ISync will not open and will not synchronize

I had recently let SOHO Organizer finish a third 30 day trial. I waited about one week after the trial was over. I had been having sync troubles on my computer which I thought were .mac sync problems. After awhile I decided the problems were with some kind of internal syncing mechanism. I have noticed in the activity monitor several times something called "syncserver" using about 99% of the cpu resources. Synchronizations other than with SOHO, if they sync at all, can take many hours. I do not know if any of this could have been caused during the use of my trial version of SOHO Organizer. With the trial version for awhile I was getting several duplications of various calendars. I deleted the unwanted calendars both in SOHO and in iCal. With all of this going on, I purchased SOHO Organizer and then reinstalled it thinking this may somehow fix something. Things are worse. The present condition is after 3 days it has not synchronized. There is only 1 entry showing in contacts, Chronos. My Address Book has 1300 contacts. My calendars are not imported. How do I get the synchronization to work? The most recent development is that iSync will not even open. I get an error message each time stating iSync quit unexpectedly.

I never figured out the problem or solution. One day after several months of trying different things from time to time it just started working ok. The last thing we tried with the cooperation of tech support at Apple was to set up a new user and migrate all my stuff to it. The first thing we tried to do was migrate the address book to the new user and it failed to open in the new user. I gave up due to time constraints. Then the next time I used my computer I found it was syncing ok.

  • Firefox is not opening and is NOT present in task manager

    With no apparent reason FF is not opening and is not present in Win Task Manager. I tried to reinstal, reset registry and other common solutions but none of them changed anything. After doubleclick on an icon nothing happens... and thats all.

    For some reason it is ok now after I've installed FF 3.0.6 and then made an update to 3.6.

  • Itunes will not open and does not recognize ipod, required itunes component is not installed 42404

    Itunes was first getting required itunes component not installed.  Click ok and could go to itunes.  Determined itunes was not recognizing Ipod, computer does.  Itunes diagnostics show problem Ipod not found.  Now Itunes is not opening.  Have installed Itunes again with repair option, then uninstall/install option.
    Then manually unintalled Itunes, Quicktime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, and Application Support.  This is a Windows 7 Toshiba PC.  Has anyone had this happen or have any ideas?

    hi bummed! (you do realise that you're stuck with that alias for the forseeable future, don't you?)

  • Firefox is frozen, will not open, and will not let me shut down iMac.

    A couple of days ago, I installed Evernote. That made it so that my iMac would never shut down or go to sleep or restart because Evernote wanted to remain running all the time. Now Firefox has stopped responding. I cannot open Firefox, nor can I close it, nor can I shut down, restart, or log off of my iMac. I guess this might be related to Evernote, but I cannot find a way to uninstall Evernote. I do not know how to go into Safe Mode on the iMac. Two months ago, I upgraded the software to Mavericks and have had problems ever since. The only browser now working is Safari. I read that I should uninstall and reinstall Firefox, but do not see how, because I cannot open Firefox to get to Help on the Firefox toolbar. I see only the Safari toolbar. I cannot open Help and see Troubleshooting Information because I am not in Firefox, I am in Safari.

    Hi,<br>
    It sounds like you have several programs that are stuck (not responding). Here are Apple's instructions for "force quitting" applications that are not responding - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3411
    If you still can't shutdown your computer after trying that, you can press and hold the power button for several seconds and the computer will shut off.
    It's likely that once you can shut the computer down and then restart it, that Evernote and Firefox and other programs will behave normally.

  • My iphoto does not open and will no show my photo library what do I do?

    Ok so about a month ago after I updated my computer I noticed that when I click to open my iphoto it pops up but has the continuous spiral going and nothing props up. I dont know how to get my library back up and my iphoto back up and running and suggestions or help??!!

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later
    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. .

  • Firefox has messed up my computer, does not open and will not be uninstalled. Tell me how to get rid. I've tried numerous options.

    Nightmare and I've had enough. Throws up an error message EXCOM won't load. Cannot uninstall firefox in any way. Not from control panel , nor from helper.exe nor any other approach including cc cleaner uninstall. Firefox get your act together! This is no longer a viable browser more like a nasty virus.

    Did you get the installer from Mozilla.org? If not, it could be altered.
    '''[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ Download Firefox Full Installer For All languages And Systems]''' {web link}
    Save the file. Then;
    Using your file browser, open the Programs folder on your computer.
    '''Windows:''' C:\Program Files
    C:\Program Files (x86)
    '''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder.
    '''Linux:''' Check your user manual.
    Look for, and rename any Mozilla and Firefox folders by adding '''.old''' to them.
    Now run the full installer.

  • I am using windows 7, and it is up to date, mozilla will not open and does not provide error message. Tried new profile, uninstall etc. pls help

    After I uninstall and reinstall Firefox works for a few executions but when I try to run it after about an hour or so it does not respond, does not give me any message. I have deleted my old profile, upon uninstalling I checked the box which asks if I'd like to remove all the previous data. The problem still persists.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • IMovie '08 does not open and is not responsive

    i didn't really use iMovie until recently
    but now it just suddenly stopped working.
    Every time I click on it on the dock it the icon
    starts to jump but thats about it.
    I right click it and it reads Application Not Responding
    I don't really know what to do
    anyone have any ideas on what i should do?

    Hi
    Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows:
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
    • Hard disk is untidy: Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
    • Delete iMovie pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
    • Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08)
    • Program miss-match: iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
    • Program miss-match: iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • Program miss-match: iMovie’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    iMovie pref file resides: Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
    and is named: com.apple.iMovie.plist
    While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
    Now restart iMovie.

  • Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only. However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is alr

    Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only.
    However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
    What we found from out testing:
    - The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
    - The file can be closed and  Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
    - Also, until the  Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file. 
    Example Scenario:
    - User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
    - Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
    - User 1 saves his file and closes it - but  Dreamweaver is still open.
    - User 2 also saves his file and leaves  Dreamweaver  open.
    - The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
    - If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
    - Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
    Other information:
    - Files are opened directly from the server
    - Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
    - Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
    - The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
    - The users are usually working on the files all day
    - It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
    It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
    Anyone know if this is a known issue?
    Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?
    Thanks

    Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?
