Even Macs are happier with some basic maintenance procedures, two of
which is to do disk repair and repair permissions occasionally using
Disk Utility. To easily deal with corrupt preference files, which are
not all that uncommon, try Preferential Treatment. It verifies
preference files and identifies and isolates corrupt ones. You can get
it at versiontracker.com.
Something even better is AppleJack. It performs 5 maintenance procedures
sequentially:
1 Repair Disk
2 Repair Permissions
3 Verify Preference files
4 Empty caches
5 Deletes Swap files
Read about it and download it from here <http://applejack.sourceforge.net/>
