AutoCAD LT freezes when "select color" is used

I am running AutoCAD LT 2012 for MAC.  I am running OX Lion 10.7.

 

Everytime I try to change the color of anything (be it a layer or line or block), AutoCAD freezes when I click "select color".  Once it freezes, clicking anywhere in the program results in an error sound effect.  I am still able to open menus on the menu bar at the top of the screen, but most of the options are greyed out, including "quit".

 

Any ideas on what might be causing this error and how I can fix it?

Hi,

 

Did you have previously external monitor connected to your Mac when you used AutoCAD LT?

It appears, that Color dialog "live" on it.

 

Try to reset Application Settings from Application tab of AutoCAD LT Preferences.

Thank you!

 

Although I had never used an external monitor, resetting the preferences worked.
