Demo plug-in keeping logic from launching. HELP!

I can't get Logic Pro 7.2 to launch. It gets stuck on an Antares avox throat
demo that I installed months ago. It was never authorized and expired but I never trashed it. I thought I might buy it and get authorization but it's not worth $250. to me. I tossed the old versions and tried to load a new demo but there must be a pref file somewhere that says the demo has expired so I can't get the ten day trial time to trash the demo from my plug-ins manager.
Am I going to have to reinstall Logic or is there a way to get to the Plug-in
Manager list and delete avox throat without launching Logic?
G5 Dual 2.0   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   Logic Pro 7.2

I did another search and took all the instances of avox out
of the plugins folder which worked but now I'm having trouble with other authorized plugs like Virtual Guitar 2.
It seems that sometime they will snag and keep Logic from launching and even crash it but if I relaunch the plugin search continues apparently beyond the culprit plugs and continues. I guess I'll have to reinstall Virtual Guitar 2.
This will be the third time. Maybe they will come out with a fix for what ever the problem is. Yeah, right! Steinberg is almost as bad as Liquid when it comes to support. I sent Liquid a somewhat angry note about their Liquid Guitar
plug not being advertised as if it would do more than it does and I have yet to get a reply automated or otherwise.

  • How do I keep itunes from launching when I plug in my headphones

    I have a set of Bose headphones with an inline mic/remote and there are times that I plug it into my Air Itunes with keep trying to launch and play music. I can close itunes and it will relaucnh. The only way to stop it is to disconnect the headphoes. I use these headphonoes on my ipad and iphone with no issue.
    Any advice on how to stop this?
    Thank you,
    Justin

    Normally, iTunes would only launch if you push the start/stop button of the remote.
    Means, that if iTunes launches (and keeps re-launching) as soon as you connect the headphone, there's something wrong with the headphone jack in your Mac.
    It can be as simple as requiring cleaning:
    With the Mac shut down, try to blow the headphone jack out, e.g. with compressed air - you can get that in cans.
    Do not use liquids! The one thing you may c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y do is using a cotton bud (Q-tip) and as little as possible isopropyl alcohol on it to clean it from sticky stuff. Repeat a few times, let it dry well before turning the Mac back on.

  • Ct-plugins plug in keeps Safari from displaying window

    I had a ct-plugins plug in get on my Mac which caused Safari to not open a window. Tech helped me delete this yesterday. It appeared again today. I did remember how to delete it and did so. But what is the source of this plug in that keeps getting on my Mac?? How do I keep that plug in from getting on here??

    Your problem is with the Community Toolbar.
    It's a terrible app/plugin that messes up Macs like the plague.
    Did you ever install a customized toolbar? Like a Facebook one? Or for watching sports?
    Here's how to search and destroy:
    Close Safari.
    Check here for CT Loader
    Locate and delete:
    HD/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    HD/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
    HD/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
    HD/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
    HD/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
    HD/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    It may not be in every single location, but get it out where ever you find it.
    Restart Safari. Any Better?

  • Plug ins and rosetta from the help file

    does anyone know how to get safari to open with rosetta - to use plug ins better?
    I follow the instructions but cannot find the rosetta check box anywhere - screen shot helpful
    could it be my imac 1.9 G5 PPC doesn't have rosetta?

    thanks
    I'm trying to watch tv (live football) on my imac G5 and Safari is struggling with some of the pages. Can't download IE anymore and so I need to be able to find the required plug-ins to watch. for example: Safari can’t open “tvants://www.tvants.com/tvants/?k=b098b8443c47b932”
    also plug-ins required are a common error message.
    I think this technology may only work with PC's - a shame
    appreciate any help - have had a mac for years (since my Amiga became a relic!)

  • How do I keep Safari from launching Mail when I click on a mailto: URL?

    I have a MacBook running Mavericks 10.9.4, running Safari 7.0.6.
    I read my email via the gmail website, so I don't need to use the Mail application. The problem is, if I accidentally click on a mailto: link, it runs Mail.
    I've seen some fixes online which change the mail application to something else, but that's not what I want; I want to stop the behavior entirely.
    Any ideas? (I know about modifying .plist files, so if there's a quick hack there, that would be nice to know.)

    I can't promise this will work since I don't want to mess with my preferences to try it:
    Open the AppleScript Editor in Applications/Utilities. Paste this into it:
    do shell script "open https://mail.google.com"
    Save as an application and place somewhere convenient. Nominate this application as your default mail application.

    Dear Linc,
    Thank you for the advice, John Blanchard1  and Linc Davis
    As suggested in your reference thread I removed "/Library/Printers/hp/PDEs/hpPostScriptPDE.plugin" and the problem has been resolved.
    I am guessing the the plug-in for the hp printers got corrupted and effected every thing, or became unsuitable when I installed an Apple update. I would be most grateful if you can confirm how the problem was coursed so I can understand and learn from this experiance.

  • HELP! HOW DO I KEEP LOGIC WHEN UPGRADING FROM TIGER TO SNOW LEOPARD!

    So I use a later macbook but have another slightly older one (got it in 2007) that kinda kicked the bucket. I'm now able to use it again (with a new setup). I have Logic express (an older version) but the macbook is running that last version of tiger before leopard. I want to upgrade to snow leopard (which i've learned I can from tiger directly for the low price) but I don't want to lose logic since I payed for it and don't have the install discs anymore.
    I don't mind getting rid of everything else but I want to keep the actual program on the comp and just run it in SL. What specifically do I have to do (as far as backing up and all that) to CLEANLY upgrade from tiger to SL but keep logic? I'll have an external HD by the time I'm ready so keep that in consideration.

    I have never used Logic Express so I can't help you but if you to the Logic Express Forum and repost over there you might be able to find someone who knows about Logic Express to help you.

  • Illustrator CC2014 keeps crashing on launch....help i'm on a mac running maverick

    My illustrator program keeps crashing upon launch
    i called tech support they fixed it
    and the next day it's doing it again
    I'm trying to contact them but they are closed
    thanks for any help you can provide

    Had same problem. I had the Wacom Inkling installed. You will need to remove that, or any other third party plug-ins and restart illustrator. Found this:
    Solution
    In the Finder, browse to the folder that contains Illustrator plug-ins.
    Move all third-party plug-ins to a different folder.
    (Important) Press and hold Command + Option + Shift, launch Illustrator, and keep the keys pressed until Illustrator launches. This step clears all Illustrator preferences.
    Caution:It's necessary to press the keyboard combination (Command + Option + Shift) in the same order as mentioned above.
    (Optional) If you require your third-party plug-ins when you use Illustrator, try adding one plug-in at a time. Each time you add a plug-in, ensure that you follow step 3 to start Illustrator. 

  • HT4623 My ios update keeps getting stuck on the Restoring iPhone software stage. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it again, but still nothing. Now I can't even use my phone as it shows the plug into iTunes screen. Please help!!!! Thanks,

    My ios update keeps getting stuck on the Restoring iPhone software stage. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it again, but still nothing. Now I can't even use my phone as it shows the plug into iTunes screen. Please help!!!! Thanks,

    A Restore first downloads a new copy of iOS to your computer. On a slow Internet connection this can take a long time. How fast is your connection? How long would you expect it to take to download 900 MB?
    That's assuming nothing is interfering with the download. Some firewalls and antivirus programs will block the download or slow it down. So you should temporarily disable your security software. Security software can also block the update after the iOS download is complete.

    In the past, when I updated iTunes, some items would be 'lost'. I quit updating, still running 10.6. I do keep my files on an external hard drive, which I plug in before starting iTunes. If I leave the drive off, and update, would that keep me from losing any files? Also, does anyone know how to search the iTunes store by price? I'm particularly interested in movies and audiobooks... Thanks

    iTunes does not have provision for automatically storing one kind of media on a separate drive, so you have some basic decisions to make first.  Do you want these movies to still appear in your iTunes library, or are you content with browsing filenames on a drive in Finder when you want to look for one?  The second's the easiest thing because then you don't have to have an external drive permanently turned on and attached to your computer (wired or wireless).  To do that you literelly only need to drag your movies folder to an archive drive and delete movies from iTunes.  To watch them again you can add it back to iTunes while holding down the option key so the movie is used from its location on the external drive.
    There's ways to move the movies to an external drive while keeping them in iTunes but the external drive iwll always have to be turned on and connected to the computer or you will see a bunch of broken link exclamation marks.
    Realize what you are talking about is not "backup".  Backup (which you should do) is putting a second or more copy of items on external drives for the day when your internal drive fails and everything on it is lost, inclduing all your home photos and perhaps things that have been pulled from the iTunes Store and can no longer be re-downloaded.

  • IPads turn on when plugged in to power. Is there a way to keep this from happening?

    I am a tech for a school district. We have iPads in carts and when they are plugged in they automatically turn on. This keeps them on the wireless when not in use which uses up our wireless ports. Is there a way to keep them from turning on when plugged in?

    This keeps them on the wireless when not in use which uses up our wireless ports.
    Have you looked into adding more ports to your configuration.  Isn't the number of ports a configuration option?

  • How do I keep Firefox from switching to Yahoo? I get a site and then yahoo comes up and tells me the site is unavailable! Help!!!

    When i select a link, Firefox initially allows me go there and then very shortly thereafter, switches me to Yahoo with the message "site not found." Is there a way to block Yahoo completely--or at least keep this from happening? I use Google for my searches. Please help!

    Do you notice any pattern to this, for example, does it occur with certain sites or types of sites?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the same action in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still run)''
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?
