NETWORK crashes and doesnt open

Hello, my internet was not working and I read that I should go on Library/systemconfiguration and erase the whole file. I did so, and I restarted my computer. However, now when I open system preferences, and I click on NETWORK it crashes.
What should I do if it doesnt open it keeps crashing I cant open network at all... the roulette just keeps turning and turning and turning...

I tried creating another User Account and the problem persists.
Then you must have deleted a OS X system level file.
I dont understand how to recreate the folder.. can I do it without erasing anything on my computer ?
Yes, but you need to backup your personal data off the machine first as it's risky.
Copy your files to a external storage drive, you'll have to buy one at the local computer or office store.
Connect it, and don't set up a TimeMachine drive if it asks as it will take a long time and you will still have your problem. You can set that up later.
So say "No" to TimeMachine and drag and drop copies of your Users folders of "Music" "Pictures" "Movies" "Documents" and anything other folder in your "Home" folder that has your personal data in it to the external drive.
You will see a "+" sign and a window will appear that it's copying to the other drive.
When finished, unmount the drive, eject it and physically disconnect this external drive. Now you have a backup of your data off the machine and safe.
Now follow the steps in  18. Reinstall Just OS X
 Step by Step to fix your Mac
which will link to this page where it says:
How to reinstall just OS X
How to reinstall just OS X or erase/install OS X
This will give you a new OS X and fix all your OSX + Apple program problems in one shot
Make sure to Software update fully afterwards. You should be fine after that and the comptuer should operate with all your files etc.
Good Luck

  • My safari is not working. Every time i click on it says to reopen or dont reopen. i press reopen i gives me this long screen and it says reopen or press okay. when i press ok it closes the box and doesnt open. when i press reopen the long screen stay

    . Every time i click on it says to reopen or dont reopen. i press reopen i gives me this long screen and it says reopen or press okay. when i press ok it closes the box and doesnt open. when i press reopen the long screen and stays like that.

    If Safari crashes on launch and you don't have another web browser, you should be able to launch Safari by starting up in safe mode.
    You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
    If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.
    After removing the malware, remember to reset your home page in all the web browsers affected, if it was changed.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • Keeps crashing and doesnt have same ease as before dont like it

    keeps crashing and doesnt have same ease as before dont like it
    want earlier version how can i fix asap?

    Sorry you are havvig prolems,
    See [[Installing an previous version of firefox]] although that may not solve your problems.
    *It may also be worth looking at [[basic troubleshooting]]
    *and [[firefox crashes]] <-- clickable link-- blue
    Note it is relatively easy to make firefox 4 look and behave much like firefox 3.6.
    Hope the information helps.

  • Some sites needs Internet Explorer and doesnt open in Safari!!!

    Hello,
    There are couple of sites that doesnt open in Safari and the messege I get is : The TIBCO General Interface product requires Microsoft Internet Explorer v. 6.0 or greater.
    The website is http://www.dsm.com.qa/dsmsite/ And then click on Love Quotes.
    Please help me with it.
    Thank you!!!

    Hi,
    As Tom says, the website is geared towards Windows Internet Explorer users only.
    The only 2 options you have are to:
    1. Send them feedback about the problem to http://www2.dsm.com.qa/dsm/DSM_ContactUs and hope they eventually increase their compatibility with other systems.
    2. Run VirtualPC so that you are effectively running Windows on your Mac (or simply buy a cheap PC).
    Sorry it's not better news.

  • IPhone crashed during iOS5 update.  iTunes crashed and cant open or uninstall.  Please help

    iPhone 4 crashed and dumped everything while trying to update to iOS5.  Now iTunes won't open so I tried to run Apple Software Update... gets half way through the install and then i get an error... cant find fold containing the installation package 'AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi'. 
    I'm at a loss and need help getting iTunes back up and running so I can restore my iPhone.
    Regards,

    I am too trying to update my phone. i wish i hadnt now as its more hassle than its worth!
    I have been trying for 2 hours and on hold to Apple to try and get my iPhone 4 to restore. I did back up before I installed it but whether it picks that one up is another question.
    I have had the same problem before when i got a replacement phone from Apple and it took an hour or so to work.
    I wish it would get sorted out as im an angry customer that is losing her patience fast!

Does anyone know if there is a way to get all my apps and music to appear on this new iTunes. I understandiCloud just came out and that would have made it soooo simple any suggestions?

  • Accidentally changed cache location and the app crashes and never opens

    I recently changed the cache location to an external usb and whenever I try to open the app t crashes and gives me an error pop up. I cant change the cache location back to default since I can never open the app, feels like a catch22 situation. A simple reinstallation didn't seem to work. Any suggestions?

    Hello: Wait you changed the cache location folder for the spotify desktop spotify app, or changed the location for a system wide cache location? If you did a system wide cache move your probable going to run into all kinds of isssues. Would not it be a smart idea to plug in the USB device that was used in the change of cache location, and then try to launch spotify and see if it loads correct and finds the hacked moved new cache location? What about trying to retrace your steps in how you changed the default cache location, and just reverse the process to move the cache location back to it's default location, using the terminal system folder linking process, and then try to see if spotify will launch properly? I mean your on a Mac is your HD that small? I thought that was one of Apples selling points, larger memory run abilities, and larger HD space for their systems? Does not Mac have something called Time Machine, have your tried that route to fix the lost Cache location folder? 

  • Indd file crashed and never opened in cs6

    I worked at last night and when i was designing the last page,
    ID suddenly broken and I got a window error message.'Objectmodel.dll' error...
    but i didn't worried about it, bcz i saved file safely a hour ago before error comes out,
    so opened it, surely, ID asked about auto recovery, but i canceled,....
    and...
    i was surprised bcz even though it was saved a hour ago, it also crashed!
    Auto recovery file is also samely crashed....
    I tried many things such as installing new cs6 at my sister's computer, and cs6 on my another computer of my company,
    and I found another indd file is smoothly opened, and ID is so normal...
    but only this file never open again... constantly loading indicator moving....
    this situation is started when it loads 36p (all pages 41p)
    bcz this file loading is not finished, I can't open this file in every computer that i have..
    so I found a way to place all pages on new file on this forum, but i can't , bcz it never open!
    I have Macbook air, and also i tried to open it, but in my Macbook,
    i installed CC version, so I also can't open it in Macbook...
    somebody help me..!
    Is there any way to delete from 36p? (bcz i think this page have some ploblem maybe)
    or.. another way to fix it?

    It sounds like the file is damaged from the crash if it won't open on another computer, but you can try the blind-open export to .idml script here: Adobe Community: InDesign 6 is crashing when attempting to open a particular document. All others are opening OK.

  • Firefox crashed and when opened, it opened with just the first 25 tabs only. Also, I sessionrestore.js does not exist. Just sessionstore bak files.

    Hello, when it crashed, I did not get the normal window to select tabs to restore. It just opened the first 25 or so tabs. I looked in other forums about the sessionrestore.js file and searched for it but it doesn't seem to exist. I did this:
    copy and paste this: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ into your adress bar in windows explorer. It will bring you to your Firefox profile folder. Enter it, and search for a file called "sessionrestore.js", then right-click it and go to properties. The last tab in the 'properties' window is called "previous versions", click on it, and restore your file to a previous date saved on a System Restore storepoint. That's it! When you open Firefox again all your previous tabs will be there.
    MY system restore point is a couple of weeks ago and a lot of tabs were created since then.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thank you for your message as well. That option in about:config, if it is set to false the oops page will not show up, if you would like this to set it to true for future recoveries if you would like.
    This previous question has a few options to restore the 150 tabs, however I am not sure if it will work if the sessionrestore.js file is not there:
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/975598]
    The option show tabs from last time may have a limit, but I am not sure, let me check if there is a default.
    This was pretty handy as well when I was looking: [http://mzl.la/MCnd4M] That kb shows that it may just be as easy as renaming the .bak file to .js, however please save a copy of the file before renaming it so that it does not become corrupt. Because it crashed it cannot be sure that it is not corrupt.
    The .bak file will only be from the last time firefox was open. Each time firefox is opened the file will be overwritten, so just to warn you the 150 tabs may not be there if you have closed it since it reopened after the crash.
    Hope this helps!

  • After Effects crashed and wont open

    Ok so a few days ago I was working on After Effects CS5 and it crashed while rendering. I've to open it many times but always gives me the same message. I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it but the problem remains. And also downloading all adobe updates and it still doesn't work. If anyone could please help, if anyone actually knows the problem.
    This is the window that keeps appearing. Stressing me out!

    To clear all preferences, delete the entire 10.0 folder. After Effects will recreate a fresh copy when it starts.
    (Mac OS) <drive>/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/10.0
    (Windows) <drive>\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects\10.0

  • After updating and installing an icloud update for my 4th gen itouch, itunes crashed and doesnt recognize my new iphone, or any of my previous devices.  All of my songs are gone too.  How do I restore my itunes back to the way it was?

    Please Help.  Has anyone else experienced this crash? I spoke to support, and they hinted that this might be a common problem.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • Why does my email crash and not open at all on my iPhone 4S ?

    I've restarted my iPhone 4S several times, but still am unable to open the resident email program on my phone. It's works ok on my ipad 3. Any ideas on what I can try next?  I have several email accounts that dump into the inbox - aol, gmail, hotmail.

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    Have you tried ALL the troubleshooting steps?  If you have and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible exchange.
