  • Java applications won't work

    On my iMac, Java applications won't work.  I tried opening minecraft, and several other Java applications.  All of them have a message that pops up saying, "Not compatible version of Java 1.5+ is available."  I tried updating it but their is no update for Java it says on my updater.  Running 10.6.8

    I don't understand that becuase 10.6.8 should already have Java installed.  It optional in 10.7.x.  It will be interesting to see if the java update even works under these conditions.

  • My apple mail application won't work on my macbook, iPad, or iPhone.

    About a week ago, my apple mail (aol and google accounts) stopped pulling. They won't work on any of my apple products. It keeps saying unknown error. It will add my contacts for google and calendar, but nothing for AOL.
    I have erased my computer and reinstalled the new operating system thinking maybe something was missing (component wise) but it still won't work. I don't know what to do. Please help.

    This is what I am seeing on my screen. It won't let me even add a google or AOL account. It keeps saying there is a connection error.

  • Iphone recovery won't work

    so my iphone has not been working so i;m getting all this stuff to put it in recovery mode then restore it on itunes but everytime i do restore it in the middle of it, it stops and says "The iphone"iphone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred(21)" what is that PLEASE HELP ME

    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • Applications won't work after archive and reinstall

    My wife has an iBook G3. After automatic update she got the red circle with a slash in it. She rebooted to the install disk and chose to archive and reinstall. After doing this and restarting, several applications will not work. For sure itunes, safari, iphoto and perhaps other she has not tried. The message she gets is: "The application cannot be launched because the system is incompatible." Suggestions? Thank you. Steve

    To A Brody, thanks for the link to the backup info page..that was very helpful.
    I'm having a panic with two volumes with 10.3.9 and 10.4.3 getting corrupted and impossible to repair or reinstall...and getting errors that "may be bad blocks...bad media.." and am backing up all the photos and music to a usb ext HD.
    I'm only able to start up with os9 and am careful...perhaps not enough, I don't know, to not do anything to the osx files I can see from the other parition with os 9.
    So far I've just dragged the files I want to the ext HD. I think I will do it again with a disc image as well, on the same ext HD, and burn dvd's later.So far, testing the backup with another mac in osx, I'm able to see the pictures with Preview, and import the music and play it...but yikes, no backup is like running with scissors. Two different friends are also backup less and they both use their macs for business! I hope to get them fixed up as well.
    I'm going to post a new question about the phrase: "Mac OS X can't be installed on an ATA/IDE drive that is configured as a "slave", although it can see and work with such drives.": from one of the best books on OS X. Is this true?

  • My iPhone 4s won't work properly

    SSo recently I have been having problems with my iphone4s a pop up message keeps telling me to sign in to icloud . Even if I have , it wouldmstill appear, I can't even go on apps because it crashes or freezes them. I can't make calls neither and I can't received calls???? My battery life is draining quicker than it used to. More over, I can't even make a text. I receive text but once I try to open them , it would just appear in a blank canvas ....... I don't understand why I'm having these problems?!  I've also have the lastest update

    Funny:
         I have 3 headsets - Jawbone ERA, Plantronics Voyager Legend, and now (post iPhone 5) a Bose.  None of them work well with the iPhone 5, but did work well with my 4S.  Same with my 2013 CR-V - can make calls, but can't answer.  After doing some research on the internet, it appears that others are having the same problem. So...  it's going to be up to the every company or manfacturer that makes a bluetooth system to fix the problem (other than Apple, which does make "the blue tooth system" in the iPhone 5). 
         It's funny, on one forum a guy said (and I'm paraphrasing): "the iPhone 5 doesn't work with any of these cars; I wonder if we could sue all of these car manufacturers."
         The question is this: whose responsibility is it to make functional the bluetooth features advertised by Apple?  The Bluetooth system in my car works perfectly with the 4S (running iOS6), as do my headsets.  The iPhone 5 doesn't work properly with anything. 
         BTW: Between my wife, my 4 year old, and I we own 19 pieces of Apple hardware: 1. a Mac Pro; 2+3. 2x 15" rMBP; 4+5+6. 3 ipads; 7. 1 ipad mini;  8+9. two UMBPs; 10+11+12 3 x iphone; 13+14+15. 3 x AEX; 16. Time Machine; 17. the original powerbook; and who knows what else I can't remeber (I edited this because I just remembered that I own 2 apple tvs).  I am also a member of the ADC (OS X). 
         I been with Apple for a long time.  I have been very loyal to Apple.  I am entitled to say that is Apple's responsibility to make its own products work - but that Kool-Aid sure is sweet, ain't it?

  • Applications won't work anymore with 10.6.3 update

    Hi!
    I installed via Software Update 10.6.3. And some strange things are happening. At every 5 min the computer freezes, colored wheel, and it stays about 2 min. Then everything goes right again and in 5 minutes another annoyng colored whell.
    Firefox and other third party applications won't launch. The icon in dock bounces but the application doesn't start.
    Any suggestions to fix that?

    Gustavo,
    Since you used Software Update for 10.6.3, try downloading and installing the Mac OS X v10.6.3 Update (Combo).

  • After update to iOS 7.1, iPhone 4 won't work. Stuck in recovery mode. Won't restore.

    Hello,
    So I'm pretty baffled at this point. Last night I started downloading the iOS 7.1 update as my iPhone 4 was plugged into iTunes. The update did not complete on my phone. Instead, the dreaded "Connect to iTunes" logo appeared. After researching last night and again this morning, I have not found a solution.
    When I plug my phone into iTunes, this message appears: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." Then, I have the option to restore iPhone.
    So, having come to terms that I will lose all data - luckily my photos and videos have all been uploaded to my computer - I began restoring it. As it's downloading, this message then appears:
    I've read through the "More Information" page several times. Checked my host file, added the "# " in front of the gs.apple.com IP address, restarted the computer, and still no luck. I haven't tried updating or restoring on another computer yet, but I have a feeling that won't change anything - I've read other people's accounts and that step just didn't work.
    I updated my iTunes to the lastest version and restarted. Nothing.
    I downloaded tinyumbrella and RecBoot to try and exit the apparent recovery mode. This didn't work. I have tried numerous times restarting the phone (holding down the home button and power button) with different variations of unplugging the USB from my laptop, letting go of the home button when the Apple logo appears, holding down the + volume button along with the power button, etc.
    Does anyone know what I should do? Would calling Apple help? Or would going in person to an Apple store be better? Would they replace my phone? I don't see how this can be resolved unless the Geniuses have a universal restart method that bypasses everything. I need my phone for work and would be okay with just restoring the phone. Note: My phone has not been jailbroken.
    Really hope someone can help. I would greatly appreciate it...
    Thank you!

    The fact that gs.apple.com was in your host file to begin with is an indicator that your computer was used to jailbreak or hack an iOS device at some point in the past. You can not get help here for a hacked or jailbroken device. If your phone was hacked or jailbroken, Apple won't touch it.
    RecBoot and Tinyumbrella are hacking tools.
    Google "iPhone DFU mode".
    Try restoring in DFU mode. If that doesn't fix it, make an appointment at the genius bar and see what Apple has to say about it.

  • IPhone applications no longer work

    I have had my iPhone for over a year and never had the troubles I am having now. I have installed dozens of apps and have the same update problem as all of you in this discussion. Now, most of my apps will not work at all! The past week, I have had apps crash and the iPhone would go back to the home screen. A reboot, by holding down the power button until asked to turn off the iPhone would usually solve this, but now, after several reboots, none of the apps are working now. On top of this, yesterday, I was stuck in the Phone app. I could select a contact and view a map of the address, but I could never get back to the home screen or select any other app. What was even worse was the fact that I could not reboot no matter how long I held down the power button. I had to hold both the power and home buttons which did reboot, but I lost all my music and videos. I am not looking forward to going through the entire process of installing everything again! Web apps still work fine as well as all of the Apple apps, but none of the free or purchased apps from the App Store work now. I think I'll try deleting all apps off the phone and from my Mobile Applications folder except for the $20 worth of paid apps that I have and start from scratch. If that does not work, I'll try a complete Restore which is a last resort since that involves hours of resetting preferences, app locations, etc.. By the way, what is with the hour long iPhone backup when synching through iTunes. Is this a bug in the new version of iTunes? I do not recall long backups before the iTunes update. I hope we get iTunes 7.7.2 and iPhone 2.0.1 soon. I hate to say this, but I miss the old reliable and bug-free iPhone version 1.1.4!!! Any insight from those of you reading this would be much appreciated.

    Update from my original posting: I downloaded a free app from the iPhone, rebooted and everything is back in good working order, even the videos and music. I have over 80 apps and everything seems to work now except eReader which forced a reboot. I'm avoiding that app now and do not plan to download anything more or sync with iTunes again until Apple provides an update. I tried the same trick yesterday without success. What was different? I was on the Edge network yesterday and on my own WiFi network today. Seems hit and miss, but at least I did not go through the whole clean wipe process. I did not need to reinstall the videos or music. It seems these were always there on the iPhone, but not available. Since I had to type in my password in order to download the free app to the iPhone, it looks like there must be a bug in the software regarding authorization. Be sure you try this trick a few times before a clean wipe which will take hours of your time. I plan to wait a few days before marking this thread as "Answered" since others have had the same problem return.

  • Application won't work on 64-bit OS

    My associate and I recently got hired to replace the IT department at a business with an infrastructure that was sort of piecemealed together over the last 40 years.  We have a new and more efficient infrastructure in development, but, in the meantime,
    we have an issue that needs to be addressed to keep operations running smoothly in the early stages of implementing our system.
    Our predecessors initially created our database using MySQL and eventually tried to awkwardly convert everything to SQL Server.  They weren't very successful and we currently run both databases in tandem and our employees interface the databases with
    a program written in Cobalt.  We are entirely rewriting the database in SQL Server and building the interface application in .NET.  However, we still need to function on a day-to-day basis until everything is rebuilt and this is where our dilemma
    begins.  
    The existing Cobalt interface only functions effectively on 32 bit operating systems, and one of the first stages of our new system is to upgrade the workstations to Windows 8.1 (eventually 10), which only come in the 64-bit flavor.  We currently use
    XP mode in MS Virtual to utilize the interface, and theoretically, we can continue to do so with VMWare, but I'd like to get away from virtualizing and run the Cobalt interface on 64 bit machines until we can implement our new .NET application.  Does
    anyone have any suggestions on how we could accomplish this?

    Yes, it is Cobol.  Sorry, my mistake.  The workstations access the program from a server share, so the compatibility mode isn't an option (the options in the compatibility tab are grayed out).  I have attempted the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter,
    going through all of the combinations that were available with no luck.
    Yes, the applications do work correctly on 32 bit operating systems, but do not have full functionality on 64 bit operating systems.  I apologize if my phrasing was a little vague.  When the user opens the application by clicking on the icon, both
    systems open a window similar to:
    (note that this is not the exact interface, it is a close representation). The application is primarily used for data entry and retrieval. The options are listed and the user enters in a numerical entry that corresponds to a menu option.  When used
    on a 32 bit OS, the application will execute the desired request.  When used on a 64 bit OS, an
    Invalid Entry message appears.  In other words, when the program is used on a 64 bit operating system, it won't recognize entered commands.  
    I hope that this clarifies the issue, and any assistance would be appreciated.
