IPhoto does not start but gives an error message

As soon as I start the iPhoto this messages shows up:
I actually do not know what I did wrong previously with iPhoto. Any help appreciated
Ueli

Sorry, that the error message did not show up. I copied the error message from a screenshot (cmd-shift-4) into my post but now only a question mark can be seen. Sorry.
I am now at a different computer. But the error message said that the iTunes Library is locked or on a locked drive and at hitting the ok button the error message and iTunes closes.
I checked already the harddrive (get info window) regarding that there is a permission missing. But that was ok. The user was allowed to read and write.
I checked the iPhoto Library (get info window) trying to find there a missing permission but everything was ok.
I really do not know that cause.

I have a big problem with Lion and PGP. After upgrading from snow leopard to lion I cannot access my PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start but gives a notion that lion cannot work with my PGP version. Solution?

After upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion I cannot access a PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start. When I try to start I just receive a message that Lion cannot work with PGP. How can I now access important and confifential informatio which I have stored in PGP (snow leopard). Do I have to move back to snow leopard. If so, how can I do this?

If you have this product,

you have to go back to Snow Leopard.
To re-install SL, back up your home directory, format and re-install.

ITunes does not open and gives no error message on Vista

Hello,
I have an iPhone 4 on Windows Vista and haven't really had any problems until recently. Nothing has changed (that I am aware of) on my Vista machine but now, iTunes won't start and I am not getting any error message. It just brings up a message box that reads, "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program." Then I have the option to close the program and that is it. No error messages or any other indication of what is going on.
When I first encountered this, I followed the steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925 and removed and reinstalled the latest version of iTunes (which was already working). I actually did it twice because I thought I messed it up. I was still getting the same problem.
I did try setting Bonjour to Disabled in Services as written here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2618748. That actually seemed to work, but only twice. I am back again to the same issue.
Any ideas at what I should be looking at to help solve this issue?
Thank you for the help.

b noir,
Here's some additional information. Between the time you responded and I had uninstalled iTunes and cleaned it up. Also, I followed the steps to install iTunes without all the extra "stuff" from this article: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/the-unofficial-guide-to-installing-itunes-10-with out-bloatware/2390
After I installed it, using the guide, I realized I had accidentally installed version 10.0.0.6 (or something like that). However, iTunes was working. Except, when I connected my iPhone4, I got an error saying that I needed to update iTunes because it wasn't compatible with my iPhone (or something like that). That was my fault for not installing the right version - but it did work.
So I went through the whole cleanup again, checking the registry, folders, etc. for any traces of iTunes or Apple stuff. I then reinstalled the latest version of iTunes using the ZDNET article. However, when I started it, I got the same crash again. Below is the information from Problem Reports and Solutions:

I have downloaded and installed adobe digital edition 3 in my windows 8 laptop. But it fails to open. I get an error message saying "adobe digital edition has stopped working. A problem caused the problem to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". I have downloaded the set up file from the adobe site from the link http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/digitaleditions/ADE_3.0_Installer.exe. Can anyone help. I have bought online books and I am unable to read them unless this is installed.

My mac book pro does not start but has error message with a question mark on screen. took it in and was told probably the hard drive as could not reconize it so bought new one but still not connecting.what do i do

My mac book pro does not connect but shows an error message with a question mark on the screen.I took it to a retailer that said it was not reconizing the hard drive.He said i needed a new hard drive but it may be something else as well but he was sure a new hard drive would fix it.So putting faith in someone who deals with them i purchased a new hard drive to find it was still not working although he said the computer did know reconize the hard drive and i may have to send it away to get it checked .After already paying 120 pounds for a new hard drive and they wanting another 80.00 pounds to diagnose it i am a little sceptical.
That's why i am interested on anyone's help.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
I think that your Mac detects your hard disk, but the problem is that your new hard disk doesn't contain any operating system, so your Mac doesn't find any bootable partition and you see a question mark.
If your Mac came with DVDs, insert the Mac OS X Install DVD and hold the C key while your Mac is starting. Then, just install Mac OS X. If the hard disk isn't prepared to install Mac OS X, you will have to erase it using "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". See > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html

IPhoto does not start up with incompatible Prokit error

i installed the new version of iphoto 9.3 ( as prompted by software updates). post installation, iphoto does not start up. it throws an error " incompatible prokit framework".

I have Mac OS 10.8 too and it won't run the last versions of both iPhoto and Aperture. It does work with earlier versions (Aperture 3.2.2 and iPhoto 9.2.3).
I suggest you to downgrade iPhoto rather than the OS as in less than one week Mac OS 10.8 will be released and hopefully you will be able to update it and to run the last version of iPhoto with it.
By the way, I think that my grandmother upgraded to this new OS but I don't know how to downgrade it.. LOL

IPhoto does not start up after upgrading

On my new iMac iPhoto does not start up after migrating. Upgrade from iPhoto 6/Snow Leopard > Lion 10.7.1 with iPhoto 9.1.5. When the conversion is finished I can see the new library, it works allright. And with packet-inspection (or how is that called in English) all maps & data seems to be OK; I can check the seperate pics.
But: iPhoto won't start up a second time (grey screen with infinite spinning wait cursor). The same thing is happening when I add a new library and drop in some pictures.
What can cause this problem?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

After update 7.1.2 Iphoto does not start

After installing the 7.1.2 update, Iphoto does not start anymore. only the Icon bounce in the dock a few times.
Restoring the previous Iphoto.app in the applications folder resolves it and iphoto works O.K.
when i install the 7.1.2 update it again does not start.
Can someone help me with this??

You should probably post in the iPhoto discussions:

IPhoto does not start to update after my iMac was updated to OS X Yosemite.

iPhoto has been "paused" after my iMac was updated to OS X Yosemite. iPhoto does not start to update when I click "UPDATE" in App Store "Updates". The circle on the left top corner just keep circling. Do you know how to fix this problem? I cannot download my photos to iPhoto without updating it.

Thank you LarryHN,
I could not follow what you have explained to me as I struggled to find iPhoto 9.6. Anyway, while I was struggling, I managed to update iPhoto somehow. Finally, I can use iPhoto!
Thank you very much for your quick response.

After upgrading to 27, firefox will not start. Saw an error message during the upgrade process.

After upgrading to 27, firefox will not start. Saw an error message during the upgrade process but cannot remember.
Tried to run firefox.exe -P but receive error message:
XML Parsing error: undefined entity
Location: chrome://mozapps/content/profile/profileSelection.xul
Line number 18, Column 1:
<dialog
^
Running on Windows XP SP3. No problem whatsoever before upgrading to 27. Sending this from Chrome as I cannot open Firefox at all.

Thanks jschaer2000: after starting it once in safe mode, I closed Mozilla and tried several restarts in normal mode. So far, all worked:-)
Thank you very much again.
Still the automatic update process bothers me: it took me several days to discover the reason to the malfunction, since when I removed the problematic version from Add and Remove Programs, I didn't pay attention at first that it was another version, not v26 which I installed from my folder.
In addition, I like to save the installation files before I run new programs and if I didn't have v26 exe file, I couldn't have operated Mozilla at all. Not that it was fun to remove and install again each time v27 didn't react, but it was better than nothing, I still prefer Mozilla over its competition.

Item does not match schdule line ( program error ) message no . V1427

*Item does not match schdule line ( program error ) message no . V1427 .* This is the message I am getting when I am trying to display a quotation through VA23 . From here system exits the transaction .
As per my observation , when I compared VBAP and VBEP tables, there are 2 items in VBEP table with schedule lines but the same items are not present in VBAP table. User says he tried to delete these items because there is no quanity , Inspite of that these items appear in VBEP table .
The document is a reservation document where in schedule line category does TOR and availability check.
I checked various related notes - 442831 , 401463 , 389687 etc . These are quite old notes and I am in release ECC 5.0 .
What is the best way as this doc has nearly 30 items and nearly all of them have quanity confirmed .
Please provide your valuble inputs ...
Regards
Raghav..

Nitin,
Below are the steps to check
Transaction SE18
Definition name: BADI_SD_SALES
Menu: Implementation -> Overview
double-click on implementation: IM_CORE_CHECK
Now you will get an overview on the methods.
check whether implementation IM_CORE_CHECK is active or not.
If not Press the change button and activate
looking at the your system pack level this should be active. If it is active then the inconsistency must be modified directly at database level through Z report.

Xfce4-power-manager does not start, but after relogin - works

Hi all.
When I login after system start, xfce4-power-manager does not start and systemtray icon doesn't appear. But after relogin (not restart), the systemtray icon of xfce4-power-manager appears and power manager itself works correctly (if I don't relogin, notebook will shutdown after 10 minutes of downtime - that rule doesn't exist in xfce4-power-manager settings).
Diff between two logs (before relogin and after, xfce4-power-manager --debug command)

That bug start happening after one of last week updates. I don't have a package cache.

Yes, i'm actually running xfce4 (all other things from xfce4 group are installed).
It starts from a login manager named LightDM.
