Please Help! Can't open Safari, I-Tunes after update download.

This happened after I ran a software update and downloaded the new I-tunes, Quicktime, and the latest security update.
I got an almost full disk message, but the downloads were completed ok. I was told to restart, but a bug hit at that point and I held down the power key to close down.
When I booted up again, all seemed normal, but
now when I click on the Safari and I-tune icons they blink, but then don't open.
Any ideas on what happened and how to link up the finder and these programs again? Is this a case for the famous Pram zap?
(Other, such as I-photo etc. are not affected. On the other hand Mac help, any html safari page, and software update are all inoperative.)
Many thanks for any suggestions!
John
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

The solution was to use the original
Tiger DVD to re-install the OS. I had let the disk space on the startup disk get too low, and a download corrupted some of the OS.
Thanks to all for the help!!!!!!

I can't open the "Keepsafe" App after update.

I can't open the "Keepsafe" App after update it to the latest version,
When i click on the app and after 20 second it's quickly goes back to the home screen,
I've tried reopening this App and restarting my iphone but still not working.
Please Help me to restore my data (more than 2,000 pics) in this App.
Best Regards

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Use iTune to update your apps.
Check for Updates (bottom right) in iTune. When download is completed, sync to iPad.

[Solved] Thunderbird can't open link in Firefox after update

Today there were updates for Thunderbird and Firefox (and a few other). After that Thunderbird can't open links with Firefox. If I click on a link nothing happen. I started Thunderbird from terminal, and when I clicked on a link I got this message:
** (thunderbird-bin:6130): WARNING **: Could not launch default application for URI: Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/firefox-7.0/firefox" (No such file or directory)
I checked /usr/lib and the folder for Firefox was directly under it, no folder "firefox-version" in between. I guess one must change the path somewhere for Thunderbird to find Firefox. Where to change that? I have looked both in the menus in Thunderbird, and in the Thunderbird folders in my home and in /usr/lib, but I don't see the path to Firefox anywhere.

Unfortunately I have no idea what needs fixing. Have you tried to reboot?

HELP! - Cannot open old iPhoto library after updating from Tiger to Lion

I changed my Mac and now I am using Lion on MacBook Pro.
I am trying to open the iPhoto library that I used to have on my old PowerBook G4 with Tiger, but it does not work.
When I open the library, iPhoto says that the library needs to be updated and asking OK to continue. I press OK to continue and iPhoto starts to work though after hours (I tried to leave the mac to work for three days) nothing happens!
The library is very big, 39 GB!
Any help?

NowApple:
Sounds like a damaged database.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I can´t open files with number after update, last week.

Last week I upgraded Mavericks, Pages, Keynote and Numbers .. that's OK, then I could not open these programs. When I try, a window appears: "To open this spreadsheet must use a later version of Numbers. You can download the latest version of Numbers from the Mac App Store.".
Access the App's Store and says application already installed. What I can do?

Juan,
When you upgraded to MAvericks and installed the latest iWork programs. the installed moved the previous version of the iWork programs to the folder "/Applications/iWork '09"
You are trying to open a numbers file in the new format with the previous version of Numbers. The main thing to to be aware of what version you are running:
Numbers:
2.3 3.0
The previous version (2.3) is on the left and the new version (3.0) is on the right.
The old version cannot open numbers files that are from version 3.0

Can't open raw files acr2 after update to cs5

Im running a 64 bit windows 7..before the update to cs5, running a cs4 and lr 2.6 with plugin ver 5.6, when i updated to cs5 and 2.7 for the LR, i cant open a cr2 files only jpeg and photoshop files and also im getting error on LR error (LR has stop working) . i tried the to convert to 5.7 dng but still have no luck. I tried everything buy removing the .lr8 files, purge and still no luck...I have a 5D and Mark 2n camera, and Nvidia GTX 275 with dual monitor..

ACR work in CS4 before the update and now cant even access the ACR in CS4 when i update to CS5, i checked the camera raw plugin both CS4 and CS5 and 1 each plugin installed ( cs4 ver 5.6 for CS4 and ver 6 for CS5)...
Something is screwed up the the ACR folder. Since CS4 and CS5 should act as seperate programs, with differenct ACR versions, one should not affect the other.
With 32 bit and 64 bit versions you have 2 programs and therefore 2 locations for the ACR files. In CS3 the location should be program files/COMMON FILES/Adobe/Plug ins/CS3/ file formats/camera raw.8bi
Should be something similar for CS4 and CS5. Believe 32 bit version is in X86 directiory.

TS1424 I can't open the iTune store after I updated my iphone to iOS 7.

Hi there, could someone help me here please - I can't open the iTune store after I updated my iphone 4 to iOS 7. The problem occurred about 5 days later after the upgrade. There are no error messages. As I tap on the icon it opens just for a fraction of a moment and then goes off and back to the main screen. Other apps are working just fine. I tried following the troubleshooting steps as suggested by apple support, but that didn't help unfortunately...
Thank you

I can't open safari in my ipad 2, can someone please help me?

I can't open safari in my ipad 2, can someone please help me how to solve this problem?

If you have iOS6: Double click your home button. The app icons will line up on the bottom of the screen. Scroll sideways if needed to see the mail app. Hold your finger down on it until they all start to wiggle. Tap on the red circle to close the app. Single tap the home button to exit the mode.
If you have iOS7, double click your home button. You'll see the app icons and a preview window for the app. Scroll sideways if needed to access the mail app. Flick the preview window up and off the screen. Single tap the home button or tap on the home page preview to exit the mode
See if Safari will open after that.

If you can't open a particular ibook then try deleting it from the bookshelf via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf, and (assuming that it's still in your country's store) redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app (or if you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes library sync it back from there).

Help since installing latest software updates I now can't open safari????

Hi Stewartirl,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Are you only having issues opening Safari? Are you able to connect to the internet with other Browsers or using Mail?
The article below is a good starting point for troubleshooting. I'd start by plugging in an ethernet cable and restarting the computer. If the wired (LAN) connection works, then unplug the ethernet cable and continue troubleshooting the wireless connection.

I can't open my purchased apps after sync to i tunes, help anyone?

i can't open my purchased apps after sync to i tunes, help anyone?

I have found a solution for my very special case with very same symptoms. I gave my iPhone 3GS to my son, created for him his own iCloud account (for backup and contact isolation) but used my App Store account, so that we pay only once for all those 190 applications. However, I was only able to install applications from my Mac, but not from "Purchased Apps", which showed blank screen or crashed.
Now I have tried to switch language to English (just for the case, probably was not necessary) and created another iCloud account (same Apple ID as I use for App Store) - I have switched only reminders on.
Now I'm able to see purchased apps, and I can install them. I have even changed the language back to Czech and then disabled reminders for that secondary iCloud account and finally deleted this account altogether. Still I can see purchased apps.
Between the steps that I did I have always closed the AppStore application from the task bar. Lets hope, it will survive restart. I hope the right Apple ID is now somewhere in the Keychain and marked for iCloud usage.

Please Help! Can't open Safari, I-Tunes after update download.
