[QUOTE="baggss, post: 173981, member: 6762"] Before you do that, there is one other thing you can try. Create another profile on your Mac and try doing the same things from there. If you still get the crashes, you know it is OSX and not your profile. If it works from the new profile, you know it is your profile and not OSX. You could then simply migrate your stuff to the new profile. If you want to reinstall, I’d do an “Archive and Install” as that will simply put a fresh copy of OSX on your machine but keep your profile intact. If it doesn’t happen in the new profile, either migrate your profile to the new one, or do a clean install and rebuild your profile from scratch. [/QUOTE]
