Whenever I try to open Activity Monitor is just blinks and closes. Very similar to a program crash.

I don't see any info, any window or really anything.

What's the fix?

Thanks,

Jeff

Trashed the prefs yet?

(~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ActivityMonitor.plist)

Happens to me once and a while with Activity Monitor. Opening Disk Utility and repairing permissions always fixes it. Try that. 🙂

Not yet on either

Going to trash the prefs first. I'll report back on the result.

OK. There is NO prefs file for the activity monitor. I did a search for activity and for monitor and it didn't show up.

Going now to see if repairing permissions works. BRB.

PERFECT!!! Repairing permissions took forever, but it works like a dream now.

Thanks,

Jeff
