Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect

Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect to the Internet. Software Update fails with a suggestion of running Network Diagnostic. Network diagnostic says everything is fine. Firefox connects without any problems. Any ideas. This is my work computer and I need it to work.

Fixed it myself. Under network settings "Auto Proxy Discovery" was enabled. When I turned this off everything started working again. Not sure how this was enabled in the first place.

Mail, Safari, Software Update and Yahoo Messenger crash on startup in 10.4.

I'm running a G4 Dual 1 Ghz with 1.5 Ram on 10.4.9 and Mail, Safari, iPhoto, Software Update and Yahoo Messenger crash on startup. Pro Tools (which is why I remain on 10.4.9) Firefox (which is how I can communicate now) and iTunes work fine.
iPhoto crashed and never started again back when I was on Panther. However, all the others started crashing on startup shortly after I upgraded from 10.4 to 10.4.9.
I have run Disk Utility to verify disk and repair permissions. With the exception of iPhoto, it seems that the others crash when it starts to stream from the Internet.
Any ideas?

Here's what console showed. Not much:

My assumption on things such as Mail and Safari is that once I upgraded the system those applications would upgrade as well. As to Yahoo Messenger, I downloaded the proper version and reinstalled, but it crashes as well.
Seems to be something when it's about to connect to the Internet--with the exception of Firefox, which is why I can post now.
Mike
PS -- I'd consider the 10411 combo update, but Digidesign only supports Pro Tools 7.4 up to 10.4.9. That said, many people use it with 10.4.11 and I'll definitely try the 10.4.11 upgrade before I try an entire system reinstall.

Did Lightroom software update and now camera won't tether

I have been using my Canon 5D Mark II tethered to Lightroom 4 successfully for quite some time. Last week I downloaded the software update and now the camera will not tether. I have tried two camera bodies and neither work. Both cameras will tether with Lightroom on a different computer (that didn't get the update). So, it's the software. Help!

Hi
try a safe boot - holding down the Shift key until it starts up -
Simply performing the Safe Boot may resolve this issue.
Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
Start your Mac, then immediately hold the Shift key. This performs a Safe Boot. Advanced tip: If you want to see the status of a Safe Boot as it progresses, you can hold Shift-Command-V during start up (instead of just Shift).
Note: A Safe Boot takes longer than a typical start up because it includes a disk check and other operations.
If your Mac starts up as expected, immediately try restarting.
If the Safe Boot does not work, or the restart after a successful Safe Boot does not work, go to the next section.
More info on what a Safe Boot does at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564
also follow the rest of the troubleshooting guide at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570

HT1688 I tried to update my iPhone 5 this morning with the new software update and now it won't turn on. When I plug into my itunes account, it says my phone is in recovery mode. Was working perfectly prior to the attempt to update. How do I fix this?

I tried to update my iPhone 5 this morning with the new software update. Now my phone won't turn on. When I plug into iTunes, it says that my phone is in recovery mode and that it needs to be restored to factory settings. Is there a way to fix this without losing my settings? Why would this happen on a software update?

Zach Doody wrote:
itunes says i cannot update the phone as it is in recovery mode.
That is not what it says. Read the message again. It's telling you it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode and it must be restored.
Restore it. You don't have a choice at this point.

10.3.9 and Safari, Software Updates and certain System Prefs stall

I've been using Firefox for over a year now because Safari stalls when I try loading it. Same thing happens when I try to make Software Updates or when I go into System Preferences and choose Security, Accounts, Sharing, etc.
The weird thing is that all my software (Quark, AI, PS, etc) works just fine but when it comes to the other stuff I listed above, I just see the windmill or whatever you call that thing. I don't have the energy to try and find my updater CDs so I'm really hoping there is an easier fix to this problem. THanks
Bob

Hi Bob!
Is this the model Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics)?
If so, before you upgraded to OS X, did you first install this Firmware Update?
Which, would have required you, to start the computer from a Mac OS 8 or Mac OS 9 System Folder on the computer's hard disk, not from a CD, to install it.
In the past, you inquired about installing Tiger 10.4.x, on the G4.
In your first post here, you list your computer specs as PowerPC G4 Mac OS X 10.3.9). Which is Panther.
In the post above, you list the specs as PowerPC G4 Mac OS X (10.0.x), which is Cheetah.
Exactly which version of OS X is installed?
What version of OS, was previously installed on the G4?
Which of the discs, linked to below, did you use to upgrade?
And what was the exact procedure, you used to install the new version?
The Jaguar Full Retail CDs, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD?
The discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.

Software updates and Mac App store issue

Hi,
I'm using v10.7.5 at the moment and i have problem getting software updates.
I've ran diagnostics and it checked that everything is ok. But I just cannot seem to get App Store to load and check for updates.
Its just indicated that it cannot connect to internet. But internet is workinkg just fine and I can check emails and download other stuff.
Just cannot use App Store.
What is wrong?
Thanks in advance.

If I use an Apple ID to install the updates, does that mean that future updates will need to use the same ID?
Yes.
Or can we use a generic ID for imaging - then end users can use their own Apple ID's for future updates?
No.
Ian, you can only update apps from the same Apple ID they were originally purchased from. And purchases cannot be transferred from one account to another. That is Apple's policy.

Updating and installing apps won't install after update to R29

Hi all,
You can't update an existing app in Adobe DPS App Builder and install it.
You need to create a new app each time. This is to time consuming.
Anyone else noticed this?
regards
Mario

We think we’ve located the problem. It could be the actual signing when you download the ipa frop DPS Builder.
we’ve unpacked the ipa
Removed the CodeSignatures folder
And signed it again manually using Terminal
Zipped it all back to an ipa
And we successfully installed the ipa using iTunes.
So therefore, we think this might be a signing issue in the Adobe DPS App Builder

App store and Mail app are crashing in my mac air 10.9.5

All my apps are crashing and i am not able to open any of them . App store for Software update and Mail app, Photos app are all crashing. I have OS X 10.9.5 in my system. I removed Parallels trail version and also Clean My Mac app, Still i have the issue,Please help me to resolve the issue,

"CleanMyMac" purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.
The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

10.9.4 installed, now Software Update and App Store won't open

Ahoy.
I installed the 10.9.4 update and now Software Update and the App Store won't open. I don't know what other information might be relevant here.

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.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again.

Safari and mail app not working on my iPod Touch 3rd generation.

I have an iPod touch 3rd generation and my safari and mail app won't work and it's driving me crazy! My safari app keeps crashing when I open it so that's not working, and my mail app opens up but doesnt load then crashes. Can somebody tell what to do?!!!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

HT6041 does anyone have information re: motion 5.1 ? the latest security bulletin describes the need for it but neither " software update: or the "app store" seems to have it.

I have read and re read this security bulletin and I have checked software update and the " app store" and there is no mention of "motion" or "motion 5.1"

FWIW, here is the Apple troubleshooting note for Motion updates that aren't being offered, and the Apple best practices for Motion and related. Here are the Mac App Store troubleshooting tips.

Ipad 4 after update to IO8 Safari and Mail App would not start

I have updated my Apple Ipad 4 to IOS8.
Modell MD510FD/A
After this update Safari and Mail App do not start. It open the app a short time and closed by itself.
I have restarted the Ipad for 3 times. But the problem still happen.

Hi t.reiterer,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Since these are native apps that come with the OS, it sounds like a reinstall is in order. A full backup first, then restore.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If a regular restore doesn't help. Try a restore as new.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
Again, make sure you have a good backup first.
Best Regards,
Nubz
