Programs will not launch.
Crossover and mulab are two programs that will not launch on moutain lion. Anybody know why? I allow programs for anywhwere, so it´s not that.
Launch the Console 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 Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Recently accepted an itunes update and now the program will not launch or open on my computer
I recently accepted an itunes update on my computer - now the application will not launch or open on my computer. any ideas or help?
A few details would help here. What kind of computer? What operating system is it running? What version of iTunes was running previously? Was there an error during installation? What actually happens when you try to launch iTunes now?
Let us know we will keep working with you.
Best of luck. -
After downloading updates, the program will not launch
When Firefox does an update automatically, the program stops launching altogether. I have had to do a complete reinstall and that worked until the automatic update happened again tonight.

Mail will not launch after upgrade to Leopard
I just installed the Leopard OS. My previous OS had been Tiger 10.4.10 and had been recently updated. Now, the Mail program will not launch. When I click the Mail icon, the little blue ball under the icon flashes a few times, then stops. A window opens to say that Mail has unexpectedly quit and asks if I want to send a report to Apple. I sent the report, but this of course does not help me to access my e-mail. Any ideas?
Exact same problem, resolved thus just now:
Finder, Search for Mail.app. Open the version 3.0 (Quick Look from Finder/File will help here...) and you'll be prompted to upgrade your mail stuff; from there, you're happy.
My guess is that the Sidebar didn't upgrade correctly. Mine evidently still references v2.1 of Mail.
On to that problem next... -
I have used Captivate once, on a trial basis, some many months ago. At the time I purchased the subscription (valid still) and worked with it a few times. I have only returned to it recently and the program will not launch. The icon appears in my Mac system tray, the small icon bounces as if it is starting, and then it disappears. I reinstalled a moment ago, and when the install said "Launch now" again the same thing happened.
Don't know how to get this to launch.Turns out that there is a patch for this and it is not just me. Basically, it has to do with OS 10.9.
I have the same issue with FlashCC now, but there is no simple patch. Adobe has provided me a link to some instructions that I will try
So Captivate is now launching! -
ITunes will not launch or upgrade
When I attempt to launch iTunes, I get an error message of "Problem with Shortcut: This action is only valid for products that are currently installed." The program will not launch from the icon, from the start menu or when I connect my iPhone.
I also cannot complete an upgrade of iTunes, as it hangs on the install feature. It will not replace previous iTunes.msi files and will not let me redirect it to a new location.
Help please!Download the Windows Install Clean-up.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
Then go to the list of Programs on your computer and find the Windows Install Cleanup. It will be listed at the end of the list of programs starting with "Windows". Open it and remove the following programs form the list by using the Ctrl tab on your computer to highlight these programs (If there are more than 1 version listed, remove all versions): iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bon Jour, and Apple Application Support. Remove these programs. After these programs are removed, go to iTunes website and download the new version of iTunes. You do not need to restart your computer. This worked like a charm for me! -
Apple programs, Help, Mail, iTunes, Safari, Quicktime will not launch.
Recently we downloaded some upgrades from Apple and now Help, Mail, iTunes, Safari and Quicktime will not launch. The icon dances on the dock, and the operating system records the program as having opened, but the program does not come up and the icon menu on the dock still displays open rather than quit. I have tried re-installing the programs to no avail.
"Repair disk was unable to repair these"
Any one of the following may fix the directory damage:
DiskWarrior
Highly recommended for *directory damage* repairs.
TechTool Pro
Multi-functional utility.
Drive Genius Multi-functional utility.
You will need to make your own decision on which to purchase. Read up on them on their websites because each does something a little different.
You must use the versions that are compatible w/your OS system & keep the utilities updated to avoid damaging/harming/trashing your system. -
Suddenly all of my Office-programs have stopped working and will not launch on my MacBook. They were all already installed when I bought the computer. Could anyone give an amateur from Norway a hint of what may cause the problem? (And I can not find the installation-disc for the Office Programs...Super!)
Have you contacted Microsoft support - http://www.microsoft.com/mac/support ?

BB Desktop Software will not launch
PC, running Windows XP - Upgraded to new BB Desktop Software. Was working for about a month. Now, Will NOT launch - getting Windows Error
Error Signature:
EventType : clr20r3 P1 : rim.desktop.exe P2 : 6.0.1.18 P3 : 4cfdab9c
P4 : microsoft.practices.composite P5 : 2.0.1.0 P6 : 4cfdaa3a
P7 : 12b P8 : 50 P9 : sclhiaanmqhkf4zdfpvvwejkphnm1zuj
I re-connected to BB and loaded the "fix" versus the fuill version and still cannot load.
From the Windows Control Panel - Removed the BB Desktop Software and re-booted the PC. Re-Loaded the full Desktop Software from the BB website. Still NOTHING - except for the Windows errror.
Dead in the water. Cannot launch the BB Software to connect and synch BB Storm! iPhone on Verizon is looking better and better. Mid-February is NOT coming soon enough.

OK Instead of dueling each other, the issue is my Problem. If you want to 'duel', please take it off-line.
No one is "dueling" , we are tying to fix your problem.
Re-stating my Problem:
1. I had loaded BB DM6 on a Windows XP PC about 3 months ago with no problems. In fact, it linked with all aspects of Outlook that I needed (Calendar, Task and Contacts). Yeah!! This did not happen with the 'original' BB DM that I loaded January 2009 when I bought the BB Storm from Verizon, but I lived with this short coming of BB. Built my calendar and contacts directly into the BB Storm.
So the original installation of the desktop manager software loaded in January 2009 did not correctly function with Outlook.
2. OK. So something happened last week and the BB DM6 will not launch without getting the error message that I put in my 1st Posting of this Problem.
"So something happened". We can only go on your description of the problem. If you have no idea what happened i couldn't possibly know. The only "guess" would be an there was an auto update to existing software or you have added software.
3. I went to BB and loaded the "Fix" for PC. Also, this did not Launch BB DM6.
4. Unloaded the BB DM6 with the Windows XP Control Panel "Remove Program". Re-Booted the PC. Then, went to BB and reloaded the BB DM6. Same error message and no Launch.
Try using the repair/modify option in the Remove Program function on the DM installation currently loaded on the PC.
5. I am far from the "Techie" that the respondants to this Problem are!! I am a SIMPLE End User of this BB Storm having mucho problems ... all of a sudden ... last week after using BB DM6 without the problems.
6. What can a SIMPLE, non-techie End User do? From the Respondants Postings .. I am reading about Loading Roxio for BB DM from the Roxio website? Also, reading about that the Unload from the Windows XP Control Panel, Remove Programs, is incomplete for the removal of the BB DM6. I am being directed to removing 'hidden' files/keys as directed in a BB Problem Solving Posting for the CLEAN Removal of BB DM6--- which is surely not written for the SIMPLE, non-techie End User!!
The error indicates a problem with some Roxio software. If you were using DM with Media manager prior Roxio was a part of that software, or you are running Roxio software.The Roxio information I gave you was to remove Roxio drivers not load Roxio software.
In your description of the January 2009 install there were problems with the install that were never correctly addressed. What we are suggesting is to remove all traces of the Various installation of desktop manager which includes editing the registry. That is why using Windows remove programs is not sufficient.
Once complete you will be installing a fresh copy of DM on your system, this will ensure that the DM software can correctly integrate wit both Windows and MS Outlook
The install procedure is SUGGESTED as the best resolution to your problem. Whether you run it or not is your decision.
7. In simple non-Techie language for this SIMPLE, non-techie End User ... what can I do to fix the problem and be able to launch BB DM6 from my Windows XP PC??
This is as plain "non-techie" as I can write it.
Thanks,

itunes will not open on my computer the icon on my desktop has changed to a white folder and it is still listed in start programmes but will not launch i am concerned about losing all my downloadsYou music etc should not be affected by problems with the iTunes program, nevertheless it is always a good idea to backup your data.
You haven't said if there was any error message when you tried to start iTunes. If there was one please give it in full.
Also check to see if QuickTime works, iTunes can not work without it. If QuickTime doesn't work, it has to be fixed before worrying about iTunes.
Then restart your PC and open your Task manger and select the Processes tab.
Try to start iTunes, does iTunes.exe appear on the processes tab? If so does it disappear again or remain although the programs does not open? -

Itunes will not launch on Windows Vista no error code
Itunes will not launch on my computer. I have windows vista. I have uninstalled and downloaded itunes repeatedly. I have also tried all of the troubleshooting tips available on the apple support site. But none of them worked. Quicktimes works fine. It is just itunes. I even opened up task manager to check the processes and itunes appears for about a second in the processes tab then just disappears. I have no idea what to do i have an iphone 3gs and havent updated it for a few months now and cannot sync my iphone without itunes. I Have kaspersky internet protection but i doubt thats the problem because itunes was working fine until i updated it.PLEASE HELPPPPPP!
Presumably the configuration fails to complete, so every time you start iTunes it has another go.
As iTunes works normally when you plug in your iPod, you should be able to work round this by creating a new iTunes short cut.
Go to Program Files\iTunes and right click on iTunes.exe. Select: Send to>>Desktop(create shortcut). If you are lucky you will be able to open iTunes using this short cut.
However this work around does not fix the underlying problem that WIndows fails to complete configuring iTunes.
