This is my first post, and I hope my question will not look very noob, because I am in mac OS.
Through reading I managed to install SL universal on my HP Pavilion dv5, then I updated to version 10.6.3 from Apple.
Everything seams to be working ok apart from that some applications such as Quick Time, Preview and any other application I try to install. The applications like iWork09 would open and I can click any button on its bars but I can not write anything in it. checking the log it says something like invalid context and invalid pixel format.
My config. is as follows:

thank you rizalrexy. this maybe the case with iWork09, the other affected programe such as QuickTime are as you know defaults. I don't understand it really?
Anyways thank you for your time reading and writing, I'll try to get another copy and see what will happen.

Could be a Trojan
I'm not an expert, but I've heard some distribution of iWork09 has Trojan in it.
I never experienced the same problem, mine was working just fine.
