Logic Studio install - Sound Effects option disabled

When I go to install Logic Studio, in the list of things to install the selections "Sound Effects" and "Music Beds" are greyed out and uncheckable. If I install everything I can select, it skips the discs Audio Content 1 and 2. Is there a way to get at least the Sound Effects option enabled?
(This is for Logic Studio upgrade w/ Logic Pro 9, upgrading from Logic Express 8)

So I understand correctly that you are not involved in creating music in any way? Then Logic is NOT what you are looking for. It is mainly aimed at either recording and/or composing original music, and not as a ready to select library sort of thing.
Unfortunately, I can't tell you what you should get, but maybe one of the pro guys can help you out. You'll probably find some users here who actually make the sort of content you want to use.
Logic Pro is the main program in the Logic Studio set.

Logic Studio Install Disks - Which Hard Drive Do I Install Them In?

Hello, im getting logic pro in a few weeks and maybe an external hard drive. and was wondering out of all the applications etc and disks that come with it, which drive i should install each one on. i know that the logic sequencer should go on my internal mac drive. but what about the rest? im guessing that the samples go on my external. but what about main stage, studio effects, wave-burner? here are the full list of items if you care to help. thanks.
DVD containing Logic Pro 8, MainStage, Soundtrack Pro 2, Studio Instruments, Studio Effects, WaveBurner 1.5, Compressor 3, Impulse Response Utility, Apple Loops Utility, QuickTime 7 Pro, and required content
Six content DVDs containing Jam Pack collections, sound effects, surround music beds, EXS24 samples, and impulse response files
also i was wondering if other mac users use any sort of virus protection? i want to keep this mac as clean and free as possible. would virus protection help me or slow me down. i dont go on dodgy websites or download any thing im not sure about or file share ( limewire etc).

Don't sweat it.
It will become fairly clear when you first run the install disks - there are options during the install that will give you the choice of location.
Typically, in many cases you have no choice. The applications themselves have to go on the system disk. You can put samples, loops etc. on another drive, but without knowing what you plan on doing with Logic, or if you plan to include 3rd. party sample libraries, loops and hardware, it's hard to advise. You can always change your mind later.
If you're planning on a lot of audio recording, you'll want to save your project files to your external disk, as this helps with performance. In a perfect world, samples would go on one disk, Logic projects on another, but this might be overkill for your needs. Also, to some extent, your choice of interface will have a bearing - some are happy to share a firewire bus, some aren't. As you have a MBP you have the additional slot for expansion, but it's still something to think about.
As far as viruses go, you're pretty safe particularly as you don't surf around downloading iffy files. There are a couple of Mac malware items out there, and they're likely to increase as Mac's market share increases, but I haven't run any protection software in years with no ill effects, but I'm behind a firewall and like you, I don't download anything on to my machines without knowing the source.

Than i erased what ever i could which was left from the failed installation .
And now i am trying to reinstall, but this time Installation is not asking me Audio Content 1, 2 and 3
And also after Jam Pack 1, instead of continuing to 2 and 3, is asking to put install disk , and after that point installation getting failed again .

But what ever i tried, gives no solution . At the end a fail .
How can i wipe out all the Logic existence from my computer to make new install ?
Or, what is this problem i am having? As installation is not asking some discs which is necessary for the setup anymore .
Did anyone experienced that ?
I will be very happy if someone can assist on me this . Since 5 hours i am trying to setup this thing .
Thanks a lot

it is very frustrating to see such an installation problem happening from a "professional" called DAW .
I am actually a Protools user , and i have never had this type of complications .
I mean come on, i am just trying to install the thing .
On a new system, on a new computer and from an original purchase .
I believe i have enough computer knowledge to instal a simple software .
But i am spending almost 10 hours since yesterday to install Logic .
Instead of making designer boxes or giving fancy advertisements, i am inviting Apple Engineers to create proper working software .
Especially to see a professional audio software like Logic in this epic fall, is very very bad .
I mean you can say i am problematic and don't know how to instal a simple software, but than please write to google, Logic installation problems , and you will see thousands of issues .
Whatever i am writing here not against to the people who are replying and want to help , i just want Apple to read this .
Ah , i am sure Apple won't put attention on it , but doesn't matter .
You just lost 1 customer for Logic
I am erasing this thing now from my computer and continue with Protools as the way i was doing .
Sorry if i am bitter, but this is not acceptable .

Logic Studio Install Problems

Purchased Logic Studio a couple weeks ago. The first set I recieved would not install correctly and it errored out several times regardless of how I went about installing it. Contacted Apple Support and they indicated I may have a bad set of disks so I returned my set and recieved a new set yesterday. Install problems continue but now different. Orginal set woudl load a coiuple of disks then error out. This set will laod the install disk then when asked to insert the Audio Content 1 disk the computer will spin th edisk around a few times the spit it out. Tried several times and even tried inserting other content disks. I've read some of the conent here and some mention a possibel bad DVD Drive but I do no think my DVD Drive is the problem since after trying the Logic Studio set I successfully installed FrameForge.
When I attempted to install the first set of disks last week I was able to select all the options, SoundTrack Pro, Mainstage, etc. On this set my SoundTrack Pro option is grayed out and I cannot select it to load. I read here last week, when the first set would not load, to remove everything associated with Logic Studio and try again, which I did. Is it possible there are remneants remaining somewhere on my system that is disallowing the SoundTrack install this time?
My system config is:
Processor: 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048MB
Software: Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
1TB Internal SATA Disk (This is the drive I am attempting to load on)
256GB Flash Storage
12TB (RAID 5 Configure to 6TB) Pegasus External
This evening I will call Apple Support again, but any advice from the audience is much appreciated.

Where is "Sound Effects" option in Iphone?

"Note: On the first-generation iPod touch, choose General > Sounds and select whether you want sound effects to play over the internal speaker, through the headphones, or both."

Logic Studios install fail - external harddrive

Hey! i have bought my self a Logic Studio 9 at my local Apple store, and is currently trying to install the program on my Mac Book Pro (10.5.8). Since i create, store and use a lot of movies my harddisk is full and i have bought an external hard drive (iomega prestige desktop hard drive 1Tb). Since i don't have the required space available on my harddisk, i tried to install logic studios on my external harddrive.
The problem occurred after i had completed the formation the external hard-drive demanded. When i try to install the applications on my external harddrive it, however, says: "You can not install Logic Studio on this volume. This software must be installed on the running system". My questions are therefore:
Does anyone know how to solve my problem? Do i have to delete over 20 gb of stuff from my harddrive to be able to install the applications?
Help will be highly appreciated, since i have spent 450 $ on these programs.

Excellent, i now have the applications installed! thanks a lot, one question remains though.. i still can't install the additional content, when i try to use the logic studios installer to only install the content it still says ""You can not install Logic Studio on this volume. This software must be installed on the running system" so it forces me to install it on my harddrive. Any suggestions how to solve this problem?

HELP - Logic Studio died on install..

Got within last 2 dvds - just finished installing "Jam Pack Content 2" - when the install program asked to see "the LOGIC" disk. Time until total install was still 6 hrs out according to installer. Suspecting it flubbed and desired what the next two disks, I inserted the "Jam Pack Content 3" dvd and after spinning up, was not acknowledged by the installer. I then inserted the first dvd - "Logic Studio Install" and after spinning up, stopped the installation giving the error: "Install Failed. The source media you are installing from is damaged. Try installing from a different copy of the source media or contact the manufacturer for a replacement". Having written installers in the past, I dont believe it's really flawed. The last dvd was "Demo Content" - never installed. Any clues where to go from here? the install was over 30 hours initially - do I have to do this again only to have it fail again? Is there any way to determine what "was" installed then perform a custom install for items missing?
Seeking advice.
Thanks..

Still, if you are getting a kernel panic, something is wrong. Kernel panics indicate a problem on the OS or hardware level. It's totally different than if the installer simply crashes and leaves a crash report.
As far as the amount remaining, I wouldn't worry about the installer's estimate. But, I'd definitely worry about the kernel panic.

How to uninstall logic studio

hellow...
I have installed the logic studio install disk 1 and disided i dont need it.
I erazed the apps but stuck with 7 gb contant of this disk and i have no idea how to get rid of it whitout erazing an importent system files...
I sarched the net and found a very complicated ways of deleting and whitout geranty it w'ont ****** up my other apps.
Does anyone have an idea what to do???
And how it can be, that a super company like apple didnt thougt to put an uninstaller in her on software?!?!
This is one of the things that puts her os behind (i still love it).
I'm an engeniring software student and one of the most importent things we learned is to clean our on garbge.
thanks...
**Sorry for my bad english i'm from Israel (and apple d'ont realy care of a little contry like mine to open a sopport in hebrew).

You need to delete the application, delete the Application Support/Logic folder, delete the installed jam pack loops and instrument content (which get installed to your GB libary AppSupport/Garageband), then you also need to check the AppSupport/Audio folders for things like impulses and preset settings.
Check both system and user app support trees - by default, Logic will install preset content into the system areas.
This will get rid of the core stuff - if you really want a full list, you need to go into your package receipts, as there are a lot of other support frameworks and packages that also get installed by default (Applications like Soundtrack Pro, Mainstage, support apps like the loop utility, Compressor, and all kinds of video frameworks, Quicktime and other stuff).
There isn't a quick "uninstall" option.
So I really don't recommend a "clean" uninstall at all, just remove the content.
What version of Windows do you recommend, if you want to use Windows
apps on your mac ? (XP ? Vista ?)
Why are you asking me? I can't stand Windows, and have no idea of what windows applications you want to run.

I am trying to reinstall Logic Studio 7 and I cannot find the serial number. It's suppose to be in one of the installation booklets. I'm not sure which one. Could you help me?

I am trying to reinstall Logic Studio that i bought back in 2008, and I cannot find the serial number. I think I barely remember running into this problem before with this application. When i use the installation disc it tells me that the serial number is located in one of the installation booklets, and it doesn't explain to me which one. Can you help me?
Thank You!

How to use custom sound effects

One of the few good things one could do in Windows was to assign any sound effect you wanted to use to just about any operating system or other event. For example, you could have Captain Pecard say "Minimize" whenever you minimized a window.
OS X (10.7 Lion in my case) doesn't make this as easy. If you want to add your own sound effects to the pre-installed sound effects you get when you open System Preferences → Sound → Sound Effects, you must manually add them to the correct folder after first converting them into .aiff format.
I've done all this successfully, but I don't know the last step, namely, how to assign the new sound to a 'Custom' event. I see my new sound files in the right place (System Preferences → Sound → Sound Effects), but it just says 'Custom' for the alert sount type.
Help would be appreciated.
Ted

So? Just select the name. BTW, all that does is select which one you want to use for ALERTs, nothing else. For anything else, such as those contained in
/System/Library/Components/CoreAudio.component/Contents/Resources/SystemSounds/f inder/ you need to rename the new sound as the original and put them into that same location.

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.

Why won't Logic Studio 8 accept my Serial Number?

Hi There,
I recently purchased a new 13" macbook pro, I tried to install Logic Sudio 8 last night, but it kept telling me the serial number wasn't valid.
It's definitely the correct serial number. Why does Logic do this and how can I get it fixed?
I had Logic STudio installed on the power mac and an old macbook pro. I've since uninstalled it from the old macbook pro in order to install it on my new one.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Best wishes,
Paul.

Check the spelling: a "Zero" is not an "Oh", and I is not a One, etc.
You might also google you serial number. Somebody might have stolen it and posted it on the internet, which Apple then blocked.

Use Logic Studio to upgrade to LE 8

I'm sure this answer is in the manuals, but since I don't have them with me, I'm posting it here: is it possible to use the Logic Studio install set to upgrade a LE7 installation to LE8, or does that require a completely different path?
TIA

No, Logic Pro (with Logic Studio) is a different application to Logic Express.
Serial number differences aside, Logic Pro cannot install Logic Express for you.
You can update your LE7 to LE8, or you can update your LE7 to Logic Studio.
You can't update to Logic Studio and also get a free copy of LE8... ( ! )

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.
