Suddenly Can't Open Aperture vr 1.5.4

Hi,
New to this board so please bear with me. I've done a search but can't seem to find my issue. For the last year I've been using Aperture vr 1.5.4 with my MacBook successfully. I updated to Leopard and all was fine. Two days ago when I went to open Aperture I received this message, "You can't use this version of the application Aperture with this version of Mac OS X". I went to the update site and downloaded the vr 1.5.4 updates. When I went to install them I got this message, "Alert - Aperture 1.0 or later is required to install this update." I've done a disc repair and that didn't help. I can get in Aperture by going through the back door (exe files). I'd greatly appreciate any help or being pointed in the direction of an existing discussion of problem.
Many thanks in advance,
Sprague

There is a mention in this article about deleting several files pertaining to Aperture that may work. Please let us know the results. (I have read another post here that remains unanswered at this time where someone else is having a very similar issue).

Suddenly Can't Open PDFs. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab.

Suddenly Can't Open PDFs in Firefox. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab. Nice timing, with finals and everything where I need to view PDFs of practice tests.

Mozilla Firefox did not do their job, here. I am an editor and am constantly online. Now, I have to go to Safari to download PDFs. I reinstalled an earlier version of Firefox to get rid of the problem, but somehow Firefox has deactivated my PDF download feature. This is a total wreck and I am so angry I could spit. Stop launching new products until you have fully tested them. Customers are not your guinea pigs. Please fix this now- and fire a few idiots on the way- the ones who let this happen.

Can't open Aperture 3.2.4 after upgrade from 10.6.8 to 10.9

I just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mavericks and everything looks fine, except for the fact that I can't open Aperture anymore. The dock icon is crossed out and when I click on it, I get the message "You can't open the application "Aperture" because it is not supported on this type of Mac.
I am running Aperture 3.2.4 which was the latest supported version under Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I was under the impression that I could upgrade to the latest version of Aperture under the new operating system....
--> What does that mean? My Mac was able to upgrade to the latest operating system but the applications are not??
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

I tested this:
Reinstalled Aperture 3.1 from the Trial Installer.
In some way it seems to be working. But the whole thing is a scary Chimera.
It can create an Aperture library. I can import and edit images, even in Graphic Converter ias an external editor.
But the Media Browser does not show the aperture Library that I created.
The versioning is inconsistent. The library appears as an Aperture 3.4 library in the Finder. Aperture 3.5 seems to be able to read this library and to upgrade it to 3.5
The Applications folder is showing the application as version 3.4 and as compatible. Spotlight is showing it as illegal.
When opening the chimera Aperture, I see plenty of warnings in the Console window:
An Aperture "Hang" report
xpcproxy assertion failed
com.apple.IconServiceAgent: main failed to composite image
quicklookd: Warning
and more ... the hang was critical. I had to force quit Aperture more than once.
So be careful. I would not trust any important Aperture library to this patched application, without testing thoroughly. Be careful with your precious photos.

Suddenly can't open .eps files in FW8

Hi all-
I suddenly can't open .eps files in FW8. Starts to open and then says "Internal error occurred" Text tool is also acting up. I think it may be related to one of the extensions I downloaded from the Adobe Exchange. Or, maybe it was something I did. Probably the latter. Either way, it seems like my FW8 has gotten corrupted. Ran spyware, adware, defrag, and virus scans. Even talked nice to my computer, but nothing has worked. I looked for patches or downloads on Adobe's site but there are none for FW8.
Anyway, I'm guessing my only option is to reinstall, unless someone out there has a better idea. If I do reinstall, does it erase everything? Meaning, will I lose all extensions and all the settings?
Thanks for your help!

Using Win XP Media center edition v 5.1 Service Pack 3. Been too afraid to upgrade to Vista. Probably about time to upgrade my FW.
I searched my entire machine for that file, both by file name and by all .txt files and could not find a "Preferences" file anywhere. Here's what came up under the FW directory path:
Thanks for your help, Heathrowe!

I did discover that by clicking on the Adobe Icon on my deskt topi get an Adobe box containing "Do you want to allow changes to your computer. I click Yes and get to my computer where I can find the above mentoned attachment which I think I had previously saved. I then get the attachment whick I can print.

Any help you can give me would be appreciated. I have thought about removing Adobe and reinstalling. Maybe there is a corruption to my Adobe file.

Call Apple and make a appointment.
You have 3 months of care and up to 3 years with paid AppleCare, let them handle it and bring everything in.
Good Luck

I can't open Aperture 1.5.6 after updating to 10.6.8/Snow Leopard

I can't open Aperture 1.5.6 after updating to my mac10.6.8/Snow Leopard. What should I do. I don't want to lose all my pictures.

This may sound like I am repeating Allan Eckerts advice, but what he wrote has spelling errors that seems confusing or contradictory.

As you did not backup your photos now at least copy the Aperture Library to an external device like a Hard drive or USB.
I don't know if Aperture 2 is still available for purchase, as Apple tends to discard older software so quickly.
Aperture 3 is now the latest,
Repost in the Aperture forum, for details on how you can best upgrade your Mac 10.6.8 OS to an Aperture version that will be able to rebuild your old library.

Why I can not open aperture 3.4?

After update first mountain lion 10.8.2 and after aperture 3.4, I can not open aperture app. Can someone help?
Thanks!!!

What exactly is happening? If Aperture is crashing, when you are trying to launch it, deinstall Aperture by removing it from the Applications folder to the Trash. Then reinstall it from your original installation media (if you bought a retail version) or by downloading from the App Store, if you bought it there.

Can't open Aperture 3 all of the sudden

I am getting this error message when I try to open Aperture. I am not sure what to do but I can't gain access to my library for some reason.
There was an error opening the database for the library "/Volumes/My Backup/Aperture Library.aplibrary"
My Backup is the name of my hard drive. What does the error message mean and how can I correct this?
Thanks!

Hi Haley

After restoring files with Time Machine, I can´t open Aperture

My HD broke and I had to change it for a new one. I had copy of everything in Time Machine. I restored it with no problem, but now I every time I try to open Aperture, it quits.
Can anybody help me, please?

Thanks imigra, I tried the three options and at last I had to install it again. Now my Aperture 2.0 it´s working.

It's happened twice in the last month- I suddenly can't open my Pages documents unless I get the new version (for $20!) What is going on??!!

Some documents, but not others, that I've created/edited/printed and worked with JUST RECENTLY suddenly won't open UNLESS I get the new version of Pages (for $20!!) I just edited some of these a couple of days ago! I edited one, printed it, etc. Now I need to look at it again and it WON'T open! I "need the new version of Pages??! What if I don't want to suddenly shell out $20 to work with documents I made on the version I already have? And why do SOME documents now look different (in a new style) while others look like they always have, and function normally?

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:
