iTunes on Macbook Pro

Kweku · Apr 13, 2009, 04:22 PM

itunes won't run on a mac book pro, any ideas?
It says something about not having permission to run it on this hard disk, there is only one hard disk and one admin user, someone please help.

freaksavior · Apr 13, 2009, 04:25 PM

if itunes wont run then it could be a possible curuption.

go to your application folder and if itunes is in there now drag it to trash and delete it. try reinstalling it.

maybe boot in safe mode on your mac as well and see if you can reinstall it. (and yes, you can boot in safe mode if you didn't know that)

Kweku · Apr 13, 2009, 04:50 PM

how then would i start up in safe mode? and do you know anything about office 2008 on this asweel, it says the database is messed warara.....

use mail. just as good imho or get thunderbird

Kweku · Apr 13, 2009, 06:34 PM

i don't like the interface with those, is there an update for mail that makes the interface close to outlook? and thunderbird as well does not seem to be working... transferring from outlook to thunderbird has been hard work.

freaksavior · Apr 13, 2009, 06:39 PM

well use outlook for mail and use iworks for everything else.

Kweku · Apr 13, 2009, 06:44 PM

outlook for mac tunes it can't run on this platform, operating system seems to be too high for it, thing is there is only outlook 04, well that was last time i checked. or which one were you talking about?

freaksavior · Apr 13, 2009, 06:56 PM

there is something to replace outlook for sure.

Kweku · Apr 27, 2009, 08:37 PM

lol. im back
Anyway, had this mac crash today, wasn't here, so i get called in to sort it out, what had happened was that the database office runs from had changed and crashed in the process, so i rebuilt it and ran it again, it works proper now, i have only one question, what could have caused this?

freaksavior · Apr 27, 2009, 08:43 PM

mac isn't perfect. stuff fails

Kweku · Apr 27, 2009, 08:45 PM

so you think it was just a typical system failure? was expecting it to be more stable

freaksavior · Apr 27, 2009, 08:54 PM

it was m$ office right?
