can send and receive email on my iPhone.
Here's my perdicament. The majority of my Apps will not open. As stated, the Mail App works.
Safari, The App Store, The iTunes Store Apps work. But every other App just flashes for a second,
when touched, but will not open.
I really need access to the other Apps on my iPhone.
Any help or solution is appreciated.
Thanks

I manually turned WiFi back on and my iPhone automatically connected to the WiFi network
enabling my Mail App, Safari and the Apple Stores Apps to work as usual. But all other Apps will not launch.
Thanks

App Store will not launch with Mavericks

just upgraded to Mavricks and App Store and the Messages application not launch from Launchpad. Appstore also does not launch from the apple menu.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Since I uploaded the new OS X Mavericks the App Store, Messages, Notes, Calendar, Maps and Preview will not launch/open. In Finder cannot find my files. Most crucially cannot upgrade OS X Mavericks software. I had two apple ID's, the old one not used

Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.

Flash will not launch unless Mac is booted in Safe Mode

This Flash app. is part of Adobe MC CS5 Suite. The computer is iMac with latest update. All updates recent on CS5. All other apps. in suite are good.
Flash launch hangs when initializing Tools. After about 10 minutes it completes it's launch but frequently crashes after awhile.
I have deleted the plist, uninstalled/reinstalled. The only way it will work is if I boot the iMac in Safe Mode.
Any thoughts?

You are SO right! I discovered Wednesday there were
TONS of fonts installed over the summer from the Folio Collection. They were inside a folder within the Fonts folder and I didn't go far enough down the fonts list to get to "F" where they ended up alphabetically.
You get the prize.
What is still a mystery is why Flash reacted to excessive fonts and not the other apps. in the Collection? I will, however, not lose sleep over this.
