Hello all, I've searched and haven't found a thread with a problem specifically like this one, so I hope it's okay here. Starting 3 or 4 days ago, my iChat just stopped working. Anytime I click on it, the icon bounces in the dock, it opens, and 3 or 4 seconds later it closes out. If I click on it again, it does the same thing. I didn't think much of it and just used AIM until I could sit down and mess with it, and I did not have a problem with that. I figured my iChat was just wonky, but I then noticed the same thing happening when I tried to use Skype (opens, stays open for a few seconds, closes).

At the same time that this happened, my iTunes told me it could not open because there was not enough memory available. I knew that couldn't be the case and followed instructions to reinstall iTunes and haven't had a problem with iTunes since. I haven't detected any other problems.

I'm using an iBook G4 1.33 GHz, if that matters. Any ideas on what the problem could be and possible suggestions? Thanks so much for your time!
