Photo Boot doesn't want to open up, 10.4.11, bounces once and then closes.

This error is what shows up in the Console after I try to open Photo Boot. The program itself just bounces once and then nothing happens (it crashes).
dyld: Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/ScriptingBridge.framework/Versions/A/ScriptingBridge
Referenced from: /Applications/Photo Booth.app/Contents/MacOS/Photo Booth
Reason: image not found
This happens in two iMac Intel Core Duo, with Tiger 10.4.11.

Hi Adrian
the error literally means what it says -part of photobooth is trying to open a file /System/Library/Frameworks/ScriptingBridge.framework/Versions/A/ScriptingBridge but it can't & clearly photobooth won't run without it.
you can look in /System/Library/Frameworks/ScriptingBridge.framework/Versions/A/ with Finder to confirm that the file is missing; sometimes just one file disappears like that.
However, perhaps ignore the above, since a quick search for where you'd find the scriptingbridge framework to download or reinstall from disk suggests that it was never in Tiger at all - and that you might be running Photobooth 2 ( a Leopard app ). do a get info on Photobooth via Finder & see what version it says... or check the full crash report.

  • My ITunes wont open. It bounces once and then stops.

    It started when I tried to download the new ITunes. I had read that it would fix when i updated my whole computer. Now when I try to run updates, i hit update and it immediately says that my computer needs to restart to apply the updates. I restart and nothing has happened.

  • Appleworks bounces once and doesn't open

    I can't seem to get Appleworks to open- if I click on the icon or go to applications and click it there, it bounces once and then stops. It does not open. Any thoughts? It seems to be a different problem than recent "won't open" subjects. I have not changed it in any way or reloaded, etc.
    I'm using version 6.2.9 on my ibook G4. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Scott,
    You are having a problem with a completely different program, so your problem is not the same. Other than my suggestions to purplesally to use Disk Utility to repair permissions & to create a new Dock icon for AppleWorks, the solutions are unlikely to assist with a problem with Mail. Since we never heard back again from purplesally, we don't even know if those suggestions worked.
    When looking for solutions to a problem to a specific program, the best place to start is a forum for that program or your operating system. For you I suggest the Printing & Faxing forum in the Category: Mac OS X v10.3 & earlier & then choosing the Mail & Address Book forum or the Using OS X forum.
    However, some basic OS X troubleshooting/maintenance steps might help you. So, the first thing I suggest is repairing permissions using Disk Utility. Then, unless you leave your Mac on 24/7 & not asleep, run a utility to run the UNIX cron routines & clean caches. Two free ones are YASU & OnyX.
    Also, make sure your hard drive isn't too full. It depends on how you use your computer, but for most normal users a minimum of 5 gigs free space at all times after installation is recommended. Power users may need more.
    If this still doesn't work, repairing your hard drive with Disk Utility may help. Start up your Mac from the first Panther instal disk. Then, instead of running the installer, go to the Installer menu & choose Disk Utility. Select your hard drive in the left-hand panel & click Repair Disk. When it is done, quit Disk Utility then quit Installer & restart your Mac.

  • My upgrade to Photoshop Elements 12 was deleted by accident. The 2nd download doesn't want to open?

    In Aug I upgraded to Photoshop Elements 12. It worked fine but this week someone worked on my PC and deleted it by accident. Now I downloaded it again but it doesn't want to open?

    If your program is Photoshop Elements 12, you have posted in the wrong forum. Somehow you thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum.
    Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

    While you do that something to think about....putting on my Photoshop Elements 12 hat for the moment...
    If you have Photoshop Elements 12 and are in its Elements Organizer 12 and you want to edit of of the Elements Organizer 12 photos in the Photoshop Elements 12 Editor, I do not
    find any right clicks in that maneuver. Have you tried...
    1. Select the Elements Organizer 12 thumbnail for the photo
    2. Look to the bottom of the workspace to where it shows an Editor button. Click on the tiny triangle to the right of the work Editor in the button.
    You should then get a pop up menu with choices of External Editor, Photoshop, Video Editor. click Photoshop. Does that work to get
    you into the Photoshop Elements 12 Editor workspace to edit that photo?

  • My iphoto froze...doesn't want to open. What do i do?

    My iphoto froze...doesn't want to open. What can i do?

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

    Zabanya,
    One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the (PDF contents, if any, of the) corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way.
    Here are some websites where you can see whether it can rescue the actual file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,

    As far as I remember, the first one is for Win and the second one is for Mac, while the third one should be for both.

    Try the usual steps: restart, reset, restore.

    If restoring using a backup doesn't help, try restoring the iPhone to factory settings and try for a while with just the Apple-included apps, to make sure it's not an issue with a third-party app. If it still has problems, it may have a hardware problem and will need to be sent to Apple.

  • ISight Bounces Once and Doesn't Open

    Let me start off by saying, I bought this computer originally with OS X Tiger, then upgraded to Leopard. Upon finding out that my Java editor no longer worked (Since I'm a student I have to use the recommended software -- Dr. Java), along with may other problems that occured, I decided to downgrade back to Tiger. I did "Archive and Install" on both occasions.
    Now, ever since I downgraded back to Tiger, Photo Booth has never worked. Note that I do have Iris, and iSight itself works, just not PhotoBooth. It just bounces once and stops.I have no idea what might be causing this, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I hope this is the right forum, as PhotoBooth is connected with iSight.
    Thanks,
    A new mac user.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions, Programinator
    Check to see whether your Dock's iCon might be the problem.
    Click and hold on your Dock's Photo Booth iCon. When the contextual menu opens, choose "Remove from Dock". (Or you can just drag the iCon off the Dock and drop it on your desktop.)
    Then put a new Photo Booth iCon in your dock. (Open your applications folder and drag and drop that Photo Booth iCon to your dock. The original will stay in your Applications folder.)
    Does it work right with the new iCon in the Dock?

  • I am having to run v3.5.10 because even now with latest 3.6 that version - every 30 seconds or so I hear a process open and then close. Can't track it down even in task manager - too brief but it's insistent! So stuck having to use 3.5

    I have to use V3.5.10 despite wanting to run 3.6 (just updated to 3.6.6 too). However when I run 3.6 I hear thru my sounds set up a process open briefly and then close every 30 seconds or so - it's very regular and insistent and I'd like to know what it is and why. It's too brief to spot in Task manager processes listing. This did happen once under 3.5 I seem to recall but was cured when it upgraded.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Pretty much soon after I first applied and ran 3.6

    My Win sounds give me a sound each time an app or process opens and another when it closes - thus I know from that any time something happens.
    I have 3.6.6 on as well as 3.5.10 - so can run either. But running .3.6.6 despite being update still has this odd process open and close every half minute.

  • Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and the website won't open.

    Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and I'll have to re open the tab and hope that doesn't happen again. Sometimes this happens again and again. Most of the times if I just open the link in a new tab and don't switch to it, this won't happen. But as I switch too the tab, the text would disappear and the link wouldn't open.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How can i open the directory/​folder and read all the files inside it in order and then close it?

    How can i open the directory/folder and read all the files inside it in order and then close it? any example would be nice.
    thanks

    In the File I/O>>Advanced File Functions Palette is a function named "List directory". This function will give you two arrays. One contains the names of all subdirectories the other the names of all files. If you want to sort them by name use the array sort function. If you want to sort them by another attribute use the File/Directory Info function to get more data. Use a cluster which contains the attribut to sort and the original index of the name. Then sort this array.

  • Dock problem: Apps won't open, they bounce once and don't open.

    hi,
    my ex-girlfriend has had problems with opening up some of her programs (Mail, Safari, iChat, iTunes, Msn-Messenger, Skype) on the dock. They bounce on the dock once and then don't open at all. She said that it just happened after a recent update (17/9/08).
    I've been trying Disk Utility and this comes up with:
    +_First Aid Failed_.+
    +Disk Utility stopped verifying 'Macintosh HD' because the following error was encountered:+
    +The underlying task reported failure on exit+
    Underneath it says: 1 HFS volume checked, Volume needs repair.
    I have also used Disk Warrior and that also came up with the same error that this person got (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1459800&tstart=4).
    I've even tried using fsck but that wasn't successful. I think I might need to work from disk utility from the start-up disks but was wodnering would I ahve to first back-up all the stuff that she has on her laptop at the moment???

    I compiled what I could find on the application bouncing once problem.
    I made it for Safari but much of it may apply to other Applications.
    - Create a new user account on your machine.
    - Log in under that new user account.
    - Try to launch Safari.
    If Safari launches under the new user account,
    Then it's likely a preference file or some Safari add-on (e.g. "Application Enhancers" PithHelmet or Saft) running under the original account that's preventing it from launching. Remove them, if possible and clear the cache.
    If Safari does not start under the new user account the same way it doesn't under your original account,
    Deletion and reinstallation will be needed:
    1) Back up your bookmarks to a safe location. Your Safari bookmarks are in Your Home/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist. Copy the Bookmarks.plish file to a flash drive, or somewhere safe.
    2) Download Safari from http://www.apple.com/safari/download/ and save it where you saved your bookmarks backup.
    3) Download an application deletion software, such as AppCleaner or AppZapper. A simple Google search will provide you with download locations.
    4) Once you have installed the application deletion software, run it to delete Safari. The application should find and delete all files related to your Safari install. This is why it is important to save your safari download package and your bookmarks backup to a flash drive off of your system. If you did not do this, make sure to uncheck these files from the deletion list.
    5) Restart your computer and install Safari once again. Once you have installed it, you should copy your bookmarks file to the new Safari's location. It will be located at "Your Home/Library/Safari/". If their is already a Bookmarks.plist in the Safari folder, then replace it with the backup.
    If deletion and reinstallation doesn't help,
    Perform networking diagnostics.

  • When uploading photos from my PC to IPad, it gets to the very last stage and then just stops synching.  I've tried multiple times and even from scratch, but same unsuccessful result.  Very frustrating and not sure what I'm doing wrong.

    When synching my photo library (selected folders) to my IPad, it reaches the last (6th) step and then I see the folders appear on my IPad for a brief moment, but then the synch stops and the photos failed to upload.  What's the deal?  After 6 attempts, I give up.  THis should not be that difficult and I've spent way too much time trying to figure this out.  Makes me want to throw out my 1st generation IPad and go with another tablet manufacturer.  Anyone who has experiened this or knows how to remedy would appreciate hearing from you.
    Tx

    Never have this problem. That's just weird. Maybe there's something wrong with one of the photos?
    Try viewing those photos with quicktime first?

    When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works!  I have thought about deleting the app from my phone and then reloading it again but I worry that it will delete all my calendar info???  Any suggestions?

    To reset, press and hold the Home and power buttons until the silver apple appears.
    I would delete the app, reset the phone and then download the app again. Your calendar information should be stored on the phone as Week Cal uses the Calendar app information.
    Best of luck.
