My iPhoto will not open. Please Help.
My iPhoto will not open. I try and open the application but nothing happens. The icon appears in the dock, but it isn't open. An error message does not appear either. When I try and click on an option in the toolbar everything becomes greyed out.

The iphoto and itunes will not open please help
on my Mac G5 the iphoto and itunes will not open can anyone help
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
Then, hold the Option key down when trying to open iPhoto, does it ask where it's Library is? Or what exactly happens? -
TS1717 iTunes will not open- please help!
My iTunes will not open. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but the same message keeps showing up when I try to open iTunes. The error reads "C\Windows\system32\dssenh.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support."
Please Help!!!Taken at face value, you're having trouble with one of the Windows OS dlls associated with Cryptographic Services.
I'd first try the fixit from the following Microsoft document. (One of the things it does is reregister your copy of the dssenh.dll file.)
You cannot install some updates or programs
... but if you still get the issue, I'd try an sfc /scannow as per the instructions in the following document:

Itunes Icon bounces, will not open PLEASE HELP!?
I have an Imac G4 running 10.4.11. I am/was using Itunes 7.6.4. About a month ago afer downloading and installing updates from the system updater, My Itunes stopped working. When I attempt to open the app either from the dock or from the applications folder, the Icon will bounce once, sometimes two or three times, then stop, and the App will never load. I tried repairing permissions, no response. I tried removing the "com.apple.itunes.plis" file from User>Library>Preferences because i saw it in a forum for a similar problem on this site, no response. I backed up my music, deleted itunes, and reinstalled, no response. I deleted the application, then attempted to install an older version of itunes 7.5, same result.
I dont know if it matters, but i have a Shuffle model A1204, and an Iphone. I am at a loss. I have all my discs that came with the computer, and I'm up for trying anything. Im at whits end. Please help.You may have to reinstall the OS or even upgrade to Leopard. By the way, get a new mac if you want to upgrade.

When i click on the iPhoto icon, the program does not open. It does look like it's open at the top of the screen; it says "iPhoto" next to the Apple logo, but the program is not open.
Sounds like the app is open but the Window has disappeared off screen. Try changing your display resolution, whcih will force the machine to redraw all the windows, and this will usually make it visible. You do this at System Preferences -> Displays. You can change it back afterwards.

Itunes 7.0.2 will not open- please help!
I have just downloaded the new itunes 7.0.2. It downloads seemingly successfully and the icon appears on my desktop but if I try to open it an hourglass appears for a second, then disappears and then nothing happens at all. It refuses to open at all and gives no error message.
Please help!!Make sure your Windows software is up to date. I was having the exact same problem, but then I went to microsoft.com, updated my software (I don't use the automatic updates), rebooted, then removed iTunes, iPod, and QuickTime completely from my computer (using add/remove programs in the Control Panel), rebooted, then reinstalled iTunes 7, and now it is working perfectly.
Also check to make sure your anti-virus software firewall is allowing full access to itunes.exe, ituneshelper.exe, quicktimeplayer.exe, qttask.exe, and qtinfo.exe.
Hope this helps. Only took me five hours to get mine working. -
ITunes will not open, please help
the instruction at "0x0079f791" referenced memory at "0x7ffe0304." the memory could not be "written"
This is the error received by my friend when she tries to start her iTunes, and I was wondering if anyone else had seen this; It sounds more like a memory allocation error than an error with iTunes, but I figure it's worth a shot... any idea what's going on there and how to fix it?
Thanks!Have a look at this page and see if anything there helps: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch failures

Apps will not open please help
When i try to open some of my apps on my 3rd gen ipod touch they will open and then close before i can do anything. what do i do?
Before you try the previously suggested options, open itunes on your sync computer and reauthorize your account, then connect the device and sync it.
I had this problem which appears to be related to the apple function to "deauthorize" your device in the event it is lost or stolen. There is also an KB out there on this as well.
Hope that this information is of value.

my iPhoto will not open since I installed Mavericks. Can anyone help with this please?
Do you have one of the versions that are shown here with the forbidden symbol over them:
If so you'll need to upgrade iPhoto to 9.5.1 from the App Store. It'll be a free upgrade.

I downloaded the new iphoto and the upgrade and now iphoto will not open correctly anymore. it stays on the opening screen and the message
shows up that I must update the mediathek. If I click on update the program shuts down. How can I fix this?I downloaded the new iphoto and the upgrade
Does that mean, you are running iPhoto 9.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 Yosemite? Or are you using an older MacOS X? "New" iPhoto is relative and depends on your system.
If I click on update the program shuts down. How can I fix this?
Does "shut down" mean it crashes? Then post please the error log from the error panel here - copy and paste the report into your next answer (the first 50 lines should suffice)
Where is your iPhoto Library (Mediathek) stored? Have you moved it to an external drive, or is it still in your Pictures folder (the order "Bilder")? -
just completed the upgrade to os x Yosemite on my MacBook 5,4 only to find that iPhoto will not open. It came up with a message that I go to the app store and upgrade to the latest version of iPhoto , however the App Store also refuses to open. I would really appreciate any help. Thank you
Hi Terence
I have the same problem after installing yosemite. When I want to update it give the following message..
This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.
Should I contact apple directly?
Thanx for your time -
My iphoto will not open, I updated my computer to the OS X 10.9.5 maverick. Please Help!
I downloaded OS X Maverick 10.9.5 and Now my iphoto will not open. It says it can't use this version application on os x. HELP- What do I have to download to get my iphoto back up? Thank you!
This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks. It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgradeto iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
Note 1: every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
Note 2: If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1 -
Hello all
My iPhoto will not open. I get a system popup saying "iPhoto is being updated. iPhoto cannot be opened while it is being updated".
I have checked and it is not being updated and I have restarted the Mac.
Suggestions will be gratefully received!
Many thanks!Try delete it and reinstall.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always. -
Downloaded yosemite OSX 10.10 and now iPhoto will not open. When I try to update to iPhoto 9.6, it tells me it can not be be downloaded with "this Apple ID. It is the only Apple ID I have ever had. Please help
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
