Just bought my mbp a little over a month ago and these few weeks I've been experiencing some weird errors.

On ocassion, OSx would not allow me to open docs/run programs/install programs as such and spit out an error message saying "Operation Could Not Be Completed. An Unexpected Error Ocurred (error code -10810).

All this goes away once i reboot. Has anyone experienced this before? Could it be something I installed? Some sort of OS corrupt? Any help is appreciated.

It's a Launch Services error. Some help can be found here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread....4&#1479114

Some googling indicated that other who have had similar problems had renamed something, can you think of any applications (not documents) that you have renamed? Did you migrate your data over from another (non-Intel) Mac? If so, maybe there is an incompatibility with something that was migrated. Also, create a new user and see if the problem appears there as well.
