Files not found after migration to new Mac

Hi,
On my old Mac, under Snow Leopard, my installation was complete and everything worked fine.
Then, when I bought a new Mac (with Mountain Lion installed) I had to use Migration Assistant to restore my Time Machine Backup, which included my Logic Pro installation.
Now when I try to use Logic Pro I often get these "Audio file ... not found!" messages (see example).
How can I fix this?
Many thanks!

Thanks for the link! Instead of un-installing and re-installing everything, I noticed that in GarageBand (which I normally don't use) there was an update/additional download available. After doing it I noticed that this had fixed nearly all missing-audio-file-problems in Logic Pro: when checking for missing instruments by creating a new instruments project everything was complete again on 2 of our 4 Macs (pre 2012 models) -- on the other 2 Macs (late 2012 models) only the following 3 ( ! ) files are missing:
/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/Sampler/Sampler Files/...
.../Seventies Kit/DC Tit Hat 08.aif
      (of EXS24 Instrument "Seventies Kit.exs")
.../Liverpool Bass/IL Btl Bass bomb 08.aif
      (of EXS24 Instrument "Liverpool Bass.exs")
.../Steinway Grand Piano/Steinway Pedal V1/Stw ped v1 024.AIF
      (of EXS24 Instrument "Steinway Piano.exs")
So we copied the 3 missing files into the same directories on the 2 newer Macs, but it seems Logic doesn't "see" them and therefore still says that they are missing:
How can I help Logic to find these files?

  • FCP Not Working after Migration to New Mac

    OK this is really making me mad. i bought a new mac, and used the cool now migration assistant to bring all my stuff over. apps, docs, all that stuff. and when i try everything works great except Final Cut Express. I open it and it asks for the the serial number, i put in the one i have, and it won't let me click OK. any one know what to do? cause that really makes no sense to me, why can't i use my own apps. all i did was transfer it.

    Just did a migration myself. I got a new MacBookPro and did a migration from my MacPro. FCE worked fine without a hitch. I had trouble with DVD Pro in FCP. I reinstalled FCP which fixed DVD Pro but broke Compressor. Looked on the archives on this forum and did the fix:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1060925&tstart=0
    When I copied over compressor.app and the associated library files it worked.
    The other strange thing was iMovie 08 on the new Mac was then hosed. I did the same trick, copied the .app and Library directory from my working MacPro and all worked fine.

  • ITune songs not found after migrating to new iMac

    My old iMac's graphics card broke. Luckily I have used Time Machine to back up to ann external HDD.
    I used Migration Assistant to bring up the new iMac. However, I cannot find any songs in iTune. The songs can still be found in my iPhone though.
    I also found that Time Machine has set up a new folder in the external HDD, so while the old backup files are still there, I cannot access it when I tried to restore it.
    Need help.
    Since this is a new, clean installation, I don't mind reinstalling the OS X, which I have done, if it helps.

    There is no Music folder.
    Perhaps I should try to start from a clean slate again. Do you think it will make sense to wipe out all the data and re-install OSX, re-migrate? There will not be any lost data (compared to what I have now..)
    When I re-installed OSX, I had to state a name. I chose the name on the previous computer, which led to a conflict when I tried to migrate. I had to choose another name for the new iMac. Could this have led to the inability to restore properly? (am I making sense?)

    If you are syncing using iCloud, try going to System Preferences/iCloud (computers) and checking Safari. If it is checked, try deselecting it, wait 10-15 seconds, and then check it again.

  • After migrating to new Mac iCal pop-up screen is mostly off screen ...

    After migrating to new Mac iCal pop-up screen is mostly off screen and I can't seem to find a way to get it so that it pops up in the middle of the screen or anywhere else where I can see the whole thing.

    This is a known bug which began to occur with the 10.4.8 update. I suggest you file a bug report with Apple. Its quite annoying and hopefully, the more people who contact Apple about it, the more importance they will give to fixing the problem.

  • Aperture asks for original serial number after migration to new MAC

    After migrating my software and files from my iMac to a new Mac Mini. Aperture asks for serial number first time I wanted to use it. Will not accept the serial number from either my first, Aperture 2 version of my Aperture 3 upgrade. I believe I never had version 1 - can't find amongst my software collection. Website support doesn't seem to allow me to display the software dtails I have registered with Apple over the years. How can I get this information?

    Try Troubleshooting Professional Application Serial Numbers and if that doesn't help see Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers
    Apple support has been pretty good in the past suplying new serial numbers with the bare minimun of documentation.
    good luck
    Message was edited by: Frank Caggiano - reading your post it is not clear but if this version of 3 is an upgrade from 2 you will need both serial numbers. First enter the serial number from version 2 then the number from 3

  • File not found after restart

    Hello,
    We have a web application that reads in a .ini file. This works great. But, when we have to restart tomcat (for example after the database has been restarted) sometimes tomcat throws a file not found exception for that file. The only way to get rid of that exception is removing the deployed diurectory of the web application and start tomcat again so it deploys the the application again. The .ini file doesn't leave its place and is always there.
    Kind regards,
    Martijn

  • [SOLVED] GRUB 2 - "error: file not found" after Clonezilla Restore

    Hello,
    I backed up my Arch Install which is one root partition covering the entire SDD with Clonezilla, to play around with Gentoo and FreeBSD on my Laptop.
    Now I restored the image and when GRUB 2 loads I see "error: file not found" three times for a short momemt before I'm in the GRUB 2 menu.
    When I boot my I also see these 3 messages (probably the once from the early loading process) and "Loading Linux ck kernel...." "Loading initrafms...." "Press any key to continue..." When I wait for a short time or press enter it boots like expected (fsck message appears for a short time since I'm using quite boot and I'm in KDM after that).
    Grub loading...
    error: file not found
    error: file not found
    error: file not found
    Loading Linux ck kernel...
    Loading initramfs...
    Press any key to continue...
    I did not have this when I  backed it up. It booted into the menu and when I booted the menu entry it would go black to show me the fsck message and seconds later I was in KDM.
    I tried $ sudo grub-mkconfig but it did not change anything.

    Anyone has a clue what files it is looking for? And why it doesn't boot straight away, when there is nothing that keeps it from booting up normal anyway?

  • File not found after importing from external hard drive

    I have been importing music from an external hard drive into my Itunes account.  Some of the songs transfer fine, but some of them show up in Itunes as being imported, but when I go to listen to them I get a file not found message because the original file cannot be found.  If I have the hard drive plugged in there is no problem, but without it I get that message. 
    Any advice?  I"d really like to get all music set up in Itunes.

  • After migrating to new Mac Pro Dreamweaver won't launch, says missing menus.xml file. How do I resolve this?

    After migration to a new Mac Pro Dreamweaver CS6 won't launch. It says it is missing menus.xml file. How do I resolve this?

    Hi rustyg12,
    Go to Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver CS6/Configuration/Menus/menus.bak
    You'll see a menus.xml there - it is a backup copy of the actual menus.xml file that DW uses.
    Copy it from that folder, paste it 1 level above (in Menus folder).
    Fire up DW. See if it works.

  • User ID Not Recognized in App Store after Migrating to new Mac

    I migrated to a new Mac using Migration Assistant being careful to create an identical user account on the new Mac. All went fine. When it came time to update apps through MAS, some apps updated and some would not (e.g. Pixelmator) and MAS tells me "You have updates available for other accounts" and asks me to log out and sign in as another user – but the user name is exactly the same as my current user name. There is definitely only one user account on the Mac, so what is going on?

    Cracked it – thanks. The message that MAS displays is not clear and looks like it's referring to User Name. Also MAS does not have a Preferences dialog where you would normally enter Account/Apple ID details, but it's under the Store menu item – confusing.

  • Sampled Sounds "Not Found" After Move to New MacBook Pro

    Hello All,
        I moved my Logic 9.7.1 from my old MacBook Pro to my new one via Migration assistant; both are running Lion. A smooth transition in all programs with all files showing in the same folders on both. I key in both my Logic 8 and Logic 9 serial numbers.
       The problem is when I use certain software instrument patches on my new Mac and I get a prompt saying the audio file can't be found. I click the "search again" tab and keep getting the same meaasage. My only option is to click "continue" the channel strip loads but there is no audio. This seems to be totally random; most sounds load but i would say about 10% don't.
        I go to Library>application support>logic>sampler Instruments> and the files are there! I manually place a copy in my project inside the sampler instruments folder but it still does not see it. I notice that it does not make a folder for it in the samples folder of my project. All the sounds that work have a folder in the samples folder.
       It's frustrating. I can see the file but Logic can't find it...........What shall I do?
    Jimmy Maddox

    Hi Jimmy,
    I found I had the same problem going from a 2006 iMac to a new Mac Mini (I had used Migration Assistant and pulled all the files from a Time Machine backup - this was Mo/Tu this week).
    I went back to the old iMac and found the bulk of missing samples in (something like) Library>application support>Garageband>...Sampler?Samples? (I will check the details and be more specific later today (currently on a work's Mac with no iLife). Anyhow, the key thing is 13+gigs of samples where held under that folder structure & not under Logic. I checked this am and everything is now working fine (the first time I changed patches on the ESX24 there was a 2 mins or so delay (spinning beachball etc) however it then popped up fine & after that switches patches with no extended pause)
    I hope that helps,
    Best,
    David
