Logic Pro X Additional Content .....still installing

Hi,
I recently purchased and downloaded the new Logic Pro X then downloaded the additional content. This took about 36 hours as my Internet Connection is only 1-2 Mb. The dialog box then changed to. Installing Additional Content....and has remained like that for the last 24 hours. The blue status indicator took about 1 hour to show complete but there has been no change in the status since then. I can't quit Logic as the Quit is greyed out
Anyone else had this issue and any ideas what I should do please?

similar problem that I'm hoping revives this thread. Took over 24hrs to dload additional content (after another full day for the actual problem) due to a bad dload rate. so quitted, and relocated closer to my wifi router. Restart, open logic x, Menu bar: Logic Pro/ Download Additional content ...Tells me i have no internet connection.... Ahh... I do, I'm using it right now! Tried restarting and relaunching. same thing every time.
Any clues?
This whole apple upgrade has been so disappointing! All i wanted to do was reinstall logic 9! $2500 later and I'm still struggling. ***!

How to Delete Logic Pro X Additional Content

Is there Anyone out there who knows how to delete the additional content on Logic pro X once it has been installed.
These are the following things I have tried:
I have tried uninstalling Logic pro X - No result - The space the additional content took up is still taken up. (by what I don't know)
I have read every possible article on the matter - Still No Result -
I have tried using AppCleaner to delete Logic Pro X - No Result - Logic pro X is deleted but the additional content still remains.
I even went as far as using my time machine to back up the information on my laptop - to see if it would back up the 50GB worth of date - Guess what - It did back it up. but its no where to be found on my HD.
The additional content takes up 50GB+ worth of space and for some reason won't GO AWAY!!!
SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!!

I have read every possible article on the matter - Still No Result -
A simple google search for " Where is Logic Pro's additional content stored " brought up the info almost instantly.....
The content is stored in multiple locations...
Where is Logic pro additional content stored?
Thanks to CCT & viento10 for the info......

Logic Pro x - additional content downloads and installs but it won't show up in my Logic Pro X. Where is the add'l content downloaded and how do I activate on Logic Pro X?

The additional content downloads and installs, but it won't show up in my Logic Pro X. I cannot find the "Library" folder where this additional content is downloaded to and can't seem to activate the new loops and instruments in my Logic Pro X (i.e. loops are still greyed out). Any solutions?

Logic Pro X additional content will download but won't install

Hi,
I have Logic Pro X (10.0.1) installed on my 2012 Macbook Pro i7 2.6Ghz 8Gb Ram. I am able download the addition content but now just hangs & it has only installed the producer patches, surrond reverbs, garage band 11 sounds & instruments & the jam packs which I believe were there from my Logic Pro 9.
I have read support forum threads where peiople have downloaded it in smaller sections 1 or 2GB at a time with success, I have tried this & in smaller sections with no success.....it just still hangs saying "installing Orchestra" or whatever section I'm trying to install.
Can anyone help?
I went through **** to install the program itself as the initial installion just hung too on the "Essential Sounds and Instruments for Logic Pro & Mainstage", I finally installed after getting the content download link from a support thread.
Apple support is s***, I emailed about them about the download (after spending my £139.99) only to wait 24 hours for them to say delete it & try again (like we wouldn't have though of & done that already). After repling to say that & waiting another 24 hours they said here is an email address to our Tech support or a premium number to call WFT!!!!
Now the additional content won't install, between my Macbook Pro & Logic Pro X the money I've spent - Apple are taking the ****.
Please can some one help?
Thanks

Install on my Core2Duo 17" MacBook Pro went flawlessly, but install on my 8 Core Mac Pro suffered this problem. Many thanks for the solution Don, it worked for me ;-)
I am trying hard to supress an ironic chuckle though, reading other posts in this thread .... suggesting that people should call Apple Tech Support and expressing incredulity that people weren't doing this as their first option.
Well I can say say that after several calls to Apple Tech Support, amounting to several hours on the phone, and well over an hour on the phone with them today, I was informed that this problem is a known bug, and that Apple are working on a solution. They couldn't tell me what the bug is, what machines are affected, or what else might trigger it, or when a bug release might be due.
Their troubleshooting steps basically involved various reboots, repairing disc permissions, reseting the user home directory via terminal, booting up in recovery mode (but not safe mode as per this solution) trashing various preferences files, and, as a final step, uninstalling and reinstalling from scratch.
Only when all that failed was I told that there is a known bug that Apple are working on.
I came here to see what the community was saying, as the Tech Support guy did say there was likely to be some info on the forums. Lo and behold, a solution is posted and it works.
Why are Apple's Tech Support (in the UK at least) not aware of this?
Oh well, at least I'm up and running on my Mac Pro now.
Thanks again Don,
Cheers,
Nigel

Logic pro 9 additional content won't install and iMac 27" late 2012 won't start in Safe Mode

Hi,
I have bought Logic Pro 9 and have encountered problems installing the Additional Content pack. I am using late 2012 iMac 27" (with fusion 3TB drive) and OS X Mavericks (10.9.1).
For some reason the Additional Content pack does not install when downloaded from Logic Pro menu and it does not install either when using the .dmg file. I noticed that many users are facing the same problem, but they have resolved the issue installing the Additional Content in Safe Mode. However, my iMac does not boot in Safe Mode (other users are encountering this annoying problem and it remains unresolved by Apple, see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5485131?start=0&tstart=0).
This is extremely frustating, because I am using my iMac for my work and therefore it is impossible to backup my data reinstall the OS X. Additionally, I am using the computer for my music projects and I am completely stuck, because I cannot use insrument patches that I need.
Does anyone have solution for this?

How to install Logic Pro X additional content to an external Hard Drive?

Hi all,
I have tried and failed to install additional Logic Pro X data to my second hard drive. The SSD that OS X runs through is almost full and I don't have enough space for the files to stay there.
I have tried to use the 'Symbolic Link' solution, but to no avail as it continues to install the software on my SSD! I can tell, because after installing the files I lose a big chunk of storage on the SSD.
Please help! Is there an alternate solution, am I doing it wrong?

Ah! Well, that would explain things
Glad to hear you got it all working...
Cheers..

Do I need to download the additional content of Logic Pro X every time I install it on each of my computers?

Do I need to download the additional content of Logic Pro X every time I install it on each of my computers?

A poster in the following thread gives a direct download link to the installer package:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/22495063#22495063
...if that works and Logic Pro X recognises that it's been installed at startup, then clearly you can just download it the one time and manually install it on each computer. Unfortunately the App Store doesn't appear to provide a way to export and subsequently authorise installation archives for downloaded applications, though, so you'll still have to download the 600-odd-MB core of Logic via the App Store on each machine.

HT3989 Trouble installing logic pro & MainStage essential content

I have downloaded Logic Pro 9 last night and everything will load (install) except Logic Pro & Mainstage Essential Content. What should I do?

Hi
Have you tried downloading it again?

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 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.

Is there a version of Logic Pro X that can be installed on a Mac Book Pro with OS X Version 10.7.5 ?

Is there a version of Logic Pro X that can be installed on a Mac Book Pro with OS X Version 10.7.5 ?

No.. Logic Pro X requires 10.8.4 or later....
To Purchase and install Mountain Lion these days.. you must buy a download content code from Apple directly... It is no longer available directly via the Mac App Store as an item you can select and buy...
If you are in the US then this link will help you...

How can i know my logic pro 9 is for 3 install's?

how can i know my logic pro 9 is for 3 install's?

Logic Pro 9 (the DVD version) can be installed on a notebook and a desktop (2). The Mac App Store products can be installed on all Macs that you own. If you need a volume license (e.g. for a school) you should contact Apple.

Logic Pro X can't be installed on "Macintosh HD" because Mac OS X version 10.8.4 or later is required.

Hello,
I want to buy logic pro x and i recieve this message: Logic Pro X can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because Mac OS X version 10.8.4 or later is required. what i need to do? thanks!!

Given you apparently are looking for a different answer to the completely obvious one....
You can;
1) Undress.. stand on one leg, wear a very silly hat... whistle "Dixie" and pray to the Gods of Apple that they will somehow magically install LPX for you...
2) Spend your days in the studio wondering what "Mac OS X version 10.8.4 or later is required" actually means... and make up a song in your head baed on the resulting thoughts... Of course, you won't be able to actually record it but maybe thats not such a bad thing for the rest of the world..
3) You could run out to the nearest Apple Store.. spend a small fortune on a new Mac that has "Mac OS X version 10.8.4 or later" already installed and use that to install LPX on.. even though your current Mac may be perfectly capable of running LPX.. if only you actually followed the advice given by Blueberry... and did what the error meassage you orginally received, told you to do...
4) You could simply give up on music entirely.... and spend the rsst of your life.. meditating quietly in a corner.... waiting on the world to do everything for you....
Seriously though...............
There comes a point when it's really hard to take such a question seriously when the answer is there, right in front of you...plain as day...
A) Upgrade your OS X version and then install LPX
or...
B) Do not upgrade your OS X version and do not install LPX.. Do not pass Go.. Do not collect/spend $200......
Pretty simple really!
