Thanks Leo. My file names were slightly different, so I removed
~/.kde/share/config/amarokrc and ~/.kde/share/config/amarok-appletsrc. It's
working great. Thanks again.

Regards,
Justin Brown

</div>Hi Justin,<br>
<br>
Do you have  b acktrace? A window should pop up after Amarok crashes<br>
that shows you more information about the crash, including a<br>
copy-and-pastable backtrace.<br>
<br>
In any case, you have deleted amarok&#39;s data files in<br>
~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok but not it&#39;s config files, which are in<br>
~/.kde4/share/config. So you can delete the following:<br>
<br>
~/.kde4/share/config/amarokrc - general amarok settings<br>
~/.kde4/share/config/amarok_homerc - which applets to load when opening amarok<br>
