MESSAGING app STOPPED WORKING

Why has this app stopped working i have only had the phone for two days
i can`t send any messages because it keeps saying closing down

This is a problem that has been plaguing the Z2 phone too, and Sony isn't doing anything about it.
It happens as well with contacts and Android process. they all sut down making the phone unavailable for a small amount of time.
I sometimes wonder if they can actually sell a product that has this problem and not disclaim it, as it makes for a bad user experience.
Head over to the Z2 forums and see how many complaints there are on this, quite a few!
Customer support advise you to restore the phone, backup everything, and then go through the apps one by one to see which one is doing this... How about they issue a fix and make their flagship phone work properly?! That would be better.

Sent so large of a message that my messages app stopped working.

I found the fix for this. This error is caused by sending so many text in a message that your messaging app stops working.
I'm on IOS 6.0.2 iPhone 5 Verizon. The fix is go to phone app and then click on a contact then click send a message then click cancel and return to threads and then delete thread that messed up messaging app.

This needs fixed by apple because it can be used as a spam tool. The person I sent the text to they also could not use their messaging app until I showed them the fix. They have an iPhone 4. So if you send this as a group message you could spam a ton of people's phones. This is a dangerous bug.

When I delete a text message conversation, the Messaging app stops working.

I have tried to delete text threads, but whenever I do, I can no longer use the Message app. After deleting a text thread and exiting the app, if I try to go back into the app, it loads really slowly, and then all of my messages are gone. So then, it pops up to create a new message, so I will type in the person's name and then begin to type in the message, but it will not send. This happens with SMS text and iMessage text. I usually have to turn my phone off and on several times before it starts working again. Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas on what I can do?

Unfortuneately, no - it will only be deleted from your own device.

Mail app stopped working after upgrade to Mavericks

Dear All,
I have updated from Mountain Lion (Macbook Pro 3,1, 256SSD) to Mavericks, and mail app stopped working.
That means - when I click the icon - the app does not work.
I can see that it downloads mail - as when I click it I receive notifcation that it has downloaded some mail, however I cannot open window. Sometimes I manage to open it, but it is totally unresponsive - I cannot change or click anything in it.
I have tried repairing disk permissions but without any success.
Moreover if I run mail app and try to click "new message" from the top bar, the window that appears is somewhat mixed with my wallpaper backround (I can see fragments of it).
Please help me, as I had there a few gigs of precious mails that I don't want to lose...
Thank you in advance!

Do a backup.
Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
Copy the line below.
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Select Go/Go To Folder from the Finder menu bar. Paste the line into the window. You won’t see it.
Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Relaunch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.
Information learned from Linc Davis.
If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library Directory in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion & 10.8 Mountain Lion
You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

Apps Stopped Working and go back to the home page

Today suddenly my apps stopped working. When i would press them it would come up for a few secs and then go back to the home page. So i deleted all my apps on my ipod and figured i can dl again from my itunes. When i tried syncing the apps i got the msg: Some apps(all of them) were not synced because this computer is not authorized blah blah. I can Sync my songs/photos/vids fine. Can anyone help?

From the message you need to authorize the computer for the account that purchased the apps. See:
About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
ALso make sure the iPod is also sign into that account.
You can also redownload the apps directly to the iPod if you have iOS 4.3 or later, see:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Why did my Creative cloud desktop app stop working!

All third party apps stopped working (crash at launch)

Ok, so there's a BUNCH of people having the exact same problem as I do (search this forum or Google with the title of this post). And I'm posting this in iPad but it does happen on iPhone too. Summary :
Often after an iOS update (but not always) third party apps stop working. When started, they flash open and then just quit.
Apple built-in apps keep working fine.
NOTHING solves the problem : hard reboot (home+power until reboot), deinstall+reinstall one/all apps, restore the iPhone/iPad, buy a new (free) app from the store to "reset" software authorization, de/reauthorize computer, reset password from app store account, deinstall app and then reinstall using the iPad directly (not via iTunes), etc.
I have one iPhone 4 and one iPad with this issue.
Oddly enough, on the iPad, only apps that have recently been UPDATED crash. Apps that were present and left alone on the device keep working. On the iPhone, there was an iOS update so everthing was reinstalled and therefore doesn't work anymore.
Strangest thing : reset the device to make sure nithing is open in the background, launch an app, app crashes and returns to springboard, double click "home" and... tadaam, the crashed app is in the list of open apps. On the iPad, 4-finger slide does even go to that app's screen (which is pitch black).
As I said, 30 minutes of googling revealed at least 50 identical cases. All seem related to iOS 5.1. My iPhone rune iOS 5.1.1 (that was the upgrade) and my iPad runs iOS 5.1 and I'm NOT doing the update until I can solve this crazy thing.
Please, all, HELP !
Thanks in advance.

Please, Alan, I know my message might be a bit long, but do read it! I DID try that and absolutely everything else that was mentionned in the other posts about this subject. Nothing works. And it doesn't work for the others either, not just me.
The only thing I can think of right now is to put the iDevice in DFU then make a clean install and configure it as a new iThingy. This looses all stored data and config so it's a pain in the a... and I won't try it unless I'm pretty sure nothing else can be done. And I'm not entirely sre it'll work, either…

'Attach photo' to emails and messages has stopped working. Help?

'Attach photo' to emails and messages has stopped working.
The function is grayed out. Help?
— Relatively new iPhone 6+ with latest system ...
If on a mac, I'd be running a disk utility or looking to overwrite an app, or re-install the system.
Although over 25 years on Macs, this is my first iPhone... and I'm missing a few (probably) subtle things to do to resurrect this function.
Help?
Thanks

Hi CartoonBob,
If you are having issues with being unable to attach a photo from Mail on your iPhone, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

Kobo eReading App stopped working?

Greetings, could someone explain to me why the pre-installed Kobo eReading app stopped working on my Blackberry Playbook? I was enjoying the app and had purchased several books that are now missing from my library. It stopped working five days ago since then I have sent two messages to Kobo customer service but have not received a reply. There is nothing mentioned on the Kobo website about this problem either. This is very frustrating!

There is a prior thread about this.
Please search the boards prior to posting.

Why do some apps stop working after update to iOS 6?

I notice one of my apps stopped working after the iOS 6 update, in particular Uno HD, which I paid $5 for. Why did this happen?

I had solved the problem by installing the free app, which seemed to reset something, then I deleted the free app, and the paid version continued to work until the next day. I was going to show one of my friends the game, and then it once again would not open- the same problem was back, as soon as I went to open it, it crashed back to the desktop without opening the game. I had to re-install the free version again, and for a while, neither version would work, but then after a while, it started working again. I guess I have to leave the free app installed or I won't be able to use the paid version of Uno.
EDIT
Just checked again, took the Uno app out of resident memory by double-pushing the home button and holding the app icon til it starts to shake, and then hit the minus symbol, which deletes it out of resident memory.
Went to open it again, and it of course crashed back to the desktop again. So there is some issue with it that is making it unstable.
I have to keep pushing on either one of the app icons continuously until one of them starts, and then the other one will start.
Gameloft needs to do an update.

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working.

After installing version 5 upgrade to my Iphone 4 all the apps stopped working and I cannot reinstall them at the Appstore giving me a message that I have already purchased them. I can see all the apps, click on them, but none of them will open. How can I make them work again, since the Appstore will not allow me to reinstall the apps? The only apps that are working are the ones pre-installed by the upgrade.

Try downloading any free app using the App Store on the phone.

Several apps stopped working -- won't run

Macbook 2GHz 2GB
OSX 10.4.10
Hi all,
Today I've had several apps stop working -- meaning, when I run them, their icon will bounce a couple times and then disappear, and the program never runs.
Googling led me to try deleting pref files -- one program had a pref file, I deleted it but no difference. The other apps didn't have any pref files.
I've repaired disk permissions. I've uninstalled/reinstalled each program.
I've been using them with no problems until today. The Macbook did try a software update today, but kernel panicked in the middle of installing -- not sure if that could cause it. I've tried Software Update again but it finds nothing.
Any help will be VERY much appreciated. I've never had this happen before, and can't seem to find much about it.
Thank you!

Tutorial: What to do when a Mac OS X application will not launch
It’s a frustrating scenario: You click on a regularly used application only to find that it will not launch – either bouncing indefinitely in the Mac OS X Dock or simply providing no feedback whatsoever. There are a number of potential solutions for this problem, ranging from simple and relatively quick to more tedious.
Update prebinding Many cases of application launch-failure can be resolved easily by simply updating prebinding, via the following steps:
1. Log in as an administrator
2. Open the Terminal (located in Applications/Utilities)
3. Type: sudo update_prebinding -root / -force and press Return.
4. When prompted for a password, enter your admin password, and press Return again. The process may take a few minutes, and you may see various messages flash by. The process is complete when the Terminal returns to a normal prompt.
5. Type exit and press Return.
6. Check for the capability to launch the problematic application.
Kill process in activity monitor Killing an application-related process via Activity Monitor (click the item then press the 'Quit Process' button) can allow proper application launch. This is especially applicable in situations where a restart cures problems with application launching, as the offending process(es) will, of course, be killed by the restart process.
Launch Activity Monitor (located in Applications/Utilities), then find the process associated with the problematic application, then quit it and attempt re-launching the applications.
Delete appropriate .plist files A non-launching application can be the result of a corrupt or otherwise defunct associated .plist file (for more information on exactly what a .plist file is, see this series of articles)
Most of the preferences files that we will be talking about are stored in a folder named Preferences, and located in the Library folder of your home directory, e.g.:
* ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist.
Go to the ~/Library/Preferences folder, and search for any .plist files that may be associated with the application you are having trouble with. Drag the .plist file(s) [many applications have more than one associated .plist file, so be careful to scour for all of them] to the Desktop, then re-attempt launching the application.
You can also use an application like Preferential Treatment to check for corrupt .plist files.
Re-install the application Try re-installing your application from its original media or download source.
If an Apple application or component is not launching properly, you might need to restore it from the Apple installation discs per the instructions in our tutorial "Re-installing Apple applications from a Mac OS X disc/update package using Pacifist."
Clearing caches Try using a utility like Tiger Cache Cleaner, OnyX, or Cocktail to perform series of system cache deletion routines. Go from light, to medium to deep (the ordinal levels are defined differently in each application), checking to see if your afflicted application launches properly after each.
Also, check the following folder for application-specific cache files that can be deleted, or at least temporarily removed:
/Library/Application Support (look inside the folders here for files that end with .cache, and delete them)
Make sure permissions are correct A range of permissions issues can effect Mac OS X applications, causing them not to launch.
In these cases, the first thing to try is a disk permissions repair routine using Apple's Disk Utility (located in Applications/Utilities).
Failing that, startup from your Mac OS X installation disc (insert it, then restart while holding down the "C" key). After the startup process is complete, go to the "Utilities" menu and select Disk Utility. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button.
In some odd cases (usually after a backup or when transferring backed up data back to a startup device), permissions on the "MacOS" directory (the directory that normally stores the executable binary in a Mac OS X application) can become incorrect.
In order to fix this problem, use the following steps:
1. Click on the afflicted application to select it in the Finder
2. Either click the application while holding the control key, or use the "Action" menu (the icon looks like a gear) to access the option "Show Package Contents"
3. Open the "Contents" folder therein, and then find the "MacOS" folder
4. Modify the permissions on this folder to give it "execute" permissions for all users. Do this by opening the Terminal (located in Applications/Utilities) and typing the following command (don't press return afterward):
5. sudo chmod 755
6. After typing this, drag the "MacOS" folder to the Terminal window -- its path should appear. Press return, and you will be prompted for your administrator password, which you should enter.
The "MacOS" directory should now have read, write and execute priveleges for the owner, and read and execute privileges for the group and others.
Check CoreAudio As noted in Knowledge Base article #301658, some Apple applications might not open fully or at all if the Digidesign Core Audio driver has been installed as part of a Pro Tools version 6.9 installation.
Apple says to follow these steps if you are affected by this issue:
* Updating your Digidesign Core Audio driver may resolve the issue. You can find the latest versions for Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) and Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) at http://digidesign.com/download/coreaudio. If that doesn't help, continue to step 2.
* Open Audio MIDI Setup (/Applications/Utilities).
* Click the Audio Devices tab.
* From the Default Output pop-up menu, choose Built-in Audio.
Check for errant plug-ins Some application launch failures can be caused by problematic plug-ins or other add-ons. Safari and other Web browsers are notorious for suffering from this issue, as are some other extensible applications like iMovie.
Check the following locations for any recently added files, or any files implicated in error messages generated when you attempt to launch the problematic application:
* /Library/Internet Plug-ins
* ~/Library/InputManagers
Re-apply the Mac OS X combo updater Try re-applying the latest Mac OS X combo updater from Apple's software downloads page. Doing so can resolve issues with system components or delete specific files that can resolve application launching issues.
Create a new user account Try creating a new user account, and check if the application launches under it. If so, a user-specific corruption issue is likely at play -- see the above sections regarding .plist files and caches. See our tutorial "Common workaround -- create a new user account" for more information.
Archive and Install As a last resort, try performing an Archive and Install process, which will retain some user settings but otherwise leave you with a fresh Mac OS X installation.
Also, check with the application's developer for compatibility notes regarding the version of Mac OS X you are running, and revert to an earlier iteration if necessary.

Messages have stopped working

Why have my messages have stopped working on my ipad and how can i fix it? I've cleared them and turned message off and on again but neither have helped. Everything else appears to still be working, internet, mail, app and itunes downloads, so it just seems to be messages. They get to about 80% sent and then it returns a delivery failed error.

What a load of rubbish. I have had no problems at all with any of my 4 email servers until I downloaded ios7. Are you telling me all 4 servers have issues. I don't think so! I have 4 email accounts on here and cannot receive anything on any of them. I'm not the only one and you are refusing to acknowledge there is a problem. I have a lot of emails on my ipad which need to be saved so I cannot delete the account off here and put the mail settings on again as I believe I will lose all of the emails. These are important messages. I would never do an apple update again!!! I now cannot use emails at all on my ipad so its is now useless to me. Should have bought a samsung.

IOS apps stop working

Judging by the response in other forums this problem has been around for years through many iOS iterations. Every month or two most of my third-party apps stop working on my iPhone 4S. This is not related to multiple iTunes store accounts or any app or os update. Happens out of the blue. Hopefully Apple can fix this soon. The workaround is to download any free app from the store. This seems to get all third-party apps going again. A hard reset does not help. Strange ......

I had solved the problem by installing the free app, which seemed to reset something, then I deleted the free app, and the paid version continued to work until the next day. I was going to show one of my friends the game, and then it once again would not open- the same problem was back, as soon as I went to open it, it crashed back to the desktop without opening the game. I had to re-install the free version again, and for a while, neither version would work, but then after a while, it started working again. I guess I have to leave the free app installed or I won't be able to use the paid version of Uno.
