Yes I'm trying to install the whole of logic studio. I'm starting to wonder if the dvd drive is faulty?
Thanks

  • My hard drive went out one of my Macs and I am trying to install logic studio on another Mac but the serial number is invalid. What are my options?

    My hard drive went out one of my Macs and I am trying to install logic studio on another Mac but the serial number is invalid. What are my options?

    Check that the serial you are using is the correct one..
    Typically the problem is either you are misreading the serial and therefore typing it in wrong. Check you are correctly entering zeros or O.. and so on....
    or...
    You bought the LP9 upgrade version.... which requires the LP8 full serial as well.
    If it is the LP9 upgrade serial.. (and not the LP9 full serial) you must enter your original LP8 full serial first and then the upgrade serial for LP9.. when it asks for it.
    Failing that.. you can obtain a replacement serial from Apple.. using this form.....

  • How many macs can I install Logic studio on?

    Ok so i recently bought my first ever iMac.

    and I want a Mac Pro just for logic and any other PRO apps I buy later on. So i was wondering if anyone can help me with the question i have;

    It would be easier to just fix whatever is making your machine slow.
    I wrote a little diagnostic program to help show what might be causing these problems. Download EtreCheck from http://www.etresoft.com/download/EtreCheck.zip, run it, and paste the results here.

  • Unable to Install Logic Studio

    I am trying to install Logic Studio and am failing every time.
    I have a Powerbook G4 1.5 Ghz with 1.25 mb Ram running OSX 10.4.10
    I am able to start the installation, choose the location of the install, and select which components I'd like to install. I have decided to limit the install to only Logic Pro and leave out all the other programs as my harddrive doesn't have the space.
    So according to that, only two items are checked. Logic Pro, and Apple Loops Utility under Tools. It's telling me that it requires 5.7 GB harddrive space, which I have. I click upgrade and type in my password. It installs Logic Pro, installs Logic Node, and when it tries to move on to Logic Utility (or something like that, the screen changes too quickly) it goes to 3% and gives me an error.
    Then it tells me to "please try installing again"
    I've tried installing logic node separately but it still doesn't work.
    What am I doing wrong? Normally I'm ok with computers, but i guess only on PC's. Macs are a new world to me.
    I just realized I only have Garageband 2. Is it because I don't have Garageband 8?

    Maybe this is inapropriate but I once got very lucky by just cleaning the DVD which was full of finger prints, After I cleaned it...It worked.
    Like must of us I have a lot of experience being frustrated, even the most knowlegable among us get frustrated at time.
    What I would do is proceed in a mechanical way step by step (computers hate this)
    1. Clean DVD,
    2. Seat down and read the install procedure.
    3. Disk Utility, Startup disk>Verify and Repair disk permission
    2. Trash Logic Pro 8, Sound Track Pro, Main Stage and Garage Band (Save GarageBand Files
    somewhere else if you need too)
    3. Go toFinder > Empty Trash
    4. re-install The absolute minimum (No Node dont need this yet) (Maybe you're forced to it I dont
    remember) but if you have the choice the answer is always NO
    5. Proceed slowly reading carefully all instructions.
    6. Repeat 1-5. If this dont work Maybe you have deficient DVD's it Happen (It happen to me)
    Honestly Your system seams to be bare bone minimum to run Logic Pro 8. Maybe Logic has out grow it.
    Best of luck

  • How many computers can install logic studio through a serial key?

    Hi,
    I have recently purchased a new mac book pro. I have alredy installed logic on my previous mac. Is it possible to install logic with the same serial key on my new mac?
    On how many computers can we install logic studio using the same serial key?

    Yes
    The licence details depend on how you originally purchased Logic. The original (DVD) licence allows for you to have Logic installed on 2 computers, provided that you do not use both at the same time.
    The Appstore Licence allows you to install on any computer that you own. See this article for a simple guide

  • Installing Logic Studio on an iBook g3?

    I recently purchased an apple i book g3 on ebay, which i plan to use specifically for creating beats and music.. and i also recently came across Apple Logic Studio 8, did some research on it, and it seems like it's just what i need.
    My question is, is it a bad idea to attempt to install Logic Studio on the g3? the minimum requirements for Logic appear to be just a bit more than what my laptop has for me to work with... The iBook i purchased has 900 mhz, 40gb, mac os x 10.4 tiger, those are mainly the only specs i am worried about..
    Just by looking at the numbers i would assume it may not work, but then again i read a few posts from people on other message boards, using basically the same laptop, and installing logic express without any issues.
    Either way ive already paid for the laptop so i am stuck using that for a while, but i REALLY want to get my hands on Logic Studio and work with that as well.. suggestions?

    +logic 7 System Requirements:+
    (pro- and express have the same sys reqs - ES)
    +* Macintosh computer with *PowerPC G4* or faster processor (G5 or dual G4 processors recommended)+
    +* Mac OS X v10.3 or later+
    +* 512 MB of RAM+
    +* 4 GB of available hard-drive space+
    +* PowerPC G5 and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for Logic Node applications+
    +* DVD drive for software installation+
    +* Available USB port for XSKey (copy protection)+
    +* Low-latency multi-I/O audio hardware and MIDI interface recommended+
    I think you should try to get an earlier Garageband (2.0.2, part of iLife '05):
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306338
    Or Logic 6:
    Minimum:
    +Mac OS X 10.2/Mac OS 9.1 or higher+
    +604/250 MHz processor+
    +128 MB RAM+
    +CD-ROM or DVD drive+
    +free USB port for XSKey+
    Recommended:
    +CPU with Velocity Engine support (G4/MP)+
    +256 MB RAM or more+
    +Low-latency audio hardware for software instruments+
    +Multiple I/O audio hardware for Surround+
    +Separate fast hard drive for audio data+
    +MIDI interface, MIDI keyboard+

  • Need to make space in my Hard drive to install Logic Studio Upgrade

    ok. Here's my problem:
    I have a 1st generation Mac Book Pro. That means 100Gb of storage.
    I've been using it for professional audio recording since then with Logic Pro (6 or 7 I think) and I made necessary upgrades when they were available in both Mac book and Logic. So, now my Mac has 2.16 GHz processor, 2GB memory RAM and is running Mac OS X 10.6.3
    When it comes to Logic, I am in Logic 8, trying to make the last upgrade of Logic Studio but looks like there's no more space available on my laptop. At this point, I moved any other data that I don't need. My Hard drive is almost full of a data that most of it supposedly needs to be replaced or skipped. I'm talking about additional content of audio coming on Jam Pack, etc... The installation program allow me to put some of the data in other hard drives (about 22.68 GB) but still is not enough.
    Is there any way to solve this? May be uninstalling programs and data that later will be installed again with my upgrade? I don't want to make a mess before asking.
    Probably is time to get a new computer. If this is the only option please somebody tell me! but if is not, I refuse to spend the money. My laptop is working fine...
    Thank you
    Fran

    Well, first i would decide what you need the computer for. If you use iPhoto and iTunes, maybe moving the libraries to external HD may free up a significant amount of HD space.
    Also, look for apps you don't need anymore, look for ancient data that can be zipped&archived away. That's a lot of work, but is worth the time, because you get to know what really is on your HD. I have so many small apps&tools lying around on my HD clogging space, but in fact i only used them once or twice in a lifetime, so better delete them.
    BTW: Make sure you have enough space on your HD not only to install Logic studio but have some extra GB's for the OS to shuffle data around. No OS likes a full HD.
    My strong suggestion would to give your Macbook to a trustworthy Mac store where they install a bigger HD and copy everything over to the new one.

  • Installing Logic Studio 9

    hi there, i have a problem as i am installing logic studio 9 :
    i inserted all the CDs, the install DVD, all the 3 audio, all the 3 jam packs, and now they ask me to insert the CD logic studio additional content, which i did, but it doesn't keep going after that, only i have still the window telling me to insert this cd of additional content but doesn't seem to do anything with it, and there i am stuck after 4hours of installation at 5minutes from the end
    what should i do??
    thanks very much

    Hi there!! im sorry for the late answer i hope you'll see it, or better that you now solved the problem!
    so, actually after calling apple following the problem with the last disc when installing logic pro 9, they told me that actually it was A FAULTY CD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    as i got it while in school, i tried with one of their CDs, which worked!
    i said that to the apple when calling, cause maybe the installation worked with the last CD from my school, but then if i have to re-ainstall it it's theirs! so what do i do??!
    so they actually sent me another of this CD.
    morality i went mad thinking i was being seriously stupid and i wasnt even close!
    she told me also that there had been all a period (the one when i got my logic at the begining 2011) where the Logic sold where somehow faulty , good to know after you've pulled all your hair off of your head!^^^^^
    so take care & enjoy ; )

  • Can't install Logic Studio 9 on clean install of Mavericks due to "powerpc applications not supported" error message

    Hello -
    I've recently performed a clean install of Mavericks on my MBP.  I then attempted to install Logic Studio but was met with the error message "You can't open the application "LogicStudio.mpkg" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."  Mavericks was installed as an upgrade prior to the clean install, and at that time Logic Studio functioned normally.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Logic 9 or 8?
    There is a bug in the installer program of Logic that makes Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks think that it is PowerPC. 
    Best solution would have been to install Logic BEFORE you upgraded to Mavericks, but before you backup, wipe and start all over, try to use Pacifist to install it and please report back.

    Seems that you have to update Logic to the latest version (9.0.15) to get it to work in Lion.

    The installer for Logic Pro 8 has a bug which keeps it from operating in Lion or Mt. Lion.  Use the program Pacifist to install it.
