Safari 2.0.3 won't launch from Mail

Since the new security update yesterday for OS X4.5, my Safari browser 2.0.3 won't launch from the Mail e-mail program.
What do I do now? It was working perfectly before the update.
Kathy : (

I've had the same problem using numerous apps and on different Macs since updating to 10.4.5. Today, using the "check for updates" in Quicken 2006, something corrupted Safari completely and it won't launch at all - double click merely shows the icon in the Dock for a second before it quits. I did all the usual stuff: deleted the cache, cookies, etc. Finally trashed the app but now I can't figure out how to reinstall it alone...

  • Applications won't launch from dock

    I have recently had to re install tiger and was not able to use archive function so had to erase.
    Most files etc were OK and was able to shift stuff around between the macs hard drive and an external storage device.
    Lost of stuff got duplicated and I've been trying to sort out the mess!
    I'm pretty well there now but have one last weird problem.
    I can't launch the Word or Excell apps from the dock.
    I've deleted and added them and also re installed the Office software but it still won't work.
    I can open any of my Word or Excell files from the docs folder but the programme won't launch from the dock
    Any ideas?

    What happens if you go to office preferences (from your pulldown menu with Word or Excel open) >> general >> "show project gallery at startup" and deselect that item?
    It's also possible that it could be a font that Office does not care for. Try dragging ~(yourhome)/library/fonts to the desktop and logging out and back in or restarting.

  • I installed the latest Security and Safari update.  Now Safari crashes and Chrome won't launch at all.  Can I revert to the software state before the newest updates?

    After installing the latest security and Safari updates (18 Sept 2013), Safari crashes and Chrome won't launch at all.  Can I revert to a software state before this latest install?

    The problems are caused by third party input managers/enhancers that have not yet been updated by their developers to comply with the standards used by Safari 3.2.1. and/or Safari 4.
    In your case these are:
    x7e3000 - 0x7e3fff com.aladdinsys.mmenabler 7.1.0 (99) /Library/InputManagers/MagicMenuEnabler/MagicMenuEnabler.bundle/Contents/MacOS/ MagicMenuEnabler
    0x7e7000 - 0x7e7fff com.yazsoft.SDEnhancer ??? (1.0) /Users/peterdignam/Library/InputManagers/SpeedDownload Enhancer/SpeedDownloadEnhancer.bundle/Contents/MacOS/SpeedDownloadEnhancer
    0x254a000 - 0x254dfff com.yazsoft.SDSafariBundle ??? (1.0) /Users/peterdignam/Library/InputManagers/SpeedDownload Enhancer/SpeedDownloadEnhancer.bundle/Contents/Resources/SDSafariBundle.bundle/ Contents/MacOS/SDSafariBundle
    You fill find them in one or either of these folders:
    Home/Library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/Library/Application Support
    although the exact location is indicated in your crash report as quoted above - look under 'Binary Images'.
    Close Safari and delete them, then restart Safari and it should be working normally.
    Check with the developers of the plug-ins in question for updates that are Safari 4 compliant.

  • Safari 5.0.3 won't launch (dreaded pinwheel)

    MBP 15" OS 10.5.8
    Installed Safari 5.0.3; doubled clicked and app won't launch: pinwheel spins for 1/2 hr. until force quit. Used Appcleaner to uninstall Safari, ran Disk Utility-> repair permissions. Re installed Safari: same result. Tried going to Library->Input Manager folder; that folder does not exist. Using Firefox for now but would like to resume Safari. Any help (in basic terms) appreciated.

    I assume that it is not a plugin problem?
    seems not, certainly.
    It's a pain it not showing in AM - I can only suggest double-checking the other folders mentioned in http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3230
    /Library/Input Methods/
    /Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/ScriptingAdditions
    and also LaunchAgents & LaunchDaemons & StartupItems from the same HD/Library/
    Let's try Safe mode too - restart the mac holding down the Shift key. Try safari, then reboot normally to return to normal mode.
    At this rate it'll be quicker to get you back on 5.0.2 (was it?) & then at least it'll show in AM so we can see what's what.

  • Safari 3.1 - Youtube won't launch

    I upgraded last night and noticed that YouTube videos won't launch in Safari. They would launch and run properly in Firefox. I removed "Input Managers", and that improved things, but unless I launch Firefox and start a Youtube video in Firefox, the video won't start in Safari 3.1. Ideas, suggestions?

    Hi jdjohnny and welcome to the forums!
    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, 3.1, QT 7.3 or 7.4 and OS 10.4.11. (If you are running Leopard, ensure that all plug-ins have been updated for OS 10.5.2, but please see my footnote).
    Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.11 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
    The new RealPlayer Plus (v.11) is still in beta and therefore free, but works well on Tiger. It includes a download function, and you can get that here:
    http://uk.real.com/player/mac/
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
    Adobe FlashPlayer should first be uninstalled using the appropriate uninstaller available here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2 and then the latest version obtained from here: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash and installed.
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS, but please see my footnote if you are running Leopard.)
    In earlier versions than QT 7.1.3 in Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11 or Leopard, that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates up to and including 2008-002. (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back.
    FOOTNOTE
    If you are running Leopard:
    Some users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266&sliceId=1

  • TS4412 Aperture 3.4.3 simply won't launch from a fresh install

    So, I just purchased Aperture from the App Store, and it won't launch.
    I tried the advice here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4412
    To no avail. Since the app hasn't launched, there is no preference file to delete.
    The only other variables, of course, would be my hardware and OS, but all of that is up to date.

    Do you have Final Cut installed? The crash dump has all the signs of the classic Final Cut /Aperture conflict.
    If so the easiest way to fix the situation is to just install the operating system Mountain Lion again. Re-installing the OS will not damage your data files however is it always a good idea to have a full backup in cases lie this.

  • Will launch in Eclipse, won't launch from command prompt

    I've got a project that works in Eclipse, but won't run from the command line prompt.
    The command line command that I'm using is this...
    java -cp /users/shared/RainfallSeriesTranslator/bin ui/LauncherThe error I get is this...
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
    Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
         at ui.Launcher.getMethods(Launcher.java:37)
         at ui.Launcher.<clinit>(Launcher.java:15)and the class is this...
    import java.io.File;
    import java.io.FilenameFilter;
    import java.util.ArrayList;
    public class Launcher {
         private final static String name = "RainfallSeriesTranslatorPanel";
         private final static String[] methods = getMethods();
         private final static String fileExt = ".class";
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              new Panel(name, methods);
         public static String[] getMethods() {
              String workingDirectory = System.getProperty("user.dir");
              String fileSeparator = System.getProperty("file.separator");
              String methodDirectory = workingDirectory + fileSeparator + "bin" + fileSeparator + "methods";
              File dir = new File(methodDirectory);
              ArrayList <String> methodsAL = new ArrayList<String>();
              FilenameFilter filter = new FilenameFilter() {
                      public boolean accept(File dir, String name) {
                          return name.endsWith(fileExt);
              String []contents = dir.list(filter);
              for (int i = 0; i < contents.length; i++){

         public String getPanelName() {
              return name;
         public String getFileExtensionName() {
              return fileExt;
    }BTW the purpose of getMethods is to dynamically list out the classes (files) in the directory 'methods', and to load the names into an array which is passed to a JComboBox in the Panel.  My intention is to permit users to select which method to use for the next step of the analysis.  If there's a better way to do it, I'd like to know.
    Having played around with the code, I can get it to run if I 'hardwire' the methodsAL arraylist to ...          methodsAL.add("Some method");...but that defeats the purpose of reading in the classnames dynamically.
    So, the nullpointerexception seems to do with the array 'contents' not getting populated, but I can't figure out why.  As I noted above, it works in Eclipse, so why doesn't it work from the command prompt?

    Sorry, I had cut out some comment lines at the top.
    Line 37 is the line
    for (int i = 0; i < contents.length; i++){So it looks like the nullpointerexception is generated because the array 'contents' has a null (zero?) length.
    On reflection, is this to do with the working directory? You will note that I have prepended the 'methods' directory with the working directory path. I'm thinking that this would work in Eclipse because the working directory is something, but it does not work when I execute from the command prompt because the working directory is something else.
    If this is the case, then what is the best way to find a directory at a relative location to a class?You get that error because the directory doesn't exist at the given location (the bin folder I guess). dir.list() returns null.

  • Final Cut Server 1.5: G5 clients won't launch from icon

    So I upgraded my client from FCServer 1.1.1 to 1.5. They have a mix of G5 and Mac Pro stations. The 4 Mac Pros are all working fine after some fiddling and Java cache deleting. The G5s, however, won't run the client launched from the saved icon.
    Scenario:
    Access the client download from (IP address)/finalcutserver in a web browser - this works.
    The applet downloads and saves - this works.
    SOMETIMES it asks where to save the app - sometimes works.
    The client app runs, logs in, all working fine - great.
    BUT...if you quit and try to relaunch from that icon, it doesn't work. Purged Java caches, emptied the cache in the client, etc. - nothing. Updated from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8, same problem.
    The Intel boxes all work, none of the G5s do - seems entirely platform specific.
    -mike

    Heh... I solved this... in a manner of speaking. I really appreciate the input from Nicholas, Andy, RadUS, and everyone else, but nothing worked.
    Weird. May be actually a Java problem, not a FCSvr problem, maybe something in the Java implementation of 10.5.7 and later. But who knows? No word on this from Apple. There's a surprise.
    Here's the solution I ended up with. It's a cop-out I know, but it works!
    My solution was to put the Final Cut Server.jnlp file on my desktop and just launch it from there. You can even make it look like the desktop app if you want. Here's how:
    First you have to get the Final Cut Server.jnlp file on your desktop. It's not easy to find, because it's located in some weird temp directory somewhere buried in the recesses of the OS. If you don't know where it is, look through your browser's download history and find it. You can always redownload it by going to your server (yourserver.com/finalcutserver) and redownloading it. When you find it, move it to your desktop. Then do a Get Info on both the desktop app and jnlp file. Click on the icon for the app (the tray with the balls) and press Command C to copy the icon. Then click on the jnlp icon (the document with the cup of java) and press Command V to paste the FCSvr desktop app icon to the jnlp. Then check "hide extension" in the jnlp's get info window. Voila. You now have a "fake" desktop app. Yes, it's fake. Get over it! You won't be able to tell a difference. This is the only solution I came up with and I reinstalled Leopard twice.
    Hope this helps others too!

  • 4.3 won't launch from lrcat files

    I always launch LR by double-clicking the catalog files for the images that I want to work in.... I have many catalogs so launching from the one I need is the simplest way.  Installed 4.3 today, and now, double-clicking the catalog files does nothing... LR won't launch, nothing happens.  anyone else seeing this?? any help from Adobe??

    Okay, that answered that question for me. But something else just doesn't make sense. I just tried it again, double clicked on the catalog file, and Lightroom opened just as expected. All I did was download the 4.3 update and install it like I normally do. So I wonder why it would fail to do a registry entry on your computer but not mine. I'm not challenging you, or saying that you are wrong. It just doesn't make sense. It almost seems like if there is any anomaly with Lightroom or with the computer that Lightroom is automatically the thing that gets blamed. The program has been so erratic, baggy, inconsistent, slow, and who knows what else that it seems to have gotten some people terribly gun shy. I just wish Adobe could almost start over if necessary to make things right. I like Lightroom a lot. Maybe I'm just going to have to stop reading the forums because every time I come on here I get scared about another problem. I hope I don't run into the same thing you're having. But I wish Adobe looked like they were really on top of things.

  • System Preferences & Software Update won't launch from Apple Menu

    I could really use some help with this, I've tried google searches etc and nothing has worked out.
    I recently upgraded from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8 and then changed back to 10.4.11
    When it was installed (from a Universal retail not the DVD that came with the mac) I copied all the folders from "Previous System" and replaced the newly made ones.
    At some point I was using System Preferences when it vanished with the usual message "Closed unexpectedly, reopen, close etc". Since then neither System Preferences nor Software Update will launch from the apple menu. System Preferences will, however, open from the dock.
    When they are clicked on the hard drive makes some noise and then stops and nothing appears.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi catloo, and a warm welcome to the forums!

  • Safari and Software Update won't launch on Macbook

    I have a macbook (OS X 10.4.11) that I haven't used in a while. I tried to use it today but Safari crashes as soon as I launch it. I can't even view a page--Safari and its menu appear momentarily on the top bar and then disappear. Software Update does the same thing. Skype didn't launch the first time I tried, but it did after doing some disk repair. I don't want to use the Mac CD to take it to factory settings because I don't want to lose the Microsoft Office I have on it. Is there a way to make these programs work?

    When you boot up the Mac with the install disc in, hold the C key for around 10-20 seconds. THEN let go of the C key. I notice this when doing this on my Mac. I would hold down the C key for a minute, and give up cause I think it just froze, and let go of the button only to find out that it didn't really work cause I had to let go of the C key. It also takes a while to boot up too. I'm not sure about the next part, but I think it goes like this. It will show you a installation screen, and on the top bar, you click utilities and Disk Utility. I don't remember the whole process cause I haven't done it in a while.

    After OS update towards mountian lion (i believe, but not sure), a hyperlink in an email is opened in Safari, but my screen is not automatically swapping towards safari from mail. Not if i'm working on the desktop, nor working in full screen mode. I need to move manually to the other screen, to see the webpage opening.
    In the past it was working, but I can't find the settings to get this solved. Today I've update to Yosemite, and it didn't solve this for me.
    Who can help me? It is really appreciated
    thanks
