After installing the Creative Suite on MacOs 10.2.8 PS crashes whenever I do things in the file browser (like changing author, keywords, copyright, etc.) and switching to a different image.
It seems that whenever an alert window is opening it stays blank and PS crashes. Does anybody know of this or how to solve the problem?
Below one of the crash reports.

Amendment:

In fact it seems that it crashes, whenever a basic Alert window wants to open, i.e. after re-installing PS, the same thing happened than the first time round: PS crashed at startup and I had to press cmd+option+shift to get it to start up.
I thought it had something to do with old PS7 settings, but it seems it’s because an alert window opened.
Same when in the file browser: only ever when the alert window comes up.

Another amendment:

Found the culprit: I had Ittec (contextual menu without pressing ctrl) installed, which conflicted with Photoshop. Not loading it made PS run without problems again.
