Mac Forum / Applications / Internet Explorer / August 2004Explorer "unexpectedly quit"
All of the sudden, I can't open Explorer -- a message comes on that says "Explorer has unexpectedly quit" and that no other applications are affected. This has been happening for a couple of days and I've reinstalled it to no avail. Any ideas out there? Hi J Is it happening with all the sites aor with just one of few sites. What OS and IE version you are using? Thanks Naren > All of the sudden, I can't open Explorer -- a message comes on that > says "Explorer has unexpectedly quit" and that no other applications > are affected.

Drag Macintosh HD/Users/<Your User>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.internetconfig.plist to the Desktop. Re-launch Internet Explorer and see if it crashes. If it still does, move the Internet Preferences files back. If it does not, you can trash the Internet Preferences files. Run Disk First Aid. Instructions on how to run it in OS X are located on the Apple Knowledge Base. <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214> Try repairing permissions. For OS 10.2/10.3: Go to Macintosh HD/Applications/Utilities. Open up Disk Utility. Select your hard disk, then click the First Aid tab. Click the button to "Repair Disk Permissions". For OS 10.1.5: Download the Repair Privileges utility, free from Apple, and run it: <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106900> On 8/20/04 11:25 PM, in article e0ea6207.0408202025.30faa786@posting.google.com, "JWalker" <jsjlwalker@sbcglobal.net> wrote: > Didn't work, either... > [quoted text clipped - 42 lines] >> I've >>>>>>> reinstalled it to no avail.

SignatureMickey Stevens (Microsoft MVP for Office:mac) PowerPoint FAQ featuring PowerPoint:mac: <http://www.pptfaq.com/> Entourage Help Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> In case you're using OS9.x: Go to your pref. folder (inside your system folder), open the explorer folder there and drag your favorites onto your desktop. Then delete that explorer folder and also the Explorer Control folder in the prefs folder. When you relaunch IE, it should work again as advertised and you'll notice that the explorer folder has been recreated within the prefs folder. You can quit IE and drag your favorites file back into the explorer folder and you're all set. > From: jsjlwalker@sbcglobal.net (JWalker) > Organization: http://groups.google.com [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > are affected.
