Logic won't OPEN (Same with FCP)

I thought something like this would help.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302641
Updated to new software, being new, I might of trashed something I should not have.
It opens for a second, then the icon dissapears.
WOW. I am a bit stunned.
Any ideas? Know I can't be the first, nor the last.
Thanks.

If you recently installed Pro App 4, then that is the
problem. Check this out:

Actually, I stand corrected, this STANDARD PRO APPLICATION INSTALLER fixed it all. Why is that? Is this some sort of magic genie? Not understanding what it is doing?
Please explain so I can mark this as ANWSERED and give you a STAR! (smile).

  • I got the app pokemon yellow and it won't open same with tons of people too

    The app pokemon yellow dose not work and they won't fix it

    Apple didn't make the app. It's not up to them to fix it.
    You will likely get your money back if you report the problem using the link you'll get in your receipt, but for future purchases read the reviews and the app details, such a developer's name and, if possible, check their website. If it looks fishy then DON'T BUY IT. If you know a product is owned by Nintendo, Sega or Capcom, for example and it's been sold by a Developer who has nothing to do with the company then DO. NOT. BUY.

  • Now Logic won't open. What should I do?

    I had two versions of Logic Pro on my laptop (Logic Pro 8 and Logic Pro), so I deleted the older version. Now Logic won't open. What should I do? I also upgraded to Mavericks lastnight, but it worked fine until just now.

    Restore what you deleted from your backups? Use Time Machine to go back to a time prior to the problem occuring? (You do make backups yes? If not, now you know why you should start doing so!)
    Failing that,
    Launch Logic Pro and then as soon as you have cliced on the icon, hold down the option key and keep holding it down until eitehr you see a dialog box or Lagic completes loading...
    This stops Logic loading the last project or template you used... in case the project or template has become corrupted in some way...
    If that doesn't work.. do the same again but this time hold down the Control Key....
    This makes logic start without loading Audio so you can then go in and select the internal Audio  in Logics Audo preferences in casse its a problem with some drivers or Core Audio itself...

  • Logic won't open after i installed it

    Hey there,
                   after i installed logic pro 9 on snow lepoard, it won't open along with all my other applications that were fine before i installed logic. It gives me a problem report that i don't really understand. i need help!!!

    Yes.. you cannot easily downgrade from one OS X to another without starting again from fresh..... otherwise you can easily get the sort of issues you are having.
    Solution.... (The short version)
    Make sure you have first got backups of all your personal data, projects, photos, music etc..... 
    Double check youn have saved all your personal data out.
    Ensure you have your Snow Leopard Installation disk(s) to hand..
    Boot to your SL installation disk..
    Reformat your hard drive using the Disk Utility found in the SL Install menu bar..
    Re-install Snow Leopard.
    Install Logic Pro 9, update to latest version and test.....
    If Logic will not launch then install that Prokit I gave you the link for...   and test again. Do not install it if Logic works ok..
    Install any drivers for audio/midi hardware if needed and ensure correct versions are installed for OS X version.
    Install all 3rd party plugins and apps..
    Manually transfer all personal data and projects etc... back to your newly setup Mac...
    Test again....
    Long version....

    Important Note: Do not use Migration Assistant but manually back up and restore all personal data etc....

  • Boris 3D text editing window won't open without deleting FCP preferences

    So, in my FCP7 projects, the Boris 3D text editing window won't open without deleting FCP preferences first. I've tried new projects, old projects, open all new windows on top settings. Once I delete the preferences, viola, opens right up. I can rebuild my preferences and after just a few days it won't open again... without preference delete.
    I'm on a Macbook Pro 17'" i7 and do most of my editing on a 27" Apple Cinema Display. This is the only reason I could come up with. However I did some editing from the Macbook's screen and after 1 day, the Boris 3D editing window again refused to open. I have no idea. Is this is a known bug, etc.?
    Help!

    With Final Cut not running, trash the Boris Title 3D preference file.
    /Library/Preferences/Title 3D Preferences
    Also, you could have a corrupt or duplicate font file. Open FontBook and check it out.

    It is possible the versions you have are not compatible with your new Mac. Could you please tell us the following:
    1. What OS are you running.
    To get this info, click on the Apple on the top left, then select About This Mac. The OS X version is there.
    2. What are the versions of the apps that are giving you problems?
    To get this info, double click on the hard drive icon and open the Applications folder. Select an application and right click on it. Then select Get Info. The version number is there.
    Version number:
    Not sure I understand your reference to Flip Player - this is not related to the "won't open" problem, is it?

  • Itunes won't open - problem with visualizer?

    For some reason Itunes won't open for me - I have had it for ages, never a problem, but I got Leopard last week and now Itunes has crashed. When i try to open it it freezes and then closes, with an error message that says 'the problem may have been caused by the ItunesX Visualizer plug in'.
    Any advice on how to fix this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled both itunes and Quicktime, but nothing seems to work.

    Same problem here! I'm going crazy. I did those two things you did and NOTHING, nada, help us!

  • Dreamweaver won't open same file in two different folders.  Fix or switch to Aptana?

    Same file copied between 2 folders. DW will open one but not the other.  Copied code from 'good' file to new file; saved in 'bad' folder.  DW opened the file once then the spinning wheel of death again.  All files open in Aptana, Coda, Sublime no problem.  'Bad' file was coded and FTP's previously without problem.  Was annoyance previously but not the problem is becoming acute.  'Bad' file opens on Windows7 with DW8; won't open on MAC CS6.  Tried every fix posted; still POS.

    BTW - this has been a problem for years (plural).  I just had accepted that DW did this sometimes.  I write a lot of PHP so DW is not my primary software.  Couple of days ago, I was doing a customer presentation and it did it again.  MY mistake was I copies the development folder to a new folder and upload/took the approved site live.  Literally, I could navigate back to the old folder and open index.php but it would not open in the new folder.  Copied the old contents to the new folder/file, saved it, opened it and it worked fine.  This whole time I am tap dancing in front of a room full of people.  Go back to reopen the file and no go.  As my face slowly turns bright red, I navigate back to my development folder to open index.php.  Surprise, now it won't open either.  Luckily for me, I had a copy of Coda2 on my laptop, switched over and sold the job.  I mainly use DW for customers where I can split screens - use an 80" presentation screen - for convenience.  Was thinking about upgrading from CS6 but 4 and 5 had the same problems which was why I went to 6.

  • Getting strange messages and Logic won't open PLEASE HELP!

    I haven't opened Logic for a few weeks because I have been out of town.
    I just tried to open a project and got the message "logic pro has detected a possible conflict between one or more third party midi or audio drivers" and an empty project pops up with lines through all the plug-ins, etc...
    When I try to simply just open Logic (NOT a project) Logic simply does not open and just sits there. (The little Logic opening window stalls on the "Searching for Audio Unit Plug-ins (Apple:AUbandpass)...)
    What could be causing this?
    The only thing I have done recently on my computer that is a little out of the ordinary is drag the "Preferences" folder (User/Library/Preferences) to my desktop to try and fix another issue I was having on my computer, BUT I QUICKLY UNDID this action (with the undo function) before continuing. Could this have anything to do with my current problem? I have project I NEED to open now and I can't figure this out. PLEASE HELP!
    Message was edited by: Jack Q

    UPDATE:
    I was able to get Logic to finally open (sort of), BUT:
    When I go to the Audio Units Manager it shows ALL the audio units as crashed, or "crashed validation" under the compatibility heading.
    All the boxes are unchecked on the left. When I try to check any of them, it says in the grey window that pops up, for example:
    "validating Audio Unit AUAudioFilePlayer by Apple:
    validation result: crashed validation
    updating properties of AU AUAudioFilePlayer by Apple...done."
    THEN a window pops up stating: "The application Logic Pro has quit Unexpectedly" and this happens every time I try this.
    Also, every time I start Logic I get the same "The application Logic Pro has quit Unexpectedly" pop-up window, along with a Logic pop-up dialogue that reads: "You are using incompatible Audio Units. Dear Logic Pro user,
    you have 1 Audio Unit(s) enabled which did not pass the Apple AU validation. This may cause problems and can even crash Logic Pro or lead to data loss! Please check with the manufacturer(s) for updated versions. We recommend disabling these plug-ins in the AU Manager." with the buttons: Start AUmanager or Ignore.
    AND, even more odd, regardless of what button I choose Logic continues to open to the arrange window.
    Is there anything I can try next? I am going insane over this...

  • CS4 won't open TIFF with IBM PC Byte order

    When our team tries to open images saved as TIFFs with a Byte order for IBM PC with Photoshop CS4, we get an error message that we do not have enough RAM to open the image.
    We then opened the image on a machine running Photoshop CS2 with no problem, resaved the TIFF with a Macintosh Byte order and that seemed to fix the problem.
    Is this a glitch that Adobe is aware of and will it be fixed in any upcoming updates?

    I know of one bug like that, reading PackBits compressed images (the bug is very rare).
    But if you could send me a copy of the file that won't open, I'll take a look and see if it might be a problem we don't know about.

  • Logic won't open because it say's core midi driver is missing

    I've tried uninstalling it and re installing it to my computer and it still won't open.  The loading window that pops up after clicking on the logic studio icon says checking midi drivers and it will stay there for around 30 minutes then logic will open. I am unable to even close logic once that occurs because a consistant reminder pop up window keeps me from clicking on anything.

    Hey, I've solved this problem, though I can't say I know how - I think there was conflict between Logic and my Yamaha i88x, which would explain the hangage while setting up Core Audio. But, like I said, I don't know exactly what I did that solved this.... seems to be working though!
    Cheers,
    Joel

  • Logic won't Open

    I re-installed logic yesterday on my G5 dual 1.8 powermac.
    This was after formatting the HD etc for unrelated reasons.
    It was working fine for a whole mixing session until I Quit (command-Q) logic at the end of the night.
    This brought the whole system down with the 'You must hold in the power button' etc sign.
    I didn't stress too much as it was the end of the day, but now Logic won't load at all. icon expands briefly and thats it. Stops there as if it hadn't been pressed.
    Tried reinstalling (bass package only as I didn't want to spend onother 2.5 hours!!) but no joy.
    Wave Burner works fine as does Itunes.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    You had yourself a kernel panic. Read for more info: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1392
    You will need to address that issue aside from Logic.
    To get Logic running again try these steps: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2375

  • .jpg won't open properly with Powerbook

    I have a .jpg file that opens up and look brilliant on my iMac. But when I open it with my 15" PB or with my fathers 17" PB the color is wrong.
    It open up with a black background and grey fonts. The file is a logo for my business. the only thing i can think of is the Powerbooks are newer (less than a month old) with OS 10.4 and the iMac OS is 10.3.9.
    Any ideas would be great, I really need this logo.

    jk,
    I'm opening it from the desktop with Preview. I have been told that it will not open becuase it was done in CMYK and not RGB. But I don't know how to change it or if I can change it. Any ideas.

  • Iphoto won't open, conflict with OS after update.

    I am running an older version of iphoto. Version 8.1.2. I updated my OS recently to 10.8.2 and now iphoto won't open, I am getting a message that it is a software conflict. I know this is a problem people had awhile ago, but I am just updating things.  Can I just install a new version of iphoto??? Also, how can I view my pics on my MAC. I can't find where they are saved besides iphoto library, but I know they are there. Thanks

    I am getting a message that it is a software conflict.
    Can you give us the exact error message you get?
