This morning I tried to fire up the Arduino IDE for the first time in a few weeks and it failed without any messages, so thinking that the latest updates on my mac (especially java) may have been the culprit I downloaded the latest copy of the IDE and found the same problem.
I did a disk permission repair - No change
Opened up the sysyem console log and found a host of errors associated with my start up of the IDE. To log exactly what the errors were I started up the IDE from the command line so I could watch the console logs, this is the result:
Command:
open -a Arduino --fresh
