Good to see you got it figured out. In the future you can try some of these:
You can often clear out the Library Pref files and Caches in OSX for specific programs that crash on start up. A corrupt Pref file can prevent a program from launching. Just be careful here, this is similar to nuking registry entries on a Windows machine.
Google around and look for MacOSX Helpmate. Its a pretty handy program that Apple consultants use for clearing up old cache files and file system errors. We have a copy at work and its a good way to freshen up an older MacOSX install.
