Similar issues to a post started 1st February but - that issue seems to have been fixed so I'm guessing this might be down to something else.

Running OSX 10.6.8
CCleaner: 1.01.106

Installed OSX 10.6.8
Downloaded CCleaner from apples app store - Initially worked fine.
Removed a bunch of Fonts (not from system-library-fonts)
CCleaner no longer loads - crashes immediately.

Does CCleaner require a font i may have removed?
Can't think of anything else that I'd done since last using CCleaner successfully.

Have uninstalled/reinstalled CCleaner - still crashes immediately.

That'd be kind of awkward if CCleaner removed one of its own dependancies.

Does OS X let you change system fonts to be universal? Windows does, but I don't have a copy of OS X to muck around with.

Sorry - think i may have confused the issue there.

I deleted the fonts manually outside of CCleaner.
The SnowLeopard installation activated 7,000 fonts on my machine - which ground photoshop to a standstill.
So i deactivated them all (not the system fonts) and started reactivating just those that i know i use.

After that procedure though CCleaner lost interest in launching and just crashes on start-up.

If you have everything important backed up to external drive, is there a MAC restore similar to the one in Windows?

If so, you could revert back to when things were working & try again.

CCleaner needs the font 'CourierNew'.
MacOS had Courier in the System Fonts but not CourierNew - so it let me disable it.

Thanks guys for taking the time out to help - appreciate it!

Glad you found your answer, thanks for reporting back too!

Sorry for posting on this topic four months after its creation, but I have a similar problem to the one described above. Like LazyCarrot, CCleaner crashes immediately upon launch. Unlike LazyCarrot, I can't remember anything out of the ordinary that I've done recently that might have caused it to start crashing. I did try to use the "Repair Permissions" tool, but canceled after about a minute of nothing happening, realizing that the tool would take more time than I had.

I'm running OSX Version 10.8.2, and trying to run CCleaner Version 1.03.131.

And yes, I've tried restarting my computer (twice), uninstalling/reinstalling CCleaner (twice), and running a virus scan, none of which did anything to help. I've also checked my fonts, all of which are enabled (including Courier New).

I'm at a complete loss as to how to deal with this, so any advice would be appreciated.

Is this what I have. Running 10.8.1 and using CCleaner since the 10.8.1 version came out. Can think of nothing I did then now "CCleaner Quits Unexpectededly" on launch. Uninstalled and deleted and reinstalled and same thing. Nothing I can do will get it to work?

I'm sorry for replying to you guys so late, but I'm just now starting to help Mac users here
I have 2 questions:
1) Does this problem still happen?
2) If so, upgrade to the latest OS X (10.8.3) and update to the latest CCleaner version (1.07.133)
3) If it then still happens, please post a list of all the apps you have installed. Perhaps there's an app you both have installed that creates this problem.

If it still happens, I'll dig deeper
