  • Open console and watch the activity when you open TextEdit — it could greatly clarify things.

If you have Xcode installed, you can recompile it yourself.

Go to /Developer/Examples/TextEdit, double click on TextEdit.xcodeproj, and click the play button.

In case you are Xcode less, let me know, I'll upload a build for you on my server.
