[QUOTE="MacDude121, post: 1512373, member: 173432"] Apologies for posting so many times in a row here. but I think I'm figuring this out bit by bit. It's Java. Something with the "Java 7" update has gone wrong, any apps that use Java (or most of them, anyway) have been rendered useless by this update. Not only that, but the update removed Java 6 from my system, but only in part. I think Java 6 and 7 are running simultaneously, and therefore clashing on certain operations, leading to these crash reports. Not sure if this is true, but Java must have some effect on the installer process as well, because I cannot launch installer to install the old Java back onto my system. And because Java 7 didn't properly install, there's no .plugin located anywhere for me to delete. I think this is what happened, or I could be totally wrong, whatever. All I know is my computer isn't working and I still don't know how to fix it. All of the errors seem to start like this: (this is java preferences as well, oh the irony) [/QUOTE]
