Clip Browser not launching (Mac, Snow Leopard). Any suggestions?
 

Hi there,
This has never happened to me before. Clip Browser isn't launching. I'm on a MacBook Pro, running Snow Leopard 10.6.2, 4GB RAM. Latest version of Clip Browser (2.06).
Any suggestions?
thanks,
Malcolm

I should have added: I get this information in the 'Problem Report' window:

Exception Type: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP)
Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000
Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread

Application Specific Information:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException', reason: '*** -[NSCFString substringToIndex:]: Range or index out of bounds'

Anything hooked up to the computer?
Have you tried uninstall reinstall of ClipBrowser?

Hi Craig,
Yes I did an uninstall (didn't see this option in my XDCAM EX Clip Browser folder, so used AppCleaner) and a reinstall, with the latest version I could find (2.06).
I've got a new ext. display attached. I'll detach it and try to launch Clip Browser again.

Detach any external card readers as well.

I don't have any external card readers attached. But I'll try repairing disk permissions, and then relaunch. (this has never happened to me before, but I guess there's always a first time). Cheers, Malcolm

Repairing disk permissions did it... what a relief.
Craig, thanks for chiming in. It prevented me from panicking.

Snow Leopard seems a bit more "permissions" conscious that Leopard.

BTW I mentioned the SDHC reader because I had a problem with ClipBrowser crashing that was tied to a specific model Sandisk multi card reader as well.
