MuseScore 1.2 crash

I am very frustrated by being unable to open MuseScore. I think there is a corrupted file somewhere that is upsetting MuseScore, but I cannot find it.
The crash is immediately MuseScore opens. The splash screen appears, MuseScore reports that the previous session did not close properly, and regardless of whether I choose to reopen the session or not, MuseScore crashes.
Where is the file held on Mac OS X (10.7.4)? I have tried reinstalling MuseScore, but it doesn't help. This is a bug in itself; when MuseScore is deleted it should clear up after itself. I can imagine a diffulty in doing this, however, as I have separate users on my computer for different tasks that do not have admin privileges.
I have attached the crash log in case it is of use to someone.

Excellent, thank you. The factory reset didn't fix it, but deleting the two sub-folders in ~./config did it.

There might have been confusion because I've had a nightly build installed. There were two sub-folders, one for 

mscore.org

and the other for 

musescore.org

I couldn't see what was wrong in the MuseScore.ini files. Must have been something subtle. I've attached them in case it is of interest to any bug hunters.

Since this appears to be resolved, I close this.

The focus for the Issue Tracker is 2.0, so it's generally better to use the forum for things pertaining to 1.2.
