I upgraded to "10810" "finder" "disown" Snow Leopard yesterday, and I'm having a lot of troubles, Finde, Time Machine the application cannot be opened 10810 and Disk Utility being the most annoying of them. I don't really know which one of them is making the the application finder can't be opened 10810 fix others unstable / crash but well that's starting to be very irritating, now when I try to start the Finder I get this :*The application Finder.app can't be opened.*-10810Restarting the Computer ( Mac Book

I ended up doing it with rsync, the copy is still going on ( it will take a long time ) but I'm left with a Zombie Computer where I can't open a finder, and every Application that use it to open some file is crashing itself.Is failed with error 10810 for the file there a way to manually relaunch it ( I don't want to reboot, my computer is stuck backing up a lot of files ) ? I tried Sudo Launch the Finder from /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS with no luck, any help would be appreciated.KSMessage was edited by: Kel Solaar Mac OS X (10.6) Posted on Aug 30, 2009 12:36 PM I have this question too Close Q: The application Finder.app can't be opened.

I also noted that many who reported the problem also reported having external drives connected. And many reported the same drive I have -- a WD MyBook. So I think it may be the same problem.I also have a blu-ray writer that I've added to my second optical bay. And my optical bays are behaving strangely since this problem started. One of the potential "cures" on my list is to disconnect that drive.I ha

Programming errors in third-party applications can fill-up the process table, leading to the -10810 the application finder can't be opened 1712 error when opening an application.

You Can't Open The Application Finder Because It Is Not Responding
It is based upon extensive research of this problem on the Web, especially a 2009 Apple Mailing Lists post by contributor Terry Lambert. This FAQ expounds upon Terry's post in an attempt to make the cause https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2135129?start=675&tstart=0 and resolution of this problem more accessible to the general Mac OS X user. Background All running programs on your Mac are processes. This includes both applications that you open and faceless background processes, i.e. processes without a graphical user interface (GUI), such as mds (the Spotlight metadata server) or cupsd (the CUPS printing daemon). Activity Monitor shows a list of all running processes. Finder is an application, hence it is a http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/error-10810.html process. Processes can launch other processes, known as child processes. For example, the launchd (launch daemon) process opens many background processes when you start up or log in to your Mac; launchd is the parent process and each process it opens is a child process of launchd. Mac OS X tracks running processes in a process table. Mac OS X has a default limit of 266 user processes per account. You can see this limit by issuing the Terminal command ulimit -a and noting the max user processes value. Once this limit is reached, the process table is full: new processes cannot be started until a currently running process terminates, hence new applications cannot be opened. If you attempt to open a new application when the process table is full, an alert dialog will appear showing error code -10810, e.g. The application appname.app can't be opened. -10810 where appname is the name of the application you attempted to open. If Finder is hung and you attempt to relaunch it when the process table is full, an alert dialog appears with the message: The application Finder.app can't be opened. -10810 The limit of 266 user processes per account is set high enough that it would be virtually impossible for a user to open enough applications to fi
a reboot. From what I've gathered by searching around on the web, Error 10810 occurs when the Launch Services framework has some http://osxdaily.com/2010/02/09/mac-error-10810/ sort of meltdown, causing the Mac OS X Kernel to run out of available threads for anymore processes to launch. In the event that some process has got errant and is in some infinite loop of launching and hoarding threads, this will cause a rather lovely barrage of error dialog boxes (see screenshot below). If you start getting Error 10810 in OS X, the application you likely won't be able to launch any other application (Finder included) and so the best thing you can do is to reboot your Mac. Yes, rebooting the Mac will fix the error - kind of lame, but it works. If you are continuously plagued by this error, then you may be using some buggy software that is launching itself into a gazillion threads the application finder causing Mac OS X to freak out. If anyone has additional information or troubleshooting tips regarding this error, feel free to chime in. For what it's worth, simply killing and restarting the Finder was not sufficient in my experience to resolve the error, which is why a complete reboot of the Mac was necessary. Enjoy this tip?
