certain keys not working on High Sierra for one specific user account My wife's 2011 MPB (MacBookPro8,1) started getting weird last week: the trackpad was behaving erratically and certain keys weren't working. Everything worked fine with an external keyboard/mouse, so we assumed this was all mechanical and went through tons of steps we found for cleaning, etc., but nothing worked. Luckily, I had an identical model laptop on hand so I put her hard drive into it and we were shocked to find the keyboard problems remained (though trackpad seems fine). The keys not working are 789 uio jkl m. Notice how they're all the right side of the keyboard, pretty much lined up vertically with each other, and always sequences of adjacent keys, except for on the bottom row where the comma between the m and the . works. The kicker is, these keys work fine on other user accounts. Something's gone corrupt in the main user account on this machine and I'm not finding good articles on how to repair that. Other details: problem persists in safe mode I've run First Aid in Disk Utility, no effect Tried removing the com.apple.keyboardtype.plist Went into Keyboard preferences and remove a non-US keyboard profile option that had been set up (but never selected apparently) I'm currently following some directions I found on other sites to re-apply Read/Write privileges to her entire user folder fro the Get Info/Sharing & permissions section, then run diskutil resetUserPermissions / `id -u` ...but open to other things to try next if this doesn't work.

"The application "[name of app]" can't be opened" Dear Apple community, I'm hoping for the input of some of you advanced users regarding a set of issues I am facing. I suspect they all have a common denominator but I couldn't troubleshoot nor figure this out yet. A) Series of events Screen of macbook turned black. Probably a GUI crash as sound feedback from keys was still audible A force restart was initiated Reboot was unsuccessful. Error: Black screen with flashing question mark. Reset of NVRAM was initiated which solved the issue (https://support.apple.com/en-is/HT204323) Second reboot sequence was successful. Restoring prior state did not fully succeed i.e. some apps re-opened, some didn't. Clicking on an app like the TextEdit.app did however restored unsaved documents A set of issues described hereafter keep persisting B) Issues A good amount of the installed apps cannot be launched - e.g. all browsers except one, VLC, WhatsApp, OnlyOffice to cite known apps Either the app opens and closes immediately or macOS displays the following error "The application "[name of the app]" can't be opened." and followed by a number like 1 or 10 A looked in the Console.app shows also a constant crashing (in a loop) of 3 process. The CrashReporter process is as a consequence using around 20% of CPU resources. I had to disabled the CrashReporter daemon. Processes crashing: itunescloudd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/iTunesCloud.framework/Support/itunescloudd homed /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/HomeKitDaemon.framework/Support/homed studentd /usr/libexec/studentd Updating to Big Sur v.11.5.2 also keeps failing. I was hoping for an update to amend these issues: Updating via Safe Mode also fails, same via the terminal Error Domain=SUMacControllerError Code=7740 "[SUMacControllerErrorPrepareFailed=7740] Failed to perform Prepare operation [MobileSoftwareUpdateErrorDomain(MSU):MSU_ERR_FILESYSTEM_DOESNT_VERIFY(3)_1_MobileSoftwareUpdateBOMErrorDomain:1|FullReplacementRequired|]" UserInfo={SUMacControllerErrorIndicationsSummary=|FullReplacementRequired|, SUMacControllerErrorIndicationsMask=2, SUMacControllerErrorIndicationsDescription=-> Full replacement is required [as opposed to incremental patch]., NSUnderlyingError=0x7fe0ce211b80 {Error Domain=MobileSoftwareUpdateErrorDomain Code=3 "'./System/Library/dyld/dyld_shared_cache_x86_64h' did not verify and is not on the exception list."

Big Sur v.11.4 Disk usage at 60% capacity. 16GB of ram The computer is only used for work. Very few processes launched at start-up (AV, firewall) I would prefer avoiding doing a fresh install and recover from a Time Machine snapshot. I'm not sure about the implications of using the last Time Machine snapshot which was done with the described issued persisting. I would need to use the second or third last backup which would not be advisable. Is there a way to obtain a link for a manual download of update packages 11.5 or 11.5.1 or even the current version? Thanks for reading the entire thread and for any suggestions you may have.

Numbers, Pages, and Keynote crash immediately on launch (2020 M1 Mac Mini) Just got a brand new M1 Mac Mini (2020) today. I opted for a clean install and did not restore from Time Machine. To my surprise, I'm experiencing a nearly immediate crash on launch for Keynote, Pages, and Numbers. If starting by clicking on the application, I get as far as the document select screen. If starting by opening an existing document, I'll see a brief glimpse of the document before the crash. All other apps seem to work normally (so far), from other Apple apps like GarageBand and iMovie, to heavier stuff like Steam and Blender. The crash appears to be specific to these applications, with no flashing screen or other signs of hardware trouble. Remedies I have tried, to no avail: Boot into Safe Mode (same behavior) Delete (including the relevant contents of ~/Library/Containers/ for each app) and reinstall each app from the App Store Font Book > Restore Standard Fonts Unmount external drives before app launch A representative crash log: Process: Numbers [1389] Path: /Applications/Numbers.app/Contents/MacOS/Numbers Identifier: com.apple.iWork.Numbers Version: 11.1 (7031.0.102) Build Info: Numbers-7031000102000000~2 (1A104) App Item ID: 409203825 App External ID: 842170571 Code Type: ARM-64 (Native) Parent Process: ???
