A dynamic library is missing. You must have installed an incompatible system extension with a recently installed application. The Final Cut Express 4 installation is known to cause this problem. (Aperture 3.x: Aperture unexpectedly quits if Final Cut Express 4 is installed)The safest fix is to reinstall MacOS X. Boot into recovery and reinstall on top of your current system.

See: OS X: About OS X Recovery

To start your computer from Recovery, restart your Mac and hold down the Command key and the R key (Command-R). Press and hold these keys until the Apple logo appears. This indicates that your Mac is starting up. After the Recovery System finishes starting up, you should see a desktop with an OS X menu bar and a "Mac OS X Utilities" window. Note: If you see a login window or your own desktop and icons, it's possible that you didn't hold Command-R early enough. Restart and try again.

In order to reinstall OS X, you need to be connected to the Internet over an Ethernet or Wi-Fi network. The Wi-Fi menu is in the upper-right corner of the screen. Click the icon to select from available Wi-Fi networks. Choose your preferred network name and, if needed, enter a username and/or password.
