I have multiple iPhoto libraries and when I selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open apps window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

I have multiple iPhoto libraries on my Macbook Air 10.7.5 and when I am selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open application window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

If you're pushing Option at the exact moment you're clicking the Dock icon, it's supposed to do that. Wait until just after clicking it.

Opening PDFs from gMail account in iBooks

I've previously opened PDFs from gMail messages using iBooks but today, for some unknown reason, I cannot open any new PDF file attachment larger than 200k.
iPod Touch 8GB (2nd generation) using iOS4.1- Still have 5.7GB available so I'm not sure why certain size files won't open.
I've even tried using Safari w/ gMail account - In both cases, as soon as I try to open the PDF attachments w/ iBooks, the display drops out without transferring to Ibooks as it used to do.

Tried resetting - No joy.
When I tried to open the attachment w/ "iBooks", the iPod switched to iBooks and an "Untitled" file showed on the bookshelf momentarily then the display dropped out and returned to the "Home" screen. No joy there.
Even tried opening w/ "Quick Look" - Again, no joy. Just a dropout and back to the "Home" screen.
Looks like I may have to do a total reset - Now iBooks loads w/ "Untitled" file displaying and then the display drops w/ a return to the home screen - In the process of total reset as I write this - Will update after I do a restore. - Its going to take at least 2 hours for reset/restore operation.

Restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities to restore OS X using OS X Recovery

IBooks, Mail, After Affects, Quick Time Player, Maps, App Store, won't open after Mavericks install/update

Just about everything on computer is slow as mollases after Mavericks Update. I am very angry because I can't use After Effects at all. It says it's not compatible with this new system. My mail application crashes as soon as I open it. Notification centre is non-existent now and Messages app won't open at all. Other apps such as iBooks, Mail, After Affects, Quick Time Player, Maps, App Store, and a few others won't open at all on this new system. I'm soo angry with Apple as I've never had so many problems with a new OS X. .. I would love to downgrade back to Mountain Lion OS. Anyone with helpful info, please respond. Thanks.

App.open not responding if called from inside onclick()

Hi all.
Working on a script for InDesign CC 2014 I found this problem : if I call app.open() from inside button.onclick() it stops and nothing happens. Since I'm a beginner with Javascript I'm probably doing something wrong, but I can not figure out where I'm wrong. If executed without onclick it works....
There is another method to achieve the same result?
As my project is still under construction, I place only the portion of code relating to the problem.
I hope someone can help me, I can not get out of this hitch.
Thanks in advance.
var book_info;
var w1 = new Window ("dialog", "TEST");
    w1.minimumSize.height = 50;
    w1.minimumSize.width = 50;
     var p1 = w1.add ("panel");
        sel_button = p1.add ("button", undefined, "Open a book");
     var g1 = w1.add ("group");
        g1.add("button", undefined, "Cancel");
        g1.add("button", undefined, "OK");
sel_button.onClick = function(){
    var theFile = File.openDialog ("Select the book file to open...");
    get_data(theFile);
        alert(book_info.filePath + "\r" + book_info.name);
    book_info.close();
w1.show();
function get_data(data) {
    app.open(data);
    book_info = app.activeBook;
        alert("INSIDE FUNCTION" + book_info.filePath + "\r" + book_info.name);
    return data;

Thanks,Loic.Aigon
A better solution than mine. I just used a variable set inside the select button and check for the value after the window close. You can use different variables for different buttons. The approach is quite similar. Reusing Loic.Aigon code:
var book_info;
var theFile;
var getData;
var w1 = new Window ("dialog", "TEST");
    w1.minimumSize.height = 50;
    w1.minimumSize.width = 50;
    var p1 = w1.add ("panel");
        sel_button = p1.add ("button", undefined, "Open a book");
    var g1 = w1.add ("group");
        g1.add("button", undefined, "Cancel");
        g1.add("button", undefined, "OK");
sel_button.onClick = function(){
    theFile = File.openDialog ("Select the book file to open...");
getData =1;
w1.close(1);
w1.show()
if ( getData ==1) {
if ( theFile ) {
get_data(theFile);
function get_data(data) {
    app.open(data);
    book_info = app.activeBook;
        alert("INSIDE FUNCTION" + book_info.filePath + "\r" + book_info.name);
    return data;

An app called AYI from Facebook is on my dashboard. I can not remove it. Overtime I open dashboard the app immediately opens safari and goes to the app. I don't have enough time to remove it in the normal manner..

OS X Yosemite on my iMac 27 inch Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3,
I have an app in my dashboard called AYI from Facebook.
I can not remove it, every-time I open dashboard to remove it the app opens safari immediately and I can not delete the widget.
I can not figure out how to manage this.

This procedure will reset your Dashboard configuration to the default.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
defaults delete com.apple.dashboard layer-gadgets && killall Dock
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Test.

Wrong URL from Fullfilment Center opens Browser in DPS App

Situation: While uploading Library an empty browser window opens when you return to application.
Could it be possible that a wrong/invalid/empty URL was sent back from the Fullfilment Center, that forces the app to open the Browser,
because the URL does not submit the neccessary order or information?
Appversion: v24
Apptype: Newsstand App with Subscription + Entitlement
Status: already available in Store and approved
Error: opens browser-window with no content ( you can't open the link in safari, pushing the arrow has no effect),
clicking done closes browser again, and it works normally. But this browser window should not open
Error appears when: Updating library when coming back to Application from another, or application has been inactive for a short period
Error does not appear when: you don't leave the app, no matter how often library uploads itself
Possible explanation: Fullfilment Center sent URL is invalid/wrong/empty or forces App to open that URL instead of opening it in the background
Who can help me with that?

FCE4.0.1 won't open when the App Icon is clicked. I've checked all Ext HD (verified prefs)- have trashed the FCE App and reinstalled from FCE discs, have downloaded the Plug In. I clicked on the FCE icon, the windows that says :registered to...and then l

FCE 4.0.1 won't open when I click the icon in the Dock or in the Applications icon of FCE. It had been working well but I had trouble when I trashed the reference Scratch disk to a project and I was asked to get it back. I checked all my drives through verify in Disk Utility and a couple needed repair - eventually were given the OK. I then Shut Down and rebooted, I then trashed the FCE App and reinstalled from the Install discs and , finally, I tried opening a FCE project. None of these caused the FCE App to open with Browser, Viewer, Canvas,. Time Line. All that happens is the the first FCE window, the one that says FCE registered to...and the other that says loading AE Effects, Video Effects does show but then nothing except my Desktop with it's various folders and files I also downloaded the Plug In Tom Wolsky suggested to a recent query.
All I can think of is to backup everything to HDs and take this iMac in for a service.It is only six months old - I reckon it will be poor driving by it's proud but unskilled driver!

Don't panic . . . . . yet!
You may not have trashed FCE properly.
Deleting the application icon is useless as there are a number of files hidden elsewhere which may be corrupt.
Download this free app to uninstall FCE completely and then reinstall it.
FCS Remover - Uninstall Final Cut Studio, Final Cut Pro, Motion, Compressor, Soundtrack Pro, Color, DVD Studio Pro, LiveType, Cinema Tools
I know it is called FCS Remover but it also works for FCE.

Hi,
Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.

Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

Can't open Preview/Calendar/App store/iBooks/Terminal/Mail after updated to Mavericks

After I updated to Mavericks, I can not open Preview, Dictionary, App Store, iBooks, Keynotes, Photobooth, Quicktime, Contact, Calender, etc...
Mail keeps crashing everything I opened it.
iTunes and Safari is still working. Can someone tell me what's happening and how to solve my problem? Thanks a lot!
BTW, I remeber this symptom happened after I used Cleanmymac.

Evi, I have the same problem. When I first updated to Mavericks, everything is OK, but I use Cleanmymac too, It is may be because of Cleanmymac, it cleaned about 1G files.
Now I can not open App Store, how can I download and reinstall Mavericks?

When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

I downlaoded Firefox 4 and now it won't let me open up on another screen..I have 2 screens side by side!!I used open up mulitable browsers and move them from screen to screen!Now i cant..Only opens to screen 1!!

Before i downloaded Firefox 4, i could open up mulitable screens and move them from screen to screen..I have one computer with 2 screens side by side..Say i open up your browser and then open up another browser session,I could then move that browser session to the other screen,,Great for researching and looking at different websites side by side!!Now i cant even shrink it and move that browser to the other side(other screen)..Before i could!!!

A brief and probably non-helpful answer: I know of no way to eliminate your large amount of duplicates other than by repetitive, tedious manual effort.
*There has got to be a simpler way.*
I hope you're right, but I don't think there is a simpler way.
BACKUP: It also appears that the only way I can back up the catalog is to shut down LR. Really?!
Yes, really

Just bought launch pro, I click on Recall, it goes to App Store and shows a blank white screen. Like I'm being blocked from this. All other supported apps open in App Store, just not Recall, please help

I just bought the Launch Pro app. Within the app it shows all supported apps, one of them is Recall, I click on Recall it goes to the App Store but doesn't open, it's just a blank white square, all the other apps that I have tried open fine. I've long suspected that my X is getting EVERY WORD that's spoken in my house and every email, web site that I go to...every everything. Can someone please help. I found smart mailboxes on my lap top that I didn't set up, the night that I discovered these my laptop crashed. Help help help.

You would get better response from the iTunes community forum.
Have a nice day!

My Mail app opens unprompted everytime i reboot or awake my macbook pro from sleep. This was not an issue until i shut down my laptop for the first time in a while 2 days ago. ANy ideas how to stop this?

I recently shut down my MacBook Pro for the first time in a long time. SInce then, everytime i reboot or awake my laptop from sleep, the Mail app opens unprompted causing my computer to slow down incredibly, and some apps to freeze. I have no idea how to stop this or why it even started doing this. Any ideas on how to get it to stop? Thanks!

I have this problem too with my Macbook Air. Mail opens automatically every time my laptop sleeps. I actually just asked about this in my own thread. However, it is not causing my apps to freeze.
