IWeb freezes on start up

I'm using Leopard - that may be the problem. It was working just fine yesterday, and I did my first successful blog post. Now, when I go in to start up the program the beach ball just spins and spins and spins...I let it spin for a long time (like 15 mins) and the page finally opened up - but then it just spun some more. Still frozen. The page is simple, no graphics so that's not the problem. And I've tried deleting the prefs.
Any help would be a life saver...

Ok - so it turns out that it was freezing up because I wasn't connected to the internet. Apparently iWeb didn't like the fact that i was trying to work offline. I'm out of town (at CES) and so access to broadband is limited. As soon as I jacked in, iWeb snapped into position ready to work.
Go figure....
Thx for your help though...

IWeb freezes upon opening

The moment I open iWeb and try to click anywhere the application stops responding. (It never really started responding.) I can do nothing at all. I have to force quit to get out of the program. Anyone else experiencing this or have any ideas how to fix? I am trying not to loose all my data. I have tried to reinstall - upgrade - but it had no effect and I am running the latest version.

CozmicGal:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. When does iWeb freeze, when you first launch it or when you try to access a template? If its the latter then there may be damage to the template.
Try the following:
1 - move your Domain.sites files to the Desktop.
2 - launch iWeb and see if you can get it open and start a new site.
If that works then your original Domain.sites file may be damaged. If it is I don't think you can recover it, but am not positive on that.
If the new file still doesn't work, move your original file back into the User/Preferences/Application Support/iWeb folder, replacing the new one, and boot into Safe Mode. Try iWeb again.

IWeb won't start after update

Hey!
I just ran a bunch of system updates and now iWeb won't start. I reinstalled iLife'06 from the DVD and rebooted, but no luck. I have also repaired permissions and rebooted. I just get one bounce in the Dock and this message in the iWeb.crash.log:

Sounds like something major is missing from iWeb or from the iLife install.
If you didn't delete iWeb and the install package receipts from your computer before reinstalling iLife, iWeb would have only been updated. If it was corrupted before the update, the problem would not have been fixed by a reinstall.
Backup your domain file before doing anything else! It's in username/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Put a copy in a safe place.
Then try deleting everything to do with iWeb from your computer, going to drivename/Library/Receipts and deleting all the iWeb package receipts, empty the trash.
Reinstall iWeb.

Exceeded RAM..was crashing now freezes on start-up screen..HELP!!

My mac is only about 2 mths old.
I've got about 15GB music, lots of tv shows (about 13 series) and yesterday I installed Microsoft Office.
My mac had been freezing occasionally before and I would just have to resart it. The cursor would freeze on the page.
Well as I said yday I installed Microsoft Office and also downloaded 4GB worth of TV shows and another 2-3GB music and tonight it has crashed.
At first it was freezing after a minute or two of being on, no pages would load especially internet pages with lots of pictures.
I've restarted it a lot trying all the different combo's on the discussions/forums but it still seems to just freeze on start up.
Resarting whilst holding down Command-S gives me
"error enabled
uncorrected error
mca error code: 0x0400
model specific error code: 0x2008
other info: 0x00001210
debugger called: <panic>
backtrace <cpu 1>, frame: return adress {4 potential args on stack)
I just put in what I thought might be significant.
It freezes after that page and wont let me type anything..
Have tried resetting PRAM, resarting in Safe Mode, resarting with mac disk that came in box...
Nothing is plugged in.
I totally forgot about my mac having limited RAM :S

All good... I quickly typed in 'fsck -fy' Return
before it froze.
It ran through some checks. Then typed in 'reboot' Return. It booted up. Halleljah!
The cursor was still acting up a bit, jumping around and lagging. I managed to uninstall microsoft office, skype, sims 3 and some other crap I didn't use. Seems to be running perfect now.
That'll teach me to get an external hard-drive...

IWeb will not start

My iWeb is behaving strange. I just wanted to start using the application after a one year break, so I don't know which upgrade/change to my system might have caused this:
- some times iWeb crashes on start ("The applications has quit unexpectedly...")
- when I manage to start it by sending a photo over from iPhoto, I get the application running but almost all menu items are greyed out so I can not do anything (e.g., new page, new site etc.) except quitting
I have tried to delete the iWeb plist file in my library preferences, tried to remove the old domain file in application support and reinstalling the application, but the problem persists.
I do not have a mobileMe subscription, so on starting iWeb I click "no thanks" on the MobileMe dialogue.
Please - any suggestions would be appreciated!
Best regards,
..Johan

Maybe your domain file is corrupt.
To test this, drag it into the trash and then open iWeb by clicking the application icon to force it to create a new domain file. Once you have done this, don't forget to take the original back out of the trash!

My macbook keeps turning off and freezing on start up

So like my macbook keeps either freezing on start up or it will just shut off or restart itself
When it restarts itself it will bring up the main screen then this box comes up telling me to hold down the power button and restart it
A friend said it might have something to do with the fan not working or it overheating
But I can have it off all night then turn it on in the morning and it will mess up
It will do it sometimes between 2-4 times
I don't know what is making it does this
I ran the check up things and it said that nothing was wrong?

This sounds like the same thing that has been happening to both my Macbook and Macbook Pro. Some others sound like they have similar problems. This is what I posted in the Macbook Pro area regarding the same symptoms. This is discouraging. These computers are expensive and they should have the bugs worked out better than this.

I wonder if I have similar problems. I have both a Macbook Pro 15" and a Macbook 13"
1st my macbook started shutting itself off unexpectedly. It got more and more frequent. I have done several fixes including: archive and install, sending it in to have a logic board replaced, downloading an updated disc utility repair, and sending it in to have a power component replaced. Now I will be sending it in for a third time and I think they will replace the Macbook machine if this repair doesn't work.
Now my Macbook Pro is doing the same thing. I have had it for about 6 months and it was running fine until now. I ran the exact same software on my 12 G-4 powerbook without any problems. One of the computer people at work said it sounds like a power problem. It happens whether it is running AC or on battery power and doesnt seem to matter what I am doing.
I am waiting for the macbook to be fixed before I address the Macbook Pro because I dont want to have both of my computers in the shop at the same time.
Any suggestions? This seems totally unacceptable for two new expensive computers.

IWeb won't start

My iWeb will not start up. I get the "The application iWeb quit unexpectedly" dialog box. I tried reinstalling...no luck. Used both the installation disk and downloaded the upgrade from the website. Nothing! I need it back quick.
I was working in iWeb and it simply froze up. In fact, the whole computer froze up. I had to manually turn it off. When I restarted it, my previous desktop was gone along with a few other settings. Feels like I'm back in Windoze!

Here's some info from my console:

After first installation iweb will not start

After first installation iweb will not start Problem message pops up:

If you are trying to launch iWeb '09 with a domain file made in iWeb '08, drag the domain file out of Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb into a new folder and then try launching.

I have been using pse11 on wondows vista and it has certainly started freezing on starting and I am unable to access the organizer, the editor is ok. Have removed and reinstalled but is the same have changed the files as suggested. Have been unable to ope

I am using pse 11 0n windows vista for years and it has suddenly started freezing on starting, I am now unable to access the organizer it freezes on the blue screen, the editor can be opened. Have removed and reinstalled but is still occurring. Have changed the files as suggested, am unable to open as administrator

'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

CS3 freezes when started on Mavericks

CS3 freezes when started on newly installed Mavericks (from 10.8). Last files are displayed and Regster window appears and then freezes up. Necessary to Force Quit to get out. I've "successfully" re-installed CS3 several times but the problem continues. What gives?

PS CC Freezes on start up.

I've read the other threads... but this is freezing on start up.
I have New Refurbished Dell Latitude Laptop PC Win 7, 16GB, NIVIDA Video card. I am in the process of slowly installing software and only have installed a few programs so far.
I installed PS CC and it opened and apeared to work ok with one test image. I closed out & powered down for the night. Powered up the next morning and opened PS CC and it opened to a frozen screen. No error msg, or anything... just a totally frozen PS standard first page.
Note: I also have both Bridge CS6 & Bridge CC (my only other CC program)... and both open & close ok (but I've not really tested them).
This CC is frustrating... had Preimere CC not work either and had to uninstall and load PP CS6 instead.
I have a teckie friend helping me and we are both yelling uncle.
Any help is appreciated.

I think I found the problem.
I have a 256GB SSD… it is so fast that PS CC loads so fast that when the “Adobe Do You Want to let adobe monitor your activities etc, etc,”… which is a really small file… so small it flashes on the screen and instantly PS CC loads on top of it and hides the Pop-up. And I mean flashes like a 1/10 of a second. The only way to then get to it is from the icon in the bottom tray because that Adobe pop-up box locks up the PS CC program until you click one of the Pop-up options to make the pop-up box go away.
The short answer... "Don't blink when PS CC Loads on a fast machine".

Gnome/GDM Issue - System freeze before starting Gnome every reboot.

Hi guys, sorry for my bad english.
I've a strange problem with Gnome/GDM DE.
Yesterday, I have installed gnome on my laptop but it works 1 times every 2.
The first time i power on my laptop it works, the second (or if i try to reboot) it freezes before starting GDM.
I can't switch tty, can't shutdown. I can only power off pressing power button.
How can i solve this problem? Anyone had this issue before?
PS: (I've installed arch yet on the same laptop using XFCE without problems)

Illustrator CS5 freezing on start up

I'm not sure what went wrong but suddenly Illustrator stopped working.. not while I was actually using it but now it just won't load. I see the orange start up screen it says loading fonts and that's it. It get stuck and eventually I have to use the task manager to quit the program.
I have the CS5 Master collection and all the other software are running fine. I tried reinstalling Illustrator & it's still doing the same thing.
My next step is I'm going to try uninstalling the entire CS5 Master Collection & then reinstalling.
Was there some file or folder other than the actual location where I installed Illustrator that's not being deleted when I reinstall?
I'm guessing this is why it's still not working.

I was having this same issue. I had also installed some fonts, after which Illustrator froze while "installing fonts," so I removed the fonts, but it didn't solve the problem. Illustrator continued to freeze on start up, albeit, now during "initializing."
The solution that worked for me ended up being very simple: hold down the Command-Option-Shift keys while starting Illustrator. Apparently it resets the applications preferences.
Hope this works for you too!

Illustrator CS3 freezing at start up

Hello, I recently bought an iMac with the Leopard operating system on it. I installed the adobe creative suite 3 not long after I bought the computer and it was working absolutely fine up until I went to install the disc for my internet service. When I put the disc in it asked me to quit running programs before continuing so I quit Extensis Suitcase. Now when I go to open Illustrator (as well as InDesign) they both freeze at start up and are non responsive. I'm just curious if it has anything to do with suitcase and how can I fix this? I already tried reinstalling just Illustrator and InDesign but it is still an issue. Should I uninstall the whole suite and just start over? Thanks a lot.
