Newly downlowded third-party apps won't open.

I have a mid-2010 MacBook Pro and am running OS 10.8.4.  Recently, I have tried to download several third party applications.  I got the usual Gatekeeper warnings and have bypassed them.  In fact, I have disabled Gatekeeper completely.  I have also turned off Gatekeeper's automatic updates to the list of known malware sites (not sure if my lingo is correct on this one).  Anyway, I don't think Gatekeep is the issue.  When I get the app downloaded, I will try to open it, and the icon will pop up very briefly on my bottom toolbar.  However, it disappears immediately and the program does not run.  This issue seemed to have started when I upgraded by system to Mountain Lion.  I have looked everywhere for an answer to this, but can't find it.  Can anyone help?  Thanks!

Information from the Chrip site indicates the app is supported by Intel but it doesn't say anything about exactly which Mac OS X is supported. It may not work on ML v10.8.4

I downloaded the Chirp file. Keep in mind it's a .zip meaning it's an archived file. I tried opening with the Unarchiver app from the Mac App Store, but no go. No dialog, nothing.

  • All third party apps won't open after moving to 4g

    I updated the desktop to iTunes 10 and downloaded all of the updates to my iPod apps. I bought a new 4g to replace a lost 2g. I synced after dl'ing app updates to the desktop.
    All 3rd party apps only open and close all in 1/2 second.
    Will the suggestion on the support page about reauthorizing the computer help this issue?
    I haven't been able to get back home to try. Thanks.
    (disregard specs below.... I still have all that, but now I'm on my 4gTouch)

    Sorry, I was sending that from my iPod.
    I lost my last iPod. It was backed up on iTunes on my Desktop computer. It was a 2G model.
    I've been off the internet for about 4 months but recently bought a new 4G Touch and got a new Broadband2Go card.
    So, I used my Desktop computer to update all the apps for my Touch to iTunes on my Desktop, then I synced my iPod to my Desktop to apply all of the updates to the Touch.
    All apps are there, just like before, but nothing will open. Only the Apple apps. They flash but close right away.
    I'm home now, and will try the Apple suggestion in the FAQ.
    I just wanted to make sure it was the best way to approach my particular problem.

  • Third Party Apps Won't Open

    This morning, I finally got around to updating my iPhone 3G to 3.1.2. However, as soon as I did so, all of my third part apps STOPPED working. They would open for a second and then close right away. Apps like iPod, Mail, and Phone work, but anything not made my Apple (including Facebook) will NOT! I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling apps, reauthorizing my computer, restarting my iPhone, calling it dirty names (not that I expected that to help) -- everything I can think of. Is anyone else having a similar issue? Does ANYONE have a solution??

    There are a number of existing threads on this issue. See here, for example:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2229153&tstart=0
    The short answer is to 're-purchase' an app, (even an existing one) on the phone. See the referenced link for more information.

  • All my 3rd party apps won't open on my iPhone 4.

    Recently all my apps won't open on my iPhone. All the stock Apple apps work though. All the 3rd party apps don't work. What can I do? I tried resetting, and restoring. What else should i try?

    I'm also going through this problem and the only way to fix it (as far as I know) is go to App Store in your iPhone and download any random app (free app preferably), then make sure all your 3rd party apps work again and delete the random app you just downloaded.

  • Third Party Apps Don't Open

    I activated a Lumia 928 two days ago and immediately discovered that the 3rd party apps do not open.  I've done a soft and hard reset multiple times.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the apps with no luck.  Any more suggestions?

  • My 3rd party apps won't open. Please Help (Ipad Mini 6.1.3)

    I have downloaded a 3rd party app, after using it for several weeks without interruption. It suddenly won't open (crashes) everytime I tried to open it. I have already tried on re installing the app, but nothing happened. Please help, I badly needed that app.

    Try deleting the app, closing all apps in the recents tray, reboot the iPad, and then download the app again.
    In order to cloase all apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Close all of them. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Download the app again.

  • Third party apps won't run

    I've had my iPhone for a couple months. Last weekend I upgraded to os 3.0. Today I had to restart my phone. Since then, no 3rd party apps will run. They start, then immediately quit. Native apps work fine. Any suggestions?

    I had the same issue on my iPhone 3G.
    I've installed iPhone OS 3.0, everything worked fine for several days, included bought apps and then after a crash, there was no way to launch bought apps (the same way the others experienced it).
    I was away from my computer so I wasn't able to try anything on it (sync, restore, etc...).
    Reboot iPhone several times, reset, hard reboot, log off/log in appstore account: NONE WORKED
    Finally, I went into App Store on iPhone, then in updates, I've updated some app I have to update and... YES, it fixed the problem for me.
    I was able to launch my bought apps again. Everything worked fine again and I recovered all my apps with all my prefs, scores, etc...

  • Should I downgrade from iOS 6.1.3 to 6.1.2? Because some apps won't open. It keeps on crashing.

    Tap tap, GarageBand, and other apps won't open. Is it about the firmware?

    You cannot downgrade the iOS since it is not supported. This support article explains how to trouble shoot 3rd party apps on the iPad.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    If all third party apps will not open, try downloading another app. Any free app will work or any already purchased app that is not currently on the iPad.
    If the troubleshooting article doesn help, I would try this. Close all apps and reboot the iPad.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Did latest iPhone update and now non of my third party apps work.  They open then close immediately.   I tried to restore but can't as my iphone wont sync with itunes now and I will loose my apps.  Also my largest app "Sat Nav" has gone.  Help ??

    Hi All
    I have run into problems with my iPhone 4.  I hadn't done an update for a while so decided to get my itunes and iphone 4 up to date.  I downloaded all the latest versions.  However now non of my third party apps work and my largest one has vanished.  I try and open them and they flash up and then close again. I thought the easiest thing to do was to restore so I tried to syn my apps onto itunes so I wouldn't loose them.  However it won't let me sync the apps onto iTunes.  It ill allow me to syn the old version when I just started but since then I have bought a dozen other apps.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    Well this won't work for me...
    I had all of my apps and music stored in iTunes, I updated to the newest 9.2 iTunes and did a 4.0 update to my iPhone 3G all the while not noticing that EVERYTHING IN iTUNES was GONE. When I got done updating my iPhone it was late so i went to bed... Next day came back to sync everything and thats when I saw it was all gone...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    did what the link said and NOW I have all my 6K+ MUSIC back but not ONE APP. The App's are completely gone from when you nav. to the location the link says... There isn't a mobile sync folder there...
    NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT... Very Frustrated and MAD. I don't want to redownload all my apps manually. TO many to do it that way.

  • Third Party Apps Not Opening on iPhone 5 using iOS 6.0.2

    I have an iPhone 5 and am using iOS 6.0.2 and recently certain third party apps like Facebook, Instagram, Shazzam for instance, no longer open.  When I tap on the app, the app comes up on the screen for about a second, and then closes.  What's strange is that I've been using iOS 6.0.2 and have also been using the most updated versions of the apps without any issues.  The crashing started happening around last Friday.  Here's what I've tried to do to fix the problem so far but none of these options have worked:
    - I restarted my phone by holding down the home button and the lock button. 
    - I turned my phone off and turned it on again. 
    - I deleted the apps and reinstalled them and then restarted my phone. 
    - I downloaded a random free app, opened it, and then tried opening the apps that kept crashing.
    - I restored my phone and synced it using the most recent back up I had, which was from earlier that day. 
    I did find a temporary solution, that allows the apps to open but I think it's because the apps are not the most recent versions. 
    - I restored my phone and set it up as a new phone.  The phone then downloaded all of the apps again and re-synced everything.  The apps did open after that however, when I went to the app store, it said that I had 24 available updates.  I updated all of the apps to their most up to date versions and then noticed that they once again stopped opening and would crash almost immediately after launching them. 
    - I then restored my phone again and set it up as a new phone and did not update the 24 apps and all but one of them work.  The only app that I've noticed that still doesn't work is the Blackboard Eats app.  It still crashes almost immediately after launching it. 
    I took my phone to the Genius Bar this weekend (which is where I was told to restore the phone and set it up as a new phone).  I'm thinking that the issue is purely a software issue, but is there any chance that it could be a hardware issue? 
    I suppose I could just not update the apps, but I'm hoping there's a better solution than that.  What's weird is that the phone was working with iOS 6.0.2 and all of the most up to date versions of the apps less than a week ago and it seems that somehow, overnight, they stopped working. 
    Is anyone else running into this problem?  Has anyone found a solution? 
    Thanks in advance,
    Kevin

    The music player does not remember where the last session ended.  I have about 1000 songs on my iPhone.  I play the songs in the Shuffle mode - and it worked fine on iOS 5.x.  Ever since I updated to iOS 6.0, the shuffle seems to be seriously broken.  It repeats the song sequence of previous session in the exact order instead of starting from where the session ended.  God forbid if your last session was 10-25 songs long - you'll have to hit the Next song so many times to listen to something that you have not heard for a while.

  • Open attachments in compatible third-party apps.

    I have I-phone 32 GS and I upgrade to IOS 4
    Can any one adv me how to open attachments in compatible third-party apps.

    What countries outlawed the shutter noise on a camera?
    And wouldn’t BB need to police BB World for programs that would support illegal activity in the countries you mention?
    “In case you skipped over reading your link, no where is BlackBerry mentioned. Why would BlackBerry be addressing gaping holes in the Android OS? There is no Android OS on BlackBerry10.”
    OF COURSE the article doesn’t mention BB. The point is that while people become more trusting with their devices and are told to “download the app” they tend to not read what they are signing up for. Despite your lack of vision in reference of something that could be phony, malicious programs exist and mobiles are ever increasing as targets.
    “Finally, if you want bicker, nitpick and continue off-topic, please create your own thread elsewhere. This is thread is for Feature Requests. I responded to the user with alternatives. You responded with opinion, snarky commentary and inuemndo. Offtopic to this thread.”
    I wasn’t off topic. You quashed the users requests with 3rd party apps and gave your opinion on moving apps to an SD card. I was making a point that the need for 3rd party involvement would be unnecessary if the issue was addressed at the OS. As well as a reason to avoid a 3rd party if at all possible, furthermore I was explaining why downloading apps something is to be cautious of.

  • Macbook pro crashes when opening third party apps

    I have a Mid 2010 15" MBP With mavericks 10.9.3 on . I can't open spotify , chrome and most third party apps, they just sit and bounce on the dock then freeze.
    I have completely wiped the hdd ( and replaced with SSD too ) and started from fresh and still having the same issue.
    This is really started to bug me no as its pretty much rendering my MBP useless, It's been to the apple store genius bar and had the hardware tests ( pre ssd change ) and it passed them ( apart from the HDD drive test on its own which wouldn't load for them ) he suggested it could be the hdd or ribbon cable.
    I have now upgraded the hdd to ssd and still the same issue.
    He was able to boot to an operating system on their server and run third party apps that way.
    Would the system still boot with a faulty ribbon cable ? This seems like a programing bug to me !
    Cheers for any assistance in advanced !

    btodman93,
    if you have an external disk enclosure or a SATA-to-USB or SATA-to-FireWire adapter, try booting from one of your disks externally using Startup Manager. If it runs well externally, but crashes internally, then that could point to the internal SATA cable being faulty.

  • Numbers quit unexpectedly while using the SFCompatibility plug-in? Do I need a third party app to open this xls?

    Numbers quit unexpectedly while using the SFCompatibility plug-in.
    Do I need a third party app? Can't find any info on web without that as only option.

    Numbers is able to open xls and xlsx files, but you may find greater compatibility with some on the Excel features in one of the OpenOffice.org based applications, OpenOffice.org, Libre Office or Neo Office. All three are available on the web. One requires a recent donation for the most recent version.

  • HT1725 My newly downloaded numbers app won't open on my iPad?

    My newly downloaded numbers app won't open on my iPad?

    You could try deleting and then re-downloading the app via the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if it then works (re-downloading).
    And/or you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
