On Mac OS before X, there was the great Conflict Catcher software sorting such problems out, but there's no such thing for OS X. In any case, the hard part is always that the crash happens only on someone else's computer and I can't reproduce it to find out what's going wrong. Instead, I'll try to give you some pointers that are often helping and do not require to understand the Crash Report contents. However, analysing these reports is difficult and may not lead to success, either. Then, there are other parts, installed by other apps or even installed explicitly by you for a particular purpose. Many of those components are so-called Frameworks and 'libs' provided by Apple as part of OS X but they're usually not the culprit. It will contain a long list of 'Binary Images,' listing which software components are loaded along with the app that crashes. Sometimes, one can get a hint by looking at the detailed Crash Report one can find when opening the Console app. The difficulty is to figure out which software is the culprit, in order to disable it and/or notify its maker and ask to get this resolved.

Often it turns out that this is caused by an incompatibility or bug in some other software that tries to enhance general Mac OS X functionality. Sometimes, people contact me because software of mine, such as Find Any File, crashes mysteriously at launch.
