Trouble launching AOL

Since installing 10.4.9, the AOL application will not open--I get the message "The application AOL has unexpectedly quit." The solution posted in a previous discussion does not seem to apply to my problem. I have tried reinstalling AOL for MacOS X from the AOL website, and I have tried trashing my previous AOL preferences and the "Data" folder. I need to access some archived mail that is not accessible from logging on via the AOL.com website. AOL "Help" cannot solve the problem. It is not a connection problem; the application quits on launch.

Welcome To Discussions sulenka!
Try the procedure here How To Manually Uninstall/Reinstall AOL, as you may have not deleted all of the necessasy files & folders.
Post if you have any additional questions. And Good Luck!

    Hi cheperrumps,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Uninstalling or reinstalling the iTunes application won't affect your music (data) -- but it's always a good idea to have a backup!
    The information below will show you how to do that and to troubleshoot your issue with iTunes:

  • HT4623 I'm having trouble launching iTunes Store on my phone since new update.

    I'm having trouble launching iTunes on iPhone 4 since new updates.

    Hello Mdimbo1,
    Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes Store after updating to iOS 7.
    The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes Store, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
    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.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    You can find the full article here:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content

    I'm having trouble launching photoshop elements 13.  I'm on a PC and I'm double clicking on where it says setup.exe, it then asks me to sign on with Adobe ID and I do that and then I just have a circle of small boxes showing on my screen.

    See if this helps any. Substitute 13 for 12 in the file path:

  • I'm having trouble launching Acrobat Pro 11 on my Mac

    I'm having trouble launching Acrobat Pro 11 on my Mac after I install it. I'm running OS 10.6 and have been successful in downloading Acrobat, but as soon as I launch it, it crashes. I'm getting the problem report "Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS) Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x0000000000000000." Has anyone else experienced this?

    Hi Kleinw,
    Are you still facing this issue.
    Please follow below mentioned steps:
    Start you Mac in Safe Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564?viewlocale=en_US
    Once you are in Safe mode, Disk repair using Disk utility: https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/repair-disk-permissions-and-repair-disk
    If the above steps didn’t help, you may try to enable root account and check the issue from there

    Let me know if that helps.

  • Where can I find the SSL function on the iPad mail - having trouble with AOL sending e-mail out

    Where can I find the SSl function on the iPad mail - I am having trouble sending out e-mails on my AOL account on the iPad - no trouble with the MacBook Pro?

    Under the line where it has the SSL button, is Authintication set to password?  and the line below that, is there a server port number?  A typical outgoing server port number is 25.

  • Does Apple mail have trouble with AOL E-mail addresses?

    When I send E-mail to an AOL E-mail address at least 50% of the time I get this annoying “Delivery Notification” failure crap messages back.
    I just copy and paste my original message and I keep sending it until I don't get that crappie message back anymore.
    Does anyone else have this problem? If so, did you figure out how to fix this problem?
    Thanks.

    I had a bit of trouble sending to AOL in the past. It seemed most often when my email addy had the word MAC in it.
    My ISP is Macace, and they would frequently get returned. If I used my throwaway yahoo account all was fine. I thought it was somehow linked to how mail.app did things so I went in and did a test via webmail. The email still got blocked.
    Do AOL not like Macs? Who knows what is going on. They have a Mac version of their software so it shouldn't be.

  • Anyone having trouble launching apps after 10.8.2 update?

    After installing the 10.8.2 update on my 15" Mid-2009 MBP, I'm unable to successfully launch many of my applications, including Adium, Chrome, System Preferences, Mail and a host of others. Some apps never present their main window; others (like Adium and Chrome) show their initial windows but seem to be unable to connect to the internet. Has anyone seen this issue?
    I checked Console and nothing seems to be obvious in the logs.
    Thanks,
    - Chris

    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. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Try the action that you're having trouble with again. Post any messages that appear in the Console window – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    PLEASE DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • Trouble launching a custom HTML5 UI in Photoshop CC

    Problem:
    I am trying to get Photoshop CC to launch custom built HTML5 UI’s.  In doing so I have hit a few roadblocks:
    Roadblocks:
    • The documentation online to install and launch HTML5 UI’s from scratch is out-of-date:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/articles/a-short-guide-to-HTML5-extensions.html
    • The supported method, using Adobe Extension Manager CC requires an internet connection, which our network does not (and will not) ever have.
    • The workaround instructions to use a request code from an internet-capable workstation are incomplete
    http://www.adobe.com/go/getactivated
    What I think I need:
    Right now I am blocked from using HTML5 UI’s.  If a rep from adobe could tell me where on my workstation to place unsigned extensions that would be a great first step, and then if they could verify that the registry work-around is still supported with Photoshop CC 2014 (15.2) that would probably unblock me.

    Adobe does not officially monitor these forums.
    How can you possibly be using CC without an Internet connection?
    If CC cannot contact the mother ship in the prescribed period, currently 30 days, the software will cease to work—or so they claim.

  • Trouble launching Illustrator

    Just purchased CC today. Every time I try to launch Illustrator, I get an error from Windows that says "windows detected an error and will close the program. It will let me know if it finds a solution". I don't know what's wrong. I have all required system requirements. I'm not a hardware tech...

    artist,
    You may try this:
    1) Uninstall and run the Cleaner Tool;
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    2) Restart the Creative Cloud application by quitting and relaunching it;
    3) Download and install again.

  • Trouble launching creative cloud apps. Subscription is activated but it shows trial expired screen.

    Hi,
    I am trying to launch creative cloud apps on 10.7.3 lion imac, but it keeps asking me to license the software, which I have already done. It even shows that subscription is active, but for some reason it keeps taking me back to the trial expired screen. I have already tried uninstallling everything and reinstalling, but that has not solved the issue. Creative Cloud seem to work just fine on my 10.6.8 macbook, but would not work on 10.7.3 iMac. Please help!!! I am so frustrated. I am paying for this and can't even launch an app. I am in the second month of this subscription. First month, everything appeared to be a trial and now it has expired. Now, when I try to license the software, it activates it for me, but it never launces the app. It takes me back to the trial screen. What should I do???

    I hit this same problem. The problem wasn't on my machine: No amount of tweaking locally would fix it, no amount of removing the apps, cleaning, and reinstalling fresh. The problem was on Adobe's servers, where my account had been tagged as being a trial rather than a paying subscription.
    The experience was tremdously frustrating, as most of the techs were worthless and wouldn't read the notes on what came before but simply threw out a random, inapplicable bugfix to try before handing it off to the next tech who would repeat the process. And there was no channel to get past them. Each time they'd tell me they were escalating the case, which became obvious as being a lie after a few weeks. No company has that many tiers of tech support. I was locked out of Illustrator for more than a month, waiting for late replies and meaningless "fixes".
    Eventually my case landed at the desk of an agent who actually cared and kept looking until she found the answer. Thank you, Sarika Behal.

  • Having trouble launching Blend on Windows 8.1 (fresh install)

    Hi all,
    I recieved my BlackBerry Passport this past Tuesday, and have been having issues with launching Blend ever since.
    My BlackBerry Passport is running the latest official version: 10.3.0.908
    I'm running Windows 8.1 64-bit on my Desktop
    Installed Blend "BlackBerryDesktopSofware_bundle116.exe"
    Passport is fully recognizable on BlackBerry Link.
    Issue: Whenever I double click the BlackBerry Blend icon on my Desktop, it never loads.
    Only error message i've received:  "PeerManager.exe" was missing, but I have not been able to recreate this problem since reinstalling Blend.
    I've tried disabling my anti-virus (Kaspersky).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Alvin

    2006-05-23 20:41:04 -0700: Installed "QuickTime" (7.1)
    2006-05-23 20:41:08 -0700: Installed "Front Row Update" (1.2.2)
    2006-05-23 20:41:12 -0700: Installed "iDVD Update" (6.0.2)
    2006-05-23 20:42:42 -0700: Installed "iWeb Update" (1.1)
    2006-05-23 20:43:04 -0700: Installed "iPhoto Update" (6.0.3)
    2006-05-23 20:43:10 -0700: Installed "iMovie HD Update" (6.0.2)
    2006-05-23 20:43:15 -0700: Installed "Apple Keyboard Update" (1.0)
    2006-05-23 20:43:18 -0700: Installed "iMac SMC Firmware Update" (1.0)
    2006-05-23 20:43:33 -0700: Installed "Keynote Update" (3.0.1v2)
    2006-05-23 20:43:40 -0700: Installed "Pages Update" (2.0.1v2)
    2006-05-23 20:44:36 -0700: Installed "Security Update 2006-003 (Intel)" (1.0)
    Now I can no longer open and sign onto AOL. When I go to open the program, it stops responding before it even gets to the sign on screen. I have tried shutting down & restarting my computer several times to no avail. Since it was working before I installed these updates, I'm guessing one of them is screwing with my AOL. What can I do?
    P.S. I'm not very experienced on the Mac. Please keep this in mind when giving me instructions. Thanks in advance
    Intel iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hi azsumrg1rl! And Welcome To Discussions!
    Did you Repair Permissions after the updates were installed?
    I don't know if that will help with this particular problem, but it is a good idea to do it anyway.
    Before you reinstall AOL, try this.
    Navigate to
    HD > Users > Your Home > Library > Preferences.
    Put the America Online/AOL folder in the trash.
    Empty the trash, and restart the iMac.
    A new folder will be created the next time you successfully load AOL, but you will have to reset the AOL Preferences.
    See if AOL will load now. If it does, open AOL Preferences, and reset the configurations.
    If that doesn't work, there are some other things to try.
    Good Luck!
