Opening anything other than .3dj crashes Pyware

I am on my Mac mini and anything other than a .3dj file crashes Pyware. This includes .3dz files and Production files (mine include .3dz files only so that might be the problematic extension). These same files will open on a Windows installation of Pyware, so I am thinking this is a Mac specific issue. It is running 10.7.5 and the latest Pyware.
It's the same mini as in this thread:

Inexplicably, it has fixed itself. They were transferred PC to Mac through my Dropbox and now they are opening just fine.If it crashes again, I will post a crash report.

Let me know if you have issues again. If the program gives you an error that would help as well.

It just happened again. See attached report.
If it happens again, I will attach another crash report.

Does this happen everytime you open the file? Or is this intermittent?

It happens more often than not. I wish I would have saved all the crash logs, but alas I did not. I'm not sure if it has something to do with Dropbox or with it being shuttled that way from PC to Mac. One I did make on the Mac mini decided the next time I opened it to crash Pyware also! I can also replicate the crash using a USB flash drive, so I don't necessarily think it's a Dropbox issue.
Now when I export it from the PC as a .3dj (which strips everything from the file), it will open on the Mac version perfectly. BUT...the .3dz's have opened after the transfer before or else I wouldn't have this on Youtube:

Can you send me the drill file that is crashing so that I may take a look at it?

Two files were sent yesterday. I must have deleted the third one.
