Logic Pro and downloading additional content trouble.

I just downloaded the latest Logic Pro and opted to download all additional content. Some of the content that finished downloading would ask for my password to finish the download and others would say "cannot be completed" or something like that... When I'm in Logic Pro, if I want to use "Electo-trance" drums, it cannot be found. Did I do something wrong? also, I have 650g of space and computer is only used for school work.

There is another possible fix that I have just been made aware of, thanks to Apple Tech Support...
Go into Energy Saving in System preferences.. and temporarily move the two sliders (for screen sleep and computer sleep) to never, uncheck "Put hard Drives to sleep whenever possible" and then download additional content..
When the downloads are complete, put back these settings to their original state...
For some people this has provided another way of avoiding the 'timeout' if it has not been caused by an ISP's max file limit rule...

  • Logic Pro X Downloading additional content issue

    Hello
    After several tries I still have not completed a download of additional content.
    There is 28.6 GB of content and it has always hung up around 26.5 most annoying, and can't be very good for the bandwidth out of your servers, if I download over 100 GB and fail overtime..
    I routinely download relatively large content files so this really seems strange, could it be the content should be divided up into smaller packages?

    OKay Never Mind I got all the Additional Content... perhaps it was an internet connection problem... I Used Mainstage 3 to get all additional content and Logic pro X reindexed and understood that everything was downloaded and installed...
    No More messages when I start Logic about unfinished downloads when I launch it...
    Everything seems to be working fine now...
    Also I had some Very Old Garage Band Jam Packs which apparently were incomplete... so I deleted all the Old Jam Packs and deleted all the indexing files from 2 locations App Support/Garage Band and App Supprort/Apple
    so now Garageband and Logic Pro X 7 Main Stage know where all the Jam Packs are.... See other posts that explain this in detail i.e. Garage Band Community.

  • Logic Pro X: Downloading Additional Content Glitch

    Everything works fine except for LEGACY GarageBand 1 Instruments & Sounds.... it gets to 96% (Approx. by the Blue Bar) and gets stuck there.
    When I try to Quit I cannot... Logic Pro wont Quit while the DL is stuck so i had to Force Quit.
    When I Go Back to Download Content it Shows as Everything Is Installed... But Legacy GarageBand 1 wants to Pick up where it Left off at 96% and gets stuck there once again.
    Please Advise...

  • Logic Pro X: Install additional content on external hard drive?

    Hi all,
    I'm just wondering if there are any new, official ways to ask Logic Pro X to store the additional content that is downloaded to a different location (e.g., an external hard drive). So far I haven't found anything in the documentation (though maybe I missed it).
    Thanks

    I got it working with symbolic link.
    It's very easy and this is how I did it:
    1. Download this for free:
    https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/10433/symboliclinker
    2. Copy original 'Logic' Folder located in /Volumes/"DRIVE NAME"/Application Support/ on the desired external drive and location.This is the location where all your additional content is beeing installed to.
    3. You can delete the original folder or rename it and use it as a backup.
    4. Use the symbolic link tool to create a symbolic link from the 'Logic' file which has been copied to your external drive.
    Place the link (which looks like an alias) to its previous destination (/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Application Support/) and rename it to 'Logic'.
    5. After this you will be able to download additional content.
    6. Be aware if you want to download 30 GB of content and your SSD has just 20GB free space, it will show you the same error message because it stores the download file still on your SSD until installation is done. The solution for this is to download everything part by part.
    Maybe there is a simpler solution. This was very quick and easy for me. Logic 9 and 10 both work still.
    Hope this helps.

  • Logic pro and mainstage essential content installing problems

    for 2 days now I have had Logic pro and mainstage essential contend down loading in a greyed out box with a moving stripy line in the centre, clearly it is downloading something but for 2 days? how can I get rid of it.

    Thank you for the info I appreciate it!  Was also wondering if the Drummer content downloads faster from Logic Pro X than from Garageband as the Drummer content downloads rather slowly from Garageband. And was figuring that since Logic Pro X is more expensive than Garageband perhaps the servers they use for Logic Pro X would be more faster than Garageband's but I'm just taking a wild guess

  • Can't download additional content in the loops section in Logic pro x, what's the solution?

    Can't download some of the additional contents from the loops in Logic Pro x, whenever I download additional contents it takes it's time to download but then when I quit Logic and start it again, the loops still can't be selected, they aren't getting downloaded, what's the solution ?

    Just click loops , on the top of the panel click loops, and select "reindex all loops".

  • Trying to download additional content for Logic Pro X. My download status is 26.6 GB of 26.6 GB, but Logic will not move any further, not matter what I do. Any suggestions?

    Thanks rhoydotp,
    The download was actually the successful part!  I had no issues with it timing out or anything.  My problem was the actual install, after the download was complete.  The installer just stopped about a quarter of the way up on "Alternative Kits" and never made it to any of the other kits.  I think I'll try installing them one at a time like you said, and see what happens.  Hopefully it works!

  • After downloading and installing additional content, no sound will play. Logic has no connection to sound library. No level meter activity. Right before i installed additional content I was working on a project, and everything was OK.

    Right before i installed the additional content I was working on a project, and everything was OK. What is wrong. How do I make Logic reconnect to the instrument files?

    A small update to this issue....
    I have been trawling the forums to find an answer but to no avail...
    And... I've tried exporting and bouncing individual stems and the full session, either by muting all bar the stem or soloing the stem.....and still nothing.
    Same problems.....everything is audible in audition but nothing plays on playback.
    Since the 'prelisten' channel strip is Solo safe this would indicate that you have a track or channel strip soloed somewhere else, out of sight. Are the Mute buttons on your channel strips blinking?
    To view all objects in your mixer, click the button. You may have to scroll sideways to check the whole mixer.

  • Downloading and Installing 'Additional' Content

    Hi There,
    So I managed to download the 'additional content' - I entered my password to install it and the window popped up saying installing... Then I swiped to a different 'desktop' - I was in full screen mode in Lion - when I returned the installing progress bar window had dissappeard and nothing seemed to be installed. When trying to download it again, it started from 0kb! This kinda ***. It also doesn't say 'installed' in the 'Download Additional Content' window
    Anyone know how to solve this? Or what went wrong in the first place?
    Also does anyone know where the temporary file or 'installer' or whatever get's downloaded? In NZ we still get charged by the gigabyte (yes I know) so I don't wanna have to download 5Gb 7 times until I get it working. So it would be nice to save that file somewhere if that helps at all.
    Thanks guys. Any help GREATLY appreciated.
    Cheers,
    - Malik

    Ok this is sorted. I think watching and waiting and making sure it installed did the trick. So I guess DO NOT minimize Logic while this is going on is the lesson learned from this??
    Watching and waiting to see what happens is always a handy tip.
    Minimising the window isn't the problem - you can quit Logic and it'll ask you if you want to continue the download.
    And answering one's own question is something that we all have to master.

  • Downloaded Logic Pro and won't run

    Downloaded Logic Pro and won't run. Keeps telling me couldn't open due to a problem. It says to update my software or reinstall it but it' won't let update it neither.

    Bought the software in app store, installed it and it just won't run. I have OS X 10.6.8 just donwgraded from lion and safri wouldn't work either since.
    The error window tells me maybe I should re install the program or update my software. I've done both, donwloaded the upgrade (Logic pro 9.1.7) and the install helper keeps telling I can't updrade my software like that. I need to chek for actualization through my computer. But the computer actualization finder "thingy" won't find more softaware to update.

Checked internet connection numerous times with other devices as well as with the provder and there is nothing wrong with the connection.

    Any Help?

    ... doublechecking to see if I'm reading your tags right, Sexy ... are you getting an error 2 when you go to launch iTunes after the install?
    If so, is it saying that Apple Application Support cannot be found?
    What Windows OS are you using? XP, Vista or 7?

    Hi Kurt,
    The Mac IIci is not even powering on at all. Tried again with wih a tested power cable and no luck. 
    I think it's best that take  this issue to the Older Hardware Community. Not only did I see a fair number of replacement parts for the IIci avaiable online, but there also vintage external floppy drives as well. I'm not giving up.
    Thank you for your time and interest in helping.
