Then, when using the channel tool to switch from Composite to Single Channel, Fiji partially crashes. The Channel Tool is unresponsive and we cannot quit Fiji normally and must Force Quit the app. Some of the other menus still respond though...

Has anyone experienced this after an update from a couple of days ago? Any hints on where we should keep looking for a possible solution?

This seems similar to problems of Java 1.8 + ImageJ + OSX, which we
recently discussed on this list. When I tried Java 1.7, I also has
problems, though I did not test that very much.
I suggest you "fall back" to Java 1.6.
Mark Hiner recently posted a shell script that will let you run 1.6
even if 1.8 is installed. It should also be in the FAQ. See:
