Apple - eeeeeeeeeeeeesh.
May. 7th, 2011 11:25 pmI still work on Apples/Macs, but I haven't seen this issue.
Volleyball iMac G4 System 10.4.11 ... a few programs launch, Office, AppleWork, Calculator.... but MOST suddenly do not work.
System Preferences, TextEdit, Disk Utilities, most everything starts, then quits a few seconds later.
I've done all the usual fixes, PeriodicWeeklyMonthlyDaily, tried a variety of individual program permission fixes, and command line permission overhaul via diskutil repairPermissions / (since the GUI app won't work)...
I've also tried the major overhaul suite of AppleJack via command line in single user mode, and the programs crash in the same way in safe mode also.
grrr.
The only things that are known to have changed is that they replaced the power supply last week, and the motherboard battery probably needs replacing (but I fixed the date via command line).

Input is welcome, but mostly just venting,......
Will probably have to do the Archive/Install thing.... *sigh*.
