Logic Crashes when I open old songs

So I've been doing all my productions on a Mac G5 using Logic Express 7.1. I just bought a Mac Book Pro and updated to Logic Express 7.2.3. All the songs I did on the other Mac won't open.. Logic immediately crashes as soon as I try to launch...

Logic crashes when I open a particular file...
As the old joke goes...
"Well, don't open it then..."
The first things to do is make some backups of what you have, just in case. Then try booting Logic without the audio drivers (or turn them off) and see if you can load the song.
Also, try deactivating your third-party plugs (a snap with AUManager, or move them temporarily out of your components folder), and seeing whether it will load then.
I would guess that the song is corrupted, so once you can get it to load, I would suggest you start copying all the necessary stuff (regions, automation, channel settings etc etc) into a new, uncorrupted song.
Also, you can try and go back through your auto-numbered backup files, assuming you have the function turned on - you might be able to open a version of the song before the corruption. And if you didn't have that autobackup feature turned on - well, I suggest you do from now on!
If you get no joy doing all that, post back and we'll go from there.

Logic crashes when I open a particular file

Hi, Logic just started crashing on me and usually I could reopen the file, undo a few levels and carry on...However I seem to have saved something just before a crash which actually caused the crash, so that now when I open that file Logic crashes immediately, leaving me no time to get in and undo. Until today it's been running nicely. The file has a 90-minute mpeg4 movie and some AU tracks running. I've already trashed the preferences file, and removed the video file to thre trash so it wouldn't be accessible, but still no go. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Logic crashes when trying to open a Garageband project file

Hey guys,
Since discovering that software instrument apple loops (SIAL) do NOT include the effects/sends when they are imported into logic, a discussion on here mentioned that when opened in Garageband, the effects are included. The suggestion was that by opening a garageband project in logic, the effects/sends would all be imported into logic from garage band.
This worked fine for a couple of software instruments such as '80's Dance Bass Synth' but strangely every time i try to open a garageband project file in logic with any of the software instrument loops 'Classic Rock Steel' or 'Southern Rock Guitar' logic crashes trying to open it. It usually loads up until an effect such as channel eq, platinumverb, or ducker and then stops loading and freezes.
It is really odd that it seems to be related to those guitar loops. So i was wondering if anyone has a fix, or if someone could spare a minute of their time and make a garageband project with a 'Southern Rock Guitar 2' software loop and try to open this project file in Logic - just to see if it is a problem with my logic, or if it is the same for everybody.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
Nick.

Logic crashes when trying to save/quit or open in 10.6.8

Logic crashes when trying to save/quit or open in 10.6.8 on Logic 9.1.4
Done everything like repair permissions etc.
Reinstalled both Logic and OS 10.6 (then updated to 10.6.8)
Still doing it.
Any advice guys?

OK,
I have installed logic 9.1.5 from the apple site and run that, still same problem.. so i have finally managed to get my hands on the logic 9 disc.. it says on the apple site to remove logic 9 from your mac, to simply drag the logic app to trash and reinstall. i did this with 10.6.0 installed and run it and still error. I then combo updated to .4 .6 and to .7 without updating logic still error.. Then i have combo updated to 10.6.8 still error.. finally i installed the 9.1.5 update direct from the site on 10.6.8 and that hasnt worked either..
My question is, even though on the apple site it says to drop the app to the bin and reinstall, does this remove all necessary files? or do i have to do it manually and if so can someone tell me exactly what needs to go,before i try a proper reinstall.
Thanks

It was in fact a conflict with Suitcase Fusion 2 or a corrupt font. What I did to resolve it was delete all the fonts from Suitcase using the following method.
#Deleting Fonts from a Library
Removing a font from one library does not remove it from all libraries. If you have the same font in another library, it will remain until removed.
To delete fonts from a library:
Launch Suitcase Fusion and select a library.
Select the fonts, families, or sets you want to delete.
Choose Edit > Delete Font(s), or press Delete.
When the alert asks you to confirm the deletion, click Remove.
I then used Font Doctor (included with Suitcase) to examine my master font library, located on my harddrive, to ensure there were no corrupt fonts.
I changed the preference in Suitcase to add the fonts leaving them in place. I am not certain that this has any impact on the outcome but I am old school and like to manage my fonts from the harddrive.
Finally, I added 1 set at a time to Suitcase, activated it, opened 64 bit Photoshop and selected the type tool. If the program did not crash, I repeated this step until all sets were added.
I ran into the exact same problem while opening Adobe Photoshop CS4 64-bit on my Windows7 machine.
I presumed Extensis Suitcase Fusion 2 were the culprit. Alas, removing the fonts from Suitcase did not solve my problem.
Instead, i proceeded to this folder:
1. C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Adobe Photoshop CS4 Settings
2. Deleted the file Adobe Photoshop X64 CS4 Prefs.psp
3. Re-opened Photoshop CS4 64-bit and success. Problem solved.
Ignore the above. This only solved opening photoshop. The application still crashes when I open the text tool.

Logic crashes when i save

i updated to tiger, cleared my harddrive, and i now use two firepods, and all of a suden when I select save song as project, logic saves the song but it crashes. anyone have any pointers?

I am having the same problem and I have installed the latest pro application update (3.1). I use Logic 7.0.1 but am waiting for the 7.2 update in the mail.
Logic crashes when I try to save a song using the "save as...", "Save as template", "Save as Project" commands.
The song does get saved properly, though.
Logic also crashes when exporting MIDI files. In that case I do loose everyhing I did since my last save.
When I use the normal "save" command Logic does not crash.
I tried deleting my autoload song and let Logic startup it's own one, but then the problem still occurs.
I read about "deleting the preferences" in an archived thread about this subject, but I don't know how to do that.
Can anybody help me with this?

Logic crashes when project loads Arturia Wurlitzer V

When loading recent project, Logic crashes when it gets to loading Arturia Wurlitzer V with error: read_size = =bytesize. Able to use Wurlitzer in new project. Is this Arturia problem or Logic problem? This started originally when I was working on the project, and it crashed.

I've got a PDF manual for the Arturia Minimoog (I told you it was late last night) and there is a Configuration page there - that could be worth having a check over for the equivalent - there's always a balance between your processor speed/RAM/communication speeds and I don't exactly know what you're trying to run that on.
The loading time for that plug-in does seem to suggest that it uses a bit more memory, but if you break me open like a stick of candy, I'm a good 80% musician in the middle, so what do I know...he he..

Just updated to the newest version of Firefox and it keeps crashing when I open the browser. I tried opening it with add-ons disabled and it still keeps crashing. Crash ID: bp-03b36d11-304e-4f80-ab9e-79b7f2111223

I just updated to the newest version of firefox for my mac laptop. It keeps crashing when I open the browser and does so even in safe mode. Laptop is about two years old. Might it be an issue with the OS? I have not updated to Leopard yet.

It seems that the problem is related to fonts.
(1) How were you updating your operating system ?
If you use *_Software Update_*, hurry up, download and apply the combo updater available from :
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1361
but CAUTION, this update introduce a serious problem with some fonts. At this time the only workaround available is to reinstall 10.6 tyhen apply the combo updater 10.6.6 available from :
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1349
(2) if you didn't used *_Software Update_*, run a maintenance tool like the free MAINTENANCE available from :
http://www.titanium.free.fr/index_us.html
Apply it to clear caches files, mainly those dedicated to fonts.
It would be also a good idea to check the health of your fonts with FontBook.

Any help would be appreciated.

One of the bug reports linked to your crashes says the HTTPS Everywhere extension could be a contributing factor. Would you try disabling it for 48 hours and see whether that makes any difference?
You can do that on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions.
Some of these crashes are related to the "Just in Time" (JIT) JavaScript compiler(s). You could try disabling some of those features to see whether that helps. Alternately, you could run Firefox in its Safe Mode for a period of time since that disables them automatically (but in that case, extensions also are disabled).
''To disable individual preferences:''
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''javas''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the following preferences to switch them to "false":
* javascript.options.baselinejit.chrome (Firefox UI)
* javascript.options.baselinejit.content (page content)
* javascript.options.ion.content (page content)
There might be other relevant items but we're a little out of my depth here.
''If you prefer to test using Firefox's Safe Mode:''
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still run)''
In the small dialog that should appear after Firefox exits, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)

In logic Pro, when I open up an audio track and load an audio file, there is no sound. I will finally get a sound out of one of the audio tracks after opening at least 5 of them alternately. Is anyone familiar with this kind of bug? It's really frustratin

In logic Pro, when I open up an audio track or software track and load an audio file/loop or software file loop, there is no sound. I will finally get a sound out of one of the audio or software tracks after opening at least 5 of them alternately. Is anyone familiar with this kind of bug? It's really frustrating as this takes much time to complete work.

I'm not sure I follow your words Fuzzynormal. You've helped by offering the insight that my issue in Logic Pro 9 is not a bug but a feature. But fell short of enlightenment by being a judge of character and of how one should interact in this forum. You insinuate that I haven't tried to solve the issue on my own when in fact I have. These forums are always my last resort. You further suggest that I am complaining. This is not a complaint. It is a genuine issue that I cannot figure out. Then you think that Brazeca is holding my hand and being a nice guy. Brazeca is helping people like me who might not be as adept at using Logic Pro as probably you are.This community forum was established to raise questions, answers and dicussion to help Apple's customers better undertand their operating systems and related issues. You are doing a disservice by not contributing positively and by trying to make this forum what you want it to be. You may have all the time in the world to try figuring out stuff but we are not all like you. We all have different schedules and different levels of understanding. And that is what this forum is for - to help people move forward. If you can't contribute positively then keep silent. And by the way, you say to "read the words that are printed down to explain to you how that works" what words are you talking about? Why don't you be of some help instead of trying to own this forum.

Finder crashes occur both on my MacBook Pro (4,1) and MacBook Air (2,1). There is very little in common between the hardware of the two systems except the Santa Rosa processor. One has HDD and the other SSD. One has 6GB in DDR2 memory in two dimms and one 2GB DDR3 soldered. One has an 8600M and one a 9400. One starts a bunch of apps at login and one starts nothing. And so on. Since it happens on different kinds of systems, it's definitely not a hardware problem with certain specific hardware. And I'm pretty sure I saw a report from someone with a MacPro.
I've looked at a lot of finder crash logs. A number of them seem to happen when something (memory or an object) is being freed and an error occurs. This causes an abort and the finder is killed and restarts. Not exactly a "crash". More like controlled flight into the ground. The other cases are probably not catching the error and getting seg faults, so those actually are crashes. Unfortunately, the place this happens seems to be different every time but usually related to finder or AppKit.
I suspect a memory corruption bug somewhere. I've pushed my system by opening and closing
folders, scrolling up and down, and opening and closing subfolders, and once the problem happens, it is usually reproducible for a few minutes (or a few repeats of the action that caused the crash).
Then it will often "magically" start working or a slight variation of behavior, e.g., opening a folder directly vs. using a finder window sidebar alias (or vice-versa) will work.

Photoshop crashing when I open jpeg or create new

I recently upgraded my Capture One software to v.4 (which included the installation of microsoft .net framework. Now Photoshop crashes when I open a jpeg file or create a new.
I did notice that when it opens the Initializing Type Tool progress bar doesn't show up and I just noticed on the blue start up window something called "Building TWAIN" - I had read in a previous thread about a TWAIN plug in attaching itself to photoshop. Could that be my problem?
How do I find that file?

It's in the plug-in folder!
Since you failed to mention either your OS or PS versions I can't be more specific.
