Some apple apps won't open

Hi all,
Sins one week some of my apple apps wont open.
(i have a dutch installation)
The font library
App store
Document/image viewer
and maybe even more didnt check all the applications
Running mac os x 10.9.1
Macbook pro begin 2011
When i want to open some of the above apps, the screen just flashes and the dock just pops but no icon is shown or app is opening.
Thanks

You ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system.
The first thing you need to do is remove that software, if you know what it is, 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.
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.

    Facetime
    iMessages
    App Store

    Boot into your recovery partition and repair your hard drive. While you're there, repair permissions too. When to Run First Aid in Mountain Lion's Disk Utility - For Dummies (the title of the link is for ML, but it applies to Mavericks too).
    How full is your hard drive?
    Do you have any "cleaners" , antivirus software, "utilities", "optimizers", or any other crapware installed? That may be the problem.
    Try a safe boot. The safe boot boots with only Apple software. If the safe boot elimanates the symptom, then the problem is some third-party software that you have installed. Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?

  • Apple apps won't open??????????????

    I've had 10.4.8 for ever and everything has been fine since a couple of days. I now can't open Final Cut Pro, Compressor or Logic. When I click to open either one of these apps. the icon on the docks gets its little triangle to indicate that the app is opening but close up really quickly.
    I've since installed 10.4.9 to see if that would help (I can't install any higher because of Pro Tools) but it's the same.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I hope you guys don't mind but I'm going to cut and past the console text here:

  • Many Apple Apps won't open on my iMac

    When I click on the app icon, I immediately get a message saying, “________ quit unexpectedly".  I created another admin profile and everything seems to work fine there.  I have the latest OS update installed on this computer.  Please help!

    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 and start typing the name.
    Step 1
    For this step, 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.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.

  • Some apps won't open after OS X Mavericks update

    After the update to OS X Mavericks, some apps won't open on my macbook pro.  That include things like preview, boot camp assistant, from what I've tried so far. When I click on those from applications menu or from the spotlight search, the icon appear on the dock very briefly(like 1 sec) and nothing happened after that. Based on the internet search, I tried the Disk permissions repair and didn't work. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Hi aung.24,

  • Some of my apps won't open- when try to open..they just shut down when opening..?

    Hi guys... Any tech advice would be welcome... My first time on this forum..
    Some of my apps won't open- when I try  to open them..it just shuts them down.
    It then goes back to the home screen. This is happening on eBay, calander, bbc news. Each day is different one.
    Then it seems to be ok, and hey hey... It does it again!
    Usually choosing another app?
    It also drops out sometimes, if I go from an eBay item link to Safari.
    Again back to the home screen....
    I have had these problems for about 6 weeks, my iPad is 2 months old..
    It's  first iPad, and I love it!
    but never had any problems before like these on my iPhones..
    Thanks

    troublshooting:
    go to your open apps (double click on the home button). remove all of the apps you have open there.
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Follow these steps to reset your device
    Note: Reset your device only if it is no longer responding and the steps above do not work.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    if those don't work you may have to restore your ipad and see if that doesn't fix anything
    I think your issue is an open tab you have in Safari but it could be a number of things.
    If these don't work, I would go to the apple store, tell them you pretty much did everything you could and the issue comes back, then you can deduce what the issue is possible by keeping track of which apps you have open.

  • Some of my apps won't open? I have the iPhone 4s.

    Whenever I clicked an app, the screen would sortve blink but it wouldnt open. So I tried deleting an app and then I reinstalled it and the other apps still wouldn't open. So I tried the same thing with an app I actually wanted to use which was temple run, and it worked again. Only thing is, it deleted everything. All my data, all the things I bought on it. I definitely was not a happy camper. For future references, can anyone else suggest something I should do when my apps won't open? ... And anyone know how I can get back all of that stuff? Im really unhappy about deleting an app and all of its data and having to reinstall it everytime it doesn't open. Hope apple fixes this problem soon.

  • Should I downgrade from iOS 6.1.3 to 6.1.2? Because some apps won't open. It keeps on crashing.

    Tap tap, GarageBand, and other apps won't open. Is it about the firmware?

    You cannot downgrade the iOS since it is not supported. This support article explains how to trouble shoot 3rd party apps on the iPad.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    If all third party apps will not open, try downloading another app. Any free app will work or any already purchased app that is not currently on the iPad.
    If the troubleshooting article doesn help, I would try this. Close all apps and reboot the iPad.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My iPad apps won't open?

    My iPad apps won't open help?

    I have the same issues. My iPad 1 will not download apps or update apps.  They are constantly waiting.  I have tried logging out of iTunes, powering down iPad, then restarting and signing back into my apple account ( all through the iPad).  I found a post that mentioned updating the apps on your computer via iTunes, then uploading them onto the iPad.  However, I can't find the update apps button anywhere on iTunes to do that.  So that didn't work.  However, updating apps on my iPhone 4s and iTouch 1 still go just fine.  Im not sure when this started.  I do know that as soon as I downloaded the iOS 5.0.  It was like driving my iPad threw molasses.  The thing was and still is slow as ****.  Which is a whole other can or worms that apple needs to deal with. However, back on topic... My iPad no longer downloads apps, updates apps, and as of right now,will no longer download music that I have purchased through iTunes.  The music just sits the and says waiting to download.  NEED SOME HELP ON THIS!!!!!
