Text edit app not working after Secupdate 007

Pismo running 10.3.9 showing issues with textedit application which worked fine prior to update.
When attempting to open an existing .txt file the beach ball spins for awhile and then does nothing. Finder window stays in front. When running through the dock, it shows textedit open, but textedit will not appear in menu bar.
I thought it might just be prior documents. After force quitting, I can open text edit app on its own with a new page showing. I can type in it, but when I attempt to save, the same issue shows. It just hangs.
Ran applejack and
I trashed textedit.plist thinking corrupted, but to no avail.
Any ideas on how to get this going?
Thanks!

Hanuman,
If you have cleaned all the possible cache files with AppleJack (plus run the other functions), one possible fix for problems that develop after a Security Update or OSX version update is to download/install the Mac OS X 10.3.9 Combo Update on top of your installed 10.3.9.
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxcombinedupdate1039.html
If you don't have another User account, create one named 'Test' if you wish, then log into the 'Test' account. If TextEdit works normally, then you know your problem lies in your Home account. A quick and dirty test for solving some problems in your Home account is to go to your Home account <yourusername>/Library and drag the Preferences folder to the desktop, then log out/in to your Home account and see if the problem is resolved. If corrected, the problem lies in the Preferences folder on the desktop. Most prefs will be re-created as you use the computer, but save the old Preferences folder in the event there is one or more pref that you want to stick back in the new Prefs folder.

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
    Best Regards

  • Many apps not working after upgrade

    I have a lot of apps not working after upgrade even apple's remote, splash id etc... Anyone else or is it just me?

    I had trouble with MPR, but since it's free, I just deleted it and reloaded it directly from the App store onto the phone. It had an upgrade, too, that must have clashed with the 2.2 upgrade. Once I did the download, it was fine.

  • Camera App not working after update to iOS 7.1.1 on iPhone4

    Hi Guys,
    I have recently downloaded iOS7.1.1 ipsw from the apple website for the correct version of my iphone4 [GSM] and updated my phone.
    The camera app is now not responsing at all and i dont even see a picture in the camera app. I tried the update again and found that the problem is still evident.
    Please let me know if we share the same problem and also any solution if you come across.
    Regards,
    Sheikh M

    Updating to iOS 7.1.2 doesnt solving problem at all, even my front camera also begin not working after I did that. Everything's OK when I using rear cam, but just freeze and blurred on screen while switched to the front cam. And have to resetting to go back to rear cam. My iPhone4's camera itself, rear and front, are in good performance before. And I've tried anything such as reset, hard reset, restoring, setting up as new device, etc, without any result since then. If some people say it was about hardware issued, I thing so weird because too many same hardware problems coincident happened at the same moment. So I just only hope the Apple will listening and solving all problems wisely. Thanks b4.

  • My Verizon app not working after iOS 7 update

    I have an iphone 4s.  After I upgraded to ios 7, the my verizon app stopped working.  Today, the app got an update in the app store to version 3.6.0.  I installed the update, but it still does not work.  When I run it, it spins the circle dots for a while and comes back with "Error: A communication error has occured [sic]. Please ensure Internet connection and try again."  And it has a "Reload App" button, which I press, and it does the same thing.  This happens whether I'm on wifi or 3g.  Several times I've tried rebooting the phone, deleting and reinstalling the my verizon app, but it still doesn't work.  Does anyone else have this problem?  How did you solve it?  Thanks.

    I did the network reset, but that didn't help.  FYI if you're thinking of resetting network settings, the only negative side-effect is that the phone forgets all of its wifi networks.
    I did a restore from backup via iTunes, and that didn't help either.
    I've had a couple other issues with iOS 7, and what I did was reset the firmware via iTunes but I didn't restore from backup.  Now My Verizon works.  The reason I did this drastic step was because my Safari was messed up in iOS 7 in another way, and restoring from backup didn't help that either, but I had a hunch that getting Safari fixed would fix My Verizon.  (I can't know for sure if I was right about that.)
    Here's the thing:  Apps like My Verizon that really just load web pages use Safari's settings for the web. So I would try this if I were still stuck with My Verizon not working: Go into Safari settings, and clear cookies and history and cache data, and make sure the "Block Cookies" setting is set to either "Never" or "From third parties and advertisers."  Then reboot your phone for good measure, and try My Verizon again.

  • Peep App-Not working after update

    I just installed the most recent update to the droid incredible. After the download, the peep app is not working. After entering my user name and password, it says invalid. I have seen on other messages boards this is a common problem with the peep app after installing this update.
    I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and found away to get peep to work.
    Thanks!

    Problems with Twitter working with peep. Use an app from the market instead.

  • Default Email app not working after update on 5/3 on S4. It checks mail but never downloads anything. Last updated screen stuck on date and time just before update

    After the last update, the default email app is not working as expected. It can send email but when it checks email, it never downloads any new messages. The last updated display at the top of the screen shows that the last successful update was on 5/3 just before the update took place. I will probably just download an email app and can this one but thought I would ask in case there is an easy fix.

    On my S4, a little message "Master sync turned off" blinks at the bottom of the email app when I tried to manually sync.
    On another thread, I discovered that you have to go into the settings toggle screen (swipe down from the top, hit the little four-square icon in the upper-right) and find "Sync".  That has to be turned back on.  For whatever reason, it was off on my phone after NC5 installed, and the email program needs it to be on.  Was it always there?  I don't know.
    There is a separate sync setting that you can change inside the email app for each account... but they all cease functioning if the "Sync" is off.  So make sure the main "Sync" is on, and maybe that will restore your email function.  Good luck!

  • Apps not working after reset

    I had to reset my iphone and after resetting it, holding down the power and home keys until the apple showed up none of my apps will work. The app screen will come up for a second or two and then it switches back to my home screen. Any remedies for this?

    If only 3 apps, try deleting and re-installing the apps first.
    Restoring your iPhone with iTunes is selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences.
    Restoring completely erases your iPhone followed by re-installing the firmware. After the firmware is re-installed, you will be prompted to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. There is another option - restore as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.
    Your iPhone's backup includes data such as most iPhone settings, email account settings, contact info, SMS messages, notes, recent calls, call favorites, photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll, and 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app.
    Your iPhone's backup is updated if needed as the first step during the sync process.
    Before restoring an iPhone with iTunes, it is a good idea to import the photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll - as with any other digital camera. Not a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for these photos, and contact info is designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer - so also not a good idea to depend on your iPhone's backup alone for contact info.
    After an iPhone is restored from the backup or as a new iPhone or not from the backup, this must be followed by a sync.
    Before restoring an iPhone, sync your iPhone immediately before doing so to update your iPhone's backup if needed.

  • Mail app not working after upgrading to Windows 10

    Hi The mail app is no longer working after I updated to Windows 10. When I open the app I can see the folders and the list o emails, but I can't do anything. It doesn't matter what I click on, nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this? Kind regards Joey

    one more thing. I was not able to download cleanup tool/online scanner too. but may be it has something to do with my internet bandwidth. and other strange thing i observed is that before restart i was not even able to turn off all security features. but after restart that problem seems to be corrected.

  • Phone and Contacts APP not working after the upgrade 4.01 from 4.0

    Dear all
    after the upgrade to 4.01 my iphone stop to operate the phone and the contacts app
    when i open phone or contacts the app close(crash) after 1 sec.
    When i connect to the mac i have the following message from itunes:
    "iTunes could not sync to the iPhone"Christos" because contacts are being synced over-the-air."
    Trying to open and change the settings at: mail, contacts, calendar but also crash
    Please help
    Thanks for your support

    This happened to me after I upgraded to 4.0. While the iPhone update offers some great new features it has really done a number on some very basic functions and overall operation.
    I am no longer able to use the contacts app to place calls. I can pull up my contact list but when I select an individual contact, the phone seems to freeze for a second and then crashes. (It might be worth mentioning that I use Exchange to sync my contacts.) While the contacts are all on the phone, I can't access actual contact information for each individual.
    I'm also experiencing random freezes, touchscreen delays, etc.
    I can deal with some minor bugs but not being able to use your contacts to place calls is a huge problem.
