Took my macbook pro to the apple store today and now i'm really messed up they had to do a clean install of lion osx again so i've losted all my programs and i need to reinstall logic i have logic 8 and the upgrade version of logic 9 I really need to get this working by the end of today as i'm a music student and have projects i need to be working at and i can't reinstall any of logic 8 to do the upgrade to logic 9 if anyone can help me get this sorted out i would be grateful as i really need this sorted as i paid 300 pounds for logic 8 and a further nearly 200 hundred for upgrade version and i really can't afford to pay around 420 for the non upgrade version of logic 9 and i can't afford to be without logic

Hi
There should be no need to re-install Logic 8 (unless you think you'll need it later): all you should need is the 8 Serial Number when you install the 9 upgrade.
If you do need Logic 8 for any reason, you'll need to make disk images of all the installer discs and then use Pacifist to run the install process.

  • How can i Reinstall logic pro 9 ?

    I deinstal my logic pro 9, and now i wil install it new, ..but i dindt find the logic dmg. packed. In the Apple Store i cant choose the option download, i have to buy it new.
    Can someone help me pls

    Hi
    If you own the Logic Studio disks you will need to re-install from them (with the original serial number).
    If you bought Logic Pro 9 from the AppStore you can re-download once you have logged in to the AppStore with the ID that you used to buy it in the first place.

  • Hi. I've changed my hard drive on my macbook pro and wanted to reinstall logic pro but although I took the serial number from the "about" box it rejects it when I try to reinstall. It was an upgrade to Logic 8 originally. What can I do? Urgent!

    Hello. I have installed a new hard drive on my Macbook Pro with OSX Tiger. I tried to reinstall Logic 8 Pro but it refuses the serial number when I try to install it. I took the serial number from the "About" box when Logic was still installed but no good. The software was originally an upgrade, and I don't think I have the disks for the previous version. What do I do? This is important because I only use the computer for music. Thank you.

    There's actually an even simpler solution that doesn't include buying a new version of Logic.  He can use his original version easily.  Of course, that depends if the OP knows how to effectively use his computer though...

  • Logic pro 9- had to reformat hard drive, can't reinstall on 10.6?

    So I've seen a variation of this asked, but no one has explained what to do. I recently had to reformat my corrupted hard drive and install 10.6 (I had 10.5), but when I went to reinstall Logic Pro 9 (with the actual DVD's) it said an Installation error had occurred and stops. I've seen someone say you can get a replacement installation package, but how if I can't contact apple about it? If not, anything else I can do?
    Really need some help!
    Thanks,

    If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

  • Jam Packs and "Garageband Instruments" when reinstalling Logic?

    What's the proper procedure when it comes to Jam Packs and 3rd party Apple Loops libraries when reinstalling Logic and OS X?
    I'm keeping my Apple Loops on a separate drive and know that I can just drag them to the Loop Browser after reinstalling Logic. However, by doing so, I don't think I'll be getting the "Garageband Instruments" that are installed with the Jam Packs and some 3rd party Apple Loops libraries. Is that correct? If so, what's the best way to deal with this? Always installing all Apple Loops from the disks or perhaps saving a folder (which one?) with the Garageband Instruments before re-installing OS X?
    When I last installed Logic, and told the installer to install the Jam Packs on an external drive, they were still installed on the system drive! Does anyone know why? Now what's the best way to move the Apple Loops? What I've done in the past is installing them to their default location, and then creating an alias in Home:Library:Audio:Apple Loops folder that points to the new location on the external drive. Is that the way to go or is another way better?
    Any input or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Jam packs consist of two types of content. Loop content will go to where you choose to install it (an external drive if you wish). Instrument content has to go to the GB library, for a number of reasons, and the GB library will be on your system disk under Application Support/Garageband.
    So backup your GB library in addition to your Logic related stuff.
    It is possible to move much (but not all) of the heavy Instrument content to an external drive too, but there are gotchas with this.

  • I do not have my discs for install.  My main computer is dying and purchased new computer.  How can I reinstall on new computer without discs?

    Hi,
    My main computer is dying - keys do not work and video is gone.
    I purchased a new retina Macbook pro and want to reinstall Logic Audio Pro 9.  I do not have my original discs.  I can still access the program on the original Macbook to deauthorize if necessary.
    But how can I reinstall wihtout the discs?
    Any help would be great.  Thank you!
    -Alec

    Carbon Copy Cloner -or-
    You could remove the HD and put it in an External Enclosure -or-
    Maybe try using Apple's Migration Assistant -and finally-
    Once you have the new computer set up you may want to use Time Machine

  • I am trying to reinstall Logic Studio 7 and I cannot find the serial number. It's suppose to be in one of the installation booklets. I'm not sure which one. Could you help me?

    I am trying to reinstall Logic Studio that i bought back in 2008, and I cannot find the serial number. I think I barely remember running into this problem before with this application. When i use the installation disc it tells me that the serial number is located in one of the installation booklets, and it doesn't explain to me which one. Can you help me?
    Thank You!

  • Reinstall Logic after Archive and Install?

    Since updating to 10.4.10, I have been plagued with frequent lockups and kernel panics. Yes, it could be a hardware issue, but I've run the hardware test and even stripped down the machine to clean out all the dust and check for poorly seated components, and the problem persists. And it started happening the very day I updated to 10.4.10... it's too much of a coincidence.
    Anyway - if I do and archive and install to take me back to 10.4.9, do I need to reinstall Logic from scratch, or can I copy relevant parts across from my old system folder? Similarly, do I need to reinstall my third party plugs (I have lots), or can I just copy over the components/plug-ins directory? Anyone done this before?
    Thanks!

    Best way for me was to make a complete backup with SuperDuper or DiskUtility on a FireWire disk, reinstall and use the Migration Assistent.

  • Do I need to reinstall Logic to get my loops back?

    OK, so I don't know how I did it, but apparently I deleted all my Apple Loops.
    A long while back I was looking around for free loops, and as far as I can tell, when I downloaded them I must have tossed all the old loops from Logic and Garageband. I didn't notice this until now because I don't use loops much.
    So if I want the Apple Loops back do I have to reinstall, or can I get them 'a la carte' from the DVD? I don't want to even put the DVD in if it means I'm going to lose everything I have there now. (channel strips, preferences, etc.)
    thanks,
    Jim

    Based on the fact that I have NONE of the factory loops left I don't think this is what I did. I can't locate certain loops that I know were there with Spotlight, (for instance the Motown drum loops); this leads me to believe that they were put in the Trash. Of course I have emptied the Trash about three or four times a week since I did this many months ago.
    What happens if I reinstall Logic? Should I go through and save all of the files that are there now, and then put them back in the right spots later? This seems like a severe pain in the butt, as well as almost guaranteeing a screwup.
    thanks,
    Jim

  • Can't open Logic Pro after having installed Mountain Lion

    After having installed Mountain Lion I can't find Logic Pro (the latest version) back in my programs. I do still find all of my sessions. Trying to open a session a "Basic Content Download" starts. Just before the end of the download the computer asks for my password. After I've typed it and pressed enter the download stops.
    This means I can't open any of my sessions.
    What should I do?
    Thanks for any advice.

    If you used the Mountain Lion installer it will have "migrated" your iWork software to the new system.
    Unfortunately that doesn't always work properly. I had to reinstall mine from the original DVD.
    If you can't find your DVD then you will have to purchase the iWork software individually from the Mac Store.
    Just make sure to completely uninstall your existing iWork from your System first:
