mjp Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Try to start System Preferences with Rosetta. I'm not at home so I can't try the Rosetta thing, but I do have the Front Row hack installed. I wonder if that could be messing stuff up. I'll try both when get home and post the results.

Lagerstatten Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I have the exact same problem with this as well and I do believe that it has something to do with the installation of Front Row being installed in the computer. I installed the Front Row hack by Andrew Escobar (www.andrewescobar.com) and I tried uninstalling using the "Front Row Enabler" but it doesn't do anything. I even removed Front Row from /System/Library/Core Services/ and it still doesn't do anything to fix the Keyboard and Mouse Preference pane from working again. Anyone found a fix yet?

Technobob Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Try opening the system preferences with this command It will open it in service mode I think thats what they called it. In 10.4.3 you don't have the option to open it with rosette like in 10.4.1. Open terminal and type this you will need to enter your password sudo /usr/libexec/oah/oah750 /Applications/System\ Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/System\ Preferences Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/4424-cant-open-keyboard-mouse-in-preferences/#findComment-39392 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lagerstatten Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 That's a beauty! Thanks Technobob that worked perfectly. However, the first time I typed it in and entered in my password it gave me this error: "Segmentation Fault" However, when I typed it in again, which was EXACTLY the same as the first time I typed it in...it worked. And it didn't ask for my password again either. Thanks again!
