Reinstalling Logic pro onto new machine

I have Logic pro originally with XS key now I want to install it on a new machine but dont have the original disc lost in a house move. Have the serial number and the key but using Migration assistant transfers but wont open also tried copying the application directly from and to the respective app's folders, same cant message... What can I do?

I was just going to write about this as well! I have moved reacently and have a new mbp. I want to move my logic 9 studio to my mbp instead of my imac. I have all my keys/Serial #'s just can't find my disks for 9. Now I found my Logic 8 disks but can't install that b/c it does not work with Lion. Is there anyway to just transfer it from my imac?

Trying to reinstall logic pro and serial number is coming up invalid

I had to reformat my hard drive and I'm trying to reinstall logic pro 9 but the serial munger is coming up as invalid.

If you bought the upgrade DVD version of Logic Studio 2.0 originally.. (LP8 to LP9) then read the dialog boxes carefully as it will ask you to enter the LP8 Full serial as well as the LP9 upgrade serial....
Otherwise, if you are sure you are entering the Full version serial of LP9 correctly.... (Its easy to mistake zeros for O's for example)

If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

How to uninstall Logic Pro 8 and Reinstall Logic Pro 7.2?

For numerous reasons I'd like to uninstall Logic Pro 8 and return to Logic Pro 7, the reasons for which I'd rather not discuss, as I'd like to focus on the reinstallation task.
Apple states that Logic Pro 7 still functions, but this is not entirely correct. Since many instruments were replaced, the complex 50-track songs that I painstakingly mixed on pure LP7 (prior to the upgrade) now sound completely different in LP7 post-LP8 install (as well as LP8 as you can imagine). It seems that the levels are actually different on some of the EXS and other instruments. Yes, Apple says they are richer and better, but I really don't care. I am in the middle of a CD and need to return to the state I was in prior to the upgrade.
Ultimately I'd like to reinstall Logic Pro 7 and/or its content in order to get all of my original instruments back.
Does anyone have a procedure for this? Should I uninstall Logic Pro 8 and then perform a complete reinstall of Logic Pro 7 following Apple's procedure? Or should I simply use Pacifist to replace the content files that were replaced? Will any of my preferences (plug-in settings) be lost during a reinstall? Should the rest of Logic Studio be uninstalled as well?
Thanks so much in advance.
P.S. I'm just looking for a procedure and do not wish to discuss the reasons, which you'll find all over the forums.

Thank you.
Regarding copying the settings, these should all be in my personal user folder, correct? My plugin settings should all reside here as I understand. Would ANY customized settings reside anywhere OTHER than my user folder? *Yes, everything should live here, but it never hurts to snoop around the other folders just in case.*
I had modified some EXS instrument settings, but did not import new ones.
Where would the personal EXS settings exist - in my user folders or elsewhere? *All exs are stored Library / Application Support / Logic or GarageBand. The audio files for instrument should be stored there as well. You will need to copy and save both the instrument file and the associated audio files*.
If I simply modified an EXS instrument within a song, my understanding is that would be a property of the song itself, correct? *Yes, if you did not save the exs instrument as new instrument, it settings are stored with the song.*
Also,
Which folders am I deleting when I "delete both versions of Logic"? *You can delete ANY and all folders associated with them. Delete them out of the Apps folder, utilities, and Application support*.
And how would I delete the new Logic 8 content - where does it reside? *The Library. Not in front of my mac so sorry I can't be more specific.*
I just spoke to Apple and they recommended an "Erase and Restore" of the entire system, and a reinstall of Logic 7 in order to get me back to where I was - do you agree? *Yes, that is the preferred method but only if you are willing or in a position to start from scratch i.e re-installing all 3rd party apps, hardware drivers ect. Remember to back up all your important files.*
Thanks!

I own Logic Pro 7( I used to have a PowerPC and need to upgrade to Logic Pro 9 (new Intel chip, system 10.8) . Do I need to buy a whole new set or do I upgrade for less cost?

The cost of the Full Logic Pro 9 from the App Store is less than the cost of the discontinued Boxed Upgrade set for Logic Studio (if you could find one) ... so you might as well purchase the full Logic Pro 9 from the App store and be done.

Yea I am. I deleted Logic Pro 9 and moved the App to the Trashcan like normal. Then when I go to install it, it says its already Installed. When I do this with other apps; it works fine, the install thing comes back up like it should once you have deleted the app

Logic 9.0.2 is the last version that runs on a G5 - 9.1.x is Intel only.
If you have only 50 GB left on your system drive, you should consider it full. Get an external drive and move your music, movies and photo's to it, and delete them from your system drive to free up space.
The free space on the system drive is being used by the OS to offload RAM, rule of thumb is to keep at least 20 % of the drives' capacity free. When you have less and less free space, your Mac will eventually become very slow (many "beachballs").
I believe the current Logic Package has version 9.1 on it, be sure you have the correct (9.0) version...

Plug-ins unavailable after reinstalling Logic Pro 7.2 upgrade

I have been running Logic Pro 7.2 which was purchased as an upgrade from Logic Gold with an Emagic XS key. Everything had been running fine until recently when I had to reformat my startup partition and reinstall everything.
Reinstalling Logic Gold seemed to be straight forward. It booted up as normal with all Logic and third party plug-ins appearing in their drop down folders when selecting a plug in.
I then proceeded to reinstall Logic Pro 7.2 upgrade only to find that all of Logic's AU plug-ins and third party plug-ins were no longer available to me within Logic Pro 7.2...?
I'm absolutely puzzled by this. Can any anyone help me?

Hey Sparco.
I was wondering the same thing, as I've recently done this as well (bought LP after owning LE, that is). I was always wondering whether or not I needed it there, or even GB for that matter. I almost deleted LE/GB, until I realized that the programs themselves aren't taking up that much space. What takes up the most space are the sample libraries, apple loops (at least the non-midi ones), and perhaps some of the plugins. As far as I can tell, Logic Pro will install as a separate app, but it will share all of the file resources with LE and GB, and just add extra stuff on top (like the ES2, Scultpure, etc etc). I don't think you'd be saving all that much space getting rid of LE.
Besides, having LE around means that you don't ALWAYS need the xskey. Perfect for anyone running a laptop.

How to reinstall logic pro 9 on a new drive

I have logic allready but I have change my drive how to reinstall it to my new computer

This would be a question probably best asked in the Logic forum rather than here in the iTunes forum. Choose the forum for your version of Logic, as appropriate, from the list you will find here:

Hi. I've changed my hard drive on my macbook pro and wanted to reinstall logic pro but although I took the serial number from the "about" box it rejects it when I try to reinstall. It was an upgrade to Logic 8 originally. What can I do? Urgent!

Hello. I have installed a new hard drive on my Macbook Pro with OSX Tiger. I tried to reinstall Logic 8 Pro but it refuses the serial number when I try to install it. I took the serial number from the "About" box when Logic was still installed but no good. The software was originally an upgrade, and I don't think I have the disks for the previous version. What do I do? This is important because I only use the computer for music. Thank you.

There's actually an even simpler solution that doesn't include buying a new version of Logic. He can use his original version easily. Of course, that depends if the OP knows how to effectively use his computer though...

New Mac Book Pro & Logic Pro vs New 8 Core Mac

I think this question may have been answered. a question, but here goes anyway. I am using a new Macbook Pro duel core and running Logic Pro on it. I get "system overload" every time I start playback on multiple tracks. Then if I restart the playback it runs pretty well. My question is, if I was using the new 8 core big Mac would I be running smooth with no hiccups or overload conditions? Even though my Macbook Pro is new, is it the wrong machine for running Logic Pro? I have 2GB of Ram. I also run Pro Tools LE 7.4 with a 002 Digi Surface Controller with no problems.
Advice please?

The "system overload" warnings have plagued all systems, regardless of how many cores are present: PowerPC:s, Intels, Tigers and Leopards..

Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 clapping and crackling issues with Logic Pro x new iMac 27"

Hi, I have just purchased a brand new iMac and downloaded Logic Pro x, I also purchased the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 interface. I have downloaded the drivers from the focusrite website and everything is set up, when I plug in guitar or mic I get really bad clapping and crackling to the point where the sound cuts out altogether. I have changed buffer size and sample rates and everything else I can think of but nothing seems to fix the problem. I also deleted the 2i2 drivers and logic and reinstalled them both but still have the same issue, when I record using the iMac built in mic everything is fine so it's deffinately something to do with the interface. I am waiting to hear back from Focusrite tech help. Does anyone else have this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm having a similar issue which might indicate that the problem is not your interface.
Yesterday I migrated all my stuff from my 2009 iMac to a brand new iMac 27", and when I did a quick test to play back some old projects in Logic there was loads of annoying clicks and pops. My interface is a Roland Octa-Capture.
I also noticed some weird CPU spikes from time to time, which I never had on my older, much less powerful iMac...
