Motion 5 will no longer open

I have just purchased and installed FCP-X and Motion 5. For the first day (other than crashing repeatedly) Motion 5 was able to open and I could begin exploring. Once I'd done my first full "time-machine" back-up Motion 5 will no longer open.
I'm using a MacBook Pro 2.2 Gig intel Core i7 w/4Gb 1333 Mhz DDR3 running OSX-Lion
When I attempt to open the software I get the message... "The application Motion unexpectedly quit while trying to restore its windows. Do you want to try to restore its windows again?
Of course I've tried both restoring and not restoring with the same result...
Does anyone have any advice..? Thanks...

2 things. 4GB RAM is not much for doing video work, up it to 8 for sure. Second, Digital Rebellion (dot com), download the free Preference Manager app, use it to properly and safely delete Motion preferences.

Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
Please help with any ideas?

Pages 5 document will no longer open in pages 5

I upgraded to Mavericks a few days ago and afterwards, I had both Pages '09 and Pages 5 in my dock, instead of one of them being in the applications folder. They are both still in my dock. I have looked briefly at Pages 5 and determined that, at this time, I prefer Pages '09. All of my documents were created in Pages '09 and now they will no longer open in Pages '09. (Some will, and I don't know what the difference is between the ones that will and the ones that won't) When I try to open one, it either opens, no problem, or I get the message "The required index.xml file is missing." This message is in a rectangle with an icon representative of Pages '09 (the inkwell). Since it has this icon, I'm assuming that I was trying to open it in the Pages '09 version, which is what I intended o do. Since this didn't work, I tried to right click and "Open with Pages.app (4.0.5)" and got the same message. I was a little afraid to try to open it in Pages 5, since I've heard rumors that this could ruin the document. I would like to be able to use either of the apps but, since I apparently can't do that, I gathered my courage and opened a document in Pages 5. Everything seemed to be okay, so I opened a couple more. One of them, I even was able to edit with no problem. But when I tried to open it again hours later, I got an error message saying ". . . can't be opened because it is from an "unidentified developer". What's going on here? The only people involved in this document are Apple and me. What "unidentified developer" are they talking about? And why was it fine, then a few hours later it was not accessible? If I'm forced to use only Pages 5, I guess I can live with that, but it seems as though I will have to live in constant fear that, at any time, my document will not open. I've read about a lot of other people who are having problems, too, but not this particular one. I'm at a loss and, like everybody else, I have important documents that I need access to. I'm using an iMac and 10.9.4. What to do?? I need my stuff!

1. You have allowed Apple to auto-upgrade your Mac
Turn off auto-update here:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences > App Store
2. The Icons on your dock are Aliases not real apps
They point to where the apps really are which is:
For Pages 5.2.2 in your Applications folder
For Pages '09 in your Applications/iWork folder
3. You are alternately opening documents randomly with either version of Pages
Both Pages have the same file extension .pages and there is no certainty as to which version opens them when you double click on a file.
right click on the file and choose which version you want to open it
4. Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 files
Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files, and will convert and change Pages '09 and Word files.
It will also auto save opened files into its own format.
You can export these back to Pages '09 if you need to:
Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
5. Yes Pages 5.2.2 is a marked downgrade
Pages 5.2.2 has a few improvements but has had over 110 features removed and is buggy.
Sooner or later you will not be able to open a file or have it damaged in some way and it has a complex obscure file format largely incompatible with everything else, so you will not be able to rescue the contents of your file. If Pages or some third party server/eMail don't trash your file, eventually Apple will do it for you as it did when it released Pages 5 last September. I recommend using Pages '09 for the time being whilst you look for viable alternatives, some are here already and some are on the way.

The application called VirusScan that comes preloaded on the macbook will no longer open, claiming that it is corrupt and that I must reinstall it. After looking in the app store it does not appear that said application is available for re-downloading.

Also, I installed MacKeeper about two-three months ago and am questioning its performance. Looking for input as to whether or not this application helps or hinders my system.

I'll back up Csound on the MacKeeper thing. In fact, I actually wrote the following about it:
http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?p=245
Remove is ASAP. Do not use the provided uninstalled, as there are widespread reports of pop-ups advertising MacKeeper on your system after incompletely removing it. Try this:
http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/09/21/how-to-uninstall-mackeeper-malware/
As for VirusScan, Barney is right on the money that it does not come preinstalled on any Mac shipped new from Apple. However you have gotten it, your best bet is removing it. See my Mac Malware Guide for more information that will help you understand and avoid Mac malware without relying on anti-virus software.

I recently upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.2 and Aperture 2.1.4 will no longer open. I cannot access my photos and I don't want to pay for latest version of Aperture since this application is no longer going to be supported. How can I get my pictures?

If you want just the originals, then you can go into the Aperture library (right click on it and do "show package contents"). Inside is a directory called "Masters" and you can find the original files in a bunch of subfolders.
But... you'll lose all adjustments, keywords, and other information, and just have the files as they were imported originally from the cameras.
Easiest is probably to buy Aperture and update everything, and then migrate to the Photos application down the road if that's what you want. Aperture 3.0 came out in 2010 (five years ago!) so it's not like you've upgraded in a while

How can I reformat my Mac Book Pro without using disc utility? My laptop keeps crashing, and needs to have everything reinstalled, but disc utility will no longer open, saying it 'quit unexpectedly'. I'm running Mac OS X10.6.8. I've lost install CD.

My laptop keeps crashing. This seems to happen only when it's streaming from sites such as Netflix, YouTube or Spotify.
Also, it stopped being able to run iTunes, and can't download Yosemite.
I want to wipe it and reinstall everything - I've already done a full back up.
The problem is disc utility will no longer open, saying it 'quit unexpectedly':
I'm running Mac OS X10.6.8 and I've lost install CD.
I have no idea what to do, but need to get this sorted as quickly as possible as I need my laptop for work.

Even if you could open Disk Utility you can't reformat a disk while you are booted from it. You will have to use the install CD. Ring the Apple Online Store at the number given at bottom left of this page and give them the serial number of your Mac. You should be able to get the Snow Leopard install disks for a nominal fee.

Safari will no longer open. I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari. I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files.

Safari will no longer open. It just goes back to my desktop. When I right click on the safari icon in my dashboard it says it is open. I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari. I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files. Some of my emails from trusted sites won't open and does the same thing.
I upgraded my original system from 10.4.11 to I believe 10.6. something about a year or so ago. I thought about re installing my safari app but when I go to open anything connected to safari my screen goes back to the desktop. I cant open any files that I have on my desktop that I set up through safari, like my banking program. Prior to changing system preference to safari default I was able to open those files and now I can't get into change it back. Can you guide me through this?
Thanks,
Betty

Try running the 10.6.8 combo update.
10.6.8 Combo Updater
System Preferences or Safari Preferences?
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

Since installing 10.5, Itunes will no longer open automatically when I connect my Iphone or insert a CD. Nor will it, when I insert a CD, recognize the CD unless I close Itunes and open it again. Any ideas?

Purchase the Snow Leopard install DVD from Apple to install 10.6
After that uodate to 10.6.8 using Software Update

I attempted to perform the itunes update on two different PCs and itunes will no longer open and I received a message to reinstall itunes. The reinstall did not work and I now receive a Runtime error message (R6034) re: library loading incorrectly. Help?

I attempted to perform the itunes update on two different PCs. Itunes will no longer open and prompted me to reinstall itunes. The reinstall did not work after several attempts and I received an error: "Runtime error R6034. An application has made an attempt to load the C Runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information." Has anyone else had this issue? How can I resolve it?

I've been having the same exact problem this morning, and from the looks of it a lot of other people are posting about this issue, so I don't know if it's maybe something wrong with the download but I'm just relieved that it seems to be that instead of a corruption issue with my windows installation. I'm just wondering how long this will take to be resolved.

For unknown reasons iTunes will no longer open. I have an HP laptop running windows 7 with Kaspersky protection. It worked fine before but now won't open. I tried downloading the most recent up-date and it will still not open. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the reply with additional information.
Recent history for Premiere Elements points to the program having problems when more than 1 video card/graphics card is
being used by the computer on which Premiere Elements is running. This observation may seem contra indicated by the fact
that you say that the program did work well about 2 years ago in the same setup. But other factors may have set in with regard
to drivers, drivers versions, and driver conflicts. But this factor, does need to be ruled in or out.
Can you disable one or the other card to determine the impact of this on your problem?
But, of prime concern with regard to video card/graphics card is the use of a NVIDIA GeForce card with Premiere Elements 10.
Even if your NVIDIA GeForce were the only card, Premiere Elements 10 will not work properly unless the NVIDIA GeForce driver
version is rolled back to about May 2013. This may be one of the major factors here.
a. Device Manager/Display Adapters and find out Driver Version and Driver Date
b. Read the background information for the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
Also see the Announcement at the top of this forum regarding the matter - also with full details of the situation and how to fix with the
driver version roll back.
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
Thanks.

Add On...This NVIDIA GeForce situation is specific for Premiere Elements 10. You should not expect to see the problem for
later versions of Premiere Elements.

ITunes will no longer open

Hi there,
I have installed the newer version of iTunes, and it will no longer open when I click on the desktop icon, or use the Start/Programs/iTunes/iTunes. All I see is the hourglass for about 2 seconds, and then nothing. I have uninstalled and re-installed many times.
I have also read thru some articles here and have tried:
Go to My Computer\Tools\Folder Options\View and then choose "View All Hidden Files". Click OK. In My Computer, go to these files- local disk C:\documents and settings\all users\application data\apple computer\itunes\sc info and inside that is a file called SC Info.sidb and delete that. Check back to see if it opens after you complete that.
Still nothing works
I have disabled both Spyware and Sygate Firewalls ~ still nothing. I am unable download any music to my iPod at this time.
If you could offer some other suggestions, I would really appreciate it ~ or even if I could re-install the original version of iTunes, but don't know where this could be found.
Thanks
Windows XP

Hi, I've just managed to solve the same problem on my PC running WindowXP. As a clarification: I do NOT have Norton Security etc. or Norton Anti-Virus etc. installed; my search on these forums have revealed that there are problems associated with the above progs. In any case, a summary of the problem:
*Installed the iTunes package which came on disc for my iPod nano. Upgraded/Downloaded etc, etc, per instructions.
*Upgraded to iTunes 6.0.4.
* Launched upgraded iTunes. It worked. I was happy. I fiddle around with my new, fancy gadget.
* I go to work and then return. Attempted to launch iTunes. It didn't work. Fiddled around with running programs. iTunes suddenly came to life. I was happy.
* I shutdown iTunes.
*Attempted to launch iTunes again, didn't work - mouse shows 'busy' animation with hourglass then resumes; iTunes doesn't start-up. I was unhappy.
*Attempted to launch quicktime, same result - doesn't start-up. I was puzzled.
*deleted the SC info.sidb file as you have done, attempted to launch iTunes and quicktime, unsuccessful. I was unhappy.
Solution (at least, for me)
* I decided to risk utterly destroying my computer.
* Uninstalled quicktime.
* Downloaded and installed quicktime standalone.
* Rebooted.
* Tested quicktime - launched, and was working.
* Attempted to launch iTunes - no-go.
* I scream "you shall not defeat me!"
* Via control panel->Add/Remove Programs, I uninstalled iTunes.
* Rebooted per on-screen instructions.
* Reinstalled iTunes 6.0.4.
* Attempted to launch iTunes - launched successfully. I sighed in utter, complete relief.
Some oddities with my install: I didn't select iTunes as the default player for my music files, I don't quite know how this changes things; I suspect it doesn't.
Anyway, I rebooted about 3-4 times to test if iTunes would continue launching. It seems to be working fine. Knowing how fragile software is, however, it's bound to fall apart again. Or maybe I'm being pessimistic.

Itunes will no longer open on my computer

I tunes will no longer open on my computer. I unloaded ITUNES and then LOADED it again and it still still will not open on my compuer....I click the ITUnes Icon...looks like it wants to load, then I get a window that says, do you want to allow this program to make changes to your computer' I click yes, then the screen gets cartoonish...all icons get fuzzy..and Itunes still does not open. I have removed Itunes again, to get my comptuer screen back to the normal. What the **** is going on? It's always opened up just fine. Help??

Take a look at one of these Apple documents ->
iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
Does iTunes start normally in Safe Mode?
Are you seeing a user-specific or system-wide problem?
Do you see any error messages? Is there a number associated with the message or in the report?
