For some reason, the icons in my dock don't magnify anymore. And the name of the program doesn't appear when the mouse moves over the icon. The only name that appears on my dock is "Trash" and it just stays there the whole time.

I tried restarting, and the dock worked fine for awhile, but then it went back to acting all funny.

Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Just go to Dock Preferences, mess about with the settings and then put it back to how you want it.

First, remove the <User>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist.

Now, goto System Preferences>Dock and activate the Magnification. You can also adjust the magnification and the position.
