A couple of days ago I reported issues with my iLife ’06 installation where GarageBand 3 was repeatedly crashing, even when I ditched all the preferences, .plist etc. Nothing I did would stop this behavior except changing Users. This I thought was odd, what is different between User accounts other than preference files? Now it seems obvious; media. I did test GarageBand without the Media Browser open and performance did improve, temporariliy.

George Starcher contacted me today however, having dug around the Apple Support forums a little. He came across this thread which explains that GarageBand has issues with certain media types in your /user/movies folder when runnig. For more information, please refer to the linked thread or contact us.
