Logic pro 8 to logic studio 9

After having logic studio 9 for a long time my computer crashed so I used a time machine backup and I was back on logic pro 8 and now it says I'm entering the wrong serial # or to enter an sxkey help please!, thanks

Your version of Logic 9 will have a different serial number than Logic 8.  Do you have your Logic 8 serial number written down or stored somewhere?
Also, it's possible to contact Apple Support and see if they can issue you a new serial number for Logic 8, but you need some kind of proof of purchase.  I had to do that as I lost the paperwork that had my serial number on it, but because I still had my receipt from purchasing Logic 8 they were able to issue me a new serial number.

  • Installing logic studio 9, soundtrack pro and loops utility greyed out

    Hi,
    I'm trying to reinstal logic studio 9 and on the screen where you select and deselect the instal options soundtrack pro (and therefore compressor) are labelled as skip and greyed out not allowing select. The same is true for the apple loops utility. I'm pretty sure i removed all the files of previous instal. Anyone help?

    nevermind i found this thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/10690183#10690183

  • Logic Studio comes with quicktime 7 Pro.   where is it?

    as the box indicates in the "contents" section beside the requirements section in the top side of the box, it gives the list of all the softwares that come with logic studio (e.i. logic pro, soundtrack pro2, waveburner, compressor... blah blah blah all that... but it says close to the end: quicktime PRO 2, which i guess is a "better" version, or it has more features... i dont know. the thing is i dont quite see that i actually have it installed on my mac. when i open quicktime and check on the "about quicktime.." it says its only quicktime.. but doesnt say anything about being PRO 2. its also the 7.5.5 version...
    Since i installed everything from logic studio.. and still cant seem to find a way to see that QT pro 2 has been installed on my mac, can anyone explain to me what could be happening?
    thanks.

    This has had a lot of people confused. Logic doesn't actually come with any software for Quicktime Pro, because you already have it imbedded into the regular version of Quicktime. When you buy QTP, or buy something like Logic that includes it, it simply 'unlocks' your regular version of Quicktime, which allows you access to a bunch of features that regular Quicktime didn't have.
    Open System Preferences->Quicktime, and it should say: 'Registered To: Apple Pro Apps User' and 'Registration Code: Automatic.' You'll also notice that the 'Q' graphic on that window has a little 'PRO' tag on it too.
    If you were still running the regular Quicktime, when you went to the QT Player, and dropped down any of the menus from the menubar, most of the options would be grayed out and say 'Pro Only,' or something like that. Now all of the options in those menus will be available.
    And yes, it should be version 7.5.5.

  • Logic Studio on my new Mac Book Pro

    I had one install of my Logic Studio on my imac and one on my old Mac Book. I bought a new Mac Book Pro and gave my old one to to my daughter. I reinstall all my iMac content to my new Mac Book via Time Machine synch. When i start Logic it asked me the key and when i put the key it declined, saying key is not right while i have original printed key which i have tried may time on this Mac book but it does not recognized this key. This iis the same key i install the first time. How should i make my Logic works on my new Mac Book. I am willing to erase from my old Mac Book if i know for sure it will work on the new one.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't think your problem is with the other installs.  I have logic pro installed in 4 places.  It will however only let me run one instance at a time because it checks over the network.
    I think some how you are entering the wrong key.  Or perhaps your key is for a much earlier version of logic?   You might want to contact apple if you are sure your key is correct and valid.

  • Why my Logic Studio 9 (upgrade) does not install Soundtrack Pro, sound effects etc..?

    I just bought Logic Studio 9 (latest I suppose) upgrade version. Now I figured out that it does not allow me to install for example Soundtrack Pro, Sound Effects etc... How can I install them?
    Logic Studio 8 was not installed prior to install because OS X Lion does not allow me to install logic studio 8.
    What should I do now? Complete uninstall OS X and only update to OS X Leopard?

    Hi
    You have either moved the Applications or re-named them. For the updaters to work the Apps must be named "Logic Pro" and "MainStage.

  • I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

    Same here, I have Logic Studio 8 and wouldn't mind staying with that version, except that the installer won't run on my new Macbook Pro as PowerPC apps are no longer supported. That's the message I get in any case.
    I use to run Logic on a 2006 Macbook Pro.
    I guess that makes me a very unhappy Apple user! I've been using Logic from the Emagic days, bought every upgrade only to see Apple kill what used to be one of the best Pro Audio application. Imagine if they had done the same to Photoshop, there would be a lot of unhappy designers out there
    Paying the full price for years to slowly see your daily app go down in price & efficiency until it's given away at $199 for semi pro users. Well, at least ProTools is stil alive & kicking so I guess that's the way forward now.
    This is coming from someone that never ever used a Windows machine to make music! Life is good still!

  • Difference between Logic Pro 9 and Logic Studio?

    I have garage band and I notice that the instruments available are extremely limited, so I am looking to upgrade solely for the idea of getting more instruments and more features. Does the app store Logic Pro 9 have the extensive amount of official instruments to download for free? Or are there additional costs if you are looking to purchase the instruments for the app store logic 9?
    I know that the studio version has mainstage, compressor and other programs etc, but what I am looking to find out is if there is a difference between what instruments, resources and materials found in the $210 Logic 9 and the Logic Studio version that you can't download for free from inside Logic 9?
    Thanks

    The instruments themselves are embedded within the Logic application, with the exception of the sample libraries for the EXS24 and Ultrabeat. All of the content, including the various Jampacks and sample libraries are available to download

    No.... free

    The "Studio" DVD's include the now defunct Soundtrack Pro, which had around 20G of loops, beds and sound FX. Some of that material is now available for Final Cut X.
    A few utility programs are also missing (Waveburner etc).

    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.

  • Logic express and pro 7 to logic studio 9 upgrade question

    I have logic express 7, logic studio 7, and just upgraded to logicstudio 9, but my serial number is not recognized. All my copies should be registered with apple already, so how should i best remedy this?

    Hi again and thanks for the reply.
    I tried to follow your instructions but isn't working still. I think I did something wrong. Here is what I did:
    1. Went to Midi Setup, double clicked on IAC driver and then checked the "device is online" box. It says its on Bus 1.
    2a. In pro tools, went to peripherals, at the synchronization tab I left MTC reader port: ANY and put MTC Generator Port: IAC Driver, Bus 1
    2b. Then went to the Machine Control tab, enabled MIDI Machine Control and set it to IAC Driver, Bus 1.
    3a. In Logic Express I went to preferences>Midi>Sync and selected listen to MMC Input and took Midi Clock off. I see where it says MTC but there isn't a place to make it the slave.
    I know I'm not doing this right because I hit play on Pro Tools and Logic Express just laughs at me
    Can you help me through this. I'm a novice with Macs and Syncing.
    Thanks again friend.

  • How can I upgrade the solo version of Logic Pro 9 to Logic Studio?

    I just would like to know how and where to upgrade logic pro to logic studio

    First of all, Erik is correct.. Logic Studio has been discontinued.. However, there are a few copies left around I am sure... to purchase if you really wanted to...
    But.....
    Unless you really want Waveburner and Soundtrack Pro 3..(Neither of which have been updated for at least a couple of years now..)  there is little point in buying Logic Studio 2... as it will cost you $499... and you can buy Compressor and Mainstage (the other two parts of Logic Studio) for much less than that on the App Store.... and the additional content (that actually took up most of the DVDs in the boxed set) can be downloaded for free within Logic Pro itself.
    I think a newer version is soon to be announce.
    Not of Logic Studio there won't be.. I believe boxed sets of Logic are long dead and gone... and won't be seen again... It's all App Store products from now on...
    There may well be a newer version of Logic Pro on the way.. but no one knows when.... until Apple announce it.

  • Logic Studio isnt showing up anywhere on my macbook pro

    I just bought a macbook pro and logic, installed logic all the way and it asked me to put in the original Logic Studio Install disk, it said it was installed, ejected the disk, now i cant find it in applications or in the finder? i've just reinserted the studio install disk and it says it has 12 gb of data to install, as opposed to the original 55 gb? Whats up?

    Nevermind, the installer repeated itself three times over and on the third time for some reason it worked.

  • Mac Book Pro going to keep up with Logic Studio

    I am looking at purchasing a mac book pro 17" and would like to know if it is sufficient for Logic Studio use or if I should budget for a Pro Mac tower configuration.

    Simon, I think you should fess up that the comparison here is made gainst a G5 running ProToolsLE, which is the same as filling up a Toyota Corolla's boot (trunk, for those in the other world), with concrete and driving it up the biggest hill you can find... with the air conditioner on.
    I have Logic running on a G5 2x2 and a MacbookPro 2.2. Both are comparable with the same sessions, though the screen redraws on the MBPro are a fair bit snappier. The video card would adequately account for that, as the G5's card is 64meg and the MBPro is 128meg and a whole lot newer.. I believe Simons is actually 256meg.
    The video performance doesn't effect audio performance at all.

  • Is macbook or macbook pro the best for logic studio

    I was wondering if i just bought a macbook and maxxed it out would pro logic 8 run good on it or should i just invest in a macbook pro? I guess my question is what is the difference in the 2 as pertaining to running pro logic studio? I would also be installing battey and the komplete synth line from native instruments as well..just to verify my usage.....thanx

    Lots of people are running Logic Studio on MBs with no trouble. I'd definitely max out your RAM if you're using Komplete. And you probably want the biggest hard drive you can get, so that Logic doesn't take up all the space on it--some of the content can be installed on an external, but a lot of it has to be on your system drive.

  • Pro Applications Update 2008-02 Update for Logic Studio Owners?

    I received Compressor 3.0.3 as part of the Logic Studio 8 bundle.
    Pro Applications Update 2008-02 states that it upgrades Compressor 3.0.3, however, Software Update does not offer to update Compressor nor can I download it manually since it is demanding that I provide a Final Cut Pro serial number (which I do not have, I have only the Logic Studio serial number which it won't take).
    Does anyone have any idea what Logic Studio owners are supposed to do to obtain Pro Applications Update 2008-02?
    Dave

    Well, I would agree except that the update specifically provides an update for Compressor 3.0.3 which Logic Studio owners have as well and the update description states that it is recommended for all Logic Studio users.
    "Pro Applications Updates improve reliability for Apple's professional applications and are recommended for all users of Final Cut Studio, Final Cut Server, and Logic Studio.
    Pro Applications Update 2008-02 addresses installation issues, compatibility updates, and general performance issues and improves overall stability.
    Applications included in the update:
    Final Cut Pro 6.0.4
    Compressor 3.0.3"

  • How to run Pro Tools 7.4 LE and Logic Studio 8.0.2, simultaneously..

    My setup: single Quad Core 2.8GHz 8GB of RAM, running Logic Studio 8.0.2 (projectmix)
    Single 1.8 GHz G5 running Pro Tools LE 7.4 (digi 002 rack)
    I want to set up Logic (as master) as my main sequencer, to run Pro Tools for audio.
    What's the best setup?
    1. Midi the two interfaces together, sync by MTC, or Midi Clock….if so, what are the settings, as I had an unsuccesful run at it using MTC...
    or
    2. Run both programs on my Quad Core - is there a way to have Logic run Pro Tools on the same machine - with two different interfaces on separate firewire ports?
    Any info would be appreciative.
    Thanks

    I did the following:
    Set up the audio output for the Logic to be the internal sound card, and hook up this via Digital lightpipe to the Digi002 rack lightpipe inputs, set them to SPDIF in the hardware setup page. You'll need a special adaptor to go out of the headphone outs of your mac to turnit into digital signal. Check your Mac's manual for that.
    Then set up an IAC buss for the midi, inside the AudioMidiSetup software,and tell ProTools to send MTC to this IAC buss, while telling Logic to receive MTC via the same IAC buss. Make SURE you ahve the same exact SMPTE and MTC flavor on both amchnes, and also the right sample rate (match it on both)
    Then, set an Aux input in ProTools Le to accept the incoming SPDIF stereo signal from Logic, press play, and they both now synch perfectly.
    Cheers

  • Explore Logic Studio file created by the pros....

    ^ That's what Apple say on their Logic Studio web site: http://www.apple.com/logicstudio/
    Quote: "Learn all the production tricks the pros used to create these hit singles. You can see how every track was crafted, from the original instrument, sample, or loop right through effects, processing, and mixing. Then try out your own ideas and techniques."
    But where are the links to download them?

    Ah! I shall now go and check that Demo Content disk. I've always liked some of the production in Lily Allen's song "Fear".
    I never bothered to install the Demo Content disk as I'm not a Logic virgin. We never stop learning though.
