The problem was solved in an other forum.

I will try to remove a few starting apps and will report back. I have no Automator action running in the Service folder in the Library. I was hoping, this would help, but then I couldn't open Automator nonetheless note open any Automator Script I had previously saved. I actually could save the file when I was in Safe mode. I did it in this order: Safe Mode, then normal mode, same account. How does it work in Mavericks yes, I confirm. I've heard of Pacifist, but I thought it extracted apps from the DVD of OS X. I launched it within the app, like I've done it hundreds of time, and after executing it all correctly, at the end it just crashed.

I used a regular pre-instaleld script for the Calendar app, copied it 100x and changed the dates and time. I'm no expert, so I'll try to answer as best I kryten2Īctually, I did nothing particular. Thanks kryten2 and Weaselboy for your quick answers ! Your answers kind of relieved me and hope I can solve this soon. I don't have my Time Machine backup anymore. I'm stuck and would really appreciate your help. Is there a way to reinstall jsut Automator from the Guest account or newly created account ? Even though, I don't know if that would help, since reinstalling Mavericks made no difference. It can't be I have to erase & reinstall everything just for one little app. Tried reinstalling Mavericks (not erase and reinstall) and launch it afterwords > it failed Tried to restore a working version of Automator with Time Machine > it failed Tried it after removing all Preferences files > it failed Tried to relaunch it in normal mode > it failed

Tried to launch it in safe mode > it worked Tried to launch it through the Guest account > it worked. Tried to launch it after repairing disk permissions > it failed I already check a few forums about it and tried the following: Generally, I click the icon, no window opens, going to the menu bar brings the colored spinning wheel, and then i closes itself after a few seconds.

Sometimes, a messag ecomes: 'relaunch windows ?' I tried with yes and no, no result. After that, it refused to reopen no-matter what I tried. I'm in need of assitance, as I'm runnig out of ideas how to solve this issue.Ī few days ago, Automator crashed after running quite a huge script I created (but nothing fancy, just reproducing a calendar event 100 times, but it was quite a long window).
