ray888fl - Aug 16, 2005 - 9:53 pm

Having problems since I upgraded system and new programs.
Quarkxpress 6 libraries once they have four or five items in them and I close them they will not open. Keeps telling me different languages and I need passport.
cursor freezes at different times.
distiller 7 crashes when it gets to loading fonts. If I shut off suitcase it will load but then can't find fonts for jobs. Other quark files open and we upgrade them to 6 but then some will not open again with the same "Language error 287"

Raymond, welcome to macosx.com

(1) Do you upgrade from 10.3.8 to 10.3.9 ?
If, yes, would you consider installaing the 10.3.9 combo
http://www.apple.com/support/downloa...pdate1039.html
over your existing 10.3.9

(2) Could you try to repair permissions
(must be admin)
Launch Applications/Utilities/DiskUtility
On the left pane, select the drive
On the right, select the First Aid (or SOS) tab
Then click on repair permissions and let run; don not worry about messages like " new permissions...."
Quit DiskUtility
Shutdown and reboot

(3) could also download Macjanitor
http://personalpages.tds.net/~brian_...acjanitor.html
and use it to run the maintenance scripts
The maintenance scripts are Unix scripts which are automatically ran on your
Mac between 02Am and 04 am..if your Mac is on at this moment.
I can advice you to run, through Macjanitor, the daily script each day, the week script each week, ..and so on

(4) Could you also download Onyx
http://macapple.free.fr/titanium/english.html
and use it to clean the caches.

Philippe
