Mac Forum / Applications / Internet Explorer / November 2003IE unexprctedly quits on mac OS 10.2.6
Hello, I am using Mac os 10.2.6 and IE 5.2 worked perfectly. Then all of sudden couldn't launch it kept saying unexpectedly quit message so I upraded to 5.2.3 still same thing happens. I deleted and reinstalled again, no change. I saw someone post same problem and did their solution of disk utility running repair permissions from boot up it said a lot of messages and it repaired but IE still does not launch. I downloaded netscape and to my surprise I get same message "unexpectedly quits", the only browser working now is safari. but on some sites I use they require IE or netscape to access site. Does anybody know why all of sudden this is happening and how to fix it. Please email me scarab21@optonline.net. > Hello, I am using Mac os 10.2.6 and IE 5.2 worked perfectly.

Delete the following file and try again... ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.internetconfig.plist Ricky Before reading your message I followed another advice of deleting preference file and all IE and install again, did not work. Now I went to library preference like you said and did not find com.apple.internetconfig.plist Thanks, Abbie > > Hello, I am using Mac os 10.2.6 and IE 5.2 worked perfectly.

I narrowed it down to the "QuickTime Plugin.plugin" file in "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins". Remove this file, IE starts. Put it back in, crashes on startup. I've tried deleting all the prefs to no avail. I think this is related to QT 6.4, but I have reinstalled IE and QT and the problem persists. Any ideas? -Marc >-----Original Message----- >Before reading your message I followed another advice of deleting [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >Thanks, Abbie >Richard Grieve Mac MVP <richard.grieve@NOvirginSPAM.net> wrote in message news:<BBCDD7AB.D0AE%richard.grieve@NOvirginSPAM.net>... >> > Hello, I am using Mac os 10.2.6 and IE 5.2 worked perfectly.

I suspect that it's an attempt by apple to keep us with their Safari system....Anyway, have any of these techniques solved your problem Abbie?? Look forward to your insight. >-----Original Message----- >Try creating a new user account and give IE a try. Denis [quoted text clipped - 52 lines] >> >. Having the same problem. Attempted to find the plug in but could not. Tried to put QT in trash restart the computer and try IE and that did not work. I've reloaded IE a couple of times. I've noticed when I attempt to launch IE it goes through the motions but seems invisable. My cable internet connection appears to be working and downloading something when I launch IE but nothing pops on the screen. When I do a force quit sometimes the explorer is in red.

Open your Hard Drive, then go to HD/Users/<Your User>. From their (your Home), navigate to Library/Preferences, and test to see if com.apple.internetconfig.plist is corrupt.  SignatureMickey Stevens (Microsoft MVP for Office:mac) PowerPoint FAQ featuring PowerPoint:mac: <http://www.pptfaq.com/> Entourage Help Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/toc.html> I have the same problem, IE was quitting on startup, all of the sudden. So I downlowded 5.2.3, still the same problem. Then I upgraded OS10.3 Panther, still same problem, IE quits on startup. Now Netscape 7.1 quits intermittently with Panther. I have deleted the internetconfig.plist file and started the browser. IE still quits and a new internetconfig.plist file has been created. I have no idea what to do. No info is available from Apple and I see others in forums with same problem but no solution yet. Help! And Thanks!

I'm interested in resolving these IE issues - I certainly need to know of any specific issues that arise around using IE on Panther.

[quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > David Owens > owens@ipacific.com Hate to sound like a broken record, but I have the same problem with IE AND Entourage X (when it attempts to load HTML e-mail messages it quits "unexpectedly"). I've done a search on my iBook for com.apple.internetconfig.plist file and it doesn't even exist on my computer. I noticed this problem with IE & Entourage right after I loaded Safari on my Mac. Half-thinking it's Microsoft's way of punishing me for using Apple's browser. Help! Mike McClary mmcclary@mindspring.com on some sites I use they require IE or netscape to access site. I don't know how to tell what browsers a given site requires. Other than an error message about using the wrong browser, is there a standard place to check on a website to find out what browser(s) are required? Thanks. John .
