Crashes with 3rd party plugins

I am loving the functionality of MS, but these crashes are getting really embarrassing, especially amongst my PC loving band members. I have the new unibody MBP with 4gb ram. Everything is great and solid while performing. I never get any clicks or pops while playing. All of my crashes occur when changing patches within a concert. It does seem to be more directly related to the patches containing 3rd party plugins, such as Kontakt 3, or Kore 2. It also seems to be only the sample based patches.

Ok, so it looks like there are problems with the new MBP's running more than 3GB's of ram. If I pull out my 2x2gig sticks and put in the original 2x1gig sticks, it runs fine and never crashes. I bought the ram from OWC. I will be sending it back, but in the meantime I am not sure that I trust their ram. It is made (or distributed) by Nanya. I don't know if the problem is with the ram, or if it is a problem with NI product running in Mainstage, or if it is a problem with the new MBP running 4gigs of ram. We shall see.

We are using HT Employee Monitor software to block certain employee internet access, chat & social network. And we use TB to receive email.

We have to close the "new tab", then we only able to close the pop ups.
Scanned for virus shows nil result. Then we try to disable the HT Employee Monitor (not uninstall) and TB act normal.
I'm not sure should I report this finding here. If not please let me know where can I submit this finding.

CS4 and 3rd party plugins - icons disappear

I'm having problems with CS4 on Vista 64bit with 3rd party plugins. I'm aware that 64bit issues exist but even on the 32bit CS4 Photoshop's toolbar icons disappear once Nik, OnOne etc are installed. I've left CS2 installed as well on the same system and this works fine.
This could be a problem with for the 3rd party developers of course but obviously CS4 has changed something.
I have Vista 64bit with 8gb RAM. Disabling the GPU functions doesn't help nor does running CS4 in XP compatibility mode. Removing the plug ins is the only way to resolve the problem.
Just wondering if anyone else has hit this problem and even better found a solution to it.

I think I can recall the behavior being confirmed for Nik and they are working on a fix/ update. The situation may be the same for other tools/ vendors, so you'll probably have to live with it for a moment or resort to using older versions of PS...

How do you install and delete 3rd party plugins from Logic 9?

I have been trying to install RX2 from iZotope with no success. I can authorize it in the standalone version but not in logic. I had a previous demo version of it installed and everytime I went to authorize it would point to the earlier version and not authorize and run in demo. I removed a number of files pertaining to it from HD & User/ Library/ Preferences and Audio/ Components and tried reinstalling. Now it doesn't even show up in the plugin list. Can anyone tell me how to clear this up? Also, how to deal with 3rd party plugins. What can I say, no problems with Reaper! Appreciate any help with this. Thanks

The Isotope website isn't very clear about it.. It seems to indicate the Windows version is 32 and 64 bit where as the AU version is 32bit and will work/is compatible with Logic 64bit.. which it will as it will run under the 32 to 64bit bridge... when Logic is run in 64bit mode..but as i said, it's hard to tell one way or the other.
The thing is, if you simply reinstall it.. and then run Logic first in 32bit mode and then in 64bit mode.. it should show up.
Where are you looking for it in Logic?
Does it show up in the AU Plugin Manager? (after, that is you have reinstalled it)

Flickering graphics in Logic - especially 3rd party plugins

I see a lot of people reporting (myself included) "flickering" of graphics in Logic, especially in 3rd party plugins so I decided to post a video of it occurring. Is this a "known issue"? I will be reporting it to Apple, and I hope everyone else experiencing it will do the same. Please watch the video and provide any input that you might have. Thanks!

Hi Clancy,
Could it be related to a Retina display?
Possibly... but as you know, I cannot test for that as i don't have a Retina display... (and frankly I'm not sure I want one at this time ) and I could recreate it on a standard screen using the same 3rd party plugin as the OP used... so i think it isn't specifically a Retina issue but... maybe retina 'enhances' the problem because of the extra load placed on the Graphical hardware/routines
So...
Is the OP is using a Retina display with his Mac Pro?
I suspect however, given the video he posted, demonstrating the issue occurring with the PSP MasterQ2 plugin...that it's only happening with some 3rd party plugins.... (as again he stated "especially with 3rd party plugins" which really might mean... only with.. depending on how you 'translate' that) and therefore my comments earlier.
Finally while the number of posts about this issue is actually rather small ( as far as i can determine from some detailed searching at least).... the thread on GS seems to indicate it's been going on since early versions of LPX and is related to Yosemite rather than LPX itself...
https://www.gearslutz.com/board/logic-pro-x/987219-logic-10-1-0-crazy-flashing-g raphics-plugins.html
...and some people have been reporting the same sort of flickering issues with other 3rd party apps and also plugins for apps like Aperture for example... after upgrading to 10.10... again indicating its a general Yosemite issue rather than a specific app issue.

Logic 9 - 3rd Party Plugin Settings not rememebered

Is anyone else having these problems?
GearBox and PodFarm don't recall their settings after Logic 8 to Logic 9 upgrade, so compete mixes have GONE!!!!
Wave Burner does the same thing with 3rd Party Plugins!!!!! Ozone is not recalling anything.
This is REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD!
I've lost weeks, months and in some cases YEARS of work on some projects.
Thanks Apple, lovely.

This is the wrong forum (because it is clearly not a general problem with AudioUnits), you should contact the plugin manufacturers!
I don't know GearBox and PodFarm, but Ozone is incompatible with a new feature in WaveBurner and needs an update.

3rd party plugins make Acrobat Crash

Hello, I am running Windows 7. When I install Third Party Plugins into the plugins folder, Acrobat crashes 20-30 seconds after it opens. I have tried this with Acrobat Pro 9, Acrobat Pro XI and Reader X. Always I get the same result. HELP!

Hi controls guy,
You need to check with the developer of these 3rd party plugins as to what might be causing the crash.

3rd party plugins crash Premiere after restart.

Yesterday, everything worked fine. I have a Sequence with clips and have been happily rendering from it for a week.
It has a mixture of Magic Bullet Looks, Film Convert and native effects across a range of clips.
Today, on opening Premiere I find that if any of the 3rd party plugins are enabled I can't render - worse, they crash Premiere.
I have not installed anything or changed anything since I was last using Premiere. I installed an update to the Creative Cloud desktop app this morning, but that was after I started having these issues.
I have tried restarting Premiere numerous times.
Rendering is fine with native Premiere plugins.
System:
Win 7 Pro
Core i7 950
12gb RAM
Quadro FX3800
Running Adobe CC, latest versions

It gets wierder. After the Creative Cloud desktop app was updated it said a whole bunch of programs needed updating so I updated Premiere.
On restart it now wont even recognise the .MTS files it was happily reading earlier.
Apparently it is now an Unsupported Compression Type, which it clearly wasn't earlier.
Windows plays the file fine so this is ANOTHER Premiere issue I'm having now...

Will Lion work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?

Will Lion OS work ok with Logic Pro and 3rd party plugins?
Any help would be much appreciated,

Well, Sylenth I know... works under Logic Pro 9 and it should be found by left clicking and holding... the Software Insturment Button (The one just below where it says i/o and then scrolling down in the menu that appears to the Instrument section below the Apple Plugins...
I don't know about Massive 1.01 because i think that one is not Logic 9 compatible because it is so old.... and I have never used Vanguard... but according to it's specs the latest version should be found in the same place as Sylenth...
Both Sylenth and Vanguard are 32bit plugins...
...and.. it probably doesn't help that you are using older/not 'legal' copies of these plugins.... *ahem*

3rd Party Plugins compatible with CS4

Is there a list of 3rd party plugins which will work in Photoshop CS4 Extended? I am thinking - in particular - of Blade Pro, Filter Factory, KPT 3 & 5, Sinedot and Super Blade Pro.

Haven't seen one. Anyway lists get out of date.
I guess the best way to get the latest information is to visit each manufacturer's web site.

AU Manager Crashes, Standard 3rd party plug-ins not working

I recently had a huge crash, down to the point where I eventually replaced my system drive with a brand new one, and started fresh.
After rebuilding my entire world, plug-ins that used to work, don't anymore - and they're standards that everyone uses (Kontakt 2.1, etc). I can't even get the AU Manager to load.....Logic just sits there forever with "the beach ball of death" untill I force quit.
Nothing "new" has been introduced. I've simply replicated the system I had before down to the T.
Any thougts?
I'm on 7.1.1 in 10.4.4
G5 2x2, LAP 7.1.1, 10.4.2, 4.5 gigs

Try removing all 3rd party plugins and see if Logic works by itself.
Add the plugins back to the components folder one by one, testing to see if they behave.
Sorry to hear about your crash, I have had this happen to me and it was a week of pain.
It really made me wish all plug ins were authorized on dongles, so that something like carbon copy cloner would have saved the day.

Possible to control 3rd party plugin/palette?

Is it possible to write something (JavaScript/COM programming/plugin) that has access to a 3rd party plugin/palette? I'm talking about XMPie uDirect. XMPie doesn't offer an official API for the plugin but I want to invoke a special action automatically that can be accessed only by the plugin's InDesign palette. I want some kind of automation.

This won't work, sorry. The palette cannot be controlled through the menus... except showing/hiding it.
I got the same idea with system events. It would be great to have a program that sniffs system events and gives information when I press a special button in the InDesign palette. The 3rd party plugin should be a kind of library like DLL that exports functions. Does anybody know a program that can monitor InDesign.exe with all its sub-processes, DLL handles and called DLL functions?
[Edit:] I tried a DLL viewer which can open and show XMPie's plugin files XMPBackEnd5.apln and XMPFrontEnd5.apln (APLN = InDesign PlugIn). They seem to be normal DLL files. If anybody knows the secrets of "decrypting" DLLs it would be nice to know if this can help me. I need to invoke the plugin's commands for XMPie's "Dynamic Print" (new dialog opens) and then just confirm with "OK" to start the export.

Trying to load 3rd party plugins in Main Stage

I'm trying to load 3rd party plugins in Main Stage. I get as far as creating a new channel strip. When I click and hold on I/O, however, the dropdown only goes down as far as "Garageband instruments." Shouldn't I also be seeing "AU" instruments below that? Can anybody walk me through doing this function?

Hi,
you might try a macro / keyboard recorder. I use autohotkey (www.autohotkey.com). If you have selected one or more items in the grid view and press ctrl-shift-n this script:
;LR Start external editor #7
^+n::
#IfWinActive Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
Send {RButton}
Send {Down 8}
Send {Right}
Send {Down 7}
Send {Enter}
return
opens the files in the 7th external editor. Of course the number depends on your installed editors and might change with additional editors.

Disabling all 3rd party plugins on an OSX user?

Hey there,
Long time no see. I'm rolling out a college motion graphics program and have hit a snag on our computer configuration. We have individual OSX user logins for each class and are using the CS5.5 Production bundle. We have a few 3rd party plugin packages installed (such as Trapcode Suite, Keying Suite, Magic Bullet Suite, etc.) and I would LOVE to disable/hide those on the account for the intro class.
Are there any straight-forward options that I'm not thinking of? I've done lots of searching but am not coming up with much.
Thanks!!!

Just for fun I moved my Trapcode plug-ins from the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/MediaCore directory to a new folder under my Rick User account I called AdobePlugins.
I changed the premissions of this folder so that other users would not be able to see the folder by setting no access for everyone. I then created an alias for the Trapcode plug-ins and moved the alias back to the original location. I then switched users and it worked. No access to the trapcode plug-ins from the other user.
This was on a Mac OSX Lion 10.7. It's kind of a hack, and the uninstallers and installers won't like it much, but so far it seems to be working. I don't know if something like this would work for Windows, but I do know that Aliases work there too. Give it a shot at your own risk.

Sort 3rd party plugins by categories

Hi there,
If this has already been asked, my apologies, I haven't found an answer to it using the search engine.
Is there a way to sort 3rd party plugins by categories, like Logic's built-in plugs (Compressors, EQs, Delays, Reverbs, etc...)?
It would be much better to search the plugins by category than by manufacturer name, don't you think?
Again, sorry if this is an old question.
And thanks in advance.

The problem with organising your plugins into channel strips is that it works fine to load the complete channel strip, but obviously cannot be used to load individual plugins on a channel.
I would like to be able to organise/customise my plugin menu in the way that best suits me, including not having to scroll all the way down to the third-party list and so on - I agree that this way of loading plugins is pretty inefficient.
Unfortunately, while this is technically easier using a Mackie Control (because you can scroll through the plugins with a knob before clicking it to load that selected plugin) - it's also next to useless because the plugin list is seemingly random, meaning that each time you scroll to a new plugin, you have no idea whether this is going to be the one you want, or whether it will take another 53 knob turns before you get there.
The library is supposed to be the redeveloped solution for this, and while it helps to a degree I actually don't like wasting a quarter of the available screen space having it open, or hitting a key command to open and close it just to load plugins. But you can't load individual plugins from the library anyway - it's either channel strips, or plugin settings/instruments. There is no way to highlight the plugin slot and then see your plugin list - so we are back to the navigate through four sub menus dance to load a plugin.
So none of the current methods are particularly good, imo. I'd like to see something better. At the very list, a menu list of "Favourite Plugins" at the top of the menu list which you could organise and choose which plugins should go in there.
