So it still fails when not safe rebooting?

If the Skim icon is bouncing, try:

  1. Open Console and look for errors.
  2. Run ‘sample Skim 1’ from Terminal and paste the report.
  3. Use ‘ps aux’ to see if the Skim process is actually running —  
ideally run ‘pstree’ to get the process tree (so we can see if it is  
started directly by TM etc.), but ‘pstree’ is a custom install (e.g.  
MacPorts).
