Idea 8.1 on Mac not showing Project View

Hello Greg,

Please try rebuilding the caches (File | Invalidate Caches).

If it doesn't help, please file a JIRA issue (at http://www.jetbrains.net/jira)
with attached idea.log (from ~/Library/Caches/IntelliJIDEA8x/logs)

I have IDEA 8.1 for the Mac (OsX 10.5.6) and I cannot get it to show
the project view. Without the project view I can't see ANYTHING. It
had been working fine for a while, and once in a while it will go back
to working, but mostly it doesn't work. I have screenshots of the
problem...keep on readin

g!

Here's a project called Merchantize8 that I actually created in IDEA
8.1 while it was still working for me. If I open it in my old IDEA
7.0.4 (also for the Mac) it looks exactly as I expect it:
http://cli.gs/jYAd1S (screenshot). The Project View is open by
default, and if I ever were to lose the
project view, I can always open it from the 'Window' menu item.
Here is what happens when I open the same project in IDEA 8.1:
http://cli.gs/R2svUJ (screenshot). It comes up completely blank, and
with no access to the Project View.

Your help is appreciated!

Greg Sandell
