"logic Quit Unexpectedly" Error Msg On Launching Logic Options

[ryanie]

Good afternoon all, I am having some trouble opening logic (6.4.1) on my G4 POWERBOOK. When I try to open logic I get the "Logic quit unexpectedly" Error msg and logic quits before it even opens. I have recently installed Rob Pappins "Blue" AU. Would this be the issue?

I remember I had the same problem when upgraded from panther to tiger but resolved this by doing an archive install.

First thing should be to check the hard drive and repair permissions (Apple drive utility), next one to try Logic without the third party plug-ins, Eventually try with a new preference file for Logic (remove it from its folder and get it back there if it does not change a thing).

It's likely a plug-in is doing its prima dona.

With the above we should have a better picture.

Thanks Lep, I repaired the disc permissions and tried removing it from its folder but that didnt work either, how do I open logic without 3rd party plug-ins?

the easiest way is to place the plugins on your desktop and add one at a time.

Library/ audio/ plugins/components.

Ok so I tried putting the plugins on the desktop.. that didn't work either so i'm a little concerned, this is the error report

I'm thinking this might be a kernel problem? strange that it would effect logic only

[lepetitmartien]

I'd trash the audio midi related preferences and caches… coreAUDIO is seeming to have issues (at last its named here)… btw while you're at it, trash all cache files and restart.

To trash caches, use Onyx or visit all the 3 library folders (system, general and user) and trash everything inside the 3 caches folders, and restart!

If it doesn't work, I'd test the RAM too, time to use Rember (free, uses memtest but can't test all the RAM, it has a GUI) or MemTest (shareware, tests 97% of the RAM in command line).

[ryanie]

I have done all of the above and some extra stuff too and the little bugger still won't open ahhhhhhhhh

It looks like it is crashing in some IO driver. Either the hard disk, audio or MIDI driver. I am not sure what the IOHIDDeviceClass is but I bet it is one of those three. I would recommend, deleting your logic preferences if possible and temporarily removing any external drives or external audio device drivers. Once things are working, start adding the devices back into your system.

Thanks Mr metro , it's sometimes baffling these logs…
