In 10.6.4, Word and PPt will not open in Pages, Keynote
I posted similar messages under Keynote and Pages, but I wonder if this is in fact a Snow Leopard 10.6.4 problem. I recently I clean installed MacOS 10.6 and reinstalled iWorks'09 on my laptop. I am running the latest version of Snow Leopard (Combo10.6.4) and iWorks'09 (9.0.3), but I can no longer open Word .doc or .docx files in Pages, nor can I open .ppt or .pptx files in Keynote. In Keynote, the progress bar gets about 1/3 across and just stays there, whereas in Pages, it just states that the document could not be opened. I need this ability for my work - PLEASE HELP!
Thanks!
After reinstalling the system software and the Combo10.6.4 update, reinstalling iWorks'09 and the 9.0.3 update, I repaired the permissions using the Snow Leopard installation disk and now Word .docx and PowerPoint .pptx open fine.
Thanks!

I just updated to Lion and my Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint will not open because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. I bought this software from Apple and the store installed it when I bought the MAC. What do I do?
Buy version 2011 of MS Office.
Or you can download OpenOffice, LibreOffice or NeoOffice, which all come very close to working with MS files just like MS Office does.
Or iWord, I have heard, you can purchase. -
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.

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.

I use LR5 on my Mac Desktop (Yosemite 10.10.1) and it works fine. I have downloaded LR5 to my new MacBookAir (Yosemite 10.10.1) and it will not open. Message says program in running on too many computers. I once had it on another MacBookPro (Yosemite 10.10.1), but no longer use that computer and LR5 does not show up in the applications.

My Microsoft Word Starter 2010 will not open
My Microsoft Word Starter 2010 will not open at all. Every single time I click on the icon in the start menu or on the desktop, this window opens and says "Click to Run Configuration Failure". What does that mean. Why won't it open? Please help
me, before I start uninstalling things in my control panel.Hi,
When you see the error "Click to Run Configuration Failure", please try a repair of the install from Control Panel -> Programs and Features:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/update-repair-or-uninstall-office-click-to-run-products-HA010382089.aspx
Or we should re-associate Office file, such as .docx file:
1. Open Default Programs from Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs.
2. Click Associate a file type or protocol with a program.
3. Click .docx file type.
4. Click Change program.
5. Choose Microsoft Word as default program.
6. Click OK.
Moreover, if the steps above don't help, you can also refer to this link, whose solution has helped some users:

Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air after Migration Assistant
I did the Migration Assistant via wireless (from Macbook Pro TO Macbook Air) last night and it did work. However, my Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air now. The error messages are as follows:
Safari: "Safari quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
- I tried reopening the app, restarting, and shutting down the computer. Nothing has worked.
iTunes: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?"
- I clicked "Download iTunes" but then another message comes up that all my software is up to date.
Any help is very appreciated.Try repairing permissions using Disk Utility.

I have been using Elements 12 without a problem for 9 months. Now when I try to open the program, I get an error message "Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 quit unexpectedly" and it will not open at all. What can I do to open the program?
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 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.
And update to 7.0.1 Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop 7.0.1 update

"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.

The iphoto and itunes will not open please help
on my Mac G5 the iphoto and itunes will not open can anyone help
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
Then, hold the Option key down when trying to open iPhoto, does it ask where it's Library is? Or what exactly happens? -
I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my computer is slow and will not open some pages can i uninstall
I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my mac is really really slow and will not open some pages. Can I uninstall?
Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
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 documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; 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.
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference? -
