I have Preview 2.1.1 on OSX 10.3.9.

Suddently Preview refused to work which creates problems especially when i want to preview a document I'm going to print.

 

Did try to reinstall it from original CD with Pacifier program,

after erasing bad Preview and its preferences from my computer.

 

Newly installed Preview 2.1.1 appeared in Applications folder but still can not open.

Its error log in Console looks lke this:.

-------------------------------

 

Mac OS X Version 10.3.9 (Build 7W98)

2008-09-02 13:37:10 +1000

2008-09-02 13:37:47.313 Preview[293] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting

2008-09-02 13:37:54.907 Preview[294] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting

2008-09-02 13:47:03.093 Pacifist[305] total time to load: 60.161998

 

----------------

 

I understand there is a problem but nothing more-I'm not competent in depth in complex working of the system.

 

Also,the icon of Preview2.1.1 looks strange,like generic, and there is no Preferences.

 

 

Seems to me, the best option is to get good quality(not corrupted) Preview2.1.1 from somewhere and reinstall again but can not find one.

 

Or there is another way to fix this problem?

 

Any practical help will be appreciated!

Thanks in advance fellow Mac users!

I have the same problem..It seems that the 10.3.9 update gives nothing but headaches. I think it´s apple´s way to force in buying Tiger.

 

If I find the solution I´ll post it here.
