Q: Final Cut Express 4.0.1 crashes on launch in 10.6.8
Final Cut Express 4.0.1 (been removed with FCS in reinstalled) crashes on launch while loading or looking at all the audio plug ins.
Technical: Macbook pro 8,1 Intel 2.3 GHz Core i5, OS X 10.6.8, 6 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, 380 GB HD (139 GB available), Intel Graphics 3000 video card Final Cut 4.0.1
I have been reading about this for a few days, and please do not ask if it was installed properly or suggest I take it into an Apple Store which is 1500 miles away.
This appears to be something to do with audio files-plugins. I have gone to HD/Library?Plugins and removed the whole folder, but I do not see Sonic Birth in there. I remember years ago I had a similar problem and Apple had me remove a series of theng (after making me install a fresh system (which did not work)
Has anyone ever found anyone who actually has solved this problem?
Has anyone found a database, knowledgebase of things, i.e. audio drivers/plugins/[reference files that conflict with Final Cut Express?
Is there a 3rd party program that creates a log of the launch which might show me Where and When it crashes?
Please do not fill this question up with Me Toos or the generic did you install into an admin or did you install properly. The answer is YES.
I am seeking only information from people who have solved this, know where all the audio plugins and preference files that might conflict are, names, and locations if not in the "Preferences" folder.
Thanks In Advance
