Why does it crash? What's in the crash report? You can find it in Console.app.
Removing a file does not fix the preferences, and neither does a re-install. If
the problem is in a bad preference, you can reset the preference only from the
command line. Try to type the following lines in Terminal.app to reset the
autofile preferences:
defaults delete -app BibDesk BDSKLocalFileFormatKey
defaults delete -app BibDesk BDSKLocalFileFormatPresetKey
