Since DL Lion, My ichat will not load says i need to re-install

I keep getting this error message, and i have checked for updates, and restarted my macbook pro several times, and still is not working..;
"Check with the developer to make sure iChat works with this version of Mac OS X.
You may need to reinstall the aplication.
Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OS X.

Please HELP!!!

Hi,
My son has Lion installed and I misunderstood what he told me about the download.  (I had presumed it saved the download as a .dmg that you could reuse)
Reinstalling in Snow Leopard or Lion should not delete any of your personal stuff but it is always wise to have a Backup.
If when you highlight iChat in the Applications Folder and do a Get Info (CMD + I keys together) AND the change to 64 bit is not staying are you doing it from an Admin Users Account  ?
(the App will not stay highlighted if you press CMD and I separately)

  • ITunes will not load--says I need new version of Quick Time

    I've used iTunes for a year and downloaded the new software 7.01--it will not run, says I need to install new version of Quick time. I removed all versions of iTunes off my computer and reinstalled iTunes with same result--Need to install new version of Quick Time. I did this and Quick time said--Can't install because a more current version of Quick time is already installed. Catch 22? Is this a do loop of apple frustration or what? Any ideas would be appreciated.
    iTunes used to work great, I'm very disappointed in apple right now.

    i can take pictures off my phone but thats it, i have some nice programs for pictures and art work and cant get them back on my phone to send them to friends and family. Also have some OLD pictures of Family on this Computer that was given to me i want to get off of it and send out but i can dragg and dropp from phone to computer but i cant drag and drop onto phone from computer and there the same jpg files, sad. i like my iphone5 and want another one but i might have to change when it time to upgrade , i dont want to, but i cant afford internet let alone a mac or pc, this one was given to me, was lucky to have saved to get the phone and service on a family plan, i have unlimited internet on phone that is my life source for internet, wish io could afford both phone and internet, its phone or internet, and with phone i have both in a way

  • FF 18.01 will not print-Says printer needs to be installed. Already installed

    When I go print a page from a website, The error message states that there is no printer do you want to install a printer.
    1- System shows that there is a printer, it works.
    2- Nothing happens if say yes (install)

    Funky, it isn' the HP Printer. I have had the same problem with Firefox v 12-18 (which is why I don't use Firefox...would really like to use firefox.) I have RESET PRINTER till I'm blue in the face. I have used HP, Samsung, Brother, and Epson printers that all print in IE explorer just fine, but won't print in firefox. I have had three different firewalls as well. So if someone has a clue other than to RESET PRINTER, please give it a shot......and by the way, I can't find "print.print_printer" in Config either. There is a "print_printer" but nothing else. I post this same problem every year, but no one seems to have an answer.......so I go back to IE explorer - yuck. Please, please don't tell me to RESET PRINTER.........

  • W540 will not load from SSD, need help

    I just bought a W540 (windows 8) and extra SSD to replace the original HD in W540.
    I have created a recovery image in windows 8 to my 16G USB flash and disabled intel rapid storage.
    I put the new 512G Crucial MX100 SSD into the machine, and use USB flash drive to reset the laptop.
    After the reset process was finished, I took out the USB flash drive, but the laptop will not load windows from my SSD, and the laptop did detect my SSD.
    I am wondering if I did something wrong? I took out the SSD and put it in to my desktop, and I did see files were written into the SSD, but W540 will not load it, 

    The reason for your machine not booting might be found here:
    Windows 8 Recovery Fails to Install on New Blank SSD
    It does not give any info if the Recovery Media actually formats the drive in GPT mode, which is required for UEFI boot, in which case you might have to re-format your new SSD and re-install it with your recovery USB, which you're probably required to boot in UEFI mode as well. I have only installed Windows 8 in UEFI mode with an original retail DVD, and to achieve that I had to boot the DVD in UEFI mode.

  • Since July 24, 2010, firefox will not load any webpage. I uninstalled 3.6.8 and want to re-install 3.6.2. How can I do this?

    My updated firefox version will not work at all. I uninstalled it, and want to go back to my previous version which was always working. I have Microsoft Vista. Please help as soon as possible.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == July 24, 2010 ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.99 Safari/533.4

    This can be caused by a firewall blocking internet access to Firefox. See [[Firewalls]]. That link has a list of popular firewalls and how to configure them to work with Firefox.
    Also see [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]]
    If you <u>must</u> install a previous version, see [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]].

  • Time to time firefox will not load, says it is running but cant close and reopen

    Every once in a while Firefox will not run, it says something about a file in the profile directory and that it is running and to close the current session or restart. I run task manager but it isn't running. It seems to fix when I clean my computer, I haven't noticed a pattern to this it's just from time to time.

    Please see this article: [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]

  • Lion os x will not load after user name

    Try connecting your Mac to your router with an Ethernet cable, Wire it to the router. Then try the Re-Install.

  • Firefox was hanging up, I uninstalled and downloaded firefox 18. It will not load, says I have to remove older versions which I have done several times

    I can't load firefox 18. It asks if I want to uinstall older version if you answer no it dumps you out. If you answer yes it reboots and nothing changes

    Please turn off the computer and turn it back on to see if it helps.
    Also please try a clean profile.
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
    #Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
    '''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
    After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
    * '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
    * '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
    #Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
    #In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
    #Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
    #* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
    #* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
    #Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
    Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    #Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    #Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • Itunes will not load. I need to sync iphone

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled with and without my antivirus enabled. I have made sure everything is updated. I have tried using a new user account. Nothing works. Anyone know what to do?

    I don't get an error message. It doesn't come up at all.
    Many thanks.
    If it's not giving an error message and the itunes.exe is disappearing after a few seconds, we'd better check for malware.
    Try downloading and installing the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware. Update your MBAM definitions and then run a full scan of the PC. (Takes about 2 hour on my Lenovo.)
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    Does the scan find any infections? If so, please paste the contents of the log file for the scan into a reply here so we can have a look.

  • I have cleared caches & cookies till I am blue in the face but the National Lottery site will not load-says "connection reset" every time Please help?

    I have followed all the advice on the forum time and again and I think I managed to get onto the Lottery site once but if I did anything I got the same message again....."the connection was reset"
    It is only this site....what else can I do ?

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
