Some apps crash but others work - HD has been repaired

Hi, I had error that HD needed to be repaired when I ran disk check in disk utility. I inserted the start up disk and repaired the HD. I then ran another check in disk utility and HD was repaired. Unfortunately, I still have some apps that will not run such as iTunes and iPhoto. Other apps like Firefox and Word run just fine. When I click on iTunes or iPhoto it bounces a few times then nothing. I have looked at the console output and it says that the program has crashed. I then go to view the files in the crash reported but it is empty. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to repair this or do the programs need to be reinstalled. Thank you!

Hi messnerm001, and a warm welcome to the forums!
They may need replacing, fixing the HD may or may not fox files, it just repairs where the OS thinks the files are and such.
Try this first, Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Reboot.
If the above fails, then it appears to be time for a relatively painless Archive & Install, which gives you a new/old OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space and no Disk corruption, and is relatively quick & painless...

  • I am using Numbers app for the ipad and it has been working absolutely fine but now, when I want to email a spreadsheet as a PDF via the 'share and print' option, the file now doesn't appear as an attachment to the recipient. Any ideas please?

    Hi mafiose15,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
    How to restore iPod
    Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
    Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
    After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
    Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
    During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
    Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    You can find the instructions in this article:
    Restoring iPod to factory settings

    What Extensions do you have installed in Safari, and is Glims one of them?
    Try turning them all off in Safari>Preferences>Extensions and also in Glims (if installed - I think it has its own set of Preferences) and then test.

  • Hi..I have just recently got an iPhone and I had installed some apps already but now when I try to install and download any apps it just sits there on "waiting" and will not download.. Im able to erase it but no apps will download now. What Do I do?

    Hi..I have just recently got an iPhone and I had installed some apps already but now when I try to install and download any apps it just sits there on "waiting" and will not download.. Im able to erase it but no apps will download now. I have tried logging out of the app store but it still did the same thing. I also tried resetting it and that didn't work either. I've tried everything I can think of but still just sits there saying "waiting." what do I do?

    - Maybe here:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting
    - Try redownloading the app directly to the iPod by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    Perhaps, but it just got a chunk of publicity.
    As for the OP:  Poor taste or irreverence is not a crime in the US. Apple is an American company. While they have the right to pull an app from the store, it will not likely be their first reaction. And frankly, raising a ruckus about will likely only bring attention to it. Basically the app as been sitting in the app store since August of last year without a single review. The developer would love to get the publicity, I'm sure. As already stated, you delete it, or considering that it is clearly labeled as containing crude humor, not download it in the first place. Go back to the app store and give it a review if you like.
    Personally, I'm more offended by the knee-jerk push to censor than the app itself.

    You stated; " I have been successful with My Power Mac "
    A Power Mac is incapable of being upgraded to Mavericks. It is a PPC Mac which can only run versions of OS X up to 10.5.8 and no higher. Any version of OS X higher that 10.5.8 requires an Intel processor to run.
    Does the iMac meet the hardware requirements for Mavericks?

    The report shows you don't have enough RAM required to run all of the apps you run at the same time. Yosemite takes way more RAM than what OS X used to take.
    To solve the problem do either one of these:
    restart your mac from time to time (every night for ex).
    Use less apps at the same time.
    upgrade to 8GB of RAM if your Mac allows it

    Re: Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!
    in response to Johannes666
    Recommended
    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    ATA bus error means that data corruption occurred during transmission over ATA bus (SATA or PATA). This type of errors can be indicated by
    ICRC or ABRT error as described in the section called “ATA/ATAPI device error (non-NCQ / non-CHECK CONDITION)”.
    Controller-specific error completion with error information indicating transmission error.
    On some controllers, command timeout. In this case, there may be a mechanism to determine that the timeout is due to transmission error.
    Unknown/random errors, timeouts and all sorts of weirdities.
    As described above, transmission errors can cause wide variety of symptoms ranging from device ICRC error to random device lockup, and, for many cases, there is no way to tell if an error condition is due to transmission error or not; therefore, it's necessary to employ some kind of heuristic when dealing with errors and timeouts. For example, encountering repetitive ABRT errors for known supported command is likely to indicate ATA bus error.
    Once it's determined that ATA bus errors have possibly occurred, lowering ATA bus transmission speed is one of actions which may alleviate the problem.
    I'd also add; make sure you have good backups when ATA errors are frequent

    I had already tried deleting the review slide itself, though Captivate wouldn't let me - it just hid it. I tried again using the method you recommended but the slide remained in the filmstrip, so I tried deleting again, then re-added it from the Quiz Settings page ... no joy, same behavior as before.
    I checked the Advanced Interaction page and confirmed that all of the scored questions were configuredthe same way as the non-scored questions, with the only difference being the pool that they were drawing from.
    Other thoughts? I am by no means a Captivate expert but this one really feels like it shouldn't be this hard, and I'm more than a little afraid that it's the file itself that's jacked up ...
