Whenever there is a crash, delete the preferences: To delete preferences, hold down command and option while starting the application and click Delete Custom Settings. The application will start with default settings and open an "Untitled" library. Adjust the settings, reopen the library you were working, and see how it works now.

If the problem persists, you need to provide workable information in order for us to be able to help.

Please run Etrecheck and post its full report here. Use the "additional text" button and paste the report into the text box.

This will tell us information about the OS version, mac model, drive space, etc so we can look for possible causes of issues.
