Today I went to open a casting call document from my acting agent using MS Word in Office 2004 as I usually do every week and I got the following error message:
The application "Word" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "<Microsoft Word><Apple;Carbon;Multimedia><CFMPriv_QuickTime><>"
I then tried scouring the web as I usually to find a solution. I tried repairing the permissions and rebooting. That did nothing for the problem. I then returned to the web and found that others having this type of problem also had problems opening Adobe Photoshop. I checked my copy and, lo and behold Photoshop gave me the same error message.
Recently I updated my versions of Quick Time and Adobe Reader. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but other people with this problem have mentioned installing updates as well.
Due to the fact that I was given the two above programs as well as Illustrator by my last job before they went belly up I don't not have any of the discs to re-install. That said reinstalling Mac OS X is the last resort.
If someone could help me to understand what is going on and fix this I would greatly appreciate it.
