Use of the spell checker crashes InDesign CS4

Hello

Have installed InDesign CS4 and updated to 6.0.3

But whenever I try to check the spelling in any document or access the dictionary in file > Prefs, InDesign crashes.

Have done all the usual checks, repair disk permissions, set cell former InDesign Prefs file, then recreated fresh file, not identified any conflict in the Console, run as an Application only on Mac InDesign. I have no third-party plug-in in the plug in folder, set up the default printer in the Print Center, logged on as another user who has administrator privileges, troubleshooted all my fonts, defragged the hard drive and checked all hardware.

Still InDesign crashes when you try to access the dictionary in file > Prefs, or simply to check spelling Edit > check spelling in all - new or previously created document.

In fact the first time check I'm using spelling (Edit > check spelling) in a document, the spelling will appear, but with a US instead of a British spellcheck, I can't change that in file > because InDesign Prefs, it blocks.

Then if I try to check spelling Edition > check spelling a second wheel rotation, the time appears and bang - crash repeatedly.

InDesign CS4 6.0.3 Mac OS 10.5.7 running on a Mac Pro 2.8 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon with 2 GB of RAM, ATI Radeon HD 2600XT.

The CS3 clean script would be a mistake, I think. There is a version of CS4, but which would remove the other CS4 applications as well.

Being a Windows user, I'm not well versed in all potential problems in OS X, but this kind of accident is sometimes related to fonts. You have any kind of font utility, you can run to check for damaged fonts? You use a font manager?

What about the other third-party plugins? You must disable ALL the non Adobe plugins and test again. Alternatively, you can rename the folder to SING, even if problems that have generally crash at startup, I think.

Have you tried to create a new account clean and stable in this? What permission repair, Disk Warrior and other typical functions of Mac maintenance?
