After downloading OS X Mavericks, I can now no longer access any of Apple Applications

After downloading OS X Mavericks, I can now no longer access any of Apple Applications that need internet access such as Safari, Itunes Store, App Store, and Mail. Google Chrome works just fine but I need to be able to access these other apps. When I open Safari, part of the loading bar will loard then stop. The Itunes Store just says "Itunes Store". The App Store just says has the apps logo. None of my new mail will load. What can I do to solve this problem? Google Chrome works just fine but none of my Apple applications work any longer. I have a 2009 Macbook which was on the approved list of computers that could support Mavericks.

MacBook, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

Same issue, I'm thinking of just reverting back to my last backup until they get the bugs out.

It it were a bug, then everyone woud be experiencing it. What third party Apps are you running? Anti-Virus? Little Snitch? MacKeeper or anything similar?

Looks like a bug, because like me more people are experiencing it. Can't even open homework or use a USB drive to move the files to another computer.

NO ACCESS!

I tried safe boot and it doesn't work. Just makes my computer very slow. I do not have any third party apps running like the ones previously suggested.

I have a Genius Bar appointment on Saturday if we cannot solve the problem by then. If it is not solved by then, I will let everyone know what the person says at the Mac store.

Hi,

In System Preferences > Users and Groups can you create a New Mac User Account ?

Log out of your current everyday account and try the app in the new account.

Also check System Preferences > Internet Accounts are allowing the correct apps for the Apple IDs you might use with them.

That didn't work either. The tech supervisor or whatever on Apple last night said it will take a few days that an Engineer had to look at the problem even after an onscreen live session where he was on my Mac. Depressing. Set up a guest account. That will let you use some things.
