Q: APP store,Mail,QT,Preview etc quit every time I try to open them
A few weeks ago i created a new account for the other half on my iMac. At the time we had problems with permissions etc and fixed all of that.. It has been working fine but in the last few days the original (admin) account has stopped working properly.
App store, mail, quick time all crash instantly.
Safari is opening but not functioning properly... pages not loading fully, hyper links not present, mouse functions not working etc.
Everything works fine on the new account still so i know its related to the user ID.
I have...
- repaired permissions and discs
- re-installed OS 3 times -
- I have not been able to let it finish on the load screen (with the apple logo) after the final re-start as it kept getting stuck at approx half way each time for hours. first time i killed it it came up after restart saying it was finishing the installation and all finished fine.
- I have tried setting the admin rights against the other account for the **** of it and removing from the other one...
BUT I am still where i started
sample error message below - it appears to all centre around the 'BAD INSTRUCTION" error and issues with sandboxed apps
....Help
