Logic 9 Pro won't load apple loops library or EXS24 Instruments!

First off, specs:
I'm running 9.1.8 on OSX 10.8.2
I recently purchased a brand new 13" MacBook Pro (early this december) and used migration assistant to transfer my accounts, apps, and such from my old hard drive to my new one. Everything seems to be in its place and running fine, except for Logic 9 Pro.
Whenever I load up a session featuring the EXS24 sampler, the loading bar will hang up upon loading the instrument, eventually turn into the spinning wheel of death, and become unresponsive. This also happens when I create a new session, open up a new instance of EXS24, and attempt to load a patch. All of the other stock Apple instruments load up just fine.
I also noticed that Logic can't locate my Apple Loops Library, as every option in the loop browser is grayed out. I went into my library folder and found the EXS patches as well as the Apple loops, so I know they're there!
Unfortunately, I don't have a Logic 9 CD (It came preinstalled on my previous computer), so to my knowledge reinstallation isn't an option, unless there's a way to reinstall Logic 9 without a CD and without losing my license. I've already tried the following to resolve this issue:
- Reindexing spotlight
- Reindexing loop browser
- Disabling spotlight on the volume where the Logic files reside
- Deleting the Logic 9 preference file
If anyone has any insight or a way to reinstall Logic 9 Pro without a CD and without losing my license, it'd be greatly appreciated!

Hi
You probably need to re-index the Loop Library.
In Logic 9 control click on the Loop Library and choose "Reindex"
In Logic X use the Loops Menu at the top and again, choose "ReIndex".
If that does not do it, you may need to manually remove the Index files

Logic pro won't load plug-ins

Hey!
I know that there are several discussions about this, but i think this problem that i've got is quite unique.
I am using Mountain Lion on a Macbook Pro with Logic pro 9.
I was using the following plug-ins:
*Sausage fattener
*Massive
*Sylenth1
*Nexus
The problem here is that yesterday, i shut down my computer, when i woke up and started Logic, it was saying:
Logic pro: Plug-in "Nexus" not available.
Logic pro: Plug-in "Sylenth1" not available.
So i restarted the computer and now it has added:
Logic pro: Plug-in "Sausage fattener" not available.
Massive still works though.
I checked the vst folders and everything, deleted it and reinstalled, restarted my computer but NOTHING works.
Do anyone have a clue what to do? Been googeling all day..
Cheers!

Those are all 32bit plugins...
So start up Logic Pro in 32bit mode and see if that fixes things...
Resolution
To switch Logic between 32- and 64-bit mode:
Quit Logic Pro, if it is running.
Navigate to and select the Logic Pro application in the Applications folder.
Choose File, then Get Info.
Select the "Open in 32-bit mode" checkbox to run Logic Pro in 32-bit mode. Deselect the checkbox to run Logic Pro in 64-bit mode.
My guess is you changed modes..
Note: The 32bit plugins will also show up in 64bit mode under the 32bit plugin area of the drop down menu... (and then they use the 32bit to 64bit bridge program automatically) so you might need to just run LP in 32bit mode and then again in 64bit mode to fully revalidate them again..

Menu option: Add to Apple Loops Library

Hi,
I'm using David Nahmani's Logic Pro lesson book for level 1 certification. In this lesson (lesson 7 on page 264), when I open the "Add to Apple Loops Library" window, the items TYPE and SCALE should be choosable, but they are grayed out.
As the book indicates, to turn a region into an Apple Loop it must be a whole integer in length. The one I created is. It's a two bar region, just as the book told me to create, from 5 1 1 1 to 7 1 1 1, which the help tag also indicates.
Continuing on in the lesson anyway, with the TYPE and SCALE choices not accessible, results in an Apple Loop that is different than what the results in the book show in three ways. In the Loop Browser, when searching for and finding my newly created Apple Loop, 1) The tempo information column should indicate the tempo 73, but it indicates 0. 2) The % results column should indicate 98%, but it indicates 0%, and 3) the "Play in" pulldown menu should alter the key of the loop, but all choices result in the same original key. I don't know why the TYPE and SCALE items were grayed out, and I don't know why the other problems are occurring as well.
There are 5-6 other basic components to this that I rechecked over and over to make sure I was following the directions exactly and it seems I have. If anyone has any ideas I'd greatly appreciate hearing them.
Thank you,
Aaron

Logic Pro won't open a Logic arrangement created in Logic Pro Educational

Anyone experiencing this unusual problem. I am running a fully registered copy of Logic Pro on my MacBookPro. My client is using Logic Pro Educational copy, which expires in a few weeks from now. I have tried to open his arrangement/song files on my system. My Logic Pro won't even recognise what kind of file it is. Anyone know why this is happening? Very, very annoying when this is my line of work and income. If it's a security issue, then it should be the other way around. He shouldn't be able to open my files, hence me paying £700 for my licience. Any advice from anyone would be most helpful. I know someone will probably say...'well get your client to buy a full copy of Logic Pro' ... But it still won't solve this problem in accessing this work. Sometimes Apple...arghhhh!

Thanks for your response. We actually tried it with another user who uses an educational copy. It worked straight away without any problems on his system. 'Corrupt file' is the error I'm getting though, so you're right there. The only thing I can think of is I'm using a MacBookPro and they are using the older Macs. Could it be a strange Intel problem? Very weird. Would love to get to the bottom of this. I am going to try loading it up on my friend's G5 to see if this is the case.
Thanks.
Nick.

My MacBook Pro won't load any websites on Safari (except this site, Facebook and Google), Opera, or Mozilla Firefox. I already did the "Reset Safari", restarted the computer half a dozen times, and I can't find this alleged "caches.db" file to delete.

My MacBook Pro won't load any websites on Safari (except this site, Facebook and Google). Opera and Mozilla Firefox won't load any sites whatsoever. I already did the "Reset Safari" several times, restarted the computer half a dozen times, and I can't find this alleged "caches.db" file to delete. I virus scanned the computer with Sophos, Avast, and iAntiVirus and it looks clean.

Is iAntiVirus the best virus protection to use for a MacBook?
The best anti-virus protection is your own common sense, and what you already bought and paid for with your Mac. Third party products such as "iAntiVirus" convey no additional benefit, and as you already determined are very capable of causing trouble.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

I installed Lion OS X and Logic Pro won't run. I downloaded the 9.1.5 update: "An Eligible Logic Pro Version Was Not Found in the Applications Folder. This Update require Logic Pro Version 9.0 or higher". I have Logic Pro Version 9.1.1 installed.

I even pulled the dmg file into the Logic Studio folder in my applications directory and it still does not recognize it. What do I do now?

Niel: Thanks.
For others benefit, here is what happened.
I had installed Logic Studio 9.1 some time ago.......not knowing what all the programs were nor what they did, I created a "Logic Studio" subfolder in my applications folder and put all Logic Studio programs into it so I'd know where they were and could review each at my leisure over time.
My assumption now is that when the updater looks for the Logic Pro program, it looks only in the applications folder. It seems lame that it would not also look in the subfolders of the applications folder, but that apparently IS the way it works. Because my Logic Pro program was located in the "Logic Studio" subfolder, the updater just didn't see it..hence the error message I received when I tried to update.
Solution: I moved all the Logic Studio programs out of the subfolder and now they reside in the applications folder. Ran the 9.1.5 updater and it worked like a charm.

Apple TV won't load complete Aperture library

I have a large Aperture library back to 2002. Apple TV 2 won't load the library further than 2008, despite it being checked all the way back to 2002 in Home Sharing. How do I get it to load the whole thing? Is there a limit? I am working with a MacBook, Snow Leopard, and Aperture 3. Thanks.

I couldn't say for sure if there is a limit to the size of a photo library, but there have been problems reported when using large libraries. How many photos do you have, mention has been made to problems with libraries of over 20,000.

Apple's Videos App on iPad won't load my shared library

Hi,
I've been looking for an answer to this problem for ages!
Symptoms/context:
You have all your movies onto one big drive
You have uncheck Preferences|Advanced|"Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library"
(this way all titles will be linked to your big drive, not copied)
You have drag/drop those movies from your big drive in Finder into your iTunes Movies library
You have enabled Home Sharing (File|Home Sharing|Turn On Home Sharing)
You have disabled the old way of sharing (Preferences|Sharing tab|Uncheck "Share my library on my local network")
You have proudly added a very nice artwork for each of your movie so that you'll get nice thumbnails in iTunes
by using Identify.app
or by looking on the web for the best artwork (i.e. flickfacts.com), saving it locally, then drag/drop on your movie in iTunes (Get Info|Artwork)
You're using Apple's Videos app to load your shared library on you iPad
(Start Videos app,select your Shared library,wait a while,then all your thumbnails are displayed fine)
Then as the days go by, you realize that loading your library is taking more and more time, up until that day when all **** brakes loose and you get stuck at the small round clock progress bar, and you wait and wait but no thumbnails is coming up anymore. You reset everything to no avail. What happened?!!
Well here's what I had to do to fix that problem:
Everything is about movie thumbnails!
In my case I had an overhead of 0.5GB of thumbnails for 650 movies! That's an overhead alright! By overhead I mean that the sum of all my thumbnails was 500MB, so the Videos app had to load this (maybe not entirely at once but...) every time you start the app and select your shared library. This explain why the app get slower and slower has you add new movies, thus new thumbnails/artworks.
But this doesn't really explain why ultimately the Videos app stops loading all of a sudden!
I realize the iTunes doesn't like:
Movie that doesn't show the correct icon preview in Finder
Invalid movie formats - I'll explain later
Big thumbnails
Read all 3 steps and don't forget the last paragraph at the end.
Movies that doesn't show the correct icon preview in Finder
Ultimately, I think that was the main problem of all my 3 steps
In Finder, enable the Icon Preview:
View|Show View Options|Check "Show Icon Preview"
You should now be able to see you thumbnails like this in Finder:
VALID:
INVALID:
But if you see any of these icons, the Videos app on the iPad might stumble a bit when loading the library
or
If that's the case for some of your movies, you'll have to make sure that ALL your movies have a proper thumbnail.This can be achieve:
by using Identify.app - see (note1)
or by looking on the web for the best artwork (i.e. flickfacts.com), saving it locally, then drag/drop on your movie in iTunes (Get Info|Artwork)
Once the thumbnail is corrected, it should display fine in Finder and iTunes
Invalid movie formats
There might be some cases where even after correcting the thumbnail in step 1., this icon still remains invalid.
If that's the case, you'll need to:
Either delete the movie altogether and rip it again
or reconvert it. For example with iSkySoft iMedia Converter Deluxe has a "Speed conversion" option that allows you to reconvert a 2.5GB movie in about 5 min. After the re-conversion I just had to do step 1. and all was fine, and the thumbnail would show well in Finder/iTunes.
Big thumbnails - may be optional
To speed up the loading of the movie library you have to reduce the size of the artwork that you insert into each of your movie's metadata:
Get the artwork on the web (i.e. flickfacts.com) and preferably a .jpg format,and save it locally
Open your movie file with Preview (Apple's preview app)
Tools | Adjust Size
Fit into: 640x480 pixels + OK
Save As (press Option before Saving) and save it in another folder (I called my folder "Reduced to 640x480")
Note: if you want to do this on a bunch of files at once: select all your files in Finder, right click and select Open. All you .jpgs will be opened in Preview. Then Ctrl-A to select all in Preview, then you can resize them all)
You'll noticed that a 1.5MB artwork can easily reduced as small as 50K-200K.
For example, I went from 500MB to 72MB for all my artworks. Much smallest overhead wouldn't you say?!
Now comes the part you'll all love : you need to remove ALL your old big artworks for ALL your iTunes movies:
in iTunes | Movies
Right click on a movie|Get Info|Artwork tab|Select the artwork|Delete
Drag/drop your newly reduced .jpg to that same window
Click OK to save.
You can't do that in batch, you have to do each manually like this (if anyone has a better idea, I'm all ears)
See (note1)
(note1) Important: If you use a program like Identify.app to retrieve the metadata/artwork, I'm pretty sure the size of the automatically retrieved artwork is quite big by default (around 1.5MB-2MB) so you might wanna be careful here and use it to retrieve the movie's metadata, but after that do step 3. to replace the artwork with a smaller one.
VERY IMPORTANT
Once step 1, 2 are completed (and I had already completed the optional step 3) you have to remove all movies from iTunes (see note, next sentence ) and drag/drop them all back from your drive to your iTunes Movies window. BEFORE REMOVING ALL MOVIES FROM iTUNES, make sure that the option (Preferences|Advanced|"Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library") was uncheck. If it was checked, I'm pretty sure it will delete all your movies on disk, not only in iTunes!!! - you'll have to investigate this yourselves or make sure you have a good backup copy of your movies first.
Since I've done all this, my iPad's Videos app is taking about 10-20 sec to load my over than 600 movies library
Pfew!!
Have fun gang,
Jean

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

Hmm, very strange, never seen this message before. Have you tried going into Disk Utility and running a "Repair Disk Permissions" on your Macintosh HD? Can't guarantee it will fix the problem, but worth a try.. If you get really stuck, the simplest thing to do is just to uninstall Logic and then reinstall it, apply updates etc.. and try 64 bit again.

How long does it take for Logic Pro 8 to load on your system?

Hi I just spent a few hours installing Logic on a new laptop and started freaking out because Logic Pro 8 wouldn't load. After I click the application the screen pops up I see it's loading, then the templates appear and I choose one... after that - that's it, nothing's moving I am just staring at the screen, when I nervously opened the Force Quit screen to check status I see it not responding so I closed it from there.
So I tried a few times over and in fact was going to stop the post there but then during last time when I didn't do force quit as I was tying this message Logic Pro opened up with the template ready to go.
So I tried it a few times while always monitoring the status on force quit window. And it seems to be going on the same pattern. Assuming I have a file saved so it doesn't give me templates, ok, after I click Logic Pro I see a freed loading screen with files running then everything disappears for about a minute. During that time if I look in the force quit window it shows Logic Pro as not responding then you can see it goes back and it starts fullscreen and everything is ok.
Meanwhile none of the other apps have that problem, Soundtrack and Waveburner all start up right away.
So I am wondering if anyone else has these slow startup. I don't know, I did download almost all sound DVDs excluding two jam packs, in case it matters, in case that's what takes so long to load.

Logic pro won't start

I purchased Pro through App Store. When I try to start the program a dialogue box comes up saying: "Logic is automatically downloading an essential collection of instruments and settings...". It downloads, then shuts down. Everytime I try to open the program the process repeats. What do I do?

Not sure if this will help, as it may not be related to what you're experiencing...
But in the past, when Logic wouldn't start. it was always recommended to trash the Logic preferences, and then re-launch the program.
Logic preferences are located in user > LIbrary > Preferences > com.apple.logic.pro.plist
drag that file to your desktop, and try again. Hope that helps...
