I have a terrieble problem.

Each time i point at the dock with the mouse, the dock disappears, the background is flashing gray and then the dock appear again.

I have read all threads about this problem, and I have:

- deleted the dock-file in /Users/Mac/Library/Application Support/Dock

- deleted the com.apple.dock-files in /Users/Mac/Library/Preferences

- tried to login as another user at the OSX

- restart the mac in Safe Mode.

--> in Safe Mode i works! And when i restart into normal mode it works . . . until i restart the computer again. Then the problem is back again.

I have Macbook Pro 17'' mid 2009, 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

The OS is: OS X 10.8.2


Thanks in advance!

Create a new user and use that instead.

Hate to even say it, but if all else fails, format and do a fresh install.

Found the answer!!

Go to the font catalouge --> disable the versions of Lucida Grande that has a warning sign (for me it was Bold and Regular).


Now it works.
