  • After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.  10.6.7 now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.

    After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.7. and now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.  Update Software says I need to do update to 10.6.7 which I can't do because administrator privileges are gone.   I didn't back-up with Time Machine ,BAD, but I have all files backed-up on another hard drive.  Should I just reformat and start over?  Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

    PROBLEM SOLVED! For me at least!
    Apple Support gave me the clue - I had run Migration Assistant, and it had obligingly replaced a system file (/Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager) with the equivalent from my old system.
    I reinstalled 10.6.7 using the DVD supplied and all is well.
    The moral is - don't use Migration Assistant.
    Along the way Apple Support provided me with a link to download Combo update 10.6.7: this could not be installed on my iMac.
    Hope this helps.

  • Since installing the latest update, Firefox will not load; it gives me the following error -- XML Parsing Error: not well formed.

    since installing the latest update, Firefox first operated with some errors but now will not load at all; it gives me the following error --
    XML Parsing Error: not well formed
    locations chrome://browser/content/browser.xml
    Line Number 1191, column 20:
    utton id="back-forward-dropmarker" type="menu" chromedir="&locale.dir;"-------------------
    please note that the words "utton ID" are exactly as the error message gives it; and at the end of the message there are exactly 19 hyphens.
    I don't know why this faulty code is referencing things to do with "chrome"... the Chrome browser is not installed on this PC or anywhere on our network.
    Also, this is not the first problem I had after clicking Firefox's prompt for the latest update. Before Firefox retreated into this error message, it was loading but running with some faults...
    1. the bookmark symbol was not appearing on the right hand side of the URL line, so I had always to click on "bookmark this page", after which the bookmark symbol did appear; however I don't know if the bookmarking function worked properly.
    2. the back and forward buttons were not highlighted, as if I had not come from a previous page; so once I clicked on a link to a new page I could not go back to where I came from because Fiefox thought I hadn't come from anywhere.
    3. there may have been other errors, but I did not find them.
    How do I reinstate my Firefox program to work properly please? do I have to download the latest version and reinstal? if so, do I have to remove the old version first? or is there a fix?
    Even to write this message I have been forced to use (yuk -- I don't like to say this!!!) Internet Explorer. So please -- I need help urgently.
    Thanks,

    Some how I solved my problem by opening a user account and downloading Firefox 4.0 beta and installing it, I did try it, worked fine, so I did close the user account and did go back to my own account(switched user), the main page that I had problem with Firefox which would not open, I dabble click on Firefox it start working again!! I hope that solves your problem too.

  • Mac os classic desktop app will not load

    it will open and i will get the box welcome to mac os 9
    and it doesn not move from the prosees bar
    how do i fix this

    Boot with extensions off.    Use the Classic System Preference panel to determine what extensions are loaded.  I believe you can set this through the Advanced panel.   The Shift key forces Classic to boot without extensions.

  • Mac: Firefox software update process will not authorize in parental controlled account-Bug?

    OS: 10.7.5
    Firefox 20
    Parental Controlled user account: Firefox and Firefox Plugin processes are checked in parental controls. No other Firefox processes are visible.
    When logged into parental controlled account, user launches Firefox from the Dock. Message appears:
    You do not have permission to run Firefox Software Update. Admin required authorization.
    Admin clicked Always Allow, entered admin name & password. Firefox would not launch.
    Logged out of Parental Controlled account.
    Logged in to Admin account.
    Launched Firefox. "About Firefox" shows Firefox up to date.
    Logged out.
    Logged back into parental controlled account.
    Firefox opens.
    Is this a bug or is there some other reason the admin authorization failed?

    I have a student that is having the same issue. Whenever she attempts to open Firefox, either from the dock or applications folder, she gets the permission error. I tried this under an admin account and get the same error, and it will not go past it, even with the admin user/pass. A strange icon appears in the dock for a second and the disappears, but Firefox never opens.
    We have around 1600 student laptops in the school and I am seeing this on one of them. I have confirmed that she is running the latest version of Firefox and have tried to clear out the preferences, but there don't appear to be any.
    Does anyone have anything useful to add to the conversation? Tyler just doesn't seem to be grasping the issue.

  • My iPad is showing app updates but will not load. What's up?

    My iPad is showing updates available but none will load. I've even gone through each app but can't find any. Anyone know what's going on.

    Happening to many users, me too - I suspect a server problem.  Wait a day or use itunes to update, I was able to do that.

  • Ipad shows app updates but will not load them

    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    There is a problem with Apple’s servers that only they can fix. The problem has been going on for several days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
    This is a workaround only and not a fix. If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    Select update on the Apps
    Hopefully the red notification number will go away after the updates are applied.
    Another option is to update your apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the updated apps to the iPad.
    1. Launch iTunes
    2. Click on Apps in the list under the Library heading in the left Sidebar.
    Click on Updates at the top in the window on the right
    Update all of the apps
    Connect your iPad and Sync with iTunes
    If you do not see the sidebar in iTunes 11 - go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top.

  • I have a 2009 mac book pro.  CDs will not load in OSX - however it will load CDs in Win 7 via bootcamp.  Same with any CD or DVD.  Any ideas on what is wrong?

    I have a 2009 mac book pro running 10.6.8.  I also use win 7 via boot camp.  I can load CDs and DVDs fine, when booted onto win 7 but cannot get the same dvds or cds loaded when running OSX.  So, I'm having to reboot to win 7, every time I want to import a CD into my itunes library - I load the disc in win 7, then reboot back to osx in order to import the CD into my itunes library (which i have on my OSX side).  When running OSX, everytime I try to load any CD or DVD, the drive shoots the disc right out.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

  • Mac for office 2011 will not load

    Mac fo ruff ice 2011 will not load?

    On an iPad (or any iOS device), not it won't. It is for Windows or Mac OS  X only.

  • My Mac will not load up

    I'm actually doing this as a favor for somebody.
    The problem is they live in Spain and have powercuts very regularly. They went away for a few days and forgot to turn their mac off.
    Now it will not load up properly and displays on a black screen something about DARWIN. I've never come across that sort of problem before but it sounds quite bad.
    I advised them to try and use the back up disk, at that time the disk draw would not open.
    It was managed after a while, with a bit of gentle manipultion on one of the cogs. The disk was inserted and the 'C' button was pressed at the start up. When it came to choosing the hard disk, there wasn't one to choose.
    What it sounds like to me is the hard disk has been damaged quite badly or even destroyed somehow in the powercuts.
    The computer is an old flat panel. 800mhz, 60GB hard drive,
    256 RAM. I suppose it is going to cost a lot of money to fix it, is it worth just giving up on it and replacing the machine with something else.
    The machine was only used for a bit of word processing and web browsing.

    There is a nother thread called 'crashed mac" here where the guy has the same problem....not sure of the solution. He might need to boot to a Disk warrior CD and see if that helps. Its a problem i have not hear much about, but this is twice in one week....and if you google it, you will find it even more common...but no real solution that I can find yet.

  • Mac Mini will not load after recent update.

    My late 2012 model Mac Mini just had a software update and upon rebooting, my login name did not populate.  I rebooted again and now I get the gray screen with spinner and progress bar.  Once the progress bar loads I have just the spinner for a minute or so before it cuts off completely.  I use a wireless MAC keyboard and it will not load into safe mode when I try holding down SHIFT upon reboot.  Any suggestions?

    Try Safe Mode with a wired KB
    Use a PC KB if necessary

  • I am upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I keep getting an error when I try to load the Mac Os x update combined. It says that it was corrupted during download. Have try loading from Apple website V10.6.7 upgrade combined but it still won't do it?

    I have an Intel Desktop iMac and I am upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I keep getting an error when it tries to load the Mac OS X update combined. It says that it was corrupted during download. Have try loading from Apple website  Mac OS X V10.6.7 upgrade combined but it still won't do it? Any other suggestions. The printer is not working either - I am not sure if they are connected. Everything else is fine.

    Please excuse, but I have to ask an obvious question: Did you already update using the Snow Leopard Retail install DVD? (You must do this first; 10.6.7 is just an update if you already have 10.6.) Are you, then, trying to update from whatever version was on the install DVD to 10.6.7?
    Otherwise, I'd keep trying. The 10.6.7 Combo is a huge update.

  • The new update download is not loading on my computer (MAC PRO) have attemtped several times days apart, just keeps attempting to install.

    new update offered for Firefox will not load on my computer after several attempts at different times. The download just keeps attempting to load. Mac Book Pro is my computer, current Firefox running is 5.0

    This can happen if you have an incorrect user agent string (identifies the version of Firefox). Some add-ons modify the user agent string causing it to show an old version of Firefox even if you have the latest version installed.
    Your user agent string is "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.16) Gecko/20080702 Firefox/2.0.0.16 Mnenhy/0.7.5.666"
    It is reporting that you have Firefox 2.0.0.16, but the user agent string may have been locked by the "Mnenhy" add-on
    Try resetting the user agent string to see if it resolves the problem. For details of how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser
