Sorry to hear you're having crash problems. (I just had one myself on 3.4 
reported in another thread)

The image didn’t come through, but from your text I can tell you’re getting the 
file-lock warning. You are getting this warning because GnuCash sets a 
file-lock so you can’t unintentionally edit the file simulatenously with 
someone else. (not supported at this time)

When GnuCash exits normally, it deletes the lock-file. But because it crashed, 
the lock-file is still there.

So since you know this was a crash, you can simply choose to Open Anyway.

However, if you are repeatedly getting crashes, you should report them here so 
someone can help. (I don’t think clicking the button on the crash report window 
to “Send to Apple” does any good because it isn’t an Apple application)

If you can manage to *make* it crash intentionally following the same steps 
with regularity, that is even better. (easier to figure out the actual cause so 
it can get fixed faster)

Regards,
Adrien
