I have just upgraded Aperture 1.5.x to Aperture 2.1.2.
The app does not launch! According to mac the reason is :
Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x0060110e
I have wiped 1.5 using App Zapper and reloaded from scratch.
How do I repair my Aperture Library when I hold down the command and option keys and double click the library in Finder? iPhoto opens, Aperture does not.
When I hold down the command and option keys and click on Aperture in my dock, I get the Aperture repair screen. However, selecting REPAIR Database spawns the following screen:
Info:
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9), 21.5 Inch, Mid 2011
I have Max OS X 10.8.5 on a Late 2009 iMac with 12 gb of RAM.
Repeatedly when I try to reopen Aperture 3 after closing it (and the prior close is a normal close without issue), I find aperture never loads. The icon in the tray says it's running but the window never opens.
The only thing I can do is Force Quit. Then if I'm lucky, I can open it again using the troubleshooting key combination and can select to repair database or repair permissions, and it will load.
This basically makes me never want to close it but sometimes it would be nice to do so. I'm also very worried about my library getting hammered and unusable eventually.
I have sent the reports to Apple but I'm not sure if anything will come of that.
The library size is 442 gb.
I noticed that Aperture 3 is priced really, REALLY low on the Mac App Store. So I made the decision to buy it. But... I already have Aperture 2 installed. So what happens when I buy Aperture 3? Does it recognize that I have Aperture 2 installed, and upgrade it, or will it install Aperture 3 alongside Aperture 2?

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy MBP recently had a bunch of problems with the logic board and speakers. I brought it into the Apple Store (on Monday) and they gave me the option of them sending it into a repair center, or them repairing it locally in store. I requested that they sent out just because I was curious to see how long it would take. To my surprise, my MBP arrived, fixed and as good as new on my doorstep today. That's amazingly fast for sending it out to a offsite repair center. The repair center is in Philadelphia. I live in Maine. You do the math. When I've had things repaired locally in the Apple Store it's taken weeks to repair instead of days because they need to order the parts.
Anyways, the point of this thread was to suggest to people that they choose the offsite repair option. It's amazingly fast, and it saved me a trip to the Apple Store (they shipped my MBP directly to my house).
I took my late 2007 macbook in because the case was cracked. I read that this was a known issue and they would repair for free.(I had no warranty) also my battery was expanding and bloated, so much that it will no longer fit in my comp.
When I took it in, the tech said that my bottom case was cracked and he said that wasn't part of the known issue. He said it was caused by accidental damage (it was cracked clean through, so much so that it could be physically separated from the comp.(I informed him that the comp had never been dropped or damaged in anyway, he apparently didn't believe me but said he would see what he could do.
Anyway, he said he could fix the top case ( but they would not fix the bottom case)and give me a new battery although he had never seen a battery with the problem that mine had. He said it was probably expanded cells. I agreed to that as something is better than nothing but then, I asked him if the battery expanding could have caused the bottom case to crack since it was cracked near the battery compartment but on the side of the comp. After he tinkered around for a bit with the battery and the cracked part, he said he wasn't sure but he would send it in for repairs and I would not be charged.
First he said he would quote me a repair price and I told him that I had no intentions of paying for anything. After several instances of him running to the back to talk to people, he agreed to send it in. On the repair form it is listed as tier 4 accidental damage and I know that the tier 4 comes with a hefty charge for repair. Anyway, I am out of town and my comp is scheduled to be returned to me today. I dropped it off at the apple store on the 30th, it was received by the repair center on the 1st, repaired today( the second) and shipped back to me today and scheduled to be delivered today as well.
I was trying to find out if they actually repaired the bottom case or not as I will not be home to receive my comp until next week sometime. The repair form also said call if additional repairs are needed to quote a price. I have not received any calls at this number and do not know if they left any messages on my home phone. The repair turnaround seems rather quick and I was just wondering if they actually repaired it or sent in back in the same condition.
Apple support has no details of the actual repair just the time it was received, repaired and sent back to me. Also will they just leave it outside because no one is home to receive it?
Every-time I repair permissions using the disk utility it says that the permissions are repaired, but then I click to verify permissions and it is all as it was before... What can I do?

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.7.3)
My girlfriend upgraded her computer night before last and it stopped working. It's now turning on but after about 30 seconds the application launcher stops working as does finder. I ran disk utility (can open it quickly) but the only diference it's made is that an error is coming up as below.
View 9 Replies View RelatedEvery time I click to open it, it just says that the program quit unexpectedly. A few months ago, it opened basically flawlessly. An error would pop up saying No AGP card, but I would just hit esc and the program would open right up.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSeveral times a day, Entourage will launch by itself. It's quite annoying. I haven't noticed a pattern either. I do have My Day running all the time (so I don't have to look at the huge Entourage!) and I have alerts on. Everything in iCal is off and I don't have Mobile Me. I tried turning off everything in Entourage (save the Office daemon which I use for Word, etc.) and using iCal but it still launched by itself. I use Mail, not Outlook.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm afraid I'm new to Mac's and I've not had any luck finding what I'm after using the search function. My wife's macbook has recently completed a download and install of the latest Safari (4) and now every time we connect to the net it stays connected for about 10 seconds and then crashes. I receive a message window saying safari quit unexpectedly and offers me options to close, report or reopen safari. I'm useless at diagnosing problems.

Every morning Itunes launches and starts playing music at 8am and there is no indication that there is another application launching it. I've looked in widgets? that didn't work and I cannot seem to find where the problem is so I can fix it. Also this thing, whatever it is is intefering with my computer for instance I cannot rotate with cmd+tab, through the open applications anymore.
So my IMac running 10.6.3 has developed a bit of a problem. When a launch certain apps, the icon just bounces and the app never launches. I end up having to force quite and restart to get the app to work. Other apps freeze up (sarfari and chrome) and I have force quit and restart. then there is VLC which launches plays media then freezes. All of these are solved by restarts. Seems if i let the machine fall asleep, then all these bugs resurface. My first solution was to create a new user and delete the old one as my "backup" username seemed to work fine. this did indeed solve many of my problems but now different apps have developed bugs. Should I just reinstall the OS?

I double-click on the iTunes icon on my desktop. I get the hourglass for a second, but then nothing happens. I can do this as many times as I like and the program will not launch.
Checking Task Manager, I see the iTunes process is running as is the iTunes helper. I kill both, then try to launch iTunes - same thing. Nothing.
Recently, I'm finding Airport Utility is launching itself. I log into my Mac Pro in the morning and Airport Utility is open.
Mac Pro Early 2008
Lion 10.7.4
Airport Utility v 6.0
iMac OSX 10.9.5, iTunes v 12.01.1.26
About 4 days ago, iTunes started launching on its own after my iMac has been sitting idle for a while. It doesn't start playing music, it just starts up the main screen. I didn't install any plug-ins or any other software prior to this happening.
I can't stop iTunes 11.2.2 from continuously launching automatically in OS X 10.8.5.
Not connecting any iOS device. It just automatically pops up & the first song starts playing.
It's not in Users to start at login.
I've re-installed a number of times to no effect.
It's incredibly annoying, especially at work - I'm forced to keep my volume off, so then iTunes ends me a warning notification that my volume is off.
Never happened before, going back over a decade. Just started when I "upgraded" to 11.2.2 from 10.x-something. Bad decision on my part.
I upgraded to Snow Leopard and now it keeps launching Mail. I am getting along fine with Entourage so I don't want to run Mail. How do I turn this off so Mail doesn't keep popping up and asking me to set up an account?

It works fine under other users, but not my user account. It also works fine when I launch my back up system on the other hard drive. I have tried reinstalling Safari and deleting preference files, but haven't been able to get Safari to launch.

Well now I can't play stagecraft 2 (like it ran good anyway), and get get on steam (like it ran good anyway). When trying to login to steam it prompts me that steam needs to self-update before launching. So I enter my name / password and nothing happens. I try to open vuze, a torrent program, doesn't even open. Safari works. What did I do? It seems it's not reading the admin permissions correctly. ITunes won't open either

Some months back iTunes began launching itself whenever I booted my Mac, something it had never done previously. Initially I just disabled it by removing components from prefs or other locations in /Library or using AppDelete. Is there a way to stop the self-launching without removing components that only make it harder to use when it has to be reinstalled from scratch. I just want it to be a normal app I click on when "I" want it to open.
