Many applications not working after Quicktime downgrade gone wrong.

I have: MacBook Pro, OS X 10.4.11, Tiger
After the most recent Quicktime update (I think 7.5), AVI files that were moved or added afterwards would play video, but no audio.
I tried to uninstall Quicktime in order to install version 7.2. I deleted the QT files from the Application and Library folders.
When I tried to install QT 7.2, I kept getting a message that the 7.2 installation couldn't be completed because a newer version was already installed.
I downloaded Pacifist and used it to install QT 7.2 and restarted the computer.
When it rebooted the info that is normally in the upper right side of the screen is gone: the time, airport status, sound status, Spotlight icon, etc. And the Spotlight icon flashes randomly, but nothing happens if I try to open it. Quicktime still wasn't installed and now iTunes won't open, it just has a message saying "The application iTunes quit unexpectedly." Same with MS Word, iCal, GarageBand... The only applications that seem to be working are Safari and TextEdit. But Safari closes and displays the same message when trying to play a Youtube video.
I tried installing Quicktime again, without Pacifist, and it said the installation was complete and restarted. However, Quicktime won't open at all now, the icon jumps in the dock but nothing happens.
I also just found a Leopard installation DVD - if I installed it, would it be like starting from scratch with a working system? Would it wipe out all my files?
Any ideas?

To Apple Discussions!
Because QT is intergrated throughout the OS system, you cannot uninstall it completley from the computer. Most Apple application depend on QT in order to function properly.
*The safest way to put things right:*
Do an archive and install of your OS from the OS disc. Stop at the QT upgrade you need and/or want.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301270 Scroll down to "Archive and Install”
IMPORTANT: Maker sure you select "preserve user preferences and data" when you performed the A&I?
Good luck

Many apps not working after upgrade

I have a lot of apps not working after upgrade even apple's remote, splash id etc... Anyone else or is it just me?

I had trouble with MPR, but since it's free, I just deleted it and reloaded it directly from the App store onto the phone. It had an upgrade, too, that must have clashed with the 2.2 upgrade. Once I did the download, it was fine.

Application not working after migration

Hi,
An application developed in HTMLDB Version-2.0 is migrated to a new server with version-2.2. Few links like edit (to edit rows) are not working. What could be the reason

Hi
1) Old URL-
http://es40.au.oracle.com:7778/pls/marvel/f?p=102:1:254279794898873443:fsp_sort_6::RP&fsp_region_id=5100103122412382
2) New URL - http://sgord-dev1.sg.oracle.com:7780/pls/apex/f?p=135:1:1558885729019129 (which is not working)
3) Application ID before migration - 102
4) Application ID now is - 135
If I login as Admin, all links are working properly, and can edit everything. But if I login as different user edit links and dropdowns are not displayed.
Regards,
Pallavi

Applications not working after upgrade from apex 3.2 to apex 4

hi,
we've created an application with apex 3.2 which works fine.
today we upgraded apex 3.2 to apex 4. after the upgrade the application doesn't work anymore.
we recognized the following things:
- interactive reports don't work anymore
- tabs don't work anymore
- buttons don't work anymore
what do we have to do, to get our apex 3.2 application to work with apex 4?
regards,
matthias

I've seen similar problems to my applications. I've found a problem with the derived columns or link columns in reports. The only solution I founded is to delete the columns and then make them again. Now are working. No problem founded specifically for the interactive reports. If there is an automated solution for the derived columns or link columns it will be appreciated ;-).

Applications not working after update

Hi there,
I'm new to Mac world, so please bear with me. My applications were working fine before I updated few programs and the OS. After the update, they stopped working! When I click on the icons on the dock to open any application, all what they do is bouncing and then nothing. The only icon that opens is the System Preferences.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

Disregard my question guys, they work fine after a restart.
Thanks a lot

Apex Application not working after importing to my apps schema...

Hi friends,
I created one DB application in my sample schema that is associated with apex 4.0.....
Application details:
*) login page(where i will be giving username and password)
*) page 1 (consist of several form fields, like
--->name:
--->module:
--->projects:
----->email:
the above are the fields, if i put any entries in the above field means, it will get automatically inserting in the report column, which is also in the same page consist of the above fields in the table manner...
since this report table consist of an edit icon in front, if i clicked the edit icon of an one row means, it will go to another page..
*) i.e. page 3(consist of the same fields with entries in it automatically corresponding to the each and every row, suppose if i want to update any changes means i can update in it....
this is my application that i developed it is working well with in the sample schema apex 4.0..
What i did is i created a new workspace with APPS schema in it...and i have imported my application that i developed in sample schema to APPS schema....
Since after importing to APPS schema...when i tried to open the application, it is not showing any datas in it...That is due to the tables that are supporting the application is not in APPS schema, so what i did is i have given grant privilege to the respective tables and also i have created a synonym for accessing the table in APPS schema for supporting the application.....
Now if i tried to put any entries in the form in page 2, it is getting inserting in the report column which is also in the page2....
But my problem starts here, if i clicked the edit icon symbol in each and every row of the report column it is going to the page 3 which has a respective form fields, but it is not showing any entries in it automatically, and if i tried to put any entry in it, it is not getting updating in the report table......
why this problem occurred for my application in APPS schema....But my application works very well within the sample schema......why it is not showing any entries in the form automatically soon after i clicked the edit icon in each and every row.....
i couldn't know what is the real problem behind this..... help me friends.
As this is my urgent requirement in my project..Reply me ASAP...
Thanks in Advance..
Regards,
Harry...

First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Applications not working after resetting macbook from external hard drive

I installed Snowleopard a few weeks ago. Everything was working fine, though a bit slow for a while, I figured it was just because I have had the computer for a while, but about a week ago it shut down and wouldn't restart. It would go to the login page where i would type in my password but wouldnt log in to my desktop. I did what apple suggested on their website and reset everything and restored my computer settings from the time machine backup on my external hard drive and reinstalled snow leopard with the install dvd. Everything was seemingly back to normal, but now most of my applications are not functioning correctly. I can't use isight with skype (though it works with photobooth), I can't import photos from my camera to iphoto, imovie won't even open (displays "imovie quit unexpectedly" and other things of this nature.
Since seeing that multiple applications are not functioning correctly, I kind of figure that its not an isolated problem with just one application but maybe something wrong with my OS since I reinstalled it? I've tried resetting my PRAM and NVRAM but that hasn't made any noticeable change at all.
I'm about ready to give up and take it in somewhere to be looked at unless someone can give me some good advice on how I can fix it myself? All suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

I realize this post is from quite some time ago, but it showed up as relevant in my own search to resolve this problem. So hopefully my answer will be equally visible and thus helpful.
Select the movie file within iTunes (not the actual file(s) in the finder) and drag it to the desired location on your external hard drive. While doing so, you'll notice an indicator showing that you're in fact moving two files: the movie (m4v) file and the associated Extras (ite) file.
The first time I attempted this process, I selected the files within the Finder and dragged them to the external hard drive. I was able to play the movie itself from this location, but the Extras wouldn't play. After spending a considerable amount of time searching for a solution I tried the afore mentioned and it worked.
No promises, but hopefully this will work for some of you out there and save you some time and frustration.

Application not working after refreshing a page with F5

Hi,
Developed an application with jazn-data for security reason. In my application, i've taskflow with page fragments. In this fragment, i;ve LOv field with client listener to popup LOV using 'F8' key. After refreshing this page using 'F5' key or browser's refresh button, my application gets hanged. Even sign out button also not accessible. In browser's console i got "LaunchPopupUsingF8 is not defined" error. LaunchPopupUsingF8 is my javascript function for LOV popup.
Kindly guide me whats wrong in this...
Edited by: Usha on Sep 26, 2011 5:10 AM

Hi,
I would use JavaScript to disable the F5 button as it leaves the application in an undefined state after refreshing the content from the browser cache
see page 36 onwards (search for F5) for an idea

Your error stack refers to a class with the package sequence "com.news.pubt.weather....." but your jsp file refers to a class "com.news.pub.weather...
Is there an error in your jsp page? If so, did you change the package name, and do you still have old class files on the classpath on your local machine with the old name?
Anyway, the top of the error stack refers to line number 68 in the Container class. So that is where you should see a problem regarding the NullPointerExcpetion. You could post that line of code.

ITunes 7.5 not working after installation (downgraded from 7.6)

It won'tload or respond in any way (other than the little pointer thingy and hour glass for like 2 seconds), and it doesn't show up at all in the task manager.

What firewall are you using?
Can you confirm that the following three applications are all being allowed to access the internet: iTunes.exe, iTunesHelper.exe and QuickTime.exe.

Applications not working after archive reinstall

After a new optical drive, the tech at the mac store suggested that I clear up some space and archive reinstall. I did, and now all applications are seriously crashing - For ie iPhoto's icon just bounces then notifies that it has 'Quit Unexpectedly', and is now constantly failing to open. iTunes says the file cannot be read because it was created by a newer version. I don't know why. I do have Time machine backup's. Any suggestions on a next step....
I had upgraded to Leopard 10.5.6 last year and it was those new Leopard Install disc that I used for the archive reinstall because the option to preserve user data was greyed out when I tried my original discs that came with the iMac.
Message was edited by: circularlogik

Have you run Software Update yet?
There are frequent updates to the OS after the disc is released. The last release of Leopard is 10.5.8.
I just did an archive and reinstall from 10.5.1, and the Mac OS X Combined update for me is 768Mb!

Applications not working after Anna update

Hi all,
I have just updated my N8 with the Anna update and the applications 'Lyrics' & 'GPS Info Qt' won't start up. Has anybody else had the same problem or can suggest a possible fix?
Thanks in advance

Maybe these apps are not compatible with Anna. Try uninstalling those and install afresh. May solve your problem.

Many things not working after installing Snow Leopard!

Just installed Snow Leopard (10.6.3) on my 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac and now I've got problems. All the dates I've added to iCal are gone. Almost all my address book contacts are gone. I can't access my Airport Express network. And my Epson Workforce 40 printer won't print. Hopefully that's all.
If anyone has any ideas on how to fix any of these problems I would very much appreciate your help.
Thanks,
wendy

Thanks for responding.
I didn't have time machine before I upgraded so I don't have a TM backup. I think I have a bootable backup, but I'm not sure how to use it. Also, I realize I should be able to retrieve my address book and iCal, but how will this help with my printing problems and airport connectivity? Sorry to be so green, but I've never had a problem like this with an upgrade before.
