Intel Mac :: New Software Update - Now Applications Quitting?

Mar 24, 2012

this is my first time posting and I hope someone can help me.  Last night my machine routinely installed new software and now tonight when I have tried to use some applications and also one of my games which I have been using regularly for about a year now I have got the following messages This application quit unexpectedly and the other said Assertion failed: is Loaded. I am wondering whether it is anything to do with the software update installed last night.  I know this happened to me once before and it was something to do with the update and I was told to download something else which cancelled out what was previously installed and everything started working perfectly again.

IMac (Intel) :: Some Of Applications Keep Quitting Unexpectedly?

Jun 22, 2014

Random applications like Steam, Safari, or even games I've bought close unexpectedly at different times. Safari will close if I try to watch videos occasionally; Steam will close if I try to click on random games; and some games won't even launch, it will still say they "quit" unexpectedly.

OS X :: Everything Is Quitting Unexpectedly After Update?

Jun 30, 2010

This is my first time posting here, and I don't really like signing up to forums but this is a crisis. My problem is, I cannot open any application whatsoever. I can only open up Firefox, but everything else just jumps around the dock for a second and the error message "the application ______ quit unexpectedly". So if you try to open it again, it just bounces around the dock and the error message appears again. I've uninstalled the apps, and installed them again...NOTHING.

This only started happening after I updated to the Security Update 2010-004 (1.0). I know for sure that's the culprit, but I don't know what to do. It's putting me through so much stress, I almost feel like crying. The worst part is, when I click system update, the system update itself jumps around the dock and disappears to only have that "the application _____ quit unexpectedly".

Intel Mac :: Programs Quitting Unexpectedly Or Will Not Open

Mar 29, 2012

This week I have several programs that are quitting unexpectedly, or will not open all of a sudden. Photoshop CS, office 2004, and even the Appleworks programs. They all refuse to open. I uninstalled PS and the office products, and then tried to reinstall and couldn't even do that from the install disk. I did do a disk repair scan, but it said there was nothing wrong with the disk. And I'm getting some SymSecondary launch(whatever that is) failure as well.

MacBook Air :: Slow Quitting Of Applications?

Dec 16, 2010

I have a 13" macbook air ultimate and often when quitting apps it seems the system stalls or hangs for a while (not long, but noticeable. imagine counting 3 seconds after pressing Command+Q or the quit button before the window finally disappears). It is starting to get to the point where it is frustrating and just plain irritating.

Occasionally after issuing the quit command, the spinning beachball appears which I have NEVER, EVER seen on my macbook air for any other task I have done on it. (albeit I am a fairly lightweight user) Makes me wonder what is so taxing about quitting an app on my macbook air which doesn't flinch when others are editing photos in photoshop on it.

This is also, my first mac and so am not completely sure what is the norm for OS X behaviours.

Applications :: IDVD Keeps Quitting During Video Encoding?

Sep 19, 2006

I've been trying for a few days now to get iDVD to save a disk image to my computer hard drive (since my Superdrive isn't here yet), but every time it'll crash at some random part of the encoding. The last time I tried it crashed within a few seconds, but last time it had encoded one of the three videos in my project before it crashed. It just "unexpectedly quits".

Hardware :: Imac G5 Applications Quitting And Kernel Panics?

Apr 14, 2009

I purchased an imac g5 on ebay about 2 months ago. She said it's an older computer that is in good working condition except it may need restarted a few times every now and then. Everything worked fine for the first few weeks.. but now when I try to power it up it makes a loud crackling noise and freezes. After about 5 or 6 times of restarting it I can finally get it to start up correctly. But then my applications quit unexpectedly all the time.. especially safari.. and illustrator and indesign a lot too. I ran the extended hardware test and it fails on the memory.

Software :: Mac Leopard Crashes After Force Quitting Applications?

Sep 16, 2008

Where are the up dates for Leopard? Why Does my brand new Mac Pro crash daily? Why does Apple release software that is not stable? How do I fix this problem of leopard constantly crashing after I force quit an application? I'm losing $1000's because of this stupid faulty system. Who's up for a class action lawsuit? This is not fair to consumers who spend good hard earned money on a new computer only to get a faulty Operating system that runs worse than windows. Screw you steve jobbs. This needs to get taken care of now and Apple doesn't offer any outlets. This seems like a planned faulty release and Apple needs to fix it or give us our money back. I need at least 2000 people to follow in a class action law suit.

My Office 2008 apps (Word / Excel) take forever to quit. When I quit the app, the documents are closed quickly, but then the app stays around for a minute or so, unresponsive, enough to cancel a logout. If I quit the app and wait long enough, it finally quits.

OS X :: Shutting Down And Force Quitting

May 14, 2009

Having these main problems (which I'm sure many have witnessed using Leopard):
(I have a desktop imac (intel core duo 2.66).)

1 The machine often refuses to shut down (or restart) and I get that black veil slide down the screen following the "you need to restart your computer..." message
2. The machine refuses to shut down and just stays on the desktop image with the black spinning wheel spinning endlessly.
3. I'm getting problems with applications refusing to quit (even when using opt-cmd-escape) . even when the computer "acknowledges" that the ap has quit, the icon is still active in the dock underneath.

OS X :: Mac Has Been Quitting Unexpectedly, And Have No Idea?

Jul 7, 2009

I'm new to the forums, and if I am honest, I have only signed up because I am seriously starting to panic about the health of my Mac Book. Recently Mac OS X has been quitting unexpectedly, and I have no idea why. It just seems to happen randomly while I am surfing the internet, and it has only started happening since I bought my USB mobile internet dongle. What could be causing the problem? Do you think it is anything serious?

Software :: Mac Os.x Keeps Quitting Unexpectedly?

Mar 28, 2009

Having a bit of a problem with my mac was hoping someone could help me. Have a mac book with os.x 10.5.6 but every time I close over my mac and reopen it a black screen appears with the power symbol in grey saying that mac os.x has quit unexpectedly and for me to either hold down the power button for the restart or switch it off. It's very irritating cause of the annoyance of having to restart the whole computer every time I close it over. Has anyone any solutions or suggestions?

OS X :: Running / Quitting Finder And IDefrag

Oct 14, 2009

One of the first things I did when I got my new MBP was to input the command that granted a 'quit' option for Finder, and since then, I've been keeping Finder quit / closed pretty much all the time. This is in part to free up what little RAM it uses (I know it's next to nothing, but it seems pointless to use even that to keep permanently open an application that's used less than 2% of the time) but mostly because I simply cannot stand keeping applications running if I'm not actively using them. Having tried to look this up, I've come across a wide variety of different thoughts on the subject, so I was hoping for something a little more clear-cut. I've read advice stating that Finder is just another app and that quitting it does no harm... and I've also read advice that insists it's part of the fundamental workings of the OS.... so what I'm hoping for is some kind of definitive answer as to whether it's likely to damage Snow Leopard at all if I continue to keep Finder quit / closed, or whether it really is necessary to keep it running the whole time?

Unrelated, but I'm hoping just as relevant to this forum as the other question... I have the demo version of iDefrag, simply to check the level of fragmentation on my files / free space, and I'm more than a little confused by the results it's showing. The 'statistics' tab show 0.1% fragmentation of files and 0.3% fragmentation of data forks (which is obviously insignificant), but the 'layout' tab shows well over half of my used space as red (which, according to the key, translates as 'fragmented'). The highest percentage of fragmentation on any part of my system, according to the 'statistics' tab, is in my free space, but even that's only at 1.8%, so wouldn't account for such a large chunk of neon red on the 'layout' tab, and certainly not one right in the middle of my used space.

So my question is whether there's a logical explanation for what seems to be two completely conflicting pieces of information, whether I'm just being an ex-Windows moron (I've only been a Mac user for a couple of weeks, so I'm still way at the bottom of the learning curve and very much still adapting to the differences), or whether there really is a conflict there that shouldn't be. Additionally, is there a means of doing something about that free space fragmentation without running a complete system defrag on the perfectly fine state of my files? I only ask because (though it's only 1.8% at the moment) what research I've done on the subject, while it makes the repeated point that Mac OS X defrags small files on its own, also seems to imply that it doesn't do anything to defrag free space, so I'm led to assume (possibly wrongly, but that's why I'm asking) that without third-party interference, that 1.8% isn't going to be defragmented on its own and will just end up getting bigger over time.

Software :: Idvd 6.0.4 Quitting Unexpectedly?

Mar 10, 2009

I have been using iDVD V6.0.4 for a couple of years now and all of a sudden it won't open. I have tried opening every movie I have made with it with the same results.I have tried all of the recommendations in the help area but still get the same message.My question is this: would reinstalling only the software from the installation disk possibly solve this problem. I don't want to cause other problems with my mac by doing this.

Software :: Programs Are Quitting On Me Whenever It Seems Too Much For The Ram To Handle?

Feb 27, 2010

so basically programs are quitting on me whenever it seems too much for the ram to handle, not sure if thats the case but certain webpages and programs work but when i go to craigslist or other sites, it lags while its thinking and then quits. also dashboard client quits every time i open it. when i watch videos at a completely unprompted time the video will just pause and the spinning coloured wheel will pop up and it will basically be frozen for about 30 seconds, this happens every 30min or so.

a week ago i had a problem where this lag occurred then eventually i could not load/start the mac at all but after very helpful tips from your techs i reinstalled osx while archiving all my files but there is still a definate issue.this is the link to that question if at all helpful[URL]have also freed up some HD space, i have over 30 gb's free, and before the dashboard crashes, my istat widget tells me i have around 2.5-3 gb's free of RAM so im not too sure what the problem is, maybe i should just wipe everything and start fresh? i dont really want to do this so if anyone has an idea, i would love to hear from you.
