Multiple problems upgrading from APEX IDE to Force.com IDE in Eclipse

I have been trying for months to upgrade to the new Force.com IDE for Eclipse.

This is the setup:
Mac OS X (10.4)
Eclipse 3.3.2

These are the problems:
1.   When trying to open a .scf file (in a project with Force.com nature or without it), I get the following error: "Unable to load S-Control editor. Reason: PartInitException: Editor could not be initialized". I can open them fine using a different editor.

2.   If I try to refresh from the server, everytyhing works fine. If I try to save/synchronize files to the server, it fails. It won't even add an s-control I create in Eclipse. I've checked my connection settings (for Salesforce) and they seem to be fine. It clearly works somewhat since it can pull items off of the server.

Has anyone experienced similar problems? Does anyone know how to reinstall Eclipse from scratch on a Mac? Thanks in advance.
