(1) ObjectSupportLib? - If you have a file called 'ObjectSupportLib' in your extensions folder, put it in the trash. Since System 8.0 this file's functionality has been built into the system.
To protect your system against erroneous installation of the ObjectSupportLib library by third-party installer scripts, create a folder of the exact same name in your Extensions Folder. Installer scripts will not replace a folder with a file of the same name. (2) Extension conflict? Try a restart with all other 3rd-party control panels and extensions disabled. (Note: I recall an extreme case of an extension conflict which resisted all attempts to track it down. It turned out to be an extension which would initialize if it was present anywhere within the system folder, even hidden in sub-folders. To disable, it had to be moved outside the system folder altogether. Sorry, can't remember what it was...) hth..
