The application "iTunes" cannot be launched. -600

Suddenly my iTunes refuses to launch. It just sits in the dock like it is running, but no window. And if I try to Force Quit it, it remains in the dock.
If I try to launch iTunes again, it gives me an error: *The application “iTunes” cannot be launched. -600*
Not really useful.
I don't have that Intego something installed that could give this error. I tried installing the 10.5.1 update downloaded from apple.com. I repaired permissions several times. Moved all iTunes prefs out of Preferences. Renamed the iTunes folder in ~/Music. Downloaded and installed iTunes.
Still no go.
But then, just as Im writing this. I realize I have an iPod Shuffle sitting in its dock, connected to my iMac. I just tried unplugging it, and of course iTunes starts right away. Whod've thunk?
Looking through Console. I did find this:
*20/11/07 23.53.19 kernel comapple_driveriPodSBC::setPowerState(0x5da7b00, 3 -> 4) timed out after 100129 ms *
I hope this can help some others.

  • The application "Finder" cannot be launched -600

    ...caused by me uploading a 8mb stem onto my iDisk...
    This seems to happen everytime I use my iDisk...
    and while i mention it...is uploading to the iDisk really unbelievably slow? I'm on 5+Mb DSL and its soooooo slow to upload!!
    Anyone know whats going on? Is there a Finder update?

    Hello Ben:
    You might try something easy - trash the finder preference file (com.apple.finder.plist) and restart. Sometimes corrupt preference files cause strange behavior.

  • I get the message "The application "Finder" cannot be launched. -600  Read

    For the last couple of days my G5 was not shutting down, so had to hold in front power button, manual sleep sometimes refused to wake and applications failed to quit. and yesterday i got the following error.
    I get the message "The application "Finder" cannot be launched. -600
    A reboot got things working for a bit, but on opening 'TextEdit' a document that had locked up before the reboot was displayed, on trying to save the file 'TextEdit' locked up again, trying to do a 'Preview' 'Grab' of the screen worked but then locked up 'Preview'.
    So i booted into 'Safe Boot' logged in, did a virus scan using ClamXav just for piece of mind.
    I opened 'TextEdit' and the same document opened as before yet i still could not save it. So i rebooted.
    After reboot i opened 'TextEdit' and again the previous document appeared and this time i was able to save it. And so far no apps have failed to open or quit.
    My question is, i know prior to booting into 'Safe Boot' the system fixes somethings, what does it 'fix'?
    I did run the ASD (not the AHT) disk and all was ok, so thought it should be a software issue, on running TechTool Pro4 i did notice 'Finder' errors which i set to fix (just opened TechTool Pro4 and it has locked up but did 'Force Quit' unlike 'TextEdit' which has just failed to even 'Force Quit')
    On looking in on the 'Console Messages' i have seen as below:

    I have an image on a firewire caddy (which has 10.5.8 bootable on it) so i can easily erase the boot drive and image back but i want to understand what is actually happening.
    Is it worth running AppleJack 1.5 or similar?
    You advice is appreciated.

    Hi there,
    My question is, i know prior to booting into 'Safe Boot' the system fixes somethings, what does it 'fix'?
    In Tiger/10.4.x it disables Startup/Login Items, clears Font Caches, tries to repair the HD. loads Safe Drives, disables Airport & Quartz.
    In Leo/10.5 it does more, but doesn't disable Airport, which now has a Sfe Driver I presume.
    I suspect From the Console post that perhaps SAfe Boot repaired the HD, but of course that doesn't take care of any corruption done while it was muxed.
    Run Disk Utility & Verify the HD, it at least will tell us something.
    Is it worth running AppleJack 1.5 or similar?
    Assuredly, AppleJack is great & won't hurt, & will eliminate a lot of questions if not the problem.

  • When I click on the iconI get a message that the application firefox cannot be launched 10661

    I click on the icon on the dock and I get a message that says the application firefox cannot be launched 10661

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • The application "whatever" cannot be launched.  -10810  Getting this error.

    On Friday, I ran into a issue where I can't launch new programs from the dock.
    When I try to launch something, it gives me an error message. The application "Firefox" cannot be launched. -10810.
    I end up having to reboot the whole computer. Then I can start programs again.
    But after half an hour, the issue is back and I am getting the error again.
    I am typically running Mail, Safari 3.1, Parallels, newest Firefox and Adium (newest version).
    I can't really relate it to any specific single program that is causing the problems.
    What does that error message mean?
    Anyone have any ideas?
    I already installed the new firmware update today, hoping that would magically fix it. But it didn't help.
    I have all the latest apple updates for the computer installed, and Leopard.
    Help, anyone?

    I went into console, and there were hundreds of these messages:

  • "the application "iphoto" cannot be launched -10828"

    i did nothing previous to this in order for iphoto to be acting up, i have no idea what i may have done. ut this is the window that pops up everytime i try to use the application. i've downloaded the iphoto '09 support but still, nothing.
    help please!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    2. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
    Regards

  • Firefox icon has a white "no" symbol (circle with diagonal line from top left to bottom right) superimposed over it. Clicking it yields: "The application 'Firefox' cannot be launched" followed by: "-10661"

    I’m a novice and a Mac user. Don’t know computer lingo. About a week ago, while working at computer, I received repeated unsolicited messages, presumably from Firefox, to update to Firefox 4.0. I attempted to comply by clicking, but maybe clicked something wrong and now can’t open Firefox. Hope I don’t lose all my bookmarks. Advice welcome.
    Possibly unrelated - highlighting the icon then clicking “Get Info” yields “Kind: Application (Intel)”. Only mentioning this because, being an “iMac G5 / PowerMac8,2 / PowerPC G5 (3.0) / Version 10.4.11”, this computer doesn’t have Intel processors.
    Thanks

    You're welcome.

    benfrommaidenhead, were you able to solve your iTunes installation failed issue?
    I have the same problem; installed iTunes from dmg, deleted iTunes.app, attempted to reinstall. Get the same error every time.
    An interesting observation from your log file, is that both my installation and yours appear to be to an SSD?
    The three other updates in my house were to macbooks using traditional HDDs, and they had no issues.
    My problems now appear to have continued with the Mountain Lion Update v10.8.2 Combo Update...Update Failed??
    I restored my MacBook to pre 10.7, but still get the "Installation Failed"
    I am now in the process of downloading iTunes 10.6.3 and will attempt to instal it.
    Update: 10.6.3. reinstalled with no problems.....

  • The Finder Cannot Be Launched -600 error

    Hi, when Os X 10.5 freezes (everytime since I installed it), whatever application I am using freezes, and when I chosse Force Quit, nothing happens. When I choose Relaunch Finder, I get "The Finder Cannot Be Launched -600 error" and I have to power off my Mac & turn the power back on.
    Any help on how to get through 1 day with 10.5 working would be appreciated.

    Hello Ben:
    You might try something easy - trash the finder preference file (com.apple.finder.plist) and restart. Sometimes corrupt preference files cause strange behavior.

  • You cannot open the application iTunes (11.1.4) because it is not supported on this type of Mac

    After updating iTunes to 11.1.4 as suggested by automatic updates I get the message:
    "You cannot open the application iTunes because it is not supported on this type of Mac"
    Why did it let me do the update then?
    How do I undo the uodate to iTunes?
    This is on a Mac Mini running OSX 10.6.8 with 1GB mem

    What processor do you have?
    If it's a CoreDuo (as opposed to a Core2Duo), then you ave a 32 bit OS, and no... 11.1.4 won't run on a 32 bit OS.
    =Downgrading from iTunes 11 to iTunes 10.7=
    Back up your computer first, in case the wrong things happen.
    Replace the iTunes 11 application with iTunes 10.7.  I can't provide details on this since I do not have a newer computer. With mine it is very simple but I believe on newer computers iTunes has been integrated into the operating system.  On mine I just go to my applications folder and drag iTunes to the trash.  See below for possible suggestions on how to remove.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20431349
    Get iTunes 10.7.  Apple does not keep many old version up on its web site.  I always keep an iTunes installer on my archive drive so I can have access to old versions .  This one is hidden but it is on an official Apple site:
    iTunes 10.7 for OS X  http://appldnld.apple.com/iTunes10/041-7195.20120912.d3uzQ/iTunes10.7.dmg
    You will have to rescue your old iTunes library from your Previous Libraries folder and rename it iTunes Library.itl because a newer version of iTunes irreversibly updates your library file.  See:
    https://discussions.apple.com/mesage/20401436 - turingtest2 11/2012 post on rebuilding empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash from previous iTunes library file.

  • Every time I launch iTunes I get the message: "Do you want the application iTunes.app to accept incoming network connections" Any suggestions?

    every time I launch iTunes I get the message: "Do you want the application iTunes.app to accept incoming network connections" Any suggestions?

    Just fixed this on my machine, the easiest way to remove this pop-up assuming you are no longer needing that software to print is the following:
    Open Finder
    Go > Go To Folder...
    Type In: "~/Library/Application Support"
    Delete All Folders Named Kodak
    Open System Preferences
    Go to "Security & Privacy"
    Click the lock and enter your admin password
    Click the Firewall Tab
    Go to "Firewall Options..."
    Find KodakAiO
    Right-click KodakAiOBonjourAgent or equivalent (I forget the exact name)
    Click "Show in Finder"
    Go Back to a folder and delete the Kodak Folder there.
    Remove Kodak from Firewall Options by selecting it and clicking the " - " button the base of the list.
       or
    Open Finder
    Go > Go To Folder...
    Type In: "~/Library/Printers"
    Delete All Folders Named Kodak
    I'm going off memory, so If I forgot something let me know.

  • " You cannot use the application "iTunes" with this version of MAC OS X."

    I am getting the response " You cannot use the application "iTunes" with this version of MAC OS X." How do i get Itunes on my Mac. I tried to download the newest version but it won't let me do that either.

    What operating system version are you using on your Macbook?  If you are still using Tiger 10.4 the new iTunes requires Leopard (10.5) or higher.

  • The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, and is required.

    Hello,
    I cannot start iTunes. When I do, I get the following error message:
    The folder "iTunes" cannot be found or created, and is required. the default location for this folder is inside the "My Music" folder.
    I have reviewed and gone through the recommendations for this problem, including downloading the WindowsPowerToys Tweak UI. The problem is that the Tweak UI does not know that there is a My Music special folder, so Tweak UI was of no use.
    Can someone tell me what I need to do to make my Dell (Dell doesn't know either) understand that I have "My Music" folder on my computer....so it can be seen in my Tweak UI application.
    Thank you.
    Tim

    I have followed these instructions:
    If the My Music folder is in the wrong location or incorrectly assigned in the Windows registry, you may see one of the following error messages:
    * "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder."
    * "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the Music folder."
    If you see one of the above errors, follow these steps to troubleshoot this:
    1. Verify the location of your Windows XP My Music folder. The default location for this folder is
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music
    If you do not have this folder at the default location and have not moved it to another location, consider creating one inside your My Documents folder.
    2. Download and install Tweak UI from the Microsoft PowerToys website at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx Note: This utility is for Windows XP only. Please review the system requirements before installing.
    3. Once you have installed Tweak UI, open it from the Start menu.
    4. In the column on the left, click on the plus symbol next to My Computer and select Special Folders.
    5. In the right pane on the Folderlist, click My Music.
    * This is where I run into the problem. My Music does not show up in the *
    * right pane pull down set of options. *
    6. Click the Change Location button. You may see a warning message appear with precautions for changing this setting; after reviewing the message, click Yes.
    7. In the resulting window, browse for the My Music folder as described in step 1, and click OK.
    8. Reinstall or open iTunes.

  • Can't install itunes 9 in windows 7 "The folder iTunes cannot be found"

    I can not install itunes 9.0.3.15 in windows 7. Getting the error message "The folder iTunes cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the Music folder." I see a solution has already been posted for this problem, but it is specifically for Windows XP. Anyone have a solution for the problem in Windows 7?

    Doublechecking some things before proceeding, j. Are you trying to upgrade your iTunes on the PC? Or is this the very first time iTunes has been installed on the PC?
    Are you getting the error message during the install, or when trying to launch 9.0.3.15 after the install?
