Whenever I open Logic, or change buffer size, a bunch of errors come up like this NSCreateObjectFileImageFromMemory-ZWD3fyDy is damaged and can’t be opened.
The extension at the end changes, but it pops up about 20 - 30 times before it carries on. Very annoying. When I click show in finder, nothing happens.
Started happening once i upgraded to an M1 mac. Tried reinstalling logic but no luck
MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 12.0
With the assistance of Apple support the following ended up fixing the problem.
1) Copy all the files in ...
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
to a temporary folder you have created for the purpose.
2) Delete the contents of the Components folder (but don't delete the folder itself)
3) Restart the Macbook.
4) Start Logic Pro.
5) Quit Logic Pro.
6) Restart the Macbook.
7) Copy the files from the temporary location back into
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components.
8) Start Logic Pro
With a bit of luck no more popup errors.
9) Quit Logic Pro.
10) Restart the Macbook.
11) Start Logic Pro
Confirm there are still no more popups.
Good luck!

I haven't really had a chance to troubleshoot yet. I just tried opening it normally. It's probably one of the plugins that doesn't work with M1's at all.
From what I've read, opening Logic in Rosetta is unecessary...the plugins that need it will run in bridged (to Rosetta) mode.
You've been able to actually start a session tho?
Hey, No, it's still doing it. So it's completely stopping responding for you? Are you opening logic in Rosetta mode? Might be a plug-in that doesn't work on M1.
I don't know if it made any difference but I also started my macbook up in safe mode before starting in normal mode and carrying out the above procedure. I understand a 'Safe Mode' startup can cure some ills.
For a M1 Mac here is the procedure ...

I don't know if this contributed to fixing the problem or not - mentioning it just in case it helps.
Those experiencing this please report.
Hey, did you ever figure out the cause of that error? I too just bought a M1 Mac and got the same error towards the end of Logic's initial plugin scan. I haven't been able to get past the splash screen; Logic stops responding while "Updating information about Audio Unit plug-ins...."
Thanks.
I have the exact same problem with Logic .... does anyone know how to fix it?
I'm running a MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021 - Chip Apple M1 Max).
It seems like a bug in macos.
Tried this - still happening but seems to be less pop ups, 2 or 3, better than before at least. Have reported to the logic feedback link. thanks!
