Soundtrack Pro 2.0.2 Doesn't Open

STP won't launch at all. I installed everything from FCS2 once, then noticed STP doesn't open (all the other programs work). So, I trashed STP and the preferences and the logs and just reinstalled that from the DVD, then did the software update to STP 2.0.2. I didn't open STP from the time I uninstalled it until it finished updating.
All I still see is the white launch screen that says "Soundtrack Pro" (it doesn't even get to the GUI). The icon bounces in the dock for a while, then it'll just sit there, without the program running indicator. It says that it's not responding, and when I force quit it, it says it "quit while unresponsive."
Any suggestions?

I got an error message now:
An Unexpected Problem
NSInvalidArgumentException
* +[DebugController sharedInstance]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x7d8700.
It's only happened once; the next time I opened STP didn't show the message, it just hung again.

Soundtrack Pro crashed. Now can't open or create new audio files.

I was editing an audio file in Soundtrack Pro v1.1. I also had Flash, Parallels and a few other applications open. I plugged in my USB headset. Parallels crashed. Then Soundtrack Pro hung up. Then I had a complete system crash and needed to restart. After restarting I can no longer open Soundtrack Pro files or create new files. All other applications including Final Cut Pro seem to be working fine. I tried reinstalling Soundtrack Pro, but that didn't help. I don't get passed the Soundtrack Pro spash page. I can select menu items such as preferences, help, and even new. However, when I select create new file nothing happens. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I deleted the preferences file (soundtrack.plist), then restarted the application. That didn't work.

HT1495 Win XP Pro - Shift / Start iTunes doesn't open with multiple libraries options

hi RMGal!
-I tried making sure all 3 other users were logged out - so I didn't use the "switch user" feature in XP - that didn't work.
it's possible that one of the itunes background processes (typically ipodservice.exe, but also sometimes ituneshelper.exe) is launching in the wrong user account, which is "faking" having another user logged in and using itunes.
let's try the technique from this hudgie post. if it doesn't work for iposervice, try again with ituneshelper:

Wondering if possible to open Logic sessions in Soundtrack Pro?

Hi there - operating Logic Studio - wondering if it is possible to open Logic sessions in Soundtrack Pro like it is possible t open garageband sessions in Logic?

No not possible but you can send an audio file/region from Logic to STP for editing and back again.
STP does not support MIDI. Logic projects could contain MIDI regions and software instrument channel strips. This would not work!
Export your track from the logic project to audio files and import them into STP as a multi-track project.

Problem sending timeline from Final Cut to a Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project

Hello,
Thank you in advance for reading. I am having trouble sending a timeline from Final Cut to a Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project. Final Cut makes a new Soundtrack Pro project file just fine and opens Soundtrack Pro as it's supposed to, but the project in Soundtrack Pro only has a portion of my audio tracks. I've tried sending by control clicking the sequence in the browser and selecting 'Send to Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project' as well as highlighting my entire timeline and doing the same. Both result in the same Soundtrack Pro proejct with about 1/3 of my total 48 audio tracks (lots of sound FX).
I'm using Final Cut 7.0.2 and Soundtrack Pro 3.0.1 My computer is a Macbook Pro running OS 10.6.8, 2.26 ghz intel core 2 duo, 4 gb ram.
Any suggestions (or workarounds, if it comes to that) anyone has will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again, Gabe

Try building the project to your desktop and then open the Video_TS in the Mac DVD player application.
How does it play/sound? This application is the best way to see and hear how your burned DVD should play vs. just using simulator and burning.
Just to clarify- are you taking your FC QT file into Compressor and creating a MPG-2 and AC3 file or are you bringing your FC QT directly into DSP?
What codec are you exporting from FC? ProRes422, DV, H264?
Open the FC QT in QT and apple+I to see this.
What does it say for audio?

Soundtrack Pro errors/crashes galore

Hey
I'm having a lot of trouble to make a final mix of a little sideproject using Soundtrack Pro.
If I try to open my omf (which opens just fine in Logic according to a friend) then I get the following error:
An Unexpected Problem
CNSExceptionWrapper
type = 16777216, error = 1886547263, message = error: Failed to open or create audio file for writing.
My first idea was to make a new omf, but that didn't change a thing.
The second solution was to use the Send to function from Final Cut Pro (as I did the video-editing on the same station).
But when I use the Send to-function then Soundtrack Pro freezes while drawing the waveforms.
(or so it seems)
Anybody has any idea what might be the problem but above all a possible solution?
Thanks in advance.
(PS the project is about 40min with 12 audio track, so not that special)

My friend, I've had nothing less than heartache using this application. I'm currently speaking with the Applecare pro support people who aren't even able to keep track of the Soundtrack Pro crashing problem that I've been having (Case ID #17591223)
I can't use the application more than 5 minutes before it crashes. It stops responding to everything, the color wheel shows, then it blanks out to the desktop on its own. It then produces a crash report which several I've sent to apple.
The Applecare Pro support reps which you call and speak to for help with Soundtrack Pro are lazy, have bad attitudes, and seem nearly incompetent. I was promised a callback from one of their reps stating he would research my crash log(s) on 9/21/10 and I never heard back from him. I had to call in again and spoke to another rep in the (tier 2 support) who stated he would then take ownership. I'm hoping that I'll get a callback from the rep.
This AppleCare support is garbage and I forbid you to pay for it as the service is HORRIBLE, along with the application (Soundtrack Pro.)
My project is on a portable firewire drive and I've got 4GB of ram. The application is almost unusable. The rep that I spoke to informed me that he himself does not think highly of Soundtrack Pro and uses Logic instead. I told him I didn't have $500+ sitting around to buy anything more.
DO NOT waste your money on additional ram as it does NOT matter. The program is buggy garbage and the tech support for it is also garbage.

Final Cut Pro - Motion and Soundtrack Pro

Hi there people, I have some serious issues, I am using Final Cut Pro, which works fine but I did some updates from apple and now Motion and Soundtrack Pro don't work, I try opening the applications and It pops up with asking me to enter to serial number but when I enter the serials it states it's invalid!
I tried going in to the MacHD then getting rid of the ID for Final Cut Pro but it does not seem to work.
Firstly is anyone having these issues and secondly does anyone have a fix, I called Apple and they had no answers!
Please help!
GloriousGoat!

I'll bet you installed prokit6-- that seems to be a big no no with some machines-os combinations. Search the forum for fixes/downgrades.
In the future, try not to be a bleeding edge first user of updates. Wait a while and see what sort of issues arise.

Soundtrack Pro doesn't work. When I open it, i can only hear a heartbeat ticking sound over and over again.

Soundtrack pro won't even open

I haven't been using Soundtrack Pro 3 for a while, and now when I needed to use it, it wouldn't even start.
All I get is a dock icon and the startup window for a very short moment, quicker than a blink of an eye. No error message or anything. It just doesn't open. Before it has worked fine and my system should run it perfectly.
Booting the computer or logging out or reinstalling SP didn't help.
I'm having and iMac with Intel Core i7 and Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

There are a number of system cache and temporary files that do not get completely purged until you turn off the Mac. During a restart, power is still supplied to all the hardware components (RAM, HDD, Graphics cards... etc), so problem files can still hang around, or harware compoments (which can also cause problems) are still powered up and not reset by a restart.
For example - A customer called complaing that the fans in his mac were running full speed and would not stop. I told him to shut down the mac, but he only restarted it, and the fans stayed at full speed. I told him he needed to actually shut down/power off the mac, wait a couple seconds, then start up the mac. That fixed the fan problem, and he was happy.
There are also those rare occations when even shutting down the mac does not reset components, as even with the mac shut down, there is still power to the system. In that case, the Mac has to be physically unplugged from the power outlet, and left to sit unplugged for several seconds.
Another. let techy way to delete/reset your prreferences is to use a great free utility from Digital Rebelliion:
Preference Manager
Preference Manager allows you to manage preference files for Final Cut Studio, Final Cut Express, Final Cut Pro X, Avid Media Composer and Adobe Premiere Pro for Mac.
Preference files store information about user preferences, window layouts, toolbar placements and launch settings. Sometimes these can become corrupted, causing problems. Preference Manager allows you to trash corrupted preferences and keep backups of working preference files in order to quickly restore your settings.
PM will allow to specify only the STP files or the entire Final Cut Studio or just delete a single file at the application level.
Glad you got things working..

When Opening Soundtrack Pro 2.0.2: Unexpected Error "NSImageCacheException"

For some reason, when I open Soundtrack Pro 2.0.2, the application doesn't completely open. I have access to the File>New>MultrackProject (or Audio File), but when I make my selection, it give me this "An Unexpected Problem" NSImageCacheException Can't Cache Image.
I don't know what image the application is trying to cache but the entire application won't open because of it. I've tried reinstalling software and updates from Apple. Nothing at the moment.
Anyone know something about this?
Thanks in advance.

Delete the plist for the app.
Get digitalrebellion.com 's FCS Maintenance pack and use it to selectively trash the preferences. That usually fixes this sort of issue. If it doesn't, the next step is to use FCS Maintenance Pack to selectively remove STP, then reinstall it. Don't bother deleting/reinstalling the sound files.
Good Luck.

I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen. How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?

I connected an external monitor to my MacBook Pro, but it doesn't open any programs. It Just sits there with a blank screen. How do I get it to open programs and act like a monitor?

Dear Jean:
It sounds like you are trying to get your external monitor to act as the primary viewing screen. For example it would have your Doc, Icons, Etc. In order to make the external monitor the primary screen you have to:
Open System Preferences.
Choose the Displays Icon
There will be several tabs to choose from pick Arrangement
Drag the toolbar to desired display
Let me know if this helps at all!

Hello John...
You may have a Safari third party add on installed that was compatible with the previous version of Safari but not 5.1. Try troubleshooting > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

There seems to be a few bugs with iCloud Mail at times, so send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.
