Secure Global Desktop - Won't Launch Application

We are having a problem with SGD - we can not launch applications.
We had SGD up and running good. However, we had several things occur and now it does not work. First we had to relocate our server due to building renovations. Then shortly after setting up the system in the new location, we had a hard drive fail. And unfortunately the sys admin guys did not have a good/current backup of the drive. We did however reload a backup that was about 9-months old. However it does not work correctly now.
We can bring up the main SGD web page, can login to the system, and see the applications and function set up in object manager. However when we try to launch an application it fails.
Looking in the error.log file we see a message "failed to open display"
However we can not see how SGD sets the display to enable the application to be viewed over the web connection.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Finally able to get into the Calssic Webtop. I ended up increasing the file descriptors and rebooting. I then totally removed the package again and installed again.
I get a java i/o exception if I select the first desctop login, but I fI select the classic webtop, I can at least log in and get the display page of the applications avaialble. When I select an application, I get a server timeout and the app does not start.
Now, I just need to figure what the issues are now and resolve them.

.zxp won't launch application manager

I downloaded the adobeExchangePanel.zxp file and wanted to install it. Windows 7 wants to know what program to use. The instructions on this website said to use Adobe Application Manager. It is not listed anywhere within the windows options. I checked the properties for the program and it appears to be an applet.
I tried to launch the Application Manager first, but that did no good. I could not find any way to tell it to open the .zxp file.
How can I get this Exchange Panel installed?
Gary.

Hi Gary, Please use Adobe Extension Manager to install Adobe Exchange.
If you do not have Extension Manager, please download it from here: http://www.adobe.com/exchange/em_download/

IBook G3 refuses to launch applications

Hello!
I recently obtained a iBook G3 Dual USB (500 MHz/ 64 MB RAM/ 10 GB HD) off ebay. It just happened to be a public school board surplus computer from some school district in North Carolina.
Anyway, besides the point. I am having a issue. The machine won't launch any applications (such as Word '98, Appleworks 6, Stuffit Expander). It gives me either an error type 1, 2, 3 or a bomb error type 10. I researched a little and found something about the "Internet Config Extension" needs to be enabled, but it isn't in the extension list. The icon is, however in the Extension folder but doesn't appear in the Extension list that allows you to turn them on/ off.
I read that you could also download URL Access 2.3 from Apple, however my iBook won't launch it due to it requires Stuffit Expander, which gives me an error because it won't load applications. This is using Mac OS 9.2. The machine did not come with system disks (a mistake I horribly regret with buying it) but now that I have it I don't want it to go to waste. I'd like to get some kind of help to where I could get the OS fixed without a required reinstallation.
Any help will be greatly appreciated! I'm not entirely sure, but this could also be a hardware issue. It was suggested to me by a friend the hard drive might be going bad on the unit because it is loud and sometimes finder will unexpectedly quit or i'll get a bomb error on the login menu.
Thanks again,
Jake

Are you certain that the Tiger discs are CDs? Tiger originally came on DVDs. There was a media exchange program that allowed someone to exchange the DVDs for CDs if they didn't have a DVD drive, so the CDs do exist, but they are rather rare. I can tell from the 64 MB of RAM that yours is equipped with just a CD-ROM drive (no DVD compatibility). (If you have an external DVD drive, this shouldn't be a problem.)
Upgrading the hard drive is a complicated thing to do:
http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repair/iBook-G3-12-Inch-Hard-Drive/130/1
If you're up to doing that hard drive upgrade (or know someone who is), you maximize the RAM, and you really have the Tiger CDs (or an external DVD drive), then it should work. You won't have the applications that came with the iBook, though (such as AppleWorks). And say goodbye to Word 98, too, unless you have the software to install it on the new hard drive.

Why have my notes and contacts been deleted and my applications won't launch

I tried using my iPad mini today but both my notes and contacts have been deleted and my applications either won't launch at all or launch for a few minutes and then shutdown. I also tried to download another app which said had been downloaded but I couldn't find it anywhere, the same thing happened with another app I downloaded. It was working fine yesterday and I haven't updated it or done anything out of the ordinary since then. What's wrong?

There are some simple troubleshooting steps you can take.
Be sure you drive is not overly full. Rule of thumb would be over 85%.
Create a new User go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the apps in this new account, if they work the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
If the issue is limited to your user account try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
If the issue is systemwide then, you may be able to repair this with the The 10.6.2 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.

Acrobat Pro 9 for mac won't launch, reloaded from disk when hard drive needed to be replace. It's in applications folder but there is an X on the Acrobat Reinstall icon. What should I do.

Acrobat Pro 9 for mac won't launch, reloaded from disk when hard drive needed to be replace. It's in applications folder but there is an X on the Acrobat Reinstall icon. What should I do.

Hi Janice,
What version of Mac OS are you using?
Adobe does not recommend migrating the software from one disk to the other.
Please run the setup file for Acrobat and reinstall the software. You might want to delete the existing version of Acrobat installed before reinstalling it.

Applications won't launch in Yosemite OS X

After installing Yosemite OS X some applications such as Photoshop CS6, Firefox won't launch. The icons of the applications keep bounching in the dock and after a while it will stop bounching with the message "Application Not Responding". Seems like every application which isn't by Apple has launching problems...
Need help to fix this fast.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Non-Apple applications won't launch

On Intel iMac, recently many non-Apple applications won't launch, including Photoshop, Indesign, Quicken, Filemaker, Techtool Pro. On the other hand, Mail, Safari, iPhoto, iTunes, Pixadex, Ultralingua all launch just fine. The non-launchers quickly present the window with Ignore, Report..., Relaunch; and using Relaunch just brings the window up again.
I've tried Disk Utility, both from the drive and from the OSX install disk; Time Machine back to just before the problem started; removed .plist file from Preferences: all to no avail.
While this problem started one week ago, we have had a new iPhone 3G since July 12 (since I see a few discussions with the same error codes related to iPhone).
Below are the error reports for Photoshop and Filemaker, and some system info.
What can I do to fix this? Thanks!

No idea what caused it, but your PPC emulator is definitely hosed and doing a clean installation would probably be less time consuming than figuring out what the problem is.
This is also all very old software that was never meant to run in Leopard at all, so you should consider the possibility that some of it will simply never work.

If I delete the iBooks app that for some reason won't launch, will all my files still be there when I reinstall it? Or will they be saved on iCloud?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You will need to redownload your books again.

Some Applications won't launch in RDP

I am using RDP to get into some Hyper-V VMs. Most applications launch no problem but I have a few similar ones that will launch local on the server through the VM Connector but when I use RDP they won't launch.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server forum.
What’s the server & client OS using in your environment? Also let us know the RDP version used.
In meanwhile please check that the application which you want to take RDP does not have any compatibility issue for the server or client you are using. Because it might happens sometime due to compatibility reason. As you already mentioned that there is issue
with some specific application.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Finder won't launch and application icons just bounce

I successfully logged in. But then it went to just a blue screen with the dock on it. No hard drive showed up in the corner. Applications just bounce, then get an unexpectedly quit message. Finder won't launch at all. Tried disk repair, permissions repair; these were all fine. Have no idea what to do next and could really use some help! Thanks.

I would startup from your install disc. Enable root user which is found under utilities on the menubar, and restart the computer. Then see what happens when you login as root.

Application (Civ 4) won't launch

Hi, strangely (and frustratingly) Civ 4 suddenly won't launch for me; no error message, nothing, it just bounces a few times in the dock and stops. I've never had any problems before. I found a few similar threads here, and followed the advice there, but nothing seems to help. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program, I've verified that I have the latest software updates, and have repaired permissions (twice, once in safe mode). Not sure what else to do. I'm a relative mac newbie, so advice for dummies would be appreciated!
I have a MacBook Pro, running Mac OS X 10.4.11, 2.2 GHz Intel processor, with 4 GB of RAM and 35 GB of free memory. Never had any similar problems, this just popped up out of the blue, and only seems to affect this one application. Thanks for any help, David

Here's the crash log from attempt to launch Civ4 Warlords. I note that this was the first time I tried to launch is after installing the new Quicktime 7.6.
Thanks,

Mail app won't launch: "No Info.plist file in application bundle..."

Hi -
I'm running 10.6.8 on an Intel iMac and haven't used Mail in a long time. I tried to start it today and it won't launch. I opened the Package Contents for the app from the Finder, and double clicked the Mail executable. It launched in a Terminal window and gave the following error message:
Last login: Thu May 24 12:17:01 on ttys000
/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Mail ; exit;
imac:~ Bill$ /Applications/Mail.app/Contents/Mail ; exit;
2012-05-24 12:37:01.769 Mail[26585:903] No Info.plist file in application bundle or no NSPrincipalClass in the Info.plist file, exiting
logout
I looked and there is a file called Info.plist in the folder and it even has the string NSPrincipalClass in it. Beyond that, I am clueless!
Any help much appreciated!
Bill

I would download and run the OS X 10.6.8 Combo update.
I peeked into it with Pacifist, and it contains an update for Mail.app, including replacements for the executable and the info.plist:
