My Video Icon will not open

I am trying to open my Video Library but it will not open, It appears to time out then close

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

My mail icon will not open

All my icons on my dock are opening without any problem, but my mail icon will not open.

Launch Launchpad. Click Mail icon in the Launchpad to
open Mail Application.
Does it open?
If Mail application launches from Launchpad, drag the old Mail icon in the Dock
upward about two inches, it will vanish in a puff of smoke.
Launch Mail, when Mail icon appears in the Dock, right click it,select "Options"
and then "Keep in Dock".

I have a 5min. video that will not open.Osstatus error-54 appears. Can this problem be resolved, if so, HOW?

I have a 5 min. video that will not open the cause of which appears to be due to an osstatus-54 error. can this be resolved & if so, how?

It means that the orignal video file is missing which is not good news. How was the file placed on the backup hard drive? Can you select the file on the EHD and play it with Quicktime Player? That will tell you if the backup is a good backup.

Help! My account lock icon will not open?

I noticed recently that when trying to download apple updates that the account and password window would not open to allow the update to finish downloading. I checked system preferences and system accounts and the lock icon is closed and when clicked will not open. My correct Admin name is listed but I can't access Login Options. This is preventing all actions that need login verification (updates, time machine, downloads, etc.) I want to download Snow Leopard but will be blocked when login window does not open. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated as I've searched the discussions in vain on this problem. I am old and not the brightest bulb on the technical side.

Just wanted to post the solution to my problem as a number of people checked the discussion. My main problem was that in System Preferences the Padlock symbol would not unlock (authentication would not produce the needed login window to proceed). This was causing multiple problems (no downloads, updates, time machine, etc would function). Below is the discussion that I finally found that addressed the problem and the solution which was an Archive and Install from the OS 10.5 DVD. Hats off to (jevlewt and Bob Gold) from 2009 for getting me back on track.

edited by host HARD DRIVE ICON WILL NOT OPEN ON DESKTOP WHEN CLICK

my HD will not open on desktop when i click on it. For 4 years i had no problem on this every.
why does this happen now?
what is wrong with the icon?
could my HD start becoming bad?
what are some signs that i should be "aware of" is this one?

You might try booting from DVD or another drive and running Disk Utility and Disk Warrior.
Or Single Users Mode (command s on startup) and follow on-screen instruction command
/sbin/fsck -fy
to repair your boot drive
... or a Safe Boot with shift key held down.
Corrupt prefs, directory, could be a number of small or major things.
But, in any case, make sure you have backups, and a bootable backup clone, maybe an emergency boot drive as well (install OS X on another drive if you don't have one now).

Videos application will not open?

The videos application on my iPad 2 will not open. All i get is a blank black screen when attempting to open 'videos'.

I don't fully understand what's involved but I've found that a System Reset cures many ills. It's easy, quick and harmless:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162. Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.
http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

My itunes icon will not open !!! please help

when i click the itunes icon all i get is this " to open this file windows will need to know what program created it" what do i do it won't work at all please help me out ....... thanks

You music etc should not be affected by problems with the iTunes program, nevertheless it is always a good idea to backup your data.
You haven't said if there was any error message when you tried to start iTunes. If there was one please give it in full.
Also check to see if QuickTime works, iTunes can not work without it. If QuickTime doesn't work, it has to be fixed before worrying about iTunes.
Then restart your PC and open your Task manger and select the Processes tab.
Try to start iTunes, does iTunes.exe appear on the processes tab? If so does it disappear again or remain although the programs does not open?

My iChat icon will not open when I click on it.... what should I do?

I've tried clicking the iChat icon on my Doc many times, and on my top toolbar on the top of the screen, it says iChat, as if the program is open.... yet there are no windows open....... BIT OF A PICKLE.

Hi,
You can get to this state two ways.
1) On starting iChat the first time you click through the Start Up Screen with entering any Screen Name or ID info and not turning on the Bonjour Option.
2) Having set up an Screen Name in ichat (Or just Enabled the Bonjour option) you have then used the red button which has closed the Window but not quit iChat
You have then Quit iChat. iChat remembers where the Buddy List windows were when you Quit even if they are "Hidden"
Lets start with 2)
In the iChat Menu go to the accounts sub item
Is anything listed here ? (Bonjour at least should be)
Un-ticked items are Not Logged in and so Buddy Lists will not show.
Selecting an Item will toggle the Tick and Log the Account In (Selecting it again removes the tick and logs out)
If an Item is Tick but there is no Window then it is "Hidden"
Now go to the Window Menu.
Any Logged in accounts also get listed here with Keystrokes next to them (CMD/Apple key plus a number)
Either select the item or use the Keystrokes
Clicking and Holding the DOCK icon should also give you an option to reveal any Logged in Buddy List.
Re 1)
If you did not set up an account you should be able to go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
The Bonjour item is always there in the list and can be Enabled (Use this account) on the right (Account Info tab)
The Bonjour Buddy List will only show Buddies if other iChat Users are on your LAN with iChat On and Bonjour Enabled.
You cannot add Buddies to this list (It will display their Name as they appear in their Address Book on their Computer
At the bottom of the list are two buttons. A Plus one to Add An Account/Screen name and a Minus one to Delete Accounts (You cannot delete the Bonjour one)
Clicking the add Button opens an new pane
The top item of this is a drop down to select either AIM, @Mac.com or MobileMe (All log in to AIM) and below the line the Jabber options of a Jabber server or GoogleTalk
Selecting either MobileMe or @mad.com and then pressing the "Get an iChat Account" button will take you to a web page (In Browser) to Register for an @mac.com name
(In iChat 5 the AIM option points to the previous AIM page for Registration but this has moved)
With Jabber or Google Talk you will have to have a Name first
You can of course get your AIM based name first and just fill in the details.
Once you have a name and filled it in with a password you can click Done.
NOTES
Registering an @mac.com name is applying for an Apple ID (Automatic)
The Password Strength indicator should be ignored as the AIM Servers can only cope with password up to 16 characters long.
Part of the process means you have to list an existing Email address.
This cannot be one already associated with an Apple ID you may already have (Such as using an ISP Email to register to post in Communities)
In Setting up an Account/Screen name in iChat you don't have to enter the password
If you do not iChat will ask you each time.
This at least stops people who get access to your computer logging in to your details.
These iChat 4 How Tos offer a longer explanation (Use the lower menu under the iChat 4 How to title: Work left to right)

Apple mail 6.5(1508)Click on mail icon will not open mail in safari

when I try to open my mail in apple mail 6.5 clicking on the mail icon ( that looks like a postage stemp) will result in nothing happens.I can get my mail in Chrome but not in Safari.It has been working until very recently but all of a sudden it just quit.I have tried various things to get it back,but nothing seams to help.Any help I thank for

Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application uninstaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Adobe Premier Elements Video Editor will not open

I just installed version 12 of Adobe Premier Elements on my Windows 7 (64) system and am unable to open Video Editor. I receive a message that the display driver is not current and a newer version would make the program run more efficiently. After some time, the video editor stops trying to load. I have verified all windows updates are loaded and that I have the most current Quicktime version. I have also unloaded and reloaded Adobe Premier Elements but this issue continues to persist. Please assist.

I suspect that this might be the immediate area to pursue
1. What is your video card's/chip's make and model?
AMD Radeon HD 8730M, Intel Graphics HD 4000
There have been discussions here about problems with Premiere Elements and a dual video card set up.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5747654
What happens if you disable the Intel Graphics HD 4000 and just work with the AMD video card?
This is one of John T. Smith's and Hunt's favorite subjects. So we should be hearing from them soon. Meanwhile their presence can be felt in the link that I have referenced on this subject of dual video cards.
More later.

My "Videos" app will not open on my iPhone 4S.

Whenever I click on the app, my screen goes white like it's about to load, but then it jumps right back to the home screen. I've looked at a few different solutions to this problem, but none of them seemed to work. I've restarted my phone and I've turned it off and back on. One solution that I saw numerous times was to download another app from the App Store, but that didn't work either. I would just remove the app in iTunes and sync it again, but you can't remove the Videos app. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Then the next step would be to restore your phone. My advice is that prior to restoring you import your photos and videos to your computer and back up your contacts (by syncing them with iCloud or to a supported program on your computer using iTunes) as a number of users report losing these when restoring their device.

My imac was running snow leopard and was upgraded to Mt. Lion. My Microsoft Office for Mac now will not open. SO since my Office was 2004, I just purchased Office for Mac 2011. Do I delete the icons before loading Office 2011 OR after I load 2011?

Upgraded my Imac to Mt. Lion and now the Microsoft Office icons will not open WORD, EXCEL, POWERPOINT, or ENTOURAGE. I just pruchased on Ebay
OFFICE 2011 since my old version was 2004. DO I REMOVE THE OLD ICONS BEFORE LOADING OFFICE 2011 RO AFTER I LOAD IT???
THANKS, DR PEPPERMINT

Office 2011 will install in a separate folder. But do not install Office 2011 until you remove Office 2004. It comes with its own uninstalled located in the MS Office folder. Only use the uninstaller to get rid of it. Then install Office 2011.
Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
You may want to consider as well:
These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
NeoOffice
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

Nothing works - no icons on desktop, finder will not open, etc.

I am running OS 10.4.7, and suddenly, nothing works. Finder will not open. iTunes will not open. Trash will not open. iPhoto will not open, etc. The only programs that seem to open are Safari and Mail (though Safari crashes if I try to watch any video, as Quicktime will not open). Moreover, all of the icons on the desktop have vanished, along with the info bar up top. Spotlight will not open either. I can't access the hard drive directory. Any suggestions? Or, should I just take it into the shop?
Thanks.

Hi, WillhelminBend. Welcome to the Discussions.
1. What changes did you make to your Mac, if any, before this problem arose? If the problem arose after making a change, it's possible the change is the cause.
2. See my "Multiple applications quit unexpectedly or fail to launch" FAQ for advice on troubleshooting this issue.
Good luck!
