Every 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 RepliesMy 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 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.

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.Â
Not connecting any iOS device. It just automatically pops up & the first song starts playing.Â
It's not in Users to start at login.Â
I've re-installed a number of times to no effect.Â
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.Â
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.Â
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.

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 made additional space available on my drive (90GB now) and ran Disk Warrior to fix permissions and check the hard drive. Today I am still having hte problem.

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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to backup my MacBook Pro and for the first time I tried to use Time Machine on this particular computer. The issue here is that even without any external disc connected I get the same crash error every time I launch it: THE OPERATION COULD NOT BE COMPLETED. An unexpected error occured (error code -43). I thought the issue was the disc partition on my Seagate disc, but after reformatting it I get the same error over and over again. This computer was upgraded a couple of years ago and everything seemed to work out fine until I got this error. I want to backup my computer so I can migrate to a newer one, as well to service this old one.

How do I remove any application association with the F8 key? F8 is currently launching iTunes when I hit it and since I don't use iTunes on my work computer and need F8 for other functionality this is interfering with my workflow. I do not see any association with the F8 key in System Preferences > Keyboard Preference Pane > Keyboard Shortcuts. The only thing listed there is: Move focus to staus menus ^F8 I also do not see any way to remove the F8 association in any of the iTunes preferences.Â

I've set up my MB to mount several NAS volumes that I need frequent access to (my documents and photos, for example) on boot up by first connecting to the server and then adding those servers to the "Login Items" list in my account. This caused finder windows for each of these NAS volumes to "pollute" my desktop with every boot. I therefore checked the "hide" checkbox on the list . . . but that hasn't stopped them from opening.
