Mac won't open any application, apps go unresponding.

TheProPlayer1 · Nov 3, 2012

Ever since yesterday, i had a problem with my mac that it would not open any apps.
Chrome would work but, it wouldn't load anything.

Has anyone experienced this problem or dealt with it?

Welcome to the Mac Forums.

As a new member not familiar with the forums.... please do not post your question to more than one forum. That's known as cross posting. Only post to one forum. I removed your cross post.

Now, in order to help you with your question... provide us with some info about your Mac (year and model) and which version of OS X you're using. Also, have you recently installed any new software or updates that could have caused the problem to occur?

Alright 2 things

First, Thx for the update

Second, MY mac specs:

My mac is a 2.3Ghz with 4GB of Ram. its a 15' inch and is 1 year and 2 months old.
My mac runs Mountain Lion and the last thing i downloaded was a Team Fortress 2 map from tf2maps.com called the great class dash and i haven't updated anything. If you're talking about those apple software updates i didn't update those too.

Reply if info is not clear or not enough

Hi,

Not saying there is a definite link here, but have a look at this thread http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/switcher-hangout/288387-cant-switch-applications-all.html re (Team Fortress 2), it seems very strange that yours and that user are having this issue only since yesterday.

Maybe fully remove Team Fortress 2 and see what happens.

This is good advice. If you specifically did/installed/changed something that causes an adverse reaction, the first thing you should do is try reverting that "something" to see if it goes away. If it does, then that's a starting point in figuring out what is going wrong..

I could try it but, my finder doesn't work too. I could try it for about 14 seconds then it asks me to continuously relaunch.

Sorry for the long replie's. I live in thailand so night is day and day is night according to the timezone the website is using

What about from safe mode?

chas_m · Nov 17, 2012

To activate safe mode: restart your Mac and hold the Shift key down IMMEDIATELY upon hearing the startup tone. Keep holding it until you see the words "Safe mode" on the screen.
