[SOLVED] pekwm - can't launch certain applications outside from termin

I'm currently using pekwm and I'm experiencing a strange issue.
I can't launch certain, random applications by keyboard-shortcut, the pekwm-command-launcher, the start file (pekwm start file and .xinitrc) and the menu.
But it works if I open a terminal and launch the application there.
The applications that don't open include chromium, tint2 and mpc.
Does anybody know how to make these applications launch everywhere?

I couldn't get tint2 to work at all in PekWM. I hope a PekWM guru takes notice of this thread...

  • Can I launch an application from keynote?

    We have a proprietary application that we want to launch directly from our presentation - can't seem to do it from a hyperlink...any other ways to launch?

    Two options for you:
    Make sure the other app is open before you start the Keynote Presentation and then press command-tab to change to it. Then you can command-tab back to your Keynote Presentation.
    In the Keynote Preferences>Slideshow, make sure that you have the Allow Exposé, Dashboard and others to use screen checked and then you can use Exposé to switch apps.

  • Can't launch Adobe Application Manager CS6 for MAC

    When I try to launch the application, I get a "AdobeApplicationManager quit unexpectedly" message with a very long report containing "Problem Details and System Configuration" which is sent to Apple automatically.
    The "Updates" function within each application (Photoshop, Bridge, etc.) works just fine.

    Albertos35110529 are you trying to install the Creative Cloud Desktop application or are you trying to open it?  If it is already installed then you will want to open it from the Applications folder.  You can find more details regarding the installation process at Help | Download, install, update, or uninstall apps.

  • Can I remove some applications permanently from my PowerBook?

    When I don't play or use some applications on my iPhone, I just uncheck the application on iPhone > Applications of iTune, and syncing to remove from iPhone. But is there a way to remove the applications permanently from my iPhone > Applications of iTune on my PowerBook?
    Thanks in advance for help.

    Select the app, tap the delete key on your keyboard or use the iTunes Edit menu -> delete. Select the "keep files" button if you want to keep the app in your iTunes mobile applications folder, otherwise select "Move to Trash".

  • Launching jws application outside firewall

    Hi all,
    We have successfully deployed our application with JWS at a client site. We don't have any problems within the client environment, but we can't seem to provide home access to their users.
    Client is using Cisco VPN Concentrator 3020 series and they give only WebVPN access.
    We have tried many things but here is where we are stuck:
    1. User goes to the website
    2. Establishes a WebVPN session after entering the user/pwd
    3. User enters the URL for the application
    4. home.html goes through fine
    5. JWS launch errors out with an exception.
    Exception is 'missing <jnlp>'. When you look at the Launch File, you see an html page with fields for username and password entry. It seems like as JWS start creates a new connection to the secure website, it needs to authenticate it self. Unfortunately we don't receive the 401 http code, instead we receive an html form.
    I would appreciate any ideas for dealing with this situation.
    Thanks,

    If your jnlp file contains the <offline-allowed> javaws will "attempt" to
    download new jar files if it can read the timestamps from the net (and determine that new versions are needed) within a certain timeout (defaults to 1.5 seconds). If the timeout occurs the old version will launch, and the timestamp check will continue in the background. If the timestamp check then finds new files, it will simply flag this in the cache, so on the next launch it will be forced to download.
    I don't see any reason why it should be any differant launching from browser or from Application Manager, unless that changes the timeing so the check just happens to work within the timeout.

  • Can't Launch "Memo" Application ... Soft Reboots Every Time I Try

    Help. All of a sudden, my device no longer allows me to launch the Memo application. When I tap to launch the app my device soft reboots every time. I have a ton of critical information in my memos that I need to access every day (fortunately, all the info is backed up on my desktop - it syncs to MS Outlook). Anybody know how I can fix this? I've seen this behavior with other applications on my TX, but this is the first time I have seen it on one of the core applications. Thanks for any help.
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    Sounds like a corrupted Memo application that could be causing the reboot.
    Go to www.pimlicosoftware.com and download a trial of dbfixit scan your device and see if it finds any errors.

  • Can I launch an application from website?

    I am trying to design a website, which I do not want to publish on the web, just on my own computer.  I would like to establish hyperlinks to applications and documents, which when clicked open the applcation or document itself.  Idelly, I would like the website I design to become my desktop, giving me customised access to applications and files plus a splash of humour and widgetry.  I doubt that os x is going to let me use a webpage as a desktop, but, if I run safari on opening, is there a way that I can achieve my ambition?  All thoughts and suggestions welcome.  Best.

    Funny, alot of Lion users would like to go the other way. Launchpad is an iOSesk application launcher built into lion.

  • Can't launch any applications!

    While I was in Workgroup Manager setting up various permissions, including what applications can be seen and launched, I accidently locked myself out. Now, after logging in as an Administrator, nothing in the Dock (including Server Prefs, Server Admin) will launch, and even System Preferences says I don't have permission to launch it.
    Is there a way I can launch Workgroup Manager again and undo the damage? Thanks for the help!

    If you have ssh access enabled for the same administrator, you might be able to ssh in from a different machine and run:
    open -a 'Workgroup Manager'
    If not, you can also try logging in on the console with a 'Local Administrator' (or localadmin) account, using the same password initially setup for the first administrator (probably only works if you installed of the 10.5.0 DVD and didn't do an upgrade.)
