MX 2004 won't open on Mac Mini OS 10.5.7, HELP!

I recently moved over from my G4 laptop (just plumb worn out) to a MacMini. I've done a clean install, the subsequent fix/upgrade, and then the later fix/upgrade, and to no avail. All it will do when I click on the icon is bounce on the menu bar, look like it's open (little highlight under the icon), but nothing more. I have to force quit. HELP! I'm getting more and more behind!

Thanks for the suggestions... tried changing resolution and that had no effect, and I've checked my Perian and DivX installations in System Preferences and both say they are completely up to date. I upgraded Quicktime today to 7.5 before all of this became a problem -- but I don't know how to upgrade iLife. In Software Update everything is completely up to date (eg each of the iLife apps).
Oh well, iMovie is not very useful to me anyway -- just somehow annoying that it fails to work. No point flogging a dead horse!!
Any other ideas gratefully received... many thanks in advance

Why won't iTunes won't open on mac mini?

Recently installed 2 gigs memory in my 2007 mac mini, wiped the hard drive, and installed OS x 10.6.4.( done at the apple store ) iTunes icon appears in applications but won't open when clicked. Help. I'm an old guy and not very computer savvy

You do not have to load the airport utility.. a newer version is already included on the computer.
Just go to the applications / utility directory and start airport utility.

If you are having the installation media and serial number I would suggest you to uninstall and re-install the product.

Netgear genie won't open on Mac mini.

I can no longer get netgear genie to open on my Mac mini. It'll install and say it installed correctly but when opening it it'll say it can't open on this type of Mac. A gives? It used to work. And talking to their support is pointless. I made my points insanely simple and they still had no grasp of what I was asking. I'm trying to enable the AirPrint from my iPhone/iPad to a printer hooked to my Mac mini. Any thoughts?

If your computer has got an Intel Core Duo processor, the only thing I understand is that the program only supports 64-bit processors, so you can't use that program. Also, you can use Printopia to print with AirPrint

Imovie won't open on mac

imovie won't open on mac
what do I do .... I have clicked force quit as it is unresponsive?
I have shut down computer. Unplugged power for 30 seconds and opened back up still the same problem. Help please!!!

So you don't have the iLife 09 disk either? (Can't remember if that was a separate disk or not).
Hmmm, it'd be better if you had the iLife disk.....
So, first you need to buy Snow Leopard (call Apple, it's the best price there); once you install it, update it to 10.6.8. That will give you the Mac App Store - you need that to buy Mountain Lion (download only, no disks). You will also want to up your RAM memory toa s much as you can - Mountain Lion is somewhat of a memory hog.
If you don't have your iLife disks, then a bootable clone on an external drive is an absolute must have just in case. You should do the first one before you install Snow Leopard just in case. Then, once you're up to 10.6.8 and all your applications are updated 9ncluding iLife, make a new bootable clone before you download/install Mountain Lion. Keep that clone safe just in case you need to revert or something goes wrong (especially if you don't have disks).
Once Mountain Lion is downloaded, first dismiss the installer and find it in your Applications folder. Make a copy of it and put it in a safe place (so you don't need to download it again). Then begin installing; when finished, run Software Update. Hopefully, your iMovie will be updated to the latest version. At that point, I'd make another clone and keep that one updated.
Having said all that, I'm not sure about iMovie not responding now - since you don't have disks, you can't reinstall it, so I don't know if upgrading will work. Normally one should take care of any problems before upgrading, but unless you want to buy a retail iLife 09 or 11 (which is still available online here and there), there isn't much you can do about installing.

Adobe Illustrator CS6 won't open in Mac 10.10 without Java SE 6 Runtime. Where do I get it.

Adobe Illustrator CS6 won't open in Mac 10.10 without Java SE 6 Runtime. Where do I get it.
I went to Jave and downloaded the latest version of Java 8 Update 31 for Mac, but it still won't open.

dchasin,
You may be able to get round the legacy JAVA requirement as follows:
Create empty folders at “/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk” and “/System/Library/Java/Support/Deploy.bundle”, to make Illustrator use Jave SE 8 as it should.

IPad Mini Won't Sync With Mac Mini (ios 8.1 OSX 10.6.8)

Problem : IPad Mini connects to iTunes OK, can be seen in iTunes and I can select which movies to sync to it etc. When I hit the "apply" button after making a change (ie deleting or adding a movie) the sync lasts just a second then the "sync" button remains greyed out, and I can't make them sync.

Apple says that the Mac was supposed to be erased and taken back to the most recent version of OS X with which it shipped. You should not have any of the previous owner's apps. That violates the Terms of Use for Mac App Store apps.

Just updated itunes software on my windows PC and now it won't open because of Runtime error R6034 can you help?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Question
Images won't open in my gmail or websites can anybody help me? This happen when I updated to the newest version of Firefox

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
* Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
* Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
* Check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
* Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images)
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that can block images.

Mac won't open non-Mac software

I turned on my desktop Mac this morning and none of my non-Mac applications (Photoshop, Microsoft Word, Excel, InDesign, Cyberduck, etc.) would open. The Mac applications - Mail, iChat, Preview - work normally, but not Safari. I re-started the computer several times and they still won't open. The icons bounced up and down for a long time, then stayed still but the light under the icon that indicates the application is open was not on. When I opened the "Force Quit Applications" window to force quit the applications, some of them (Photoshop and InDesign) showed as open, while the others (Microsoft Office and Internet browsers) showed as "not responding". I don't know what is happening - everything was fine when I last used the computer.
So far, I have tried repairing the permissions using Disk Utilities, which did not help. Any idea on how to fix this will be very much appreciated.

Thank you, sanjampet and a brody. I reset the SMC but it didn't work. And I don't have Mackeeper. I also tried resetting the PRAM and did a few other things (throwing out preferences, etc.) but none worked. At the end, I decided to re-install the operating system using OS X Internet Recovery. It took about 7 hours but it solved the problems! After re-installation, I was able to open all non-Apple applications without any problems. In fact, they seem to open a little faster than before. I wonder if the re-installed OS came with patches that fixed the problems. It did ask to download a java script when I opened InDesign.
@a brody; thanks for setting me straight about Apple vs. Mac. I was pretty distraught yesterday (lost a full day of important designing work) and wasn't thinking clearly ...
