Hi Meb, thanks for your help. I made what you said without success.
Let me resume with more details the following test. - Start AP1.7.2fr without personal shortcut. - assign N to Document>Convert Format/ICCprofile - quit AP
- Lauch AP and open a jpeg file. - Type N which open the Convert box - open the list « colour format » (btw, this menu is in english in my fr version) and select RGB/16 (on the other list I let the Adobe RGB (1998) profile selected) - clic on Convert > crash
You may notice that in the previous version 1.6, there was an item « colour format » directly accessible from the Document menu. Now this Colour-format list is integrated inside the ICC-profile box and this is far more slow to access (not to speak about the crash problem).
I attach the Apple-crash-report rtf file if it could help.
