'open' doesn't work for several apps such as Books, Android Studio, AppCode... I tried to use different shortcut - same. Is there any solution?

[prgres]

Let's try with open -a Books

Let's try with open -a Books

tried before - doesn't work

tried before - doesn't work

Did you use the full path open -a /Applications/Books or just open -a Books?

Have you tried to run a which Books to confirm that the Books application is actually located where you think it is?
