- Unable To Open Office Applications On Mac
Not long after upgrading to Mac OS 10.9 the Mac OS X App Store stopped loading on my Macbook Air. Starting the app took several minutes and once the window actually came up it was empty. Clicking buttons in the App Store window did nothing.
I found a suggestion that resetting NVRAM ( the equivalent of PRAM on the old PowerPC Macs ) would solve the issue. In my case that worked. The processing of resetting NVRAM is simple and short ( from http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379 ):
MS Teams Mac client: Open in Office App One tiny difference for Mac users: The button to directly open a document in the local Office client is missing (Windows users can do that). So with one click. I had this same problem: App Store very slow to open window, and window permantently blank and disfunctional. In my case it was enough to reboot my Mac (MacBook Pro, Mavericks) with no NVRAM. So the NVRAM reset may not be the thing that fixes it; it is a very low level thing to affect something as high level as an app. Delete the app preference file. Plist files can become corrupt when a Mac shuts down or restarts unexpectedly or when an app freezes or crashes. As a result, the app may not open. When you delete a bad preference file, the Mac creates a new plist file that contains all the app's defaults automatically.

I don’t reboot very often, I usually try to avoid it, but it was worth it to get the Mac OS X App Store app working again.
