QuickTime fails to launch: "Unable to load nib file"

QuickTime has decided today that it will no longer launch. When I look at the message generated in Console it says:
"QuickTime Player[300] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting"
This has been happening since I updated my copy of Fetch. I have tried reinstalling QuickTime but it hasn't helped.
I am running QuickTime Pro 7.1.6 with DivX and Flip4Mac, both of which were installed some time ago and everything has been running fine until this morning.
Any ideas what I should do next?
Thanks.

Did you repair permissions & restart after the
update?
I tried repairing the permissions and QuickTime still failed to launch; however, I didn't think to restart the machine. But then I fired up TechTool and it found problems with the volume structure, repaired it, and all is good now. So I'm not sure if TechTool fixed the problem or if it was eventually restarting after repairing the permissions.

I've run the repair permissions utility, within the disk utility several times on the volume.
I've run the verify disk utility on the volume - no problems reported.
No other application issues that I've noticed; only quicktime is broken.
Not sure what to do next.   If it gave me a clue about which "nib" file it was after I could go check it.

Mail Unable to load nib file: MailViewer

Mail decided not to work. looking at the console I get:
Mail Unable to load nib file: MailViewer, exiting
I read somewhere that it might have gotten corrupted, and that therefore I need to reinstall. Is there an easy way to install just Mail in its latest version and not go through (likely outdated) pkg installers? Even better, any other way of solving this problem?
Many thanks in advance.
Ivan

I would say you have a serious issue with your hard drive. Consider doing a format with zero all data options enabled, and see if it pass. You might also consider buying some advanced disk repair utility to test (and repair ?) the drive (TechTool, DiskWarrior or Drive 10).
Is there an (windows burnable) image "updated rescue disk"?
No, the restore disk comes with each machine and is to keep in safe place.
Use it to reinstall your system and apply the Mac OS Update via Software Update or using the same combo update.

Anyone else having problems getting 4.5 files to open in 2008? I create a nice simple new xlf with a simple xls behind it and a just a grid component in 4.5, then try open the file in 2008 and i get... Crystal Xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or have features that cannot be supported by this version of Crystal Xcelsius.im on the following versions...Version 4.5Application Version 4.2.4.3File Version 1.1.0.2Version 2008Application Version 5.0.0.99Build Number 12,0,0,121 I'm hoping that this is just a version issue with what was on ESD... the help file seem to suggest upgrade is simple so would but good to here of folks having sucess - and if so what versions your on thanks!jez.

well i hope thats the case... but its a bit strange that neither the beta versions i tested or this ESD version (its not very clear as to if its pre-release - nothing on the splashscreen/about to indicate its not the full thing) can open 4.5 files... suggests that the beta did not cover backward compatability which is a bit concerning :(hopefully im just missing something simple!from the help file in the '08 version i have here...Xcelsius supports the ability to import a visualization created
with Xcelsius 4.5. This import ability lets Xcelsius 4.5 customers upgrade their
existing visualizations to take advantage of the new features of Xcelsius 2008.
Backup your current XLF, JPEG, and external SWF files before upgrading your
visualization.
Note: Xcelsius 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 files cannot be
imported into Xcelsius 2008. To use these files in Xcelsius 2008 you must first
import them into Xcelsius 4.5, then import the files into Xcelsius 2008.

Hi,
Which version of xcelsius you are using now !
The file which you are trying to open may be created in higher version of xcelsius
So upgrade to latest version and try.
Before opening xcelsius check if EXcel.exe is running from taskmanager -->processes
if that is runnning end the process.

Unable to load multiple files to Essbase using MaxL and wildcards

I have multiple data files to load:
Files:
Filename.txt
Filename_1.txt
Filename_2.txt
According to the following link, Essbase is able to load multiple files to BSO databases via MaxL by using wildcards:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_tech_ref/frameset.htm?launch.html
However, when I try to run the following I receive the following error:
MaxL:
import database MyApp.DB data from server text data_file "../../MyApp/Filename*.txt" using server rules_file "L_MyRule" on error append to "\\Server\Folder\L_MyRule.err";
Error:
ERROR - 1003027 - Unable to open file [DB01/oracleEPM/user_projects/epmsystem2/EssbaseServer/essbaseserver1/app/MyApp/DB/../../Filename*.txt].
ERROR - 1241101 - Unexpected Essbase error 1003027.
I can run the following fine without any problem, but this only deals with the first of several files, and I’d rather not hard-code multiple files since the number might vary in the future:
MaxL:
import database MyApp.DB data from server text data_file "../../MyApp/Filename.txt" using server rules_file "L_MyRule" on error append to "\\Server\Folder\L_MyRule.err";
Any ideas? And how about ASO databases?

System wide failure to load .nib files

Hi everyone,
I've recently stumbled across a problem. Several of OS X bundled applications are no longer functioning due to uncaught exceptions in the application.
1) Mail.app throws an exception and terminates when trying to open an e-mail message:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: '-[NSViewController loadView] could not load the "MessageView" nib.'
2) Stickies.app (Sticky notes) generates a log record (seen in the console app) when attempting to show a sticky note:
From the console log:
-[NSWindowController loadWindow]: failed to load window nib file 'StickiesDocument'.
But the application is not getting terminated.
3) Preview.app has stopped working, but is not generating any log records or uncaught exceptions.
4) Terminal.app generates a log record when attempting to open a terminal window at startup:
From the console log:
-[TTWindowController loadWindow]: failed to load window nib file '(null)'.
There might be other apps that could possibly have the same issue
Having provided the background of the issue my question therefore is: What might be possible solutions to this? (Except reinstalling OS X which is the last (and only) option on my list)
Thanks in advance!
With regards,
Valentine

Unfortunately, there is no where to download Apple's applications without reinstalling.
Do a backup. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions. Then reinstall the OS.

Problems loading nib files after class is split into a static library.

I've recently split a project so that the common re-usable controls are in their own class library. My original application project now references these using a cross project reference.
However, since I have split the projects up, my original project crashes when it loads main.xib because it cannot find one of the custom classes which is defined in the library project.
When I first split up the projects, I noticed that there were problems with the nib files not being able to find the IB outlets of the custom classes, but I managed to get around these by going importing the relevant library class files manually (File > Read Class Files…).
I have made sure that all of the nib files compile without warning, so as far as I can tell, Interface Builder is able to read the necessary class headers, but when I try to run the app, it crashes saying that there is an unknown class in the Interface Builder file and that the class is not coding compliant.
Are there any steps I've missed or advice on how to troubleshoot this?

I did a bit of digging. The reason why this wasn't working is because the class in question was referenced by the nib files, but not in code. Therefore, while the code compiled and there were no warnings with the nib files, the linker was not linking the classes because no code used them directly.
This can be fixed by going to the Project Settings, and on the Build tab, underneath the Linking heading, adding -ObjC to the Other Linker Flags section.
