I can't seem to find quite this exact problem in the archives anywhere, so here goes. I am using a 13-inch Mid 2007 MacBook running OS X Version 10.7.4 (Lion).
I can open the System Preferences application just fine. But I cannot open any of the individual preference panes. This is no matter how I try to access them: by clicking on an icon in the main System Preferences window, through Spotlight, via specific menu items like "Open Network Preferences..." in the WiFi menu...
Whenever I try to open a preference pane, the System Preferences title bar reads "Loading [Whatever]..." and the window just sits there. It's not frozen, per se; I can still hit the red (X) to quit without difficulty, for instance. I also get the following 3 messages in my Console:
Can anybody tell me what's going on / what I can try to fix it? Let me know what I can clarify or what additional information I can provide.

Can anybody tell me what's going on / what I can try to fix it? Let me know what I can clarify or what additional information I can provide.
