What do you do when a download will not launch?

have a macbook pro, early 2008 and tried to download free trial of scrivener writing software but when i click on it from the applications folder the symbol appears on the dock and bounces. i answer that i want to accept it but it will not launch. on a relaunch it says that the software failed to respond.

check your system specs and see if you can run it otherwise try redownloading it

  • HT204053 What do you do if your phone will not accept your card info?

    My iPhone will not llow me to change my card informaiton.

    See the not-charging topic of:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Have you tried another cable?
    Another charging source? Does iTunes see the iPod when you connect to your computer?
    Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.
    If you have a bad dock connector, Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity. You can Google for third-party places that will replace the dock connector.

  • What do you do when the download is poor?

    I purchased a song, but there is a bad spot on the song. I JUST bought it and it automatically downloaded and there is a glitch in the first couple of seconds. Is there a way to fix the file or re-download without having to pay again? What is the process for this?

  • What do I do when Mail preferences will not open for me to edit server list

    When my wife tries to send mail a message says server listed doesn't work and asks if I want to edit the server list. When we attempt to do this from the message or from the tool bar, Preferences does not open. BTW It is not grayed out. WHen I log in on the same computer, I can open preferences.

    You don't say who your mail server is and what preferences are you trying to access? Just a thought, though, try going to Mail preferences, Accounts and Account Information. Is the "use only this server" box checked? Different mail servers require different settings. Gmail, for instance, requires that box to be unchecked. Good Luck

  • IMovie 10 download will not launch

    Hello.
    My iMovie 10 dock icon just bounces without launching App? If I click a second time the screen launches but with errors, it is incomplete with a broad black column on the left hand side with no menu options. I can't do anything with it?  Using a new 27" iMac 2013 with Mavericks.  I can't see what is wrong.  It did work briefly but even then it wouldn't show any of the movies I have in iPhoto (the option was greyed out).  Re-downloaded the App today (1.9 GB taskes a while) but still no change?
    I did have problems initially with new iMac as the 'free' download of imovies and iPhoto would not work - raised a call which was resolved with redemption codes.
    Grateful for any ideas????
    Kind regards

    when wanting to open imovie 10 for some reason now it just doesn't respond anymore
    just keeps me to application not responding any suggestions ?

  • What do you do when iTunes provides the wrong album art?

    What do you do when iTunes downloads the wrong album art? I haven't found an easy way to override this or notify the iTunes store about it.
    I have gone in and deleted, and re-updated the artwork. I have also gone song by song and looked to see if more than one piece of artwork is associated. Neither fix this.
    Specific current example is the Amon Tobin album "Chaos Theory". The artwork was correct on this until just recently. Currently the artwork downloaded is for the Chaos Theory Remix album (for both the original album, and the remix album).
    Who controls this? The content publisher (e.g.-Ninja tunes)?
    Thanks

    Go into the track ot tracks en block and get info. Go to the artwork tab and delete the downloaded artwork. Google to find alternative artwork and then add it to the track(s).
